I know we had a dozens of ideas, but here is a new one:

a) REMOVE ALL NPC
b) ADD A WARP-DISRUPTION BUBBLE around the button. If button range is 20 km make bubble 40 km, etc.. Even T3-Ships should not be able to warp out of the bubble.
c) DOUBLE TIMER of buttons
d) ADD STRUCTURE, destroying structure reduces timer by 5 minutes. Put so many structure into a plex that if all structure is destroyed the resulting timer equals to current (old) duration.
e) FIX THIS: https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=1609600

These are the ideas behind this approach:
- Bubble will add some risk, even with a nano-ship you might get unluckily catched in the bubble. Furthermore, bubble works for both offenders and defenders.
- Since there are no plexes you can run plex even with stupid cheap non-sense ship.
- However, if you want it fast you have to put some guns on your ship to kill the structure. So there is an incentive to bring a real ship.
- Fixing the sneak-in make it more scary for both sides if enemy is in system but not on scan or grid. This adds some thrill.

No bubbles in losec.

Minnies are the reason so many farmers picked their militia. Minnies made this landscape as they like to proudly brag, deal with it. Bar a few people, no one on the Amarr side gives a **** about plexing anymore. We got a system to live in, that will do nicely.

Amarr are here for the pvp, don't need to flip systems to pvp. The Minnie No Gun Rifter Club will very soon run out of Amarr system to farm and Amarr will no longer flip back systems for them to farm anew.

Don't ask about Italics, just tilt your head.

Why on earth remove the NPCs?
These sites are supposed to represent a military site of some strategic importance, hence the NPC's that guard it. Removing them would be a stupid idea imo.

In all seriousness the only way to stop the farming is to remove the LP reward completley.
CCP should say if you want LP go away to high sec and run missions leave the FW to people want to fight it.
What looked like a good idea on paper seems to have been abused by leeches and FW would proberly be better off without them.

Oh he's probably not complaining about you Amarr.. You guys don't do anything when it comes to plexing. For the last 2 months Minmatar have openly been telling all their farmers in Militia chat to go to Caldari space and farm being you Amarr wont fight back. . As a result Caldari space is filled with 2 week old Minmatar noob alts farming plexes so we have to deal all the farmers that would likely be in your space as well as the moron farmers still in Gal Militia.

Caldari has started returning the favor by telling all our 2 week old farmer alts about all those open plexes deep down in Metropolls.. Now suddenly Minmatar guys whine on forums about 2 week old plexing alts. Irony at it's best and pay back is a .... but this is only the beginning.. Lol
