Look, I countered your point before you even brought up it up! I must be Nostradamus or something.

What is the incentive for someone (or a group of people) to run security for anyone? You can just make the same amount of money mining/npcing/whatever in highsec and not have to pay a security group off, or worry about being scammed or your security people being sub-par, because it simply isn't necessary in highsec.

The security group can make more money doing activities themselves in highsec as well, so everyone is happy, and nobody encounters any risk at all! A win-win scenario.

Purchasing plex for additional accounts also reduces your bottom line, as you are having to pay/plex for two accounts instead of one. Why worry about that when you can just live in highsec?

Or you could just go mine scordite in hisec instead, make more isk while expending less effort and exposing themselves to less risk.


Or by just moving the mining to hisec and suck down scordite and make more money with less effort and risk.

You've demonstrated your complete lack of understanding of nullsec. Why stop there? Let's now talk about how dangerous you think highsec is, and how incredibly ridiculously impossible it is to prevent from getting ganked in my ice mining Mackinaw even if I'm not completely AFK.

Compare that to nullsec where mining is almost never a solo activity and must be done with coordination and attention paid not only to local but the rats to prevent loss of ships.

I'm sure you'd like us to think that's what you meant, but you must also realize that we're capable of reading.

I have only been playing for a little less than 3 months now. I have been in W-space for 2 of them. The way I see it, Nullsec and W-space are essentially end-game content or advanced/hard mode. There is no showing up of people in local while in W-space so if null-sec is suppose to be more difficult than W-space, the local chat should operate the same. Null-sec means no security or negative security. What that really means is that it is lawless. Civilization has not ventured that far out to establish a communications network for everyone. I would also like to point out that I myself have not been to nullsec. I am going based off what I have heard with some logic and reasoning. If miners are worried about being ganked while mining scordite in nullsec, then they shouldn't even be there. They need to go back to high and low-sec to learn advance survivial tactics.

Nullsec and WHs aren't working by the same rules, stop being numbnuts.

The statistics support my assertions. Feel free to go back and check them yourself.


How can I deny this? Easy. If I don't want to be ganked in highsec, I can prevent it 100% of the time if I use my brain. I can even keep from losing my ship if I leave my computer for hours at a time with my ship in the belt. You cannot do this in nullsec, period.

You mean the parts that make W-space local incompatible with nullsec mechanics? Makes perfect sense to those of us that actually live in nullsec and understand it, but the rest of you seem unwilling to accept the facts of the matter.

Sigh. I know perfectly well exaclty how wormholes work, you seem to be severely underestimating the impact the differences between WHs and nullsec will have.


As opposed to catering to people who wants nullsec to become even further depopulated than it already is?

Gee, let me think about that for a second.

Where did I say anything about code?


How we protect ourselves?

With w-space local in nullsec, you. can't. protect. yourself. without. severely. diminishing. profits.

At that point it makes no sense to stay in nullsec at all, instead we'd all head to highsec and run missions, do incursions, or mine there.

For LESS risk and MORE profit than I would otherwise have if I stayed in nullsec.
How many times and how many different ways do we have to say it before you realize what you're proposing is utterly idiotic?
