As you said, it would be a great idea to move the PvP away from gate camping and towards better resources in lowsec.

Right. It's this idea of "We keep the main roads safe.. but don't step off of the roads, as we can't protect you there." The roads - the travel arteries - are the things that the security is most important to, for the society outside of pod pilots. But protecting the rest of the system is hard - so in low sec, that would be the first thing to go. "Keep the King's Roads safe! But protecting the forest got slashed because of budget cuts.." What's in the forest? Lowsec rats, better belts, better exploration sites...

ITT a bunch of people who don't live in low sec talk about low sec.

Now I know how the nulbears feel when the carebears make ridculous suggestions to 0.0.

Okay, well, what is there in lowsec right now that makes it a good place to live other than access to people shooting at me? What can I get there that I can't find in highsec? Because the draw of people shooting at me needs to be compensated for by me making enough extra isk to pay for the ships they will invariably blow up and the opportunity cost of the stuff I have to fit on my ship to not be a lolworthy carebear.
