Anyone try running this by a CSM rep? They might just laugh, but it's worth a shot. If you can convince one that this is bad (I think there's a lot of good arguments in this thread), they might be able to get it looked at. (That's how the CSM system is *supposed* to work, isn't it?)

So why don't you guys just move over to the other Established incursion leaving the griefed open sites here?
Forcing him to also keep those sites open too to prove to CCP its a problem?
But knowing you shield geniuses you'll probably kill this incursion so only 1 is up giving him a much easier job Roll

Did you read what happened in the CSM notes after CCP Soundwave admitted he/CCP broke Incursions? They actually cheered it onStraight
CSM is against Incursions. CSM is for spacerich NULL/lo/WH alliances wehave no representation

Erm, it's worth noting that the rest of that sentence is "...since they were relatively risk-free ISK". A lot of people held that view at the time. I don't see anything in that text that screams "We hate Incursions."

But eh, I only occasionally dabble in Incursions, so I'll let you regulars handle it. Just wanted to make sure all avenues were being considered.

ppl are saying that deleting a noob toon with a low sec status and re-rolling another is an exploit ..... why not just create a TRIAL account ... gank with that and then let the trial expire ?? thats not an exploit
And before ppl reply with "1 trial wont be enough" a HQ site takes 40-50 pilots .... thats 40-50 trial toons .... it would only take 10 per site to eliminate this problem , even if you have to put those trial toons in cheap frigs
Plus ccp might actualy notice that every day or so 40-50 trials are going flashy red then being dumped
If ppl put as much effort into out-thinking this guy as they put into complaining , the problem would be solved by now

As the sites’ mechanic requires them to be vacated for 5 minutes (guessing)to allow them to despawn it wouldn’t matter if we had 300 gank alts in system as soon as you think the site has been cleared of the pest and warp away he can simply warp in another and still hold the site.

THIS MECHANIC IS BROKEN AS THERE IS NO COUNTER TO IT.

Things that keep me up at night;  Why do we use a voice communication device to send telegraphs? Moore's Law should state, Once you have paid off the last PC upgrade you will need another.

additional thought:

Simply changing the spawn trigger to despawn the site when it gets paid out and allow others to spawn by that same trigger would alleviate the problem.

It should also be noted that it doesn’t require a noob ship this can be done by using a fully trained toon impossible to gank in highsec and be just as effective so again ganking them is Not an option.

Because HQ sites in high influence are barely playable (15-20% resists and damage drop) and moving to another incursion will take few more hours to grind influence to zero. I.e. in high influence HQ sites are as "profitable" as lvl4 missions making whole activity nearly pointless - not to mention 5+ ships pop series in TCRC sites in 50-100% influence.

P.S. By caring about CSM you support them. Let CCP and null alliances play their useless circlejerk quasi democracy meta-game - alone.

Actually didn't move cause the idea of running 20 jumps to give the pinhead more LUL's was against everyones better judgement.
