CCP knows it, you know it and even I know it... How to keep more people playing

I have no problem with that you can scam, spy and steal from a corp. If I give someone access to asserts, it means that it can be stolen. One does not have to share access to run a corp, but getting new members is something ALL corps needs to do to survive. So why is it that if I let someone into my corp, they can kill anyone in the corp freely?



Getting players (especially new ones) into corps is really a BIG issue for all of us and especially for CCP. It has been stated many times by CCP, and we all know it's true. I got no issue that corp can pick who they want to join them (Elite pvp'ers and that sort - my a##), but that has nothing to do with the stated issue. The issue is allowing killing corp mates freely. This courses more problems for the game and players, than what are gained.

It makes the game a bit more "dark" and "distrustful"... So does having NPCs randomly spawning, at any time and auto killing you. I don't think this would make EVE a better game. Having it LEGAL to kill corp mates does not make the game better or more enjoyable for by far the most players. This game mechanic has fare more bad consequences, than positive effects.

It's all about game balance. EVE has plenty of areas for "dark and distrustful" nature. But what is most important, a small griefer (useful rarely) tactic (thankfully not much used) or help corp open up for new players, and thereby grow EVE player base?

I don't see what the issue is, mate. Corp AWOXs don't seem to happen that often, and even when it does it's a one-and-done thing for the AWOXer. He can't do any serious damage to the corp or pilots in a single little gank. As it is, there's plenty of reasons listed why this SHOULD be allowed, and none - other than your own laziness and unwillingness to deal with it - against

Corp gankers, AWOXERs, should be fixed. There is really no reason that you should be able to do this without getting concorded.
