As in all things PVP related, there is always one group pointing out why they lost and why the other side had an unfair advantage.

If a large alliance had control of the entire region of space that spawned all the Pith-A type Invuls in EVE, and that alliance hoarded them all, and only gave them to their pilots for Ops they were active in, we would here screams from the cheap seats of ‘’Pith A-Types are OP and need to be nerfed’’ Not because they are OP but because they are rare and hard to get.

CS boosters are not OP, they are rare and hard to get, and anyone that runs them knows it’s a long train for an expensive and fragile Toon that need a huge amount of protection. The whole point is to field smaller fleets with more staying power, the whole of EVE has been screaming for more fights, and better fights, and then in a complete 180 half of EVE is complaining.

Go figure? Must have been the half that lost.

I found this quote from Fozzie very funny... he obviously never used\tried to use the Nighthwak..

"Yes comrades, battlecruisers are indeed next to get through the tiericide revolution. Let’s face it, they had it coming, as current tier 2 variations perform too well while tier1s are found wanting"

Ok for the off grid boosting problem why not just make a mod to block boosting bonuses if the booster is not on grid. Make the mod use a high/ulitliy slot just like the boosting link mods. But one change is to not have the mod give a visual effect so they don't know which ship is using the mod. If the boosted fleet wants their boost back all they have to do is bring the booster ship on grid. Off grid boosting solved with a defense against it. Oh they ship using the booster blocking mod also has to be on grid. You enter a system in a 6 man fleet,you engage another fleet whom has a pos there and booster sitting in that pos. You see they are using boost for point range and speed. FC has is pilot activate his boosting blocker mod,boost go away. Now if the boosted fleet wants them back all they have to do is warp the booster ship on grid to the fight and boost are back. So simple,so very simple off grid boosting solved.....................
