Just one giant doughnut of renter space!? Is this what eve has now become?
There's something seriously wrong here. How can an alliance hold space and yet not live there and then rent it out? Surely the game is about gaining space, and keeping hold of it? The amount of nullsec thats now become rental space is just crazy,

OK OK, some might say, well we are getting more people into nullsec, we are allowing people that couldnt get into nullsec a chance to. OK we will charge them stupidly high prices but meh we dont want that space anyway. and herein lies the problem.

Why arent nullsec alliances exploiting the mining riches, the anomolies etc to make there isk like everyone else has to, instead of being lazy so and so's? Really they should be having mass mining ops, or large anomaly bashing ops instead of being carebears (which ironically they moan about high sec carebears) these are 10x worse. They wont do anything, they cry about their passive moon income being nerf because they simply cannot be bothered to go an actually make isk.

Is this really where eve has gone and going?

I mean yeah live in a region and have a few renters to make that extra income like some alliance do, but look at Northern Associates for instance (N3)

http://evemaps.dotlan.net/alliance/Northern_Associates.

I mean what 10 regions or more just PURELY to rent. Surely it cant be just me that sees something wrong here.


The most profitable business IRL has always been farming people.
When it was called slavery there were uprisings and profits suffered.
They tried indentured servants but that caused issues too.
Finally they tried capitalism and amazingly even though via mortgages, insurance, banking, telecoms, power companies, supermarkets etc etc a ever greater amount of your productive life is spent enriching others people call it freedom.
When you enslave whole countries via invasion you also get problems so puppet governments, 3rd world debt, and the IMF were created to replace colonialism.
As in life so in EVE
It is better to make other people farm ISK for you than to do it yourself.
Welcome to the wonders of capitalism that isn't anything like feudalism/slavery.

Money at its root is a form of rationing. When the richest 85 people have as much wealth as the poorest 3.5 billion (50% of humanity) it is clear where the source of poverty is. http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2014/jan/20/trickle-down-economics-broken-promise-richest-85

Actually people used to fight over and viciously guard their 10/10's too until the GREAT SANCTUM NERF. How about introducing a series of Super Anomaly™ ~ valuable enough to make people want to control that space.

This post says it all.

I have always wondered for years why any EvE player would join or even assist the CFC as by doing so they gain a reputation for incompetence and lack of intelligence. CFC only win by fighting 400 v 50 everyone in EvE knows that. CFC are fighting to gain all null sec moons. CFC leadership don't want to have good fights or fun content for its members or anyone else. They just want to spoon feed the members that its ok to fight 400 v 50 so that their personal isk increases. By helping the CFC you are literally destroying null sec for anyone who lives in it and most especially destroying it for the CFC members who will never know what it is to have a good fight, their future is sitting in 200 man gate camp on a high sec gate waiting several hours for a nube ship to jump in to null by accident. Anyone who doesn't realize that this is the future being fought for really is very stupid.

EvE players are meant to be more intelligent then people who play other games but clearly the very large majority who are either in the CFC or assisting them prove that in fact that although a small minority are in fact very intelligent, the majority have a much lower then average IQ.

Sad little goons. It really is pathetic.

The alliances that hold the sov have worked hard and often had to fight another alliance for that sov. As long as they own it, they should be allowed to use the space however they want, even if it means renting it out. It's just like a real estate business. The people selling a piece of property to you don't necessarily have to be using it (that's probably why they are selling/renting it out in the first place).

The alliance renting out their space makes money, and the renters are able to live in nullsec without being tied down to said alliances. They an move in and do what they need/want to do for as long as they can pay for it. It's a win-win for everyone.

If an alliance doesn't want to rent out their space, they don't have to. Simple.


this is a game btw, just pointing that out. So shall we now put in the eve trailers. "Eve is no longer a sandbox, your game is controlled by others sorry, if you want to go into nullsec, just kiss someones ass, pay stupid amount of isk for even the worse systems, these are thew new microtransactions, oh but we still expect your monthly fee. Play on one server, but remember the players that have been playing for years have control of everything and you wont have the same level playing field as they did when only 3000 ppl ws online"

i mean lets be honest here...whilst we are at it.


Yes this is a game. Thank you for pointing out something that is obvious and has little relevance to the topic at hand.

You are making it sound like CCP is forcing people who want to go to nullsec to have to rent space. This couldn't be further from the truth. Stop pretending that it is because it makes you look really dumb.

Not only that, if people are unhappy with the space they are renting or feel they are paying too much, there are plenty of other alliances to rent from. If an alliance wants to offer renting, they have to make sure their deal stacks up against that of other alliances, otherwise they have no business.

It appears to me you lack a basic understanding of not only how this game works, but how basic economics do.

It's really easy to tell when someone has never left hi-sec.

You copy/pasted that list even though there are entities missing from the "Known Enemies" section. I think you knew this and posted it anyway because you're so mad about Goons.

Some might think that you were a member of one of those missing alliances but I don't think you've ever actually been involved in nullsec.
