Actually... the SCC, a division of Concord is responsible for regulating and monitoring all trade transactions that take place on space stations. It has agents on all stations that record the transactions and they also offer courier and escrow services to make trade smooth. This includes all transactions for us and all transactions for the npc corporations. To think that Concord does not have a say in what transpires on space stations owned by the factions or various npc corporations is a farce.

While I do not agree with the thread starter's ideas it makes perfect sense that a criminal would be unable to dock in highsec. On the flip side:

You're either wolf or a sheep. If you absolutely must be a sheep you should at least think like a wolf to avoid getting eaten by one.

First off, this is just stupid. A "gamefix" can be a restriction. In this case, your "gamefix" is a restriction. Pilots with a -10 standing will be restricted from docking in HS space. So maybe you can stop the stupid ****ing bullshite in regards to this being a restriction.

Second lets sit down and think of some consequences of this errant nonsense.

First off, once you hit -10 sec status you are not stuck there. You can get it higher and thus allow for docking. So all this restriction would do is result in a the -10 pilot running to a belt shoot a rat, go to the next system and rinse and repeat. Once he is at -9.9 he can dock up again.

Second, previous nerfs to HS ganking can probably be at least partially credited with the creation of CODE. and possibly even miniluv. Here's a bold idea...further "nerfs to ganking" might lead to ganking becoming even more and better organized.

As an aside, look at executive compensation (yes, yes, I know RL example, shame on me, but just bear with me....). Ever since the Great Depression in the U.S. it has come under increasing regulation. Much of it "well intended" to prevent the growth of wealth and income inequality. Problem is, it is now looking like that those very regulations are exacerbating the situation not helping it. So the point is....careful for what you ****ing wish for because you might get it....and in this game it means right in the face with every barrel of anti-matter filled tech II light neutron cannon!

Well...shooting rats is "free" so if you are low in ISK it is an option and it puts ISK in your wallet too.

But a very good point. People who gank will have a way around this, probably many ways some of which we have not even thought of yet.
