Is this still a thing? It was touched on last fanfest and it hasn't been mentioned since....

Yes it's still a thing on the roadmap and yes it's been mentioned since Fanfest.

First we get drilling platforms which will replace POS for moon mining plus other resource harvesting/processing functions. They have been delayed. Medium stargates to replace POS jump bridges will probably follow shortly after that. Once feature parity is achieved POS can be removed from the game.

I doubt we'll hear a lot more before Fanfest and, to be honest - I'd rather they finish module tiercide and iterate on the existing structures to clean up lose ends like exposing Citadel markets to CREST so we can see them in 3rd party tools. POS are still working fine, I'll be sorry to lose mine. There is no urgency to replace them.

Ahh cool. Yea drilling platforms seem pretty cool and I guess it makes since to change that before jump bridges. I'm kinda happy to see pos's go. I'm surprised there was never structure or pos degradation if not used after x amount of time and wiped from the server. I see a lot of abandened pos's.
