Crime & Punishment

Whelp not sure if troll or not but I suppose giving suggestions doesn’t hurt.

Personally I think that industry really needs a great big revamp, specifically the mining side of industry. To summarize a thread post that I was reading not too long ago it talks about how to improve mining to the point in which it could potentially be enjoyable and require skill to do properly. The ways in which to make mining more “fun” also increase the difficulty of making a botting program that does everything on its own. Some of the things in this forum post include: Visual differentiation of asteroids up close in order to see a better yield, system wide belts (finally), Much larger difference in yields of ore essentially giving more use to the survey scanner along with the visual cues to show the difference (i.e. Instead of having there be 2 better yields of 5% per ore instead have 5%, 50%, 100%, 200%, etc.), remove drone mineral drops and replace them with higher bounties, remove t1 drops and instead have rats drop bpc’s (This one I’m unsure about but it’s mostly going towards only allowing players to acquire minerals through mining), and finally having probing mechanics assist you in finding this higher yield ore.

I could go on and on into specifics of each thing listed however I’d prefer if you are actually interested go to the original post about it here: (https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=672496#post672496)

Secondly not exactly sure if this is directly related to highsec however it does involve more things exploding. Remove the tier system from ships and put them into specialist roles. A fair amount of ships have never seen the light of day since the removal of training skills, and because of this there is a large amount of blobbing the best ship out there. According to the forum post that I will link momentarily BS’s for the most part are fairly balanced and fall into their roles already. (Aside from hybrids where there is a lot of griping still) Frigates are a fairly large part of this issue and a lot of them are unused because they have insufficient midslots/cpu/powergrid, and by eliminating tiers and properly balancing them then there will potentially be a lot more enticing choices for T1 frig roams. Forum post that got me hooked on the idea here: (https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=24582) It’s a little all over the place if you do decide to click the link however so be prepared to go through quite a few posts to get the overall feel of what they want done.

Anyway those are the two biggest things that I’d like you to consider if you do get elected into the CSM Lyris. Good luck with the election either way. Fly safe o/
