- **We need a centralized Eve Online Market in the center of the galaxy for trade.**

We use to have a centralized market in the early days of eve. They took this away because how ineffecient servers were. We now have the “reinforced node” mechanism CCP designed to allow thousands of players in a single system. Use it.

- **Remove Eden-Com and Triglavians hold on highsec and give it back to the players.**

Why on god’s earth CCP decided it should be able to interfere this greatly with player trade is beyond me. Neither Edencom or Triglavians should be more unique to the normal rats we kill in belts or Forsaken Hubs. Plus it is a massive pain in the ass to fly though particular systems because of standings with a NPC faction, Which you can’t remain neutral with.

- **Remove Residue and asteroid changes**

Residue is an abhorrent and convoluted system that brings little to the game when Rorquals use Excavators to mine litterally everything better than barges and exhumers. The Asteroid changes suck and nobody likes them also massively impacting markets.
