I quit some time ago because the criminal-rogue thing was getting hard to do.

Maybe I can live in null now?

hmm looks like it might be time to make a large investment in force recon ships and T3’s gotta supply the hunters. Hey combat probing might actually become more of a thing.  
hope this inst permanent but the occasional blackout might shake the game up a bit.

Rorq mining was another collossal mistake caused by CCP listening to a vocal minority and not considering the long term impact of players going nuts with them.

Removing local to solve null sec issues is like using a sledge hammer to crack a nut but missing totally and shattering your leg.

I used to live in null as well. Got a Chimera and made about 8 bil my first month. Took the fun out of the game which is why I moved to wormholes to intentionally make less with more risk. Still ended up half quitting though.

And when the novelty of the change wears off and they realise its still a mess of a game they’ll stop playing again.

I love those changes CCP made lately!

But another character of mine lives in provi and is flying with @Cj_Allyn  
And likes it a lot!

His concerns of loosing local as a tool to help with being a FC are legit.

But your answer was just rude. This belongs to /r/EVE but not here. Let’s not discuss like that

I can hop holes in and out… not too worried about that.

Local made null too hard to hit before, it was feast or famine for the little guy coming in for a raid… its viable now for the little guy.

This is a superb change CCP.

The typical nullbear has absolutely no intention whatsoever of willfully engaging in any spontaneous pvp. Yet this type of player has a deep sense of entitlement to the riches found in this space that should be just as dangerous as it is lucrative.

Those that want local can go to low-sec of play in high-sec. It would be more suited to their level of control of the situation.

edit: spelling

Killboard didnt even hear about you, so all your 3-year presence in the game was useless, mr. belt voice 😉 You can play 3 or even 10 years as an NPC, this doesnt mean anything. You dont know the game. At all. Period.
