Or put another way - why aren’t there WAY more players in WH space than there is? Why dont ALL people who try WH space stay there? - just simplify the analysis down to the bare basics - people are habitual animals - there are strong common threads here between null and hi whether we like it or not - both horde, live off social content etc.
I think they are not that different, in null sec there is lot of new players like in hisec and that is the best part in null sec because as a new player joining an alliance they learn all the things in the null sec and grow to be part of the team doing many things in null and earning that isk while ratting/mining etc. because they do not have much isk to start with. It is their “only” income for long time and this change is really hurting them and people keep saying “if you dont like this go fking hisec , u pubbie” does not help at all because those new players just wanted to avoid the continuous gank in hisec and learn to play as a team mate in null-sec …

Yes I have heard the people or PVP crowd scream hey get out of highsec or hey go back to it , but the point is to EVE was built on allot of angst it all feeds into the game.
To reiterate for the 100th time in this thread, Null No Local <> WH space. There are vast differences between the two and delayed local is only a tiny fragment of difference.
Players leaving because they don’t want risk is not bad for Eve. Players playing in end game intended areas without risk is bad for Eve. Very distinct difference.

To bad yes [people got organised and started out pacing the people chasing them , protecting each other making life so difficult for others, maybe a unforseen part of the game but one I admire the hell out of EVE for.
Lol this guy is a tit, check his post history and you soon notice he is just a fat little troll. and his zKillboard goes to show his pvp is low ball .solo kills against frigates only when he is flying superior ships…low sec poor pvper that likes to throw ■■■■ at other people on forums while sitting in his room with the curtains closed. fear of going outside and jobless knob jockey looking at time of his kills. I just heard the best joke in the world…and it was listening to you lol.
As compared to what? Sitting on a station for 2 hours waiting for other people, not even in the same mumble room, to sort things only to finally drop into a a tidi where it takes the FC 5 minutes to target the first enemy ship, another minute to scroll through a list of names, and five to lock the target? That’s what most of SOV PVP has become-- right up there with waiting for a dark glitter roid to pop.

the drifters are not going to fix anything. they’re just a punishment for undocking. it pushes players AWAY from interacting.
and blackout, if anything, pushes more towards centralized umbrellas.

They know that already.
The whole point of being deliberately obtuse is that you don’t let petty things like “facts” and “reality” get in the way of shrilly screeching about… whatever it is that’s rustling your jimmies.

Whatever the intended goal of this change, the collateral damage is long term players in small or renter alliances are leaving. This in turn causes those alliances to reconsider their gameplay (domino effect(… These are not risk free afk bos, these are real people that don’t have the resources to put out mulitiple sets of eyes just so a couple of guys can rat or mine. Its sad, I know 200 happy pvp players will call them whiners, or carebears and deride them, But like the guy I quoted, they were real players, paying real money to play the part of the game they enjoyed.

O R L Y.
No ones stopping any of them do stuff on a single character like many of us do, these are poor excuses for not doing it when in fact the issue is not with the game or blackout; as far as im concerned if i can do it - and many others can - then these other people really really DO WANT IT ‘risk free afk’
Grow up
grow a pair
and gtfo of nullsec.

That’s just adding even yet more inane dishonesty .
The argument doesnt go and never went “this is bad because it is absolutely equal to WH space” - so…
and the vast difference is between “delayed” local = effectively and defacto no local: you dont know how many are in system, you dont speak in local, you dont use local, you cant see enemies appearing in local = there is no local and having something that you all had no problem playing with for a decade.
Again: who were supposedly not risking anything before “delayed local” ???
And exactly who needed an even larger and heavier upper hand?
What? The complaint was that you couldnt get a 200 man loki fleet unseen into the largest enemy alliance capital before? So thats why you ruin it for ALL corps of under 2K members?
Jesus guys… just jesus.

“Any playstyle but mine is invalid”.
ganktards being risk-free is a good one.
The issue is with CCP going full retard.
“Just because I’m dumb enough to attempt it - everyone is”.
Ganktards got it and flinging excuses right now.
