Might want to correct this statement, it is not currently 15 mins, it’s 35mins as per previous patch notes, unless you are talking about the future?..

it was from 90 to 35, rewards were unchanged
The original fix had little to do with wealth generation, however one of the key areas that everyone supported from the roundtable was that the timer be removed and the wealth generation reduced and/or moved away from raw isk injection
Well Switft just said it’s 15. Maybe just a typo?
Is that so? Following the discussion here, the ISK generation was seen as way too high and something needed to be done about it. Hence the downtime between the spawns. But most players suggested to just lower the rewards and not limit the content.
Swift’s post is a typo, it’s been 35 since that day in question, checked today and it’s still 35
To be specific, the MER being high tipped a dev off that a respawn timer of 90 mins that was planned for the site was never working, they then fixed that and inadvertently made the ecosystem collapse overnight

Correct! My fingers derped - the correct timer is 35 minutes. Apologies for the typo

A typo from me, Drake (and the patch notes) is correct in that it’s 35

i dont think anything above 15 mins is going to revive poch.
I don’t think anything above 0 is honestly, adding an element of controlability to the sites removes the mad dash that enables loads of content in the region

Let’s not focus too much on the flashpoints, better push CCP to lift the rest of the content into worth doing territory … and fix the LP store.

But why should that be? In WH space for example you cannot even know when Sigs will respawn, except for the rare case that you control and farm every hole of that constellation, which will be a pretty rare scenario for everyone but the largest groups. Still you can have great group content there. I think there is too much focus on these Observators Flashpoints right now, probably because there is not much other rewarding content (?). I personaly would randomize the respawn timer but buff other sigs/anos there so that they are still worth it to run them in between or in addition. (I think an EVE that is less calculable with a lot less predictability for such things as respawns, timers and ever repeating designs would be actually offer a lot more fun)
WH is an entirely different ecosystem to poch, which unfortunately is almost entirely dependent on flashpoints currently as there is (with the exception of one soloable site which doesnt scale) no other solid income content in the area
pretty much everyone in poch supports a 40-50% reduction in payouts (or moving some/all the income from direct isk to redloot, or both) if the obs returns to instant respawn, other sites definitely need a boost to make them viable outside of standings grind locations
We will never know why CCP drop the ball complety on pochven
They still have to fix the trigs shooting people that are positive with them
Is Poochven dead yet?
Are the forums dead yet?
Well, the next FW event chapter will play in Pochven …

Well, it turn out that any time above 0 is useless to save Pochven. There is nothing but bot ishtar fleet in Pochven now. It used to be a very good place for middle scale fleet to fight. And you guys just ruin it.

Well, the question is now which bloc will issue the running permits? 
EDIT: … and shame on you CCP, just giving up to null cry babies and not investing a single man minute to make it a better mechanic … really a shame.
