You can always go to WOW where you can kill the same dragon over and over and feel like you didn’t accomplish anything because you get the same drops and it’s the SAME ■■■■■■■ DRAGON.

Or you can do it in Eve, with endless rogue drone spawns.

I mean…at least here it’s not the SAME rogue drones.
It’s not “Billy 17-x-3” the tyrannical drone spawning in some dungeon that you go to to then kill for the “shinny pauldrons of pussydrippings”.
I like dragons. Why would I kill them?

A Dragoon is a musketeer, not the SAME

You might have liked the original doomsday weapons. They were like dragon fire.

I like the idea of a solar-flare type weapon. Maybe has to be used near a star so you get these ships that can’t travel far from the stars…
So ccp will move one ship for returning players? Good news for OP, then. His one ship is a freighter, he could repackage some of his ships and take them with him in cargo. Sell the rest to Kane for 50%
The underlying message from CCP: “Hey, if you’re going to leave, sell everything. While you’re at it, have you seen that PLEX is a long term investment? (please ignore that we make money of PLEX sales, it has absolutely nothing to do with us adding increased risk to asset safety in the game, honest).”

Given that PLEX enters your PLEX Vault immediately and does not interact with Asset Safety unless you expressly choose to take it out of the PLEX Vault… yeah.
I haven’t looked into the topology of T-space beyond the basics. If the constellations are connected there’s a good chance we’ll see the emergence of a minor trade hub sometime in the future; which would give people like the OP other options.
You forgot that peeps first have to get some standings to travel thru gates. Without that its pretty much not a logistic heaven when you cant bring stuff around from trade hub to some other place without it. But maybe if everyone would stay in one only system, it woud work as a hub.

CCP will answer that it’s to the long-term benefit of the fundamentals of the game. And CCP has always been willing to throw any number of players under the bus in order to achieve their next vision of how players should really be playing.
From what I can tell your best options are file a ticket, see if you can get a freighter of the most valuable items moved to a decent location. Other option is to do some googling, find out how to achieve slight positive standings with both Trigs and Edencom (by fighting some Rogue Drones in Pochven), and then see if you can use the positive standings and some of the new filaments or wormholes to ferry your stuff out of Pochven.
Yes, CCP is once again walking down the path of sending significant numbers of players an “FU, we know what’s best for the game, suck it up!” message. Not like that’s anything new. So as usual, learn the options available, and then choose to adapt or walk away. Voting with your feet is pretty much the only message CCP is likely to listen to.

You missed “Ask around for a player who has all this existing, and contract it to them for hauling with collateral” & “Sell pre staged assets to someone wanting to mine in T space and buy new ones”
& the 3rd one for the Op, is the K space WH’s (Something 760’s I think?) that spawn in K space within 3 jumps of where the system used to be connecting to the system. You can tell if one is in system in K space by roaming Triglavian fleets.

There are options,
Taking a random filament and hoping to get into the system you want is unlikely to be successful. What will work is taking a ship with long-range weapons and/or electronic warfare and “tagging” EDENCOM, Rogue Drone, and/or Drifter NPCs. Taking aggressive action against them will give you standing once those NPCs are destroyed whether or not you do so yourself.
Another alternative is to create a public courier contract for your stuff with a reasonable payout and collateral. My alliance operates out of Pochven and we do rates of about 25m for 50k m3 of Cargo.
If you are a solo player or don’t have a Corp why not join a corporation operating out of Pochven? Stribog is recruiting miners and industrialists. We can help you get to 3.0 standing so that you can traverse the region freely.
Or, another idea, contact EVE scout and try to get a wormhole connection to Kino.
Or, sell your assets in Pochven, fire sale everything for Jita -10% and someone will probably buy it.
There’s a whole lot of complaining about things that people can’t control in this thread. You have options, so only worry about those things you can control.

Reductio ad absurdum “Nothing should ever have changed since Eve first appeared, in case someone who left shortly after day 1 of Eve comes back and wants to find his stuff…”
Another one of these types of posts, expect we’ll see more as others return.
Or you know… CCP could do something like have the empires evacuate inactive player assets to a station one system over to not screw them while still allowing things to develop.
