War HQ and lack of Bounty System are ridiculous. The whole High Sec nerf years ago directly coincided with the drop in the player base. Hell, I used to put money into the game.

I dunno anything about the Great Highsec Nerf. That was all before my time.

I’m just a Highsec gankerette (it’s the only option, and all I know)!

Regardless, I’m having fun.

I think you summed it up, “it’s the only option”. It’s a bit of a proof that you can’t legislate war away. If you try, people do war another way. AND it’s Eve, for heaven’s sake. Our ships have guns and ammo. We’re here to shoot stuff.

I hold the opinion that Highsec is a mistake, and CCP should remove it. Most EvE players seem to agree with this, which explains the general support I enjoy from the community. Everybody wants the Highsec miners to die, because AFK bot grinding under the protection of CONCORD is not what the EvE community wants.

The introduction of Pochven, and the removal of several Highsec systems, was a clear indicator that CCP felt there is too much Highsec in the game.

I would love to see a world without High Sec. Until that day, I have to make sure High Sec is dangerous. I’ve been away too long. Its time. Im glad people are out there suicide ganking and holding down the gates. I really cant wait to find some AFK turd in a distant asteroid mining away in “safety”

But I like when miners are in in high sec. I like when people are running missions.

I just dont like they they are covered in 10 layers of protection.

Its clumsy programming

They may have ten layers of protection, but common sense isn’t one of them.

Thats the truth. The game was much more interesting and populated when they only had 2 layers.

You can’t fix stupid. Especially not with more stupid.

So you can’t put a war HQ in low or null.

That would be cool if your friend in null let you put up a War HQ in their space and for protection the high sec Merc corp could target the null groups enemies . War HQ safe, mercs don’t have to waste time defending a structure, the war goes on .

Why didn’t you fight them if they are literally just in catas ROFL. Fit up nano condors and rekt.
