Shouldnt matter in HS regarding low sec status players.

If you are either flagged as a criminal or a capsuleer with low sec status, it would be forbidden for friendly citadels anchored in Empire space to harbor you.

Yeah thats not going to happen because both CCP and Cit Builders want burning castles in the sky.

Same rules as usual.

Your capsuleer sec/criminal status is universal across all clones of it.

If you prefer, a Citadel could be declared illegal for harboring a low sec/criminal capsuleer,

However that creates abuse problems, so I wouldnt recommend it.

I mean I dont really see how this changes much if anything. How is preventing them from docking going to stop or hinder ganking?

Or is it just for the satisfaction of pod removal? Even so, respawn in low, grab the stored sec tags and away again.

Or just not even bother and hit from a WH.

you re so wrong.

Science produces theories. Those theories may be wrong, but scientist make theories so as to match reality as much as possible.  
ONCE you have a theory you can PROVE something inside that theory. It does NOT prove that used theory is true - and does not need it to be proven true.

Studies can PROVE causations in any science field. It needs a lot more work than just exhibiting a correlation.

So are you saying that once a study proves a causation, there is no amount of evidence that can overturn that proof?

If this study is correctly done, there won’t. However the premices of the study can be attacked.  
This happens all the time.

A Highsec PvP Focus Group!

I don’t know if our CSM representatives have raised our concerns with any passion. I doubt it; many of them seem highly Null/WH orientated. Perhaps you could at least probe them?

If they have, then CCP have so far remained silent on the issues - as far as we know.

For the gankers, the main issue is the drip-drip assault on our playstyle. Some of us do have wider concerns though, and it’s telling that even these haven’t yet been addressed (wardecs, corp mechanics, for example).

Given CCP’s list of Things-to-Keep-Everyone-Quiet-Logged-in-and-Spending, I genuinely doubt we’ll see movement any time soon. I hope I’m wrong, of course.

I do think the CSM is the first step (even though I’m doubtful about their effectiveness), because - in the likelihood of being stonewalled by CCP - we can at least talk to them (the CSM) with a reasonable chance of a response, even if they too have been stonewalled. Use the existing channels first?

I don’t get the meaning of you sentence.

Let’s say I made a study to test if “cyanide can kill cells”.  
I prepare a correct protocole implying the counting of dead cells after several delays with various samples, and various elements and same controlled environment with only cells etc.

Now I present the result of my experiments, and people do them too.

We all agree that “cyanide can kill cells”.

To you this is not a proof ?

Then he doesn’t prove that cyanide can’t kill cells.

You just said “To you this is not a proof ?”

Now you say “Then he doesn’t prove”.

So which is it. Is it or is it not a proof?
