Yup. I am among those players. This was not the only reason causing me to quit but cap and blob proliferation in general was a huge part of it. When I came back to the game after a 2 year break (or around there). I decided to not engage in any NS, cap, large alliance and all that sort of crap. Some of them even want you to multi box / bot for them if you wanna join.
I very much agree with the OP and support everything and anything that would put a dent in this, no matter how minor. Even a very minor step in the right direction such as this is better then nothing.
