High Sec PvP:
Do not ban it- just make it logical.
2)Griefers:
Do not ban it- just make web sites, such as “zkill”, illegal to publish kills- unless player gives you the permission to do so( one time “OK” and he/she is in it till the bitter end, but if “no” is given then that player cant be part of any such site.
3)Bots
Trading/fighting/mining/flying/mission/scanning/etc
I have seen all these bots in use.
I heard people bragging they cant be touched.
I see Jita bots in and outside the station.
Your game is NOT player driven as long you are allowing bots to play.
I mean- eve is not player driven anyway, sooooooo.
Missions
They are boring.
Abyss
Too much of risk versus lame rewards.
Exploration
I did not do it in a long time so I cant say if anything has changed, BUT- if I recall correctly you can get about 60-100 mil per hour if you have high SP char. Meaning it is SP locked. Meaning it is not Newb friendly.
Industry
If you make this right you would get 20k of germans ALONE.
Not to mention countless engineers around the world.
As it is- it is just not worth your time or money.
Trading
It is just broken. So many things are sold for loss, just like industry.
BUT MOST OF ALL
90% of gameplay is just boring.
wait here, scan that, go there, tackle that, kill some random dude that has nothing in the cargo…
Now imagine this:
NPC rats get together and start to attack system after system- making their way towards Jita, screaming how they will destroy the heart of all evil, the monster of greed and injustice.
And players will either unite against the attackers- or watch Jita burn.
As NPC go, system after system, they are destroying stations, moon hardware, especially aiming at points of power…
Damn, I would love to see the world burn.
watching all that richness go up in flames.
All little hiding spots of all the little COE and Directors of corporations…go bye bye.
Unless players unite against the enemy…
Unless players unite against the rats on mining sites that are ever more aggressive…
Or whole space burns.

CCP basically needs to bring logic, talent and balls into play.
And those are three things they do not have.
China has them around the neck and balls.
Or at least they say so…
Not everyone with multiple Omegas is multiboxing all the time. With me its only maybe 10% of the time. But you speak as though every multiple account person was multiboxing 100% of the time.
Also, some have multiple accounts so they can live a different ‘life’ in Eve, and may never concurrently log in. For example I created my new Omega specifically to follow a completely different path to this account.
You can do it.
Hell I am doing it. But the thing is it is just- boring.
Take small ship, Kestrel, fit it with cloak and minimize the warp time- it has to be under 2 sec.
Aim for the victim, wait for attackers to almost kill their pray and warp to it just before it blow up.
You need to immediately jump away so you wont have time for picking your loot, just auto open the cargo and press loot all.
with a lot of luck cargo will get filled with valuable stuff.
I cant tell you the joy of listening to carebears that are asking for “their loot” back, lol.
Happy stealing.
Ah, and you need to have insta- warp points AND 150+km save points away from the gate/station where you will be cloacked and hiding.
Just dont think you will have a lot of luck when the bots are near( Jita and Jita gates, especially Perimeter, for example)
Your points are valid, however- I am talking from my perspective and that is telling me that I regularly see same people- and all of them are multi boxing.
well, how about this- You take some of your stuff go to some random newbie and give it to him/her.
Do not say anything, do not do anything. Just jettison it, turn around and start leaving.
The best thing to do in my opinion would be to make all systems security levels based on the amount of ISK the station holders are making and the number of ships and pods killed over a month.
Then raise all systems with high incomes and/or few kills and lower those with little income and/or many kills.
This way safe space becomes highsec and dangerous space becomes lo-sec/null.
This keeps the game more dynamic. Possibly have permanent high sec areas around Jita, Amarr, ect the main systems for each region but other than that make the game change every month, not massive increments but slowly like 0.1 gain/decline a month.
Only those that have an active Omega account can post on the forums.
And before people like Drac (who only has an alpha and doesn’t play anymore) starts squaking “what about the alpha noobs!” Please keep in mind that there is a live, in game chat help channel for them. They don’t need a forum to answer their questions.
High sec is high security which means that a capsuleer that commits non-sanctioned aggression will get concorded. But it takes time for concord to respond. So suicide ganks can and do occur in that small window.
High sec is probably more dangerous than any other space because capsuleers become lazy and complacent in making sure they are well defended and fail to gather intel. And to make it worse, other people spread down right lies that it’s “safe” misleading new players into a false expectation of the game and its mechanics.
CCP needs to show goodwill. At the moment its clear to everyone except the really daft that EVE online is treated as a cash cow and isnt being developed with proper care and attention. So how can this become the case? Start by finding a new CEO. They have had the same guy for 20 years man. Its time to move on bro.
That would explain the other thread you started about the ccp ceo. So kicking the ceo would be a show of “goodwill” ? Did you have an evaluation talk with him ?
