Something that people need to understand though. When you are looking at the Star Map a district in the "locked" state can still be attacked. Only when a district is under attack is it truly locked.
Unfortunately, the blight of passive ISK is still on PC and will continue to create the desire for corporations to hold as much land as possible and lead land holders to find non-content generating peace more profitable than conflict. At least if profitable district locking can be squished that will be one step closer to getting PC where it needs to be.

Heres a thing to comsider, if the districts isk generation isnlow, why hold land?
Land in PC should be more of a tool to generate ISK by giving you the clones you need to smash other districts. Clone packs are expensive and limited clones give less opportunity to re-up when compared to a wave of clones used in an attack from a district.
If you aren't in PC to be smashing face with other corps then you really shouldn't be in PC anyways.

Would love to get this in for 1.8 but not sure if the teams will have the time - will keep you posted when we know more. I'm just curious, but are any of the cpms in corps with districts? I think there is a cpm in burgezz. I can't remeber. :) Am i correct?
There aren't any CPM in Burgezz.

I know What The French, Caz's corp, has land. Our organization really isn't interested in land. We primarily merc out for PC contracts and also do Faction Warfare contracts as well.

The problem is there is really no way to stop district locking. You can only make it cost ISK at best. Just one of the flaws in the system as long as passive ISK exists.
