I have always been vocal about wanting to help indie corps and voted to keep ANON's share low because I think gorging yourself on land is generally a bad thing, but I find a bit of humor in this coming from the CEO of a corp that was in EoN. and one that had held as much land as AE does now. You did not bring up this idea then and your very corp members act like what is going on is somehow different.
Now, I will give you the benefit of the doubt considering I feel your altruism is genuine, but what will happen when the next big push goes on? I think what EoN. and now Renegade have proven is that this game is inherently shallow... outside of broken, boring, and ultra repetitive game modes there is no true expansion. For such a grandiose and expansive game when it comes to weapons and suits and what not, there is little else to enjoy. Maybe PC should burn and be forgotten...
Since you haven't had a conversation with me or know the history of Ahrendee and our intentions and what we are about....I can understand why you find humor in it.
Thing is...we never really wanted as many districts as we had when we were in EoN. We had 6 districts going into EoN and we didn't really want anymore. But they were given them away so we took them. We ended up having battles and taking the rest. If this idea was proposed when we had 28 districts and the community was down for it.....we would have been too. Because again, we wouldn't be given up all of our districts. We would keep a planet and just merc out the rest. Having too many districts isn't all that its cracked up to be unless you have 30 or so players active at random. ISK generation is cool though.
Again....if we did this and a low tiered alliance or corp got too big, then the merc corps would just take them down.
And also, if AE, NS, FA, STB or whoever else that has districts don't want to do this...then it is what it is. I'm not going to belittle or think negative of a corp that doesn't want to do this. I'm just proposing an idea because a lot of people are tired of playing the same people every single day and I think that it's a travesty that there are so many corps not in pc.
