Bump

Look at the armor thread it never got a dev response but look at the changes it caused.

Fun fact:

Out of 250 (I think) districts in Molden Heath, guess how many are online.

200? No

100? No

50? No

25? No

... 10? No


8. 8 districts. Wow. Bring back corp battles.

This is excluding PFC

I do recall though that seemingly everyone forgets the largest complaint of the old systems WAS empty matches. We all know that humans are ultimately risk averse creatures at times.

As someone else pointed out all but 8 districts where self locked today. Imagine 200 battle invites going out today and a similar number of fights only had those 8 show up; changing the methods of which people avoid attacks will not change will never change and as long as people have the ability to not log on you're not going to be able to enforce anything. Massive Fee? Transfer isk... Territory loss? Don't have any. One thing you should take note of players is that the larger players are FAR more intelligent than you give them credit for.

Don't expect it to 'come back' as it cannot co-exist with current system. Thus a new system (arena mode as some folks mentioned here) would be needed and quite frankly we're not in a position for that feature yet. Its on the todo list for sure but its lower on the list versus a crap ton of other things that must get done and quite frankly I cannot be bothered to bring this back now I got a new fire to put out.

Trust me you're entirely on the wrong way going about this, I am surprised they haven't banned you yet for spamming and cross posting. Its a bad way to get on my radar too. 20 threads on the same subject linking to this one not only does it speak of desperation but a general lack of anything but a bias which for the most part I have come to find out is NOT a community voice at all; instead its the will of one person trying to get his agenda no matter how well educated or uneducated on the subject is pressed through and making him to look like the big hero.

I have participated in all of those actions though. We don't need the OLD system back we need a NEW system instead.

I just noticed IWS decided to edit his post, in order to save himself from his aggressive approach. I know I may seem like an ass picking apart everything you say, IWS, and perhaps I am. However I do believe this also deserves a comment.



There are better ways to build up a case? Hang on, let me check something.

Yep, this is the Feedback/requests forum. This is the area designed by CCP for us to contribute feedback, and hence this is where the thread is.

Make it very hard for CCP to deny? Isn't that what I've been doing? Bumping with several others relentlessly for over a week? I'd say that's us making it impeccably hard to deny.

"Shotgunning it from the hip". Nice phrase. Too bad it doesn't make any sense. My OP is calm collected, and provides evidence, data and suggestion with both quantitative (less so my OP, more following comments) and qualitative information. How am I shotgunning this? Because I created a petition? Because I posted a thread in the feedback section? Because I rallied together a portion of the community?

Perhaps you're now realising that what you said I 'should do' is exactly what I have done, and it's lead to you describing me as 'bias', 'uneducated', and claiming that I've insinuated my peers are unintelligent, which I have not. Does my post warrant such an approach?
