Your statement makes you look like a WP blitzer and a wuss making excuses for destroying neutral turrets, especially on your starting side of the map at the beginning of the game.
You take them out when they become a threat. Otherwise you're just ensuring that they will never be a threat to the enemy either.
I still can't find tanks on the market. All I see are those HAVs.

You take them out when they become a threat. Otherwise you're just ensuring that they will never be a threat to the enemy either. Doesn't matter to me. I've been blitzed too many times because ground forces failed to hold points and enemies overran into turret emplacements that I hadn't destroyed. If you want to help fight a tank an LAV and a forge gun is a good way, or hop into my HAV and man my turrets. Otherwise yeah I cannot take the risk of engaging an enemy HAV on the field not knowing whether or not I will be fired upon by a turret out of nowhere. And dude If I was a WP *****, or even cared about WP at all since I dont run pubs....they have no value to me, I would be a logi not a tanker.
Well I am a dedicated forge gunner, though I'm currently on vacation, and I've never blasted a neutral turret. If you'd said you only play PC I would have left out the WP blitzer part.

Dot the battlefield with sentry turrets that only target infantry. Any vehicle can roll up to it and hack it, but infantry is mowed down by AI when getting near. They all start out neutral.
What would be their fate in a team with mixed meta levels? Say mostly militia and BPOs with a sprinkling of expensive proto wearers. Would the proto users leave them active on their rear flanks, or would they decide it's prudent to destroy them? How would the cheap fits react?
I've lost suits to enemy all types of AI installations. Sure the rail installations only shoot at me after I've shot them, but enemy AI blaster (and maybe missile) installations will target infantry as well without having to be agressed first. They hunt the closest target in their detection arc, infantry or vehicle, as rabidly as rail installations hunt HAVs. Infantry doesn't get a free pass from AI installation abuse as much as you might like everyone to think they do.

I don't play PC.... I find it boring and pointless though the competition level would surely be amazing. No I am a member of a corporation that almost exclusively focuses on FW and advancing the values of the Amarr Empire. As I say WP means nothing in FW and to me personally. What matters to me is ISK destroyed for ISK lost. If I have caused at least 2-3x more ISK destroyed than ISK lost its not a good game for me.
IMO FW is another pub battle as anyone can enter one at any time regardless of the rewards.

And I couldn't care less what you think. I have a higher purpose in New Eden. You don't. Simple as that.
That you assume to know my purpose shows your willingness to display your ignorance which I find hilarious.
