Really? Do you REALLY want people attacking your districts when you are at work, or when you are sleeping? Have you thought this through at all?
If you look at PC just as a way of generating matches, then stick to Pub matches. PC is supposed to be about holding territory, but it is unreasonable to have to have a full team on standby 24 hours a day, so instead we have timbers.

The renting of districts and paying protection fees is not what was intended. It has turned into its worst possible form. An extortion machine.
The Council should weigh in on this topic. I'm especially interested in how Kain Spero feels about it, considering he played a part in orchestrating this method of exaction and extortion.
It's apparent that this does not help grow the community and only serves to further the divide between new players and veterans.
I say we freeze all PC assets. Donate any generated income towards NPE programs. Pilot incentives for new players. Providing grants for new players.
As well as provide Dust University with their own space within PC that would forever remain neutral.
There must be rules.
We need The Council.
There is nothing wrong with setting up a protection racket in DUST. That sort of thing is expected in New Eden. EVE Corps rent systems in Sov space all the time. How can you possibly believe that this is a bad thing?
Kain Spero is involved in several inventive business ventures. All that I know of fall within the framework of legitimate business practices.
If DUST University gets their own space within PC, shouldnGÇÖt we at Immortal Guides get our own space too?

The Problems with PC 1.0
1) Location does not matter.
Result is that there are not battle lines, no supply logistics, no secluded pockets for small Corps to create small scale operations.
2) Passive ISK generation.
In EVE owning a system makes it easier to mine, collect bounties on NPC pirates, setup industrial operations. It also allows the setup of infrastructure such as Jump Bridges and Outposts (Stations). Basically owning a system makes it easier to earn ISK, which makes it worth owning the system. There is no passive ISK generation.

Here is an idea. Remove the NPC Clone market.
Once a district produces more clones than the DistrictGÇÖs clone capacity, there should be a maintenance cost per clone per day to keep those surplus clones alive.
Allow Clones to be sold on the open market. (Needs open market.)
Require movement of clones between planets to be done in EVE. (Currier contracts being an option.)

This is where having active members comes in. It's a two sided coin. Not only are your districts vulnerable, but so are everyone else's. If the land itself isn't the value, but the battles themselves that lead to the riches it could work. I think this is a better approach to fill the gap while a better Eve/Dust connection is created.
So you want to turn PC into Pub matches? I fundamentally disagree with that view! The appeal of Planetary Conquest is the ability to hold land. DonGÇÖt write off the premise based on an inadequate implementation. Just because they screwed it up the first time does not mean that it canGÇÖt be done right.
