They have a ridiculous amount of talent and experience in PC, that shouldn't be discounted. It's also not their fault that it's human nature to want to win.
They've beaten corps down to the point that some of them have dissolved altogether. Then big portions of that talent joins some other super corp. So you started with 40 PC corps, then after a few months it's 30, then 20, then 10. Out of that 10 there was only 3 or 4 that could actually compete with each other. Instead of wasting ISK on a dead game mode, they decided to print ISK.
FA had to lock districts to prevent the investment and the work they'd done from getting smashed by attack after attack from AE and NS. Even though they were able to win a large share of matches against them, they had to use cheap tactics to have any chance at making a dent in RA's territory.
There are two corps out there right now capable of beating the donut. Now locking is not profitable so that tactic is out. Any land won will quickly be taken back. It's pointless and anyone that says any different is a fool.

And Bob, dude you are in the wrong section of the forums for rational thought.

It's pointless and anyone that says any different is a fool. It may be difficult to obtain and keep districts but one should not be put off from trying. Trying encourages others to try as well. The more try in a coordinated manner the better the chances are of obtaining a district.
OR you could bore them to death and save your ISK for decent mechanics. ISK is harder to come by these days. Spending billions of ISK on a lost cause while they are making billions a day is probably what they hope we'll all do.
They are already recruiting and trying to poach away talent from those outside the donut. Why give them your corp wallet as well?

you ladys are the worst vag gamers that I have encountered.
Couldn't be further from the truth in my case. I never thought locking was good for the game, it was just necessary. If people hadn't locked PC would have been dead anyway. We just delayed the inevitable.
The one difference may have been if you guys hadn't blue'd up. Maybe there would have been two powers going at it, but it really wouldn't be any different than it is now with 5 or 6 A teams dominating the participation.
Either way the game mode would still be broken. Unless you consider the paltry participation in PC a good thing. Dust is still just as active as it was the day Uprising dropped but there's a substantial drop in the number of players in PC for months. Is that because we are all huge vaglnas or is it evidence of a broken game mode?

I believe that ringers should be sought from a corps respective alliance and then only to fill in the odd gaps. otherwise it should be a 16 v 16 match between corps
I think ringers from outside of alliance should require a fee by the hiring corp to be paid before they can deploy. Call it a clone reprogramming fee.
