I don't mind them getting rid of passive ISK, in PC, but in order to do that properly they need to increase player payout much more then they are proposing.
Don't worry about clone pack prices, districts will end up selling for less then a clone pack.
Here are the real PC numbers you need to worry about.

Example: Team A attacks Team B with 150 clones District to District.
Corp A pays 2-6 mil ISK in clone moving fees.
Average cost of a Proto Suit 200k.
Average Tank and ADS costs 600k and 800k

Team A Wins they kill 80 clones of Team B, and Team B kills 80 clones of Team A's.
So 160 total clone loss.
160 Clones x 200k = +32 mil
Team A losses 5 Tanks 3 ADS = -5.4 mil
Team A loses 80 clones x 200k = -16.4 mil
Clone transport fees Average = -3 mil
Loss total = 24.8mil
160 Clones x 200k = +32 mil
Total profit for the winners = 7.2 mil
Profit Per Player = 450k each

Not much considering the losing team lost 16.4 mil or just over 1 mil per player.

So by playing PC after the proposed chances you have the chance to earn 450k or lose 1 mil. Combine that with their being no reward for holding a district. The desire to play PC is going to greatly diminish.

You don't always have to run PRO gear in PC, nor do you have to fit ADSs and HAVs that cost 6-800k. I think CPM Heinrich Jagerblitzen put things into a much better perspective:

And what stops you from doing this in STD/ADV gear again?


What makes Planetary Conquest competitive:

• Quality of Tactics
• Organized Quantity of Specific Roles
• Quality of Players

The point of Prototype gear is to use it when you can afford it. It wasn't meant to be spammed 24/7 whenever players feel like. The new PC changes will force players to either go broke, or run PRO sparingly, which is good.

So me having similar opinons with someone means I'm blowing them?

With that 'logic', your a sex slave.

Am I the only one who thinks removing all rewards from owning districts negates the purpose of owning a district?

So those Proto suits I see people using in Pubs makes pubs competitive? Wow

You stated that it's the PRO gear that makes PC competitive. Therefore, all of the PRO gear in PUBs makes it competitive as well, as [by your logic].

At least, I think that's what he's getting at.

My opinions are simply that. My opinions. They aren't dictated by someone else, nor have they ever been. Though I really would like an example of how someone dictated my opinion.

You haven't thrown stats and logic that refute any of my arguments. This has been the case not only in this topic, but in just about every argument we've ever had. I think you need to realize that repeating something over and over again doesn't make it a valid argument, nor does it make it true.
