One of the options with a three tier distinction would be the ability for a corp to fall back down, but not all the way. For instance:

Low Tier: New, inexperienced, entering PC. Once you leave low tier, you aren't coming back.

Mid Tier: Stable, less competitive. As a corp or alliance, capable of fielding full teams, and winning against other midtier corps. Collapsed top tier alliances and corps might also now be classed here.

Top Tier: Those who would pubstomp any Mid Tier or Low Tier corps or alliances they attacked. Highly competitive, large territory is likely or possible.

If you only have 6 or 7 online at the same time, why would you ever think you can hold a district? You shouldn't even be in PC if you can't field even half a team for any of your battles. I have a lot of respect for S.e.V.e.N. for fielding most of their own players. And I understand needing help every once in a while, it's unavoidable.

But if you need over half a team of fill-ins every battle that should be a hint that you don't belong in PC.

Today MSF attacked dystopian Corp, after beating them the previous night, to find them yet again with only 5 of their Corp members (same as the previous night) and the rest STB. Right before the match started (in the war barge) dystopian member then proceeded to leave and more SVER came to tally a whopping 15 total.

Now I understand we are mercs etc etc BUT what is the purpose of this so called fight club, if corps who want to compete with other corps within their same "class" aren't even fighting the corps that own the district?

If MSF wanted to fight Sver, we would have attacked SVER not dystopian.

Also there are many implications to this system that are troublesome. Let me explain. If a Corp owns a district for X amount of time, clone reserves build up. An attacking Corp, who doesn't own a district, buys a clone pack that contains 100 max clones. If attacking Corp wins their match, they can attack again the next day with another clone pack. So to successfully take the district, the attacking Corp MUST grind down the clones day by day until they are depleted BUT in our example today, BIG CORP comes in defeating attacking corp which causes a lock out for 24 hrs before attacking Corp can launch again. Defending Corp receives 2 reinforcement timers tallying 160 clones at the very least. So you can see how this doesn't go well for the attacking Corp and ultimately becomes a massive waste of resources for them.

So if EON or whoever are going to continue trying to implement a continued "fight club" for the smaller corps, they will need to police what goes on. If an attacking Corp shows proof that a defending Corp is not participating in how this club is suppose to run, "Eon" needs to step in and remove the defending Corp from their district and Can then sell it off once acquired back into their hands.

So, BHD classifies as a sucky Corp, amirite?

Wait a MIN. We were under the impression that the club was a place where unorganized corps could fight other unorganized corps to participate in PC just like the larger more organized corps. This would mean that taking a district, being able to own a district and then defend said district would all be part of the learning process so said corps could grow and then compete against larger corps creating a larger pool of experienced players.

What you are implying is that corps who would like to enter this realm can never own a district as they cannot take one from another fight club Corp. Which also means that corps who have already bought/given a district when fight club was first established can farm isk etc without the fear of lossing a district. How does that Corp learn any sort of risk verse reward? Also on a curious note, how do we know that dystopian isn't being ran by Sver and collecting a paycheck? After all is was Sver we fought the two matches, not dystopian. Seems to me that the idea is literally broken.
