Topic: The ultimate solution to fix power projection, open stations, and zerg
1 Corporation is only allowed to own 1 Beta Station.
There is multiple examples of in this games history where corporations have owned multiple islands to block users from access. Jita's biggest pain in the *** forum campaign is Open stations on Beta. Well this can do this.
First, by only allowing corporations the ability to own 1 station, you centralize corporations. Making them actually do what SAP 2.0 was meant to do. Promote active players participating on 1 island at one station.
Second, it makes the station Open! Attacking beta owners will only be allowed to take a station to contested! Meaning, you can't lock players out of content! You can't lock them period.
*-The Work Around -* Alt corporations, you can have alt corporations that can take stations, but alt corporations only have a few "alts" in there meaning, those specific people have to be online 24/7 days a week to hit saps. Which can get labor intensive and be taxing to those people making it un attractive.
Third, this can put alliance on 1 island instead of spanning the entire server. Look at whats currently going on:
NSE owns 4 Stations(two different islands), and only use 1.
Ethos owns 3 Stations, and bounce between two on the same island(1 island is a place holder)
DOY owns 2 stations and only use 1.
Fourthly, The stations at 0 will be encouraged for people to actually use the islands and they be open. And if a corporation wants to take a different station on a different island then they have to give up their first station.
Fifthly(I don't know that's a word), You can finally see global trading, instead of: well guys let's just move over to this island this week to do stuff. And it helps keep Zerg alliances from over running everyone in sight on Beta.
This Is pure win win for the community to promote growth and organic play styles instead of mass form ups and server side alliances.
P.S. Stabilities need to be raised to 200 with this, as a reminder for corporations to really commit to moving out.
