1. The Rats in the Game are so limited so other players (even people in my own corp) are killing off my Rats because there are too less Rats on the Field.
This has been a problem since the start, it does get better as people spread but yea, it does need some kind of scaling so that they respawn faster when it gets busier

Indeed!
I played PO on release and played eve every now and then for years. Re-subbed purly on the basis of an increase in players.
I think this is the only 'second wind' PO is going to get until Devs are happy enough to put themselves in the spotlight a bit more so I'm really hoping it will gain momentum.
Trying to answer as many questions as I can in the various channels, when I first started PO a lot of people really helped with that so its the only thing I can do to help in return. I do have my own opinions though which some will disagree with =]
Also really excited after reading the dev blog on up coming changes too!
theoretically extended sub time IS extra EP. If you calculate each month you pay for is like paying for an amount of EP.
When CIR first started out we basically did a mixture of everything, farming, mining, harvesting, assigments..
Of course you want to specialise your characters skills if you prefer industry but you can do a lot of the basic stuff with light bots.
Getting loot, standings and equipment helps learn the ropes, have fun and provide some needed resources to get you going.
Mining and harvesting ops do need some kind of protection from roaming bots so its worth doing everything so that everyone knows whats going on or can be pressed into any role thats needed when others arnt on line.

while this is all going on I dont see there to be much point in any serious pvp campaigns or activities.
The only thing us older players can do to help is log off, or at least dont log in all your accounts.
We've had many months of enjoyment before and we arnt going to miss anything if we just leave it alone for a few days and let the newer players explore.
heh, yea I posted that with my alt xD
Personally I really have no problems with MT.
MT have brought to life a few of my favorite games and I'm more than willing to treat myself to a few nice items.
My favorite shooter is APB and thats been resurected out of the ashes due to MT, lotro was my favorite RPG mmo and thats benefited hugly!
So long as the shop and the items you can buy are in good taste! a reasonable price and purly optional.
What CCP have done is prostitute themselves from the outset when they really didn't need to, if a game is suffering and needs an item shop support, fair enough, but to throw one in just to squeeze your customers is wrong.
I'd actually support an item shop in PO, customised paint jobs on robots or outposts, guns which look different or have different sound / lighting effects or corp logo's on bots.. these things would be awesome! Especially if you could grind in-game money to help pay for them.
Sad thing is, if Eve would have put vanity items in which effects their ships.. and not the new avatars, it would be a huge success.
mmorpg.com is probably PO's biggest friend.
What I dont get is why they dont exploit it more?...
The reason I originally got into this game, back when it peaked was because of an article on mmorpg.com.
thats it!.. no ad's.. an article.
So why doesnt PO try have more articles published?.. look at Eve, on mmorpg.com there are tons and tons of articles always appearing about the smallest of things, so it cant be hard.. Get some interviews done, make some press releases or something..
Or is the toaster really that much more important?
Sorry but my friends and I (who between us have 10 accounts) would love to come back.. but we really wont until there is a bit more effort otherwise our time and money feels like it would be squandered.
Advertising is about market awareness, your never going to have a thriving population if the large majority of the market doesn't even know that you exist !
I have the same feeling about this product as I do Vanguard SOH and seriously, you do NOT want to be following SOE's lead.
