Actually there is nothing enormous about fixing the economy.
Keep it as it is but make flat 80% nerf on everything.
Then take 20 routes that should stay on a bit less then current level.
When you are on it do the same with mining, by just keepig the original mining spots:
Tau-23, Dublin,Omega 7, One of the Sigmas, one gallic spot and keep the rest on 30% of their current profit.
As result of this short work you would get 5-10 activity spots that would fix the activity on the server.
Sadly devs and admins are constantly nerfing piracy and buffing trading in the last 2 versions. I guess you can clearly see the results of this action in the activity.
About Scumbag idea- ok but the Devs are soo far away from the real in-game problems that you have zero chance to have something fixed. Look at the Omicrons revision topic for reference- people want the damn buffer systems removed since 4.85 and we got more buffer systems instead combined with illogical and idiotic idiotic "reversed/fixed" layout that actually changes nothing.
If we keep the things simple and use the concepts that worked for so many years there would be no activity problems.
