How exactly? I doubt any of the people that log on later in the day are going to start logging in the early hours of the morning as they are getting out of bed and ready for work/school/whatever just because the field will be crap later on. It's also not going to encourage the few people that play then to log on, they already play then. There is no difference for the people that do log on early in the day and it ruins it for everyone else that doesn't.

I advice reading the opening post before making a comment like that, if you don't understand a word then you can lookup it's meaning using google: http://lmgtfy.com/?q=define+accidentally

IMO we should not have field drain, but just merge all these different fields together so that corps have to compete over the same resource. Or at least have one 'Mega' field with the best drops that corps can fight over and have smaller, considerably lackluster, separate fields for each corp.
I think a similar idea to these 'mega' fields has been proposed before, I must say I always did like the idea of this. It would make mining a lot more interesting that's for sure, although now I have images in my mind of IMG, Kruger, DHC, Hessians, a few Corsairs and even a couple JM all sitting in the same mining field together. That wouldn't be awkward at all...
In all seriousness though something like that would be amazing as it would force a lot more interaction between the various mining groups and their customers as well as drawing in pirates and the police, etc. In other words they would be like an activity hub drawing everyone into that central location.
