Also the need for Core 1's to make an attack declaration needs to go the way of the dodo.
Edit: furthermore, making a Core1 POB should require either a large credit investment, some form of staff vetting process to prevent stupidity like mining-field POBs, or both, so there aren't 4 bases in every single system in the game.
Actually we should open up a new thread with the same premise but with less salt. Fact: a ning nong posted something that had no RP attached to it, something that was spammed to a number of bases, and the only difference was the name of the base. The same ning nong within two minutes posted the Attack declaration, and destroyed my base just after the 8 hours. I was in bed or working with no knowledge let alone ability to respond.
No RP means an illegal attack irrespective of an attack declaration was made. To the letter of rules, but certainly not in the spirit of the game.
And let us rip the scab off the festering sore. POB's take a lot of time credits and passion to make. A ship loses a load, it respawns with all its credits, the PoB is gone for good. The nong nong never even afforded me the opportunity to defend my base, let alone get my crew to safety. Read also heaps of gold ore, 10's of millions in the base bank, all because the (deleted) ning nong wanted a giggle. Explain to me how this type of action doesn't demoralise players, and pisses them off to the point of leaving?
