For my own experience, whenever I log there's typically an overwhelming enemy superiority, even if I'm just logging my fighter. You explain to me how I'm supposed to create RP (and no, PvP is not RP when all you get is PvP) when you're consistently invaded and attacked and killed in the only system you can relatively call home. It's like a Navy ship logging on and undocking at Manhattan, and a bunch of Rogues, Outcasts and Hackers log against you, except in this type of scenario, you don't have limitless indies to call upon for aid and/or cannon fodder. What happens? You die. Over. And over. It gets old and eventually kills a persons interest to even appear in that region. I'd very much love to take fights into Texas or New York where there's open space, but when I log on and roughly outnumber me by 3 to 1, I'm just going to log off and not bother doing anything. That's now how you keep the server alive.
Harmony doesn't exist as a solely PvP faction. Yes, it is majority PvP, as it's a Separatist faction at war with the Liberty Navy. However, we should not be forced to leave our own ZoI to be able to do anything except get /1/2 and battle. That's not promoting activity, that's slowly annoying people to the point where they no longer log the region. Eventually we get fed up with it, and defense complexes like Bristol appear to provide a small haven against such.
