But I would like to hear more first from players about how this could be tweaked first, I really want Positive Feedback on this and Ideas and Tweaks how this could be done.
Just like in real life a POB is like a General Store, they want to provide a Service to the Public. so in RP Just like real life a POB Business wants to make money to help cover Taxes, Contracts and other Fees (They have to raise Prices of Items they sell).
Bases really Never make any Money
Please remember the base never makes anything as it is for everyone using their base, they mine they drop off ore and log on and Buy the ore back when there is no one to mine for them. the point is that the base never makes anything (Zero Profit) that's so not right!
by doing it the way I'm talking about they would raise the cost per 5k load maybe 1 to 2 million per load above Miners cost as a storage fee. Now remember some bases have to pay out around 1.2Billion per year for 2 Faction Contracts just in finances alone to have permission to keep the base there Unharmed, That doesn't even scratch what it cost to keep the base up and any other fees. and a base bringing in Money would sure help some of those expenses.
Closing Comment
I don't think that people that do not run POB's really know how much running a POB cost, and really the endless time involved in Building and keeping it up and General day to day operational Cost and endless time to operate. (So the Deck is already stacked against them before they even deploy it) So I think a lot of these NON POB players people only see is Oh I plant a free base anywhere I want, and they don't know about all the charges and fees listed above.
Everyone Please help to develop this Idea! or at least Please only give Constructive Criticism if nothing else. POB's need this, to be able to survive in today's Strife!
