Any time developers get to close to a small group of players they will inevitably alter the game to favor those players. Sometimes this will be subtle sometime it will be overt cheating, but it will happen.
Because they are close this small unrepresentative group will start telling the devs “what works” and “what doesn’t” , but what they are really saying is “what works for us”. Future changes therefore end up supporting and reinforcing the tactics, play style, and wishes of that small group of players. This eventually damages the game beyond repair in the mind of pretty much everyone else, and while EVE isn’t there yet it’s well down that road.
What changes u are talking about? Is actually harder for BoB to conquer well defended systems. What tactics u talk about?

Please be specific or u look like a troll.
he was not refering to any group in particular, just a general statement that applies to pretty much all game systems, not just MMOs. It can be a valuable tool having players able to tell you what works and doesn't work as long as you have a good sampling of players that your talking to.
I dont know nothing about this game. Never played it. Dont know anyone who plays it.
I am curious. What happenes if all space is owned by them and you refuse to rent space ?
Well if BoB for example held all of 0.0 sace and they stopped letting everyone else in i can image a big riot in empire. Its not beyond possability to see a empire alliance form and a new war begining. Otherwise id bet the devs make sure it never gets to this anyway and ensures tht if BoB gets too powerfull they would probalby do something to weaken BoB .

They'd fold in a instant. BOB controls 1 region out of about 25+. They maintain political control over the rest but don't occupy the space themselves. So if the suddenly reset standings to everyone they would control very little of EVE space.
