As mentioned on Skype, probably the hardest thing to do is to find out some kind of progressive goal for the Nomads to do, and to find it to be motivating. As well as finding players who are a bit more... cooperative. Wild or otherwise.
I have been tampering with the idea of providing nomads a JH generator per month, allowing them to spawn JHs between Iota and the randomized exit point, dual-extending the ZOI between those areas. The JH would be accessible only by all ships except for transports. This could be interesting as with regular JH Generator events, the nomad indie ID ZOI would be extended to said system. It might, in such cases, allow for a boost in nomad activity.

That reminds me of the awesome idea of giving nomad/k'hara and wilds the ability to do those scary sound effects you use in events, something I think everyone would love to see

Buuuuuuuuuuut isn't not good the 4 K'Hara| gates to house spaces in Iota?
Those gates blew up the moment the PoB Plugin was dropped at one point. They're not there anymore and quite frankly I'm not even sure do I miss them. Sure, they were nice shortcuts but they were one-way.
This monthly jumphole would be a sort of a replacement in that case. It was already decided to respawn one of those jumpgates to Inverness.
