Moving a Core 3 and Core 4 base to a system where opposing factions would have little chance to contest them, and absolutely no chance to contest them in their infancy isn't fair to them. That is why I voted against the move.
I apologize for intruding but Jax makes a valid argument, I have been playing here for 8 years and was around when the POB system was initiated. It was always a rule of thumb that moving a base core 3 and above was a "No Go" due to the fact that an opposing faction would have little to no chance challenging the POB of which they would have had a chance when it was first established. Allowing this would set a precedent that you can make a POB in a safe system where you can control its growth then move it to a less friendly one.
Again, I apologize for my intrusion but the Admins made the right call here.
