Fully agree. 10k towards npc bases feels awfully drastic. Hope if you stick to this, you accept all those bases (and some which you didn't list would also violate these new rules) to change systems because eh.. some greatly resized systems are already cramped without pobs trying to keep 10k distance to all bases and 15k to all JHs.
Do we need to do any RP prior to this move request? What are the distance limitations? Will we be able to move our station(s) outside of the system they are presently in or will we be restricted to the system they are in at present?

Not only that, but if PoBs are literally littered all over the systems because they can't be close to stations, it just means that pirating will get even harder if there is always a PoB in range to escape to.
What should be done first, is to give priority to POB's not able to function anymore because of the patch.
This was not their decision, so relocation to another system of their choice should be done free of costs.
For some of them, it completely destroyed their gameplay.
Decisions of the admins should never victimise the players.

That's a good point, actually. The proximity limitations are going to cover some systems (Omega-3) in a lattice of PoB docking points.

All those moves will be free, if that wasn't clear enough. As for the distances, we're discussing the possibility of lowering them, we should have an answer by tomorrow, but the very idea was not to have bases stacked on top of existing solars like Leicester, Freeport1, or Manhattan currently do.
