Actually, my current view is this:

All complaints on this are valid unless there are harbors going without assault. There are.

Let's be realistic. Not everybody can take a harbor. But there aren't a lot of
regulations preventing them from trying, or using the attempt as practice and experience.

So are these fleets that like to complain about not being able to do HA's interested only
in ownership by conquering a really crappy fleet or one who doesn't even bother defending?
Or is there really a desire to improve the fleet via learning by doing? Is it the
experience of doing the HA or is it the glory of ownership, no matter how it happens?

Not possible with current game coding.

The Devs are reworking the entire HA system to fix it.

I doubt they think either...

Does TNF have any thoughts on suggesting this as a short term fix?

no I know its the truth, thats whats so funny about it, SDE hires Devs that cant Dev,
simply amazing

@ devil: The new idiots hired by SDE dont know the code used for the old stuff.
Actually, for that matter, i highly doubt they know any code at all.

Actually devil sadly enough it's the truth.

I find the comment "if they knew how" laughable, where did they find these
guys...seriously

Take SN while it is popular. Peeps are still buying their ships in mass so hello profits.

The idea: More Harbors.

My view: Freaking Do It Already!

Reality: SDE would have done it already if they knew how.
