God knows why I'm arguing with the brick wall again, but oh well here it goes.
First of all, the 1 harbour per fleet rule doesn't allow smaller fleets to get a harbour. On the contrary, it will cause the so called mega fleets to hold on to their harbour tightly. Unless of course they grow bored, like on AZ, and let go. In that case it completely annihilates the purpose of HAs (ie bringing all you have, numbers, skill, tactics, ...).
I can tell you now that if the current situation does not change, none of the top fleets will bother with HAs anymore. The result will be that nobody will give a flying f**k about HAs, as the entire server will know that the current owners aren't the best fleets and the only reason they have a harbour is because the best fleets don't care.
In the past the fleets that held multiple harbours usually had 1 main harbour they defended as well as possible, while the rest was just for fun. Do you want an opportunity to take a harbour as a smaller fleet? Well there was your opportunity, SDE removed it.
Also, the mega fleets you're talking about worked hard for years to become what they are now. Then you come in whining you can't take a harbour with your 5 month-old fleet. Want to hold a harbour? No problem, work for it and you might get there one day. Want to enjoy HA? Easy, attack a harbour and enjoy. You can't expect your fleet to be a HA force a couple of months after it was created, you'll have to live with it.
Coming from a guy in a mini skirt err.. fleet.
Have a nice day.
Oh and recc'd.
