Pak: You seem to have forgotten which game this is. There is currently one (1) way in which raw resources can be turned into a ship which can then be destroyed, and that isn't done very often.
If you want a consistent credit drain, take away or drastically reduce free storage in stations.
I also agree that once the economy redux is implemented, all assets should be reset. I would go so far as to say that character levels should be reset to a maximum of 4/4/4/4/4 as well, so we essentially start a new game. This all might upset the people for whom VO is more accurately described as a job they can continue into retirement than a game, though, and we wouldn't want them getting their pacemaker wires in a knot.

Moving to Suggestions..
I was discussing what could be... not what is.
Thank you skelby for the commentary - very helpfull.
Point taken MythOpus - thank you also.
The problem with low payouts is that they are not attactive to players aka not "fun" or "sexy". Who really wants to do 1000 credit escorts In any case the problem is not the amount of the payout but rather how to remove that money from the game after you have handed it to the player.

It is a role playing game.
Reset everything and the only roles you will have is a dozen folk playing space quake in b8.
I appreciate that might appeal to the more vociferous trolls, but clearly ( from reading newsposts ) the intention is to make VO a more subtle and sophisticated game appealing to a wide range of players.
Alienating most of the playerbase would not achieve the stated objectives. Forcing everyone to restart would just result in a large number of subscribers going elsewhere. I realise that some folk would take pleasure in that, but it doesn't make for an interesting, or I suspect, well supported game.
Look, I know the crap that goes on on 100. How do I get combat xp? Oh go kill Ecka. The simple point is that nobody ever does. CHRN talks piracy and greifs a few noobs. TGFT trades and does a bit of pvp if we are in the mood. Taking away money or xp isn't going to level the pitch, it will just kill it stone dead.
So, patience. Give the devs a bit of elbow room, I can see where they are going, but it is a lot of work. In the meantime stop looking for pointless quick fixes that alter nothing.

actually restarting would be a good idea if version 2.0 is bug free and has this fancy new economy and shit. why should you people that got rich off exploiting bugs get to keep all your monies? oh yeah i forgot you've been paying to play this game with your 401(k) for like 4 years.

Uh, as self-declared Troll King (sorry genka), I'll be the first to say that in the event of a level or credit reset, I would be out the fucking door. If I want pure combat fun in a graphically quaint universe, UT has VO beat 6 days a week and twice on Sunday.
Oh go kill Ecka. The simple point is that nobody ever does.
As we've been over before, you're never on when anything but bots and rocks are. Hence your character's direction. Not that killing you isn't good XP.
And [CHRN] actually pirates. Of course we don't sweep up every trader there is, but we tend to hunt in packs and do a decent job given the extremely low player to space density in VO.

whoa whoa whoa first off lecter. When have you ever actually trolled? being a huge douche is one thing but being a troll is way different. I have never seen you make an alt and sneak it into other guilds to cause lulz or even post under a fake screen name to generate controversy. Not saying that your flavor of posting isn't hilarious but if you wanna be king troll I wanna see some real trolling.

pey, you just got trolled right there.
false asking someone to prove troll worthiness let alone king troll worthiness is not being trolled.
Using the very means you fail at as a standard? Makes does sense this not.
fluffer i know this will be hard for you given your name but please remove lecters cock from your mouth I can't hear you.
Mr Peytros you have been fined 1 million credits for violation of the verbal conduct code.....
Me intentionally making a stupid claim that draws your fire is pretty much the definition of trolling.
And having cawx in his mouth is the very definition of Fluffer.
