Remove capitol invincibility
Title says all
There needs to be something to keep newbs from taking their standings by shooting everything that moves.
Personally, I like the idea of 15 minute temp KOS + exile to Corvus with a big dialog box about what will happen to them if they do that again. One-time only to discourage abuse.

Nitpick: Actually the title doesn't say it all. It should instead say, "Remove Friendly Fire Protection from Capitol Systems". Invincibility implies that nobody can harm them, which is not the case as unfriendlies like me certainly can and do.
Anyway, +1.

Snake7561, these "Title says it all" suggestions that just ask us to discuss are getting kind of annoying. Try expressing exactly what you want to see happen and why.

If we're going to have the restriction, better to have it restricted so that newbs can't tank their standings, rather than magical ship invulnerability

Um, draugath, he did express exactly what he wants to see happen (albeit using the wrong words). It's just not some complex idea that takes a three page essay to express. That doesn't make it a poor idea. K.I.S.S.
Yes, there should probably be some work done in the faction system to help newbs ease into things, but that needs to happen anyway.

Perhaps a reduction in standing loss when less then 1/1/1 with big warning prompts ?
I dont care for the friendly fire myself.
Increasing the beginning standings might also be a help for the newbs.

I think it could be valid to say essentially "the issues surrounding this topic have already been discussed a lot and I don't have anything to add so I'm posting a new thread as a vote on that topic because I can't bring back the old one".
But it's generally better to post some discussion along with your suggestion. Regardless of anything to do with newbies, it's pointless and absurd when two people who have been playing for years are artificially prevented from damaging each other anywhere in the VO universe.

What about... if both players harm each other, just set both in a duel, automatically?
No, duels are ranked. Some people don't like their rankings be affected outside of their direct control.
