I find it funny that they're insulating new players more, but the fact of the matter is that if you go to null sector (is that what it is called?) you either survive or you don't. It is one of the most stressful mmo's out there if you're not used to it.

What happened to CCP Ghost? I thought he was the NPE guy that would fix everything for everyone and more.
