Played this game for 3 years and they have deliberately changed the game solely to put money in their pocket. I owned a Sotiyo and another 23 stations, but not a single station had the power to defend against a solo ship needless to say a fleet. So eventually when I refused to pay up the CM's they destroyed my stations, but then set my account for an outrageous monthly subscription that I reversed at my bank.
That got me banned as an account dispute which is fine as far as I am concerned. Tired of being ripped off simply because in order for them to make money you have to rebuy everything they destroy.
