Then NQ would have found a totally new definition for the word "persistent".

Nope. If they do a full wipe it shows that NQ is untrustworthy and i don't give money to untrustworthy companies.

Yes actually. I have a limited time budget for games, and this will be the final push I need to try some other games I have had my eyes on.

I won't be starting again, more games out there that don't wipe and have better gameplay than to start rebuilding what has taken me 2 years.  I'm out the day of wipe.

All that is well and good but you are not looking at the cons side of this. It is not just the Rich trying to stay richer. There is content that is currently built by players in the game that is completely unreproducible even with magic blueprints. The game does not benefit from being empty at launch. I promise you this. 

I like this game, but i don't like companies that betray their customers.

If they decide to do a full wipe they brake what they promised - i never would have invested hundreds of euros und hundreds of hours in a so called "persistent" game, that may be wiped. It's a not funny definition of "persistent".

Well, there are many Orgs out there willing to help newbies, mine included. Read about the second M in MMO, this is'nt a solo game.
 
Just to specify:
I'm calibrating MUs on 20 tiles on Alioth, but most of the surface ore still lays around - a newbie in our Org can pick up several millions worth of ore within some days.
He can use org factories, org ships, get's help for flying and any other problems may be solved within the org.

That's your opinion, mine is: there is no valid argument for a wipe, not even a partial, because a wipe does not solve a single problem with the game in the current state, including the next Athena patch.

why not permaban those insulting and trolling kiddies supporting a wipe? Seems like you have'nt yet learned how discussions work in your preschool.

ah, you're getting personal and insulting - not a very adult behaviour, kiddy.

I'm a new player so I'm pretty much the demographic they are wanting to hear from. I think all the established ship showrooms and buildings make the game more lived in and interesting to explore. Wiping all of this content seems pointless when the main issues can be fixed without it. I imagine they will eventually be adding new systems to the game too so this whole idea that wiping content is going to somehow please new players makes zero sense.
 
The only things bothering me as a new player are:
Having 5.5mill talent points when others have 75mill+ with NO CATCHUP MECHANIC so that gap is never going to reduce. Even with a wipe this will still be a problem for newer players down the line. Tier 4/5 mining tiles are mainly taken and it is permanent with little chance of newer players getting their foot in the door. Both of these things can be fixed with new mechanics, without needing a wipe. A wipe will not fix these issues for new players a year down the line if there was a wipe.
