I know this is beta and not a finished game but when you look at places like MMORPG.com and they call the game a junkyard simulator it is not good. I have tried to bring people into the game but right from the moment they get the tutorial done they hate it because you go out the door to garbage everywhere and lag like hell, you go to a market place and garbage everywhere and you lag like hell. So most of the people laugh and quit the game as nothing more than a joke.
So why not clean it up and keep the trade hubs clear. I cannot believe adding a timer on how long your ship or stuff stays before impounded or sent to your inventory or even a temp inventory would be that hard to create.
I just think that if more people played, you have more revenue coming in and that helps the game...just my opinion.
All the people I got to stay past the garbage love the game and can't wait for more content, some that are not playing are still paying to burn skills.
