Its a stupid idea. It will just be used for griefing. thats the reason its not in the game now. It was disscussed during beta and the answer was no.

What if we had houses in space!!! AWSOME!!! Now I know what your thinking, "Man this guy is a nerd" but think about it; a whole town in space!!! Picture this: Your flying along in your ship, then -=*INCOMING TRANSMISSION*=- Hello, you are invited to live in my space colony; you get a room, storage, there are also vendors, and a space mission terminal- would you like to join? You of course, say yes. You proceed to the waypoint he gives you, and start flying around this large space station; seemingly with no entrance. You think you see 2 large sliding panels in the side (Of course the doors to the hangar) and you fly towards them; nothing happens. So you decide to comm the space station and tell them to open the doors. The doors open, and you land- no "land here" buttons, but you accually pull into the hangar, choose a port, bring her in nicen' steady, then land. You open up your ships hatch, climb out onto the loading platform, thenproceed to the space station bridge, where the guy that gave you the transmission is waiting for you. He gives you a keycard for a modest fee, and bing bamb boom your living in space. You unpack some of your stuff, then visit a couple of vendors. Somone sends you a tell, they are in the Dantooine system (convieniently located 2000m away) and they are being ambushed my rebels (or whoever)!!! You quick run down to the hangar and launch and help him.
Now lets face it- it wouldnt be like that, but you gotta admit, it would be cool. Also, have a mining coloney in an asteroid; like in KOTOR II, Peragus. Still with a room that acts like your house, but with a mine. Cool, huh? And as always, I don't like it when people flame.

Its an interesting idea and if it could be implmented in a way that would not clutter space then I would be all for it.
However, at the moment, i would much rather see npc space stations that you can bored, aka npc towns in space.
I would just hate to see space like the areas around the major npc towns.

I like the concept of living in a space station but I think it shouldn't be player controled. Like have players able to rent an appartment and give them access to mission terminals in thier room so that there wouldn't even need to be any common areas so it would be kind of like a pob that you can dock with. the best would be for there to be a full space station with lots of common areas although that may not work as then not everyone could have an appartment.

I'd like an Astroid/Colony that could be boarded. Think of the first intro many of us had to the game, you began on a space station. We have JtL/Space now, why not Stations we can land on?

Then they'd be too small.... I got a better idea, why don't we make large chunks of rock in space, populate them with creatures we can shoot and loot, and then make a space station that is the entry point! We could call them .... hmmm ..... planets yeah that's it, planets or maybe moons... OH well just a thought.

Not a bad idea, although I already have an apartment in space. It's my YT1300, although I can't dock and come over to another POB ship in space, which would also be cool.
My YT1300 is named "Sundog" and the interior is furnished like a house. A house that moves. With big guns.

My YT-1300 is also like an apartment...
Well actually...
Its more like a "Storage Unit" or "Basement" right now
Oh yeah...
With BIG guns...LOL

Not to burst your bubble but I think if we don't get Capital Ships chances are this won't even make the devs look twice. Besides, the capital ships would have places we could put stuff, like crew quarters....right?
(neat idea though... I would just rather get the capital ships before anything else)
