Thrust mechanics adjustment request.

Id like to request three items here-

1: please remove the reverse thrust debuff.
This makes absolutely no sense to me; why would using the same thruster systems that make you rotate to move backward suddenly impose a power drain?????


2: have the stationary rotary thrust equal to what you would have at 50% or 100% thrust.



not as important

3
It would be nice to get some sort of buff when someone is at complete stationary (say perhaps a +5 to 10 bonus to all power systems except engine) , somewhat akin to the defense bonus someone gets for accelerating.

    It was put into effect in beta because of people abusing reverse to kite enemies.

    So wait you wanna reward people for being stationary turrets? We have deployable turret spam for that.
    If you are a pickle in a pickle jar you know every pickle's different, sort of, but really they're all just pickles...
    They taste the same.

    I kite enemies all the time, in either direction. Its a good tanking tactic.
    However in this case I find its more annyoing than notwhen your trying to get your big slow cap ship turned around in a small area during a fight.

    why not? I think how fast you go splat would more than make up for it in that regard. I'm more interested just being able to turn like how one should be able to. the idea for some sort of bonus just to throw out there.
