Rein in Camo Hound availability
LTS subscribers should not get substantive advantages over others. Currently, however, we get the ability to buy the Camo hound from all Corvus stations, whereas normal subscribers only get to buy it in Odia. This is an unfair advantage. My preference in resolving this would be to restrict the Camo Hound to Odia, same as vanilla Hounds, as I feel like having access to Hounds in Sedina and Bractus makes them just a bit too accessible. Hounds felt more special when we had to get them from Odia.
As a former LTS subscriber, you should have just bought 50 of them or so and been done with it. ;)
Although I have mixed feelings with the loss of the large port on the hound.
Otherwise, meh.

How about Corvus stocks the greyhound in every station instead.
so what you're suggesting is "you just committed to pay GS about $100 or more, here's a paint scheme on a one trick pony for you"
most of us only use the hound for going places fast and if we commit to sub for a year then why can't we have a very small bone? The hound has already been neutered, now you want to make it a PITA to even try to have?

Why do you have to behave like you deserve that everything be handed to you on a silver platter, VikingRanger? That just makes everything so boring and bland. Unavailability and difficulty in acquiring something is what makes it more special and valuable.

Thank you for providing ample evidence of why the Hound needs (a) Tri or at least Native KOS requirements attached to it, and (b) to be discontinued as the LTS toy. Give 'em (I should say "us", seeing as how I'm an LTS) some other pretty Hog variant available wherever.
The Hound as LTS toy is as poor a choice as a valk or prom would be. Though if (b) is implemented I suppose whether it's an LTS toy doesn't much matter. What's important is that while it would still be available to LTS players, their characters would finally have to start acting like the pirates that ship was designed for if they wanted to keep flying it.

"How about Corvus stocks the greyhound in every station instead."
That would fix the fairness issue, but as somebody who has played extensively under both models, my experience has been that Greyhounds are more fun when you have to get them from Odia. The way it is now feels too easy, particularly when I'm operating in the Latos/Sedina region.

Just this month I threw another $159.99 at the devs. What I get in exchange for this is the ability to play for two more years at 2/3 the cost a monthly subscriber pays, saving me nearly $80 over that two-year span. Those savings and the reduced bookkeeping that comes with infrequent payments are sufficient reason to buy in bulk. Skins are a nice but unnecessary bonus. Actual gameplay advantages? Totally inappropriate. Beyond whether or not somebody can afford the basic monthly subscription, a person's real-world financial status should not impact gameplay. Period.

That's what I mean though, having it in east/central/west greyspace. Sedina/Odia/Brac
There should be a weaponless small cargohold(under 3cu) light ship that is infiturbo 225m/s that could be used as a taxi. A new EC perhaps? A new EC kill badge along with it?

I think it should cost more out of Odia, like 150k.
I'd like to go a step further and propose limiting any and all versions of it to Odia M-14.
