I would say, if you don't like competition, play offline
After discussing with Beul , I understand that this is a step we must consider. Players must decide (again due to critics since the last time when we held a vote...a year ago) if they want competition on n-ice servers or they want to change this.
1. I agree with competition but it is normal that founded industries should be private .
In reality when you build a factory no one comes to make profit on your production without paying.
In reality you don't really "fund" a factory. You either buy shares from that factory and can make a profit of that if the factory makes profit, doesn't matter how it does that. Or you give a loan to that factory and will then receive an interest after some time. Both cases don't care how the factory delivers it's goods. Another thing would be to sponsor a factory and this would be similar to using advertisements. The factory still has the choice which company to use for the goods transport, but will have a preference for you (except if another company is significantly better).
2. Founded cities should be even "more" private since you pay a much larger amount to found it.
It's not because you pay for the foundations of a city that you actually "own" that city. I do agree that it would be more logical that you would get a bonus over other players. Maybe you should automatically start with your company statue in that city when you fund one? This way, if you compete with another company that uses the same trains, you would still get more pax/mail.
3. Stealing goods for example IS NO COMPETITION it is JUST STEALING.... people work hard to build goods networks and lazy players just come and STEAL.
Building a station next to a factory that is already delivering to another company and thus giving that factory a choice who to use for the goods transport is competition. Sending your trains to another company's station taking the goods would be stealing, but this is impossible anyway.
