Hey everyone. This is mostly a thread pointed at CCP, so while I appreciate speculation, lulz and jocular I really just want CCP's answers.
Okay so, first a few questions:
1) Logging in was one thing. I'm safe to log in from the character screen. But if I'm hung up on a gate that is obviously changing the game a bit. Why is Jita being throttled when there are only 1900 (totally typical Jita occupancy number) people in it?
2) If I leave Jita to go do stuff other than be bored in station all day what are my chances of getting back in if you constantly have the stargates to Jita closed?
3) Since this is revolving around a war and since Goons got quite a few people during low-occupancy numbers and while the server was not being throttled, who is to say any of the 10 groups that declared war on them are going to be able to even get INTO Jita to pew pew?
Thanks for the responses. The most important thing is that others and myself can play unaffected by this so it's like it wasn't there. I hope that CCP and the rest of the community can understand my reasons for this. Need stuff moved? Push Industries will handle it. Serving highsec, lowsec and nullsec - and we do it faster and more reliably than anyone else. Ingame channel: PUSHX |

If you wanted answers from CCP, you should have petitioned. In before lock.
And no, you being able to play "unaffected by this so it's like it wasn't there" is the most asinine thing I've read in a while. This is a Massively Multiplayer Online Game. You're basically demanding the right to play EVE as a single player game, and that's never going to work.
And oh yeah, here's a fun thought for you while you're thinking about things:
If we get 2600 in Jita, the gates to Jita close. IF we get 2000 in the systems next door to Jita, gates to THOSE systems close. In other words, if we do this right, Nothing gets in NOR out of Jita. |

Last night, I saw a high number of 2025 people in Local in Jita. I had zero issues undocking, leaving Jita, and returning to Jita - did it several times at the height of combat, shuttling lootz and getting better-suited ninja ships in place.
Biggest issue is when tidi got above 40% it became veeeerrry sloooow to do anything. Tell someone you love them today, because life is short. But scream it at them in Esperanto, because life is also terrifying and confusing. |

The American public's reaction to the change was poor and the new cola was a major marketing failure. The subsequent reintroduction of Coke's original formula, re-branded as "Coca-Cola Classic", resulted in a significant gain in sales, leading to speculation that the introduction of the New Coke formula was just a marketing ploy |

While EVE is a MMO and not a single player game it's very easy to remain "unaffected by this so it's like it wasn't there". It could possibly last what, a couple days? Granted Jita is by far the most used trading hub but it shouldn't be a stretch to stay away from the system for a few days. Try out Amarr? If you're stuck in Jita without a jump clone your best chance would be to shuttle out, if you die you'll only lose your implants. |

Well, flat out stating that what the Goons are doing is ******* brilliant pretty much does actually.
CCP likes it when you take advantage of the open ended nature of the game, especially when the gaming media expresses shock at what is going on. When I check troll in the dictionary, it has a photo shopped picture of you standing somewhere in the vicinity of a point.
Also, I can kill you with my brain. |

I would also keep in mind that in the US right now it is around lunch time on a Friday.

Jon Lander told Eurogamer today that CCP approved.
Jita will still be there next week.....
Edit - "I tell you what, it's going to be f***ing brilliant," Jon Lander, senior producer of Eve Online, told Eurogamer this morning. "Absolutely brilliant.
"There was one bug [the 'bookmark escaping agro bug'] in the game that meant that if they do the things they're going to do, they could have escaped the in-game consequences. So we fixed that bug about three weeks ago. And they went, okay.
"They're going to do exactly what you're able to do in the game, and people will have to roll with it. It'll be great.

Hah, yeah. Fit had no guns or anything. I was just so happy to finally take some damage in a ship I really enjoy and don't get to fly much any more now that I'm in Push.
I also enjoyed the convo bomb they threw at me trying to get me to disconnect. Really pro-active gameplay there :P

Fact is that CCP couldn't buy this kind of exposure for the game. This is exactly the sort of stuff that attracts subscribers. If it weren't for exactly this kind of emergent player created content EVE would have went under years ago. Because frankly the game itself just isn't that great. What makes it great is the freedom players have to impact each other.
So of course CCP is loving this, no other MMO can match EVE for player created content. |

What's up Lucy, got a bee in your bonnet? WoW holds your hand until end game, and gives you a cookie whether you win or lose. EVE not only takes your cookie, but laughs at you for bringing one in the first place... |

The simple fact remains: these stories are what have built EVE continued increase in subscription numbers, and they are what has made EVE appear in the mainstream press GÇö not just the gaming media GÇö again and again over the years. The only dips have occurred when they have strayed too far from that gameplay. So of course they think it's brilliant when players create events that will draw even more players to the game and bring them the kind of media reach that other games can only dream ofGǪ and for free.
By the way, you do know that griefing isn't allowed in EVE, right? GÇ£If you're not willing to fight for what you have in GëívGëí you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.GÇ¥

Not only that, but also many tech news sources. Even economist news sources when thats been relevant. WoW, despite its size, has only really done the sooner once (but this was half a decade ago), and never at all the latter.
Other MMOs also basically never get any coverage except for when they happen to launch. EVE is very much unique in this aspect. |

TBH I wonder how much of the forum drama is being created by Goonie alts to prove that they're doing something epic that will influence the lives of everyone and change civilisation as we know it. Jita may be an important system but it is not "the game"; and making it inaccessible for a week will not wreck Eve's economy, at best will cause some jerky movements in the market indexes. If at all.

You don't get much clearer than this:
Quote:Lead game designer Kristoffer Touborg insisted that player-driven events such as Burn Jita are what make Eve Online stand out from other games, and that it's CCP's duty to sit back and watch.
Do you want to play a 15 minute match of Call of Duty that you won't remember the next day, or do you want to spend four months manufacturing 14,000 Thrashers to do this?
It's just so big and awesome - lead game designer Kristoffer Touborg.
"It's what makes Eve a really good game," he said. "Do you want to play a 15 minute match of Call of Duty that you won't remember the next day, or do you want to spend four months manufacturing 14,000 Thrashers to do this? It's just so big and awesome."
Lander added: "We want people to be able to do this. If Goonswarm want to do it, we want them to do it and we want them to have a great time doing it.
"The worst thing we could do is to stop it happening. It would be appalling for the game. It would be against everything we stand for." EVE Ambulation and Avatars as a separate game - see here |

Don't misinterpret keeping systems running smoothly for advocating the actions of one alliance. "Last night I got an email - Jita was at 2100. Time dilation kicked in at 15 per cent. And there were people just watching the sh*t that was going down. It was brilliant. It was absolutely great." Lander added: " We want people to be able to do this. If Goonswarm want to do it, we want them to do it and we want them to have a great time doing it. " The worst thing we could do is to stop it happening. It would be appalling for the game.

Typical Goon idiot. What does the above have to do with the OP? The OP wants to be able to come and go into a system that he/she uses but cannot because the Jita is overcrowded. Please show us where the OP said that CCP should stop the goons from doing what they are doing?
Oh right, the OP is just asking to be able to use a system that they are used to using. |

Logically, how do you want CCP to fulfill the OP's desire? The only reason there is a problem today is because of the Goons in the system. It is already running on a hardened node (Is usually anyway, as far as I know)
So what does the OP want CCP to do? What do you want them to do?
