Up the toll significantly... like 100M or so. Add a single lowsec jump in between, then I say yes! -----------------------------------

Tempted to keep the quote chain going, but I'm just going to say "Oh... Another Atticus thread..."
Oh, and no. Because the profits you make in moving things in freighters between hubs FAR outweigh that 5 mil.

OK, so make it 25 mill and limit entrance to battleship/freighter sized ships only.

Yes, but only if the toll is 100B isk per use with a 50% chance of your ship being torn to bits by the massive amounts of unstable energy the gate uses. Also, travel time should be 1 hour.

1 hour of active clicking mini-game, like a PI extractor startup but instead with the screws that hold your pod together. They'll love it.

Excellent, or maybe something like this, for one hour. If you fail, then your ship falls apart, leaving debris all over the jump lane. You must then pay the 500B cleanup crew fine, or everyone else in the jump lane makes an unpleasant encounter with your wreck, gaining permanent kill rights on you for being irresponsible.

I'd be all for such Hub connecting gates, but they won't happen.
Suicide gankers would lose 80% of their targets.

Suicide gankers hit targets out of the stations. You mean REAL pirates in lowsec would have no targets.

I just moved my installations to lowsec ù three times the output for half the clicks. ùùù ôIf you're not willing to fight for what you have in ≡v≡à you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.ö ù Karath Piki |

Nope, I mean empire based suicide gankers that camp 0.5 and 0.6 systems, scanning everything that flies by.
A super gate connecting Amarr to Jita (and Oursulaert, etc...) would not have much impact on low sec traffic.

Back in 2004 we did have gates that worked as super highways and that created super trade hubs so they where removed. Not that it realy helped :)

I've thought about this idea a few times because of all the commerce in jita, in theory it makes sense because it would be easier to compare prices at all the major hubs, but I'm not sure it wouldn't end giving everyone an easier way to get to jnull ita.
I think it might be better to allow market info from the major trade hubs to be accessible from each hub. So if you are in jita, you can see the market in the other trade hubs like amarr or ours. I think if you were amarr gov you'd want to advertise you wares if you wanted people to come spend isk in your region.

How about a 10 mill isk charge for starting pointless threads?

I have no idea why because as soon as this happens the whole courier industry collapses.

No! We had super gates once didn't work. Nurf Long jumps and add more routes through low-sec. Lets see what would happen to the markets if there was no high-sec routes between empires. I bet the game will get more gritty and trade would spread out.

The gate should only have a 1 in 5 chance to land you in the correct system. The remaining 4 times it should throw you in some 0.0 or lowsec far from empire.
