Jump bridges are great for traveling, but are being used for pvp more so than anything else. So these are some ideas I think would be beneficial.
1) Jump Bridges can be the only module to be placed on a pos.
2) Jump Bridges could be placed 50km off a gate. This will still allow you to bypass several systems, but not have immunity to enemies like you would at a pos.
3) Eliminate them completely? However I would rather they werent. I like the travel idea, I just dont like the fact on how they are actually being used.

Jump Bridges are MEANT to allow you to use them to move and army quickly between locations. They are also MEANT to allow you to use them as transport routes for refueling and trade runs. They were never designed for one purpose or the other.
Fact of the matter is, Jump Bridges are an excellent design for 0.0 warfare. And that's what 0.0 is about. Really, that's the focus and basis of all of EvE: the competition and war between players, corporations, alliances and nations.
Maybe you can cite something I'm overlooking, explaining what you mean by saying that they are being used wrongly. We have cyno fields, we have covert fields, we have gates and jump bridges. ALL of these modes of transportation are uniquely geared towards the movement of hostile forces.
They didn't make cynos' for freighters. Took them almost two years before a jump-capable transport came out. They didn't make jump gates for casual travel or highway work, because they allowed them to be placed within the defensive shielding of a POS.
I may seem harsh, but I think your complaining about a larger issue, which is that POS's, sovreinty, and 0.0 in general uses uncomfortable despairing and uncomfortable game mechanics. I haven't put my fingers down on exactly WHAT the problem is, but between blobs and POS lag, between large groups drowning out small claims, and with moon mining and ratting producing the bulk of generated income, I think something is just not right.

You are absolutely right. People should be allowed to jump into an entry system, warp to a pos-deathstar (safe), then jump to a pos in a friendly station system with no danger whatsoever. 0.0 should be carefree and everyone should be safe from everything. I apologize for trying to bring some risk into a safe 0.0 world.

Edited by: Batolemaeus on 26/07/2008 18:25:07 Since when are Jumpbridges on Deathstars safe?
I have ganked capitals on jumpbridges, i have seen people do hit and runs on them..heck, i have even seen stealthbombers camping jumpbridges and popping unsuspecting travellers.
Not jumpbridges need a change, your combat tactics need one.
