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.
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. |

In other words, if we do this right, Nothing gets in NOR out of Jita. Dude the gates are locked right now and the player count in Jita is fluctuating +/- quite a bit. It just dropped 100 and the gates are still locked. Also since I think we both know that CCP reads the forums and cares about their community, they will respond with answers that are both forward-facing and as fair as possible to all parties.
They did respond, actually:

If it's too long to read, let me sum it up for you:
CCP approves of the Jita burning and thinks you should all harden the **** up. |

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. It would be against everything we stand for."
What part of the above did you not understand, pubbie? CCP is on the side of the Sandbox. |

I like how any time CCP doesn't lockstep fall into line with Carebear demands, they're oooobviously Goon alts or whatever. Because it couldn't possibly be because they have a vision for EVE that doesn't align with Hello Kitty Online: Spaceship Adventures. |
