When you jump into W-space you are within jumping range of the wormhole immediately, so there is no slowboating it back to a gate. If you jump into a bubble on a wormhole and die, your a moron, you should have held your cloak for your session change to go away then jumped back through.
I'm sorry but your perfectly good logic has no place in a thread like this so gtfo plz.

People complaining about bubbles in w-space need to be better informed on game mechanics.
I thought this would be the case... until I lost my cheeta and got podded. I jumped into a WH from hi-sec and into a bubble. I was spamming the jump button but got some kind of session timer. BOOM! BOOM! I was dead and resurrected 1/2 way across the universe.
I know that you're supposed to be able to jump right back out, but for some reason it didn't work for me. I was in jump range, I hadn't performed any actions to gain an aggro timer and it was my first jump into a WH that day.
I'm not gonna whine about it. I just take it as an expensive lesson learned.  It's not like iskies are real money anyway.
You have to wait out the session timer just like a normal gate until you uncloak then you jump back into normal space.

On the one hand, anything goes sounds good. On the other hand, with enough gatecamps, W-space will simply become imitation 0.0.
I've seen neither camps nor undefended hulks in my travels, unfortunately.
Thats because what is happening is that people are scanning out wormholes in populated empire systems then advertising its presence and camping the other side ganking all the curious players who want to take a peek. To avoid the majoiry of that type of stuff just scan out a wh in some remote upopulated empire system and you will be fine.

No. W-space is like 0.0.
That is all.
Kick the pirates in the face, especially when they're stuck in their own bubble, steal their loot, salvage their wrecks, and collapse the wormhole behind you, so they have to pod themselves home, and yell 'how-yarrr-like that!' in the delayed local before you leave.
That is how you deal with the problem.
Exactly. If you get popped at the entrance to a wh by a gank force then just remember what the gankers were flying and get a superior force of implantless alts in cheap t1 fitted insured cruisers and go back and take them out or at least kill what you can and close the wh trapping the pirates in. That should put a damper on the casual pirates enthusiasm. Of course this hinges on empire players working together but at least its doable with no silly game mechanic changes.

While I mostly agree, I wonder what the reasoning is behind not being able to deploy cyno's. You can't deploy cyno's in w-space, right?
What about jumpgates? Not sure if they require sovereignty or not.
Well to me bubbles are nessesary for an active defense force who constantly scans for new wh to effectively police the space and keep out or at least limit the mobility of unwanted aggressors. As far as no cyno type of jumping for cap ships and such its to keep someone from sending in a cov ops then popping a cyno to bypass the wormhole mass limits mechanic. Rp wise it can be explained away as you need the precise coordinates provided by the jump gate netwok to be able to have a cap ship jump to a frigate with a cyno generator and since w-space has no gate network you get no cynos with enough precision to be usable.
