Okay that really makes no sense ...
I have 4 afterburners in my Badger II
damn what is that !
And already have read that someone used Tracking devices and so on to shoot over 200km ... that really sucks AND WHY ...
using the same SORT of module up to 8times (Battleship) in your ship
OKAY KEEP THIS IN MIND,
it will not help you if you put togehter 1024 Pentium I for doing "THE SAME THING" the system will not be 1024times faster.
Of course if you use all of them for different things it is okay ... BUT THIS IS THAN COMPARED with another module ...
So the same TYP (yes Typ Category) of Module should never stack their values ...
1xAFTERBURNER I is the same as 4xAFTERBURNER ONLY an AFTERBURNER II will help and REPLACE the old one ...
Hope you understand what I mean and how I feel with that !
THX for reading ...

I disagree with you. Take overdrive injectors. they add 20m/s speed which is then affected by your nav skill and so on. Each one adds another 20 m/s. Four afterburners ARE better than one afterburner as this implies a significant extra amount of DRIVE hardware. That stacking affect also comes form the bonuses imparted by your skills. shooting 200k with tracking and ranging gear and using skills to help is using systems to your advantage. It sounds to me like you want to restrict everyone to a basic set up type instead of allowing wild customization. By running 4 basic ODI and 2 AB and adding all of my drive skills i can push a little punisher frigate to over 650m/s and thats basic hardware. However I have almost no cargo space and no slot space for any OTHER equipment at all. So there is the downside. Just a thought.

As for your CPU analogy... have you ever heard of parallel processing? 1024 pentiums would probably far exceed 1024 times the speed if used in parallel and running an application that can use mutiple processors. I thnk you will find that behind your argument is some more fundamental issue you are having trouble with. Maybe a lack of LABS or FACTORIES or anything else to do but fight comp pirates or mine or die fighting human pirates who have been on the server from day one and have hug advantages over everyone else. That might be your problem.

Nothing wrong with stacking.
Stacking modules = specialization. Sure, you can stack 4 afterburners on your ship.
You now have no room for shield boosters. (Unless flying a Blackbird... And of course in this case you can't put 6 sensor links in now.)
Stacking of modules is the EVE equivalent of player classes in other games. Great thing is that you can dock in a station and change your "class".

Yup. Without stacking modules, everyone's ship would be configured the same:
Shield booster
Afterburner
ECM
ECCM
Gyrostabilizer/heatsink
Tracking module
Overdrive
Power Diag

A comparison to DAoC:
I played a Theurgist in DAoC. A caster could either put specialization points in all three of their skill trees, or could focus on one. If a Theurgist put everything into their Earth line, they would be able to cast a spell that would make their group invulnerable to one attack every 6 seconds. Pretty powerful, huh? Except that if you specced that high (EVE equivalent - Putting all of one type of module in your med or lo slots), you gave up nearly all of your offensive capability. No air line damage spells, and the damage variance on baseline cold spells would be so great as to render it useless.
You could also spec for air - Insane amounts of damage, but now no PBT or only the 10 second variant of it, meaning any melee class could kill you easily.
Module stacking is all about specialization, gaining great advantages in one area while giving up all advantages in another.
