While I certainly understand your frustration, you may find this post by CCP Chronotis interesting (starting from the second paragraph).

We don't expect you to understand our frustration or even care about it, because we have a pretty good idea that you DON'T, and that it takes mass riots and us causing you bad press to even engage in lag issues BECAUSE THAT IS WHAT HAS HAPPENED!

We EXPECT you to effing DO SOMETHING about it! We're customers, get it? Our dollars (or Euros) feed your children. We don't HAVE to continue to GIVE you those dollars. We expect that this fact should induce SOME sense of urgency?

I don't give a flying crap if the NC/Russian blobs want to beat each other over the heads. The more they kill each other the better, I say.

What I DO expect is that a system that I am in which is dozens of jumps away from all that TO NOT BE AFFECTED. And if you want to try to GUILT them into reporting their fights so "innocent 3rd parties" aren't affected, you think THAT will motivate them? Also, how the hell are we supposed to predict where fights happen anyway?

If that is your attitude, I'm going to start requesting reinforcement for every system I think I may want to visit each and every day and see how you deal with that.

Reporting systems for fights should have been, AT BEST, a TEMPORARY solution to the problem that should have been fixed by now. Your server cluster should detect load automatically and allocate resources accordingly. Maybe if you'd re-allocate resources from the upcoming Space Barbie ca$h $hop and Twilight Online you could achieve this?
