I think being the biggest Blob in the game, keeping quiet when you induce "soul crushing lag" on others then creating several threads complaining that something needs to be done to allow your own blob to move around and shoot because you've managed to lag yourselves out with your own fleet is pretty funny.
Perhaps you could create a few more threads for my amusement.

The point is that we all pay money to play this game and CCP has said they have improved their ability to handle these types of fights and they haven't. If people would continue to petition CCP about it, perhaps we can get them to take some sort of action.
The goal is for people in various corps and alliances to band together and file mass petitions.
To the best of my knowledge it's only the NC that brings fleets of a thousand these days. It's only you who needs to mass petition to "fix" the game so it suits your particular playstyle.

First they brought 100 drakes, but they all died for no kills
Then they brought 200 drakes and managed 2 kills before they all died
Tacticians brain stormed and tried 300 drakes, losing them all for 7 kills
After much scratching of heads they came back with 500 drakes which all exploded for 15 kills
Then a guy no one had heard of came up with a brand new idea, 700 drakes. Which all died for 23 kills
7 days of pure planning paid dividends when they came up with the strategy of 800 drakes which managed to destroy 32 before they all died.
So they pulled out all the stops and came in 1000 drakes, lagged themselves out and lost a bunch of supercaps.
Strategists decided that the game must be broken.

Yeah, remember what Geminate was like then? That's pretty much the exact same as it is now. Same systems even. At issue is the game mechanics are heavily in favor of the numbers game. CCP knows the limitations of their servers. They need to come up with sov mechanics that are more complex than build the biggest fleet you can then throw it at the enemy fleet.
The game is freeform. If you can't think outside "bigger numbers = win" then that's your lookout. There is nothing CCP can ever do to match what you can potentially throw at the server, this isn't CCPs fault - it's yours for being part of the problem when you could easily choose not to be.

Hey fat jesus, you know how many times I have heard people complain about not being a killmail after shooting pos's for hours or days? At least 2. The point is large scale combat in eve is a joke. We got nothing better to play so we are trapped by the few moments when the game works and those moments carry us helplessly but hopefully to another moment of fun.
The greatest scam in Eve is playing Eve hoping that CCP will come up with a solution to a engineering issue that cannot be solved by the greatest minds in human history. I stopped blaming CCP years ago for it. Fighting in lag is reality and always will be, if its not laggy be thankful.
I'd say whatever you were told that convinced you that draeks in their 1000s is a good tactic is a far greater scam. Instead of complaining, you should actually be congratulating CCP for what they have achieved. The ability for hundreds of players to fight in the same system on a single sharded universe is actually quite a technical feat. You complaining all day because you want to scale it to the thousands doesn't actually undermine this no matter how much you wish it does. The stupidity is solely yours, you could easily fly better ships so require less numbers if you were actually any good at the game (like many others do). But you can't, you really are that bad. The only thing you can do is lemming madly into a system and here you are demanding that CCP start rewriting the game to accomodate your "tactic".
