Instead of locking out jita to players why not go in an kick out players that are spaming local all the time. This would lower server load and allow the people that pay for this game the access we want.

I would not have any issues with the spam if the server could handle the load but it clearly can't. This effects the game play for other users and in my view is not fair to us that want to trade.

I know Jita is a high volume system and it is run on it's own sever. But it's getting to the point where you need to decide.

- kick spamers out

or

- Give Jita a second server till the spamers fill it up as well.

Lock Jita local.

Okay trying to get back on topic...

Someone said this isn't a hardware issue but rather an issue with the game software. I will look for the dev post on this when I get on my computer.

Calling not being able to get into a system due to the game not being able to handle the load PVP is just silly. If anything this just prevents PVP by not allowing more pilots to compete.

GǪexcept, of course, that it wouldn't solve anything since the spammers in question aren't locking anyone out.

Wrong. They make up a percentage of the cap number.

Again what Tippia said.

That just made you look dumb. Load and pilots in system are totally different. AFAIK Jita is capped at 2100 pilots, not 2100 pilots in space. What I believe that means is if there are 200 spammers and 500 afk out of 2100 players in system you have 700 people being queued at the gate extra than if you had no spammers and afks in Jita were logged out with inactivity timer.

Look at the post above yours, numbskull.

I read the post which is why I set the 200 spammers 500 afk people as an example, not just spammers, numbskull.

A very, very low percentage number. So low it really doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things.

Here we have it, ladies and gentlemen. The only poster on the forums who can argue against a blue saying:



Just because I told them about it. Now that is antagonism, some of you could learn from this.

It's that kind of posting that makes these forums not only educational and informative, but entertaining too!!

Or better yet, his thread in Assembly Hall about timers, if you can find it.

Reading it now.

Players and Player actions should always be > Server.

Imo player actions and player made content (such as sneak attacks in deserted systems) should have priority over automation as much as possible.

Yeah this fantastic logic. "There's no problem with the application because if there was the users would have worked around it years ago.".

So let's recap - the server should NOT give warnings to people when their stuff is being shot at because Players > Server. But we need divine intervention to fix Jita because Server > Players.

Exactly. :)

Thats not possible if the server prevents players from creative play.
