Pretty sure taxis in downtown Cairo don't have a "cloak of don't let this traffic effect my business" they can turn to....

You just don't understand, Kimmi. These people spent all week mining free minerals, cranking out products on unresearched BPOs, and/or ratting and missioning it up. Now it's the weekend, and it's time to party down by hauling all that **** to Jita and selling it to horribly low buy orders.

Why can't you understand that they NEED to be able to do this? It's a bit too much to expect a man to d-scan or ask in local if the Jita gate is on lockdown when he's just spent a back breaking week orbiting asteroids to the soothing background murmur of Netflix.

Highly motivated weekend redacted.

and with the same posters?

Obvious lies. No one in EVE has such levels of motivation. Perhaps you're simply mistaken, and your BR was autopiloting to all those moons while you were taking your nap?

Warp to a safe 150+ from the gate, is there lots of cargo ships sitting at 0 from the in gate?

If yes then traffic likely, take steps to secure your cargo and join the traffic.

One can only wish. Give the people what they want: unfettered access to Jita.

I have 0 issues with this game.

I don't get why a handful of people need to repeat themselves over and over.

Largely, it's because a handful of people keep repeating the same incoherent and counterfactual nonsense over and over, and are in dire need of being corrected.

Actually it is a problem. Otherwise there wouldn't be 2 threads talking about the same thing.

"Use Contracts!"
"Go to a different trade hub"
"Wait until midweek!"

None of those fix the issue with Jita being shut down.

Its the only system that gets capped

there is no statement of the gates being closed

Sorry you don't see the idiocy in saying

"Use Contracts!"
"Go to a different trade hub"
"Wait until midweek!"

- Its the only system that gets capped
Hey guys look we can put 4K dudes in a fight but can't handle 2500 folks trying to buy and sell ****.

- there is no statement of the gates being closed
Oh your 6B isk ship is now getting bumped on the Jita gate in New Caldari and about to get ganked because there is no way to know whether gates work or not unless you try them. Suck it up!

We have a problem, instead of fixing it we are going to tell you how to bury it under the rug! ~CCP 2006-Present.

ap?

3. Remove all missions, mining, pvp in Jita. There is absolutely no reason for people to be pvp'ing or otherwise doing anything in Jita except trading. They can **** off and go elswhere, there are thousands and thousands of systems in EVE. If you must camp people in Jita, you can do so on the gates in the surrounding systems.

Have a pop up telling you Jita is full. Did I get that right?

So how often do you want the servers to query the database on the population in Jita as it relates to the population cap to know whether to display your beloved pop up or not? Let's just throw some infrastructure resources at that so Dave Stark can feel good about Jita.

Should we have this for every system or just Jita? We might as well have separate queries per tick for every system just so some poor dipshit freighter pilot doesn't get ganked on a gate outside a heavily trafficked system, right?

Doesn't the map provide this 'intel' already?

Hey, even my navi has got this ability to tell me which of the roads are jammed and warns me/leads me around and we're just in the 21st century..

And ammo selectors exist, yet it still takes ten seconds to change which kind of bullet goes into my Jaguar's guns.

Oh, and real life comparisons to space technology in a different freaking galaxy are still invalid.

Dude, you drive a Jaguar with guns on it? Awesome!

That's a pretty silly suggestion. Why are you making it?

You shouldnGÇÖt have to not play the game you pay for because your market place is full.

Because he makes a valid point.

Others suggest to dock up or some other silly BS to avoid being ganked for a poor game mechanic outside their control so you guys can keep on taking advantage of those caught by it.

Not really, no. He's making a strawman argument to cover for the fact that he can't be arsed with solving his own problems even though the game has provided him with many many mechanisms to do just that. Instead, he just throws up his hands and gives up and start get hostile when told that it's his own fault for choosing to not do anything.

Not only is it entirely in his control, taking precautions to get ganked is something that should be second nature if you play EVE. In this case, it is so trivially easy to do that it beggars belief that some people so wilfully skip over it and the only thing more mind-boggling is that they try to blame other people for their own decisions.

There is absolutely no reason why the game should protect him from his own explicit decision to refuse to do so himself.

Good news: you can play the game regardless. Claiming otherwise is idiotic and ignorant.
