I cant stand going to a belt and seeing all these cans...makes orbiting targets hard sometimes bumping off all the cans.

I think CCP should do something about the can problem indeed.
People find even time in wars to make complete art-works with them, not only lagging the system but even anoying the hell out of people who have to look at it every time they undock.
Do we realy want to wait on the first gatecamp where the 'bad' guys have sealed off the gate with hunderds of cans ???
A timer on the cans would be the best solution or a hacking-skill to unlock these old-time trashcans.

The contract system is coming in Kali, right?
How about you have to purchase contracts from local sovereignties if you want to be able to anchor cans with any kind of permanence. Say, if I want to drop a loot can somewhere in an area controlled by Caldari government I have to purchase anchor rights for a certain number of cans which is valid for a certain time period (month, say). If the contract expires, then at nightly maintenance any cans belonging to me in that area are immediately removed.
You can deploy any number of cans, but anchoring is limited to that number of cans you're contracted for.
Thoughts? Improvements?

Nothing more needs to be said then has been done. It's been years, it's an annoyance, causes lag, and pollutes systems. Humanity spends countless hours worldwide daily through community service and employment to mitigate and eliminate litter / garbage, and will always continue to do so. Can you imagine if all it took was a few programers a couple of days and a few lines of code to eradicate all the garbage?
If it's about the cost issue where you think it would take too much time, money and consideration, then think about the those 3 factors when you create jump queues, or login queue's because of system overload... Think of those 3 factors when you have to upgrade your system to try to keep up with the demand and strain on the servers. Think about those 3 factors and understand that maintenance and upkeep pay themselves off 10 fold as opposed to band-aid solutions.
After a 4 page petition I would think it might rouse some attention in the eyes of the Dev's to potentially address this issue again and help us to comprehend the reasoning behind the delay / apathy. Even if there is no solution or compromise in the near future please show us some respect by responding and informing us of why this continues after years of complaints.

* One month and then pop
* A fine for loitering space
* A limit to cans-per-player
* Lose anchorage effectiveness after 2 weeks
Any of those, or all of them. But plz plz plz, do something about the cans! |

go to system "new eden" and check the amount of tourist cans there.
Ye, I have one up as a memorial for a mate, and if it caused huge uber lag in the system, it would become a problem, but theres hundreds upon hundreds of cans in new eden and never any lag.

Guess it was easier to reduce the number of player controlled drones "because they cause lag" than to reduce the amount of unused crap floating in space.
That's not why they did that and you know it. You can't put made-up stuff in quotes, we'll catch you.

I think you should be able to anchor as many cans as you like, but in order to anchor more than 5 you need to have your corp mates do it for you. And also, any cans they anchor for you is one less can they themselves can anchor.

Supernecro'd.
Someone mentioned earlier to base it on location relative to a celestial object. This is optimal for removal because:
1) It leaves stuff like the eve-gate cans alone
2) It means I don't have to bust my way into 0.0 to flip my caches every month. They'll still be there when I need them agin.

How about a new mini-profession.
Requires salvaging 5, and some other skill, which gives you a percentage change of unanchoring the can, then you can have another skill, maybe based on hacking which will allow you to open said secure can.
This would allow people to make a comfortable living by stealing/emptying cans. Obviously the usual criminal flagging should apply when in empire. You steal from or even the whole can, you can be shot at for say 12 hours after you've done it by the corp/player whose can it was.
Edit: Spelling.
Would give people an incentive not to leave them lying around all the time.

So someone necroed this thread from the depths.
Outside of one of the stations in Ardene, some lonely person spelled out "HI".
They need to solve the can problem. Or... we might consider spelling out the EULA for EVE in Jita. Now that would be a worthy task.

They said it was going to be done about 2 years ago after a "grace period" to let people get anything important moved. Still waiting though.

Idea I've suggested before:
In your wallet, there is a section for payable bills, where you pay rent for Offices, Labs, etc.
Have anchored cans cost "1" isk rent per month. Don't pay, and your can pops at down time.
There is no need for more.
I am certain that 90% of the cans in Eve, especially in 0.5+, are abandoned.
Within one month, 90%+ of the can in Eve would pop.
At 1 isk per month, even the rawest noob can afford them.
Heck, if CCP can program it, have it be 0 isk per month. The key detail is that a player has to say "yes, I want to keep that can" every month.
Damb, that is a good idea.

Why not allow those with the hacking and salvaging skill to remove them for you?
There's billions of isk worth of abandoned cannister out there, someone can make a fortune

NO!No no no no no..!
Many of us have huge amounts of isk in cans we cant access...
For example i have a loot container @ a planet in deep 0.0 worth some 250 mill.
A better idea would be to make rats shoot containers in belts. And actually they did that earlier on Singularity but it might have been fixed.

okay lets create a "subspace shockwave" from somewhere that unanchores all cans then makes em go boom tech heads see it coming and give the population 3 weeks to retrieve all there belongings and cans its could be a monthly thing.
so say like this
**********pulse detected jita system blah blah blah********
day of event during dt all cans go boom
after dt new news item next pulse detected for blah blah
keeps the rp'ers happy and so fourth just an idea

It's seriously funny tbh, I took a 2 year EVE break.
I came back and I found it too damn funny that all the gates are still littered with those damn cans.

Just give the containers a max time they stay anchored, after that everybody can pick it up. When a container stays unanchored for too long it gets destroyed, just like normal cans.
