Burn Jita has the good side effect of making mining seem interesting and fun by comparison.
Perhaps the goons will blow up their alt freighters etc so that they can claim that Burn Jita is of any interest to anyone but them and their egos.

So how does this work? Is it a FFA VS Goons when they come out of their hole? Do we cower in fear while docked as we see local spike? Do we wardec gewns for a chance of glorious killmails?
Being a late to EvE means I don't know the background of silly events like this.
Also, as the event goes on? stay away from Jita? I can only imagine that the market will go crazy with certain modules since they did post their fit and also because the trade hub will be closed so prices for ''normal'' commodities will sky rocket as well
Just leave CONCORD to take care of the goons and allow the goons have their moment in the spotlight.

Hello Baltec, would you please be kind enough to explain to the good folk of Eve, how and why Burn Jita is the fault of hi-sec players?

Dear Lucas, you need to come to terms with the fact that Ero is gone, then perhaps when you are less angry you can calm down a bit on posting the 'cos I'm hard innit' stuff.
Your friend in Eve J D

Another sign: forums. GD is almost dead lately. Warfare&Tactics has like 1-2 active threads.... Other forums not much different...
Some say this is normal and people just went to vacations. It can be. But overall activity is very low currently.
Because you and so many other players don't understand that this game's activity is cyclical and has always been highest after content releases, and that the current PCU record was set just a year ago and, surprise surprise, shortly after Burn Jita 2
Well it is a surprise to see anyone connect Bore Jita to the highest CPU.
Hmm, let me think of an alternative explanation....
Oh, I have one, the 10th anniversary of Eve Online.

Oh, I have one, the 10th anniversary of Eve Online. "guys burn jita is bad for the game look how many people will stop logging in and unsub" "uh the game had a concurrent login record less than a week after the last burn jita" "BUT THE ANNIVERSARY"
Hey Andski, if you want to think Bore Jita is the reason for the player record peak, and not the 10th anniversary when the whole, 'lets get as many folk online for the 10th anniversary' was heavily promoted on the forums, you do that.
It is just so sweet and adorable of you.

Andski, it was you who posited the link between Burn Jita and the peak in players online, not I.
See your post 122 for details.
The first Burn Jita was a great player made event, and all credit to the goons etc for setting it up.
Second one, oh well, it livened up a few days.
Third one, Bore Jita.

But, paradoxically, i also think that events like burn Jita harm the game as a whole. Ultimately serving the narrow, selfish interests of those that would force PvP onto those that have no interest in it. They don't even care if these players unsub, such is their disregard for the future of EvE.
But hey, who cares right, long as you're having fun your way?
I'd suggest you guys get you're pvp fix somewhere other than highsec, but then you'd have targets that actually fight back? No, you're right, that doesn't sound fun at all! Best stick to EvE with easy mode on, hitting all those freighters. EvE is always more fun with zero risk and maximum reward.
Whilst I think Bore Jita is a bit past its sell by date in terms of innovative play, I do not believe that it does or should harm subs.
The event is always given a lot of advance publicity by the goons as the event is really about them trying to prove that they are relevant to anyone outside of null-sec (nothing wrong with that) so If any non pvp player gets ganked in or around Jita, well, what can one say?
Even for those who do not read the forums, the pretty explosions in and around Jita should suggest that a few days trading elsewhere or actually doing something other than trading for a few days would be advisable.
