been said a million times, delete any bm within 150k of a gate, add a warp to 0 option that cant be defaulted to so no one can ap without risk.

Seems the bookmarks are causing alot of trouble for those that are NOT coppying bookmarks.
This is not acceptable

QFT.. Why can't the devs or gm's kick the ones copying insane amounts of bms and stop them from ruining the game for the rest of us. I got kicked from jita and now this

To stop all this BM shenanigans - just give everyone a full set of full grade Snake implants then they won't need BMs!
Sorted! Job Done! No more BM copy induced lag, no more nodes dying

We have lost 4 nodes tonight. It seems that extreme bookmark copying is causing nodes to time out and the cluster thus consitering them dead. Over 900.000 bookmarks have been copied since downtime.
We are keeping a close eye on the situtation.
Maybe if your bookmark 'fix' wasn't half arsed this wouldn't happen.
Its hack, bandaid coding. Bookmarks are just as important as always, you just made them much harder for new players to get. Nice job, did the guy who came up with that solution get a bonus? Yea I'm mad, I was expecting something more reasonable as a soultion. Instead I can't play on a holiday weekend, and I'll still be bookmark screwed for the regions I don't have yet. Thanks.

Right now I'm thinking they should do DT twice a day. At least then there would be two 11 hour periods of good play rather than 11 hours of good play and 12 hours of total uncertainty!!
Seems the longer the cluster is up the worse it gets and right now it struggles to last a full 23 hour cycle!!

I was one of the ones copying a crap load of bookmarks. I finally meet up with a friend online who's been playing a lot longer than I have. He gave me a copy of his bookmarks so I might move faster through the universe. ( and safer ) It was a one time thing, atleast till I move to another region where some new bookmarks will come in handy.
If you're not going to support something you need to remove it or find a better method.
Warping to structures that never move shouldn't mean having to come in at 15km, perhaps one of the navigation skills can affect your warp accuracy and allow better distance ?
I'm guessing the 15km is so that you dont get ships piled up on top of each other at gates and choking the jump gates.
You really need to think of a solution that's going to work with everyone.

As a newb at day 12 of the 14 free trial. One Question... is the amount of downtime lately "normal" or above average? I understand that there has been a major patch applied - however - In the last 12 days I have been unable to login for close to two days. Apparently today I was unlucky enough to warp through the Jita Gate and now can not get into the game... again.
Just curious before I put my $$ in - seems like a great game, but if this is "normal" downtime at 5%-8%, then I need a lot more money for keeping my network at 4 nines availability.
Cheers.

its a nice try of the GM team to ask the players nicely, but I fear that the reason so much coppying is done is to make money, and they will not care about the wellfare of most.
But I can understand that its the best the GM team can do right away.
I hope actions will be taken so the copy cats cant bother the majority of the players in the future.

Dear players. Nodes have been dropping and we are experiencing
massive load on our system. We have found the cause of this. It
seems that our valued players are overloading the server by
copying massive ammounts of bookmarks. This is bringing our
server to a critical state. We ask you, the players to stop copying
bookmarks. This is the only way for you to be able to enjoy
normal gameplay. We sincerely hope that our request will not fall
on deaf ears. All the best, The GM Team
thats the way aaaah haaa we like it aah haa :)

Well DUH... Nerf BM copying to hell and watch everyone spend the weekend making sure all their friends and buddies have whatever BMs they want/need.
CCP brought it on themselves this time.

while I'm an ardent supporter and fan of CCP, i can't help but feel that ]this is an issue that needs to be addressed by them, and not pushed back onto a largely deaf playerbase.
of course, without knowing the structure of the code it's hard to make recommendations, but getting rid of all bookmarks associated with a char that hasn't been in use for (say) 18 months would be a good start. as would making bm's copied into cans or hangers operate on a time-limit that would vanish at the end of the window.
there must be many better ways of handling this than saying "stop copying your bm's", people won't do it while bm's are so essential to the game.

Would be good with 0 km warps. but they should only be avalible if at war and in lowsec systems. And they should only be avalible if youve curently visited that object.

just give us a temporyary warp to 0 only under manuel warp with the understanding that its temp till you comeup with something better. then delete all BMs in the same grid as the gates. but still allow them to be made but with the game mechanic built in no one will **** with instas thus freeing up lag. not the perfect solution but the preferable quick fix for the current situation if bms are cuasing the issues you say they are. oh and i'm copying bms too, sorry but i cna't risk not having them with the current changes

why not prevent Bm's from been traded or put on escrow? this would probilly reduce the amount of people who will copy them

For God's sake..put in an easy fix..it's not hard! Put in a skill book to train to learn to warp closer to an object..such as gates, stations. I promise you if ppl had that option, bookmarks would not be used as instas. It is an easy fix...and would release up 100's of thousands of bookmarks! 1 + 1 Does equal 2!

Easy fix,
Allow Warp to 0km.
PROBLEM SOLVED 
I see no issue with copying bookmarks, but the mass copying of instas (for what is now the standard form of travel) is just out of control.
Stop being stubborn and hotfix this please. |

I said this when CCP first bombed us with news about the bookmark copy nerf, and I'll say it again.
Planning to nerf something like this so severely is not in the games best interest, especially when ccp has not planned a replacement. If there was no impending copy nerf, would we be having this problem right now? No, we wouldn't. so how is this nerf helping lag at all? It's pretty effectively making the game unplayable for many today so that maybe in the future they can run with less lag? That is not an appropriate trade. what ccp is doing is removing a tool to players, intended or not. They have no confirmed plans to fill this hole, yet make it anyway. In preperation for a storm people will stock up on food and supplies. this is exactly what is going on now, but this is a man made storm and can be stopped, yet CCP makes no attempts to do so.

If you schedule a patch to nerf BM copying, of course people are going to be doing a lot of it at the last minute. That's just.. sensible.

Oh thats good, why not take something vital and limit it only to old players who already copied them.
Thats brilliant! I think you are ready for the dev team there.

it is a direct result of the forced 5 BM copying
everyone and their mother is now copying to make a extra isk since the prices on bookmarks is going up and up by the minute.
what is next thing?, you have to stop using more then 1 drone at the time as the nodes will not take it?
fix the servers, atleast that is what we are paying you for isnt it CCP?
we pay money each month to play on the servers and this last month and a half the servers have been going on their knees daily and gameplay and value for money has been going down steadily with it.
stop fiddling with yourself and fix it, personally i dont care how you do it but a bone hard stance on anyone found macromining could be a sure way to remove 10k macroers that you are currently ignoring.
