Here's a very simple alternative to the "warp to 0km" solution:
No bookmarks allowed within 15km of gate or station.
Problem solved with minimal fuss. Game stays as it is now, except no instas. Game increases in difficulty for lowsec, granted, but is that necessarily a bad thing?
Discuss.
PS. I spend 90% of my time in lowsec and I don't use instas.

Topic on the subject number 2039 and counting.
And no, that is not a "simple solution". I'm not even certain it's very good for the servers, either, nor if warping to gates would be compatible with warp bubbles, et al. - Am I in the coolest alliance or what? |

No, but why not add to the already massive noise on the subject?

no problem, just add enough gate guns to insta pop anyone that shoots.

Did you read the forum rules? Apparently not.
Just count yourself lucky that the mods are very lenient. - Am I in the coolest alliance or what? |

But isn't 0.0 supposed to be dangerous? I have no trouble surviving in 0.0 without instas, why should you?

I support this motion.
/me hugs 20km BM sets. 
Just being pedantic.
....it's great hi-jacking a meme isn't it?

I vote warp to zero stays. If you do not adapt to this change, well, coldplasma is on the prowl...

What stops people from making their bookmarks at 30k from a gate and warping to them at 30k? Or, 100k? Perhaps you mean, remove all bookmarks within 115k of gates or stations.

Merely a sarcastic remark to answer a pointless question.

At distances like 30km from a gate I sincerely doubt you'll be able to insta-warp, dontcha think?

Do you even understand how instas work? Just create the BM's 30km from the gate instead of 15km, and warp to 30km....

You overestimate the difficulty of making a 30km or even 100km insta. Just bring the gate symbols of your starting gate and your target inline and get to the right distance (- 4km of the warp in). Chances are very good you arrive within jump range.

At 30km out from the gate, wouldn't you have to be warping in from a position directly in-line with the 30km bookmark and the jumpgate? Anything other than a head-on warp to bookmark (such as from an object at an angle) would cause you to miss the gate altogether.
Mabye I'm crazy?

Then people will just make bookmarks 15-17km past and warp to 20.
Your point?
