Wait until the exchange into Revelations is complete and all the new coding, graphics, physics and optimization is complete before whining?
More new hardware?
More dynamic resource allocation to distribute the server's processing power more adequately to those areas of the game environment that are having issues?
Realisation that CCP know there's an issue at times with performance, and that they're trying their hardest to overcome an ever-growing playerbase?
Remove killmails? That'd stop a big load of lag in fleet battles with so many mail deliveries... Oh no sorry, that'd prevent all the counterstrike migrants from declaring their leetness as they camp gates in their smartbombing capitals, or lead 200 man blobs in to shoot a control tower for five hours and declare how they "pwnt" their opposition.
To be honest, it's irony defined :
Bunch of people who want to win so badly and can't face the horror of loss that they get the most MASSIVE blob of players they can. In response their opponent says "omg moar damage!" and fields 150% their numbers.
Everyone jumps in, shock horror the server has a brainfart! Nodes die, babies cry, raptor jesus curses everyone, mission runners in Jita lose their CNR's to a Gursitas Arrogator because of a Tsunami of lag and node drops.
Cue massive whining on Eve-O about how CCP suck and their crap servers are killing the game, when in fact it's the 500 people too scared about losing a fight out in the middle of nowhere that have caused the issue.
If CCP makes fleets stable, people will just think "OMG NOW WE CAN BLOB WITH MOAR PEOPLEZ! TEH SURVUR CAN HANDLE ANOTHAR 500 ON GRID!11ONE DEPLOY TEH TITAN!11"
Rinse and repeat cycle.
Maybe you could all just stop blobbing? Ever thought of that?
Oh no wait... just come to the Eve-Online forums instead, which incidentally are hosted on the SAME SERVER CLUSTER, and contribute even more to the lag and instability by whining how much CCP apparently suck, while failing to remember that without them, you wouldn't even know what the hell a Sensor Booster II was.
Alliance warfare never ceases to amuse me. It's like watching someone play Lemmings 
Verone, thank you for that post. Couldn't have said it any better. --------------------------------
