Aside from that, its the flippant use of the word 'man' which is the next big giveaway!

Originally by: Dirk Magnum If you guys really want to destroy Jita, just create an alliance with a few hundred active members, and have them all jump into Jita together. Every day. Then every day Jita will become utterly unbearable and people start taking their trading to the other hubs. You must be able to cause a complete crash of the system, not just an increase in lag, because if people can tolerate the lag generated by 800 traders and spammers, they can tolerate everything short of a system crash.
Be prepared to repeat this process in another system every few months.
... and you don't think CCP will mind you crashing their server?
That's a good point. Instead of forming an alliance, enter a secret co-op with many seemingly unrelated corps. THEN crash Jita. CCP won't know who the aggressors are and who just got caught in the system at the wrong time.
Not that I'm saying they SHOULD do this. I mean, I'm not advocating the crash of Jita. I'm just saying if they ever wanted to that's one way to do it. Like I said before they'll just have to repeat it in some other system later on since even without Jita some new hub will arise (like Perimter lol)

Originally by: Dirk Magnum Edited by: Dirk Magnum on 06/02/2008 09:09:20 It isn't that much of an inconvenience to people to make one or two extra jumps to pick up modules if they would have gone to Jita anyway.
Why would somebody fly 1 or 2 extra jumps to get an item for 1 or 2 cents cheaper ? And if you undercut Jita by enough people will buy it just to sell it in Jita because it's easy profit for only 1 or 2 jumps
Oh and for the OP, can you please tell us with what items you did start (so we can see it's really working ) ?

Edited by: Dirk Magnum on 06/02/2008 10:08:40 But if they're willing to do that then it shows that Jita doesn't really need to be destroyed. I think maybe I should have clarified earlier that I have had desync problems in Jita ONE time, and I have been there MANY times. I don't go there at peak hours and I generally don't have much taste for complaints that Jita is broken beyond repair.
Also more to the point you made, even in that scenario the person who manufactured the item and put it up for sale outside of Jita still makes isk. They make isk and don't have to go to the system they hate so much.
This and every other thread like it are real chores to read through. I should have avoided it altogether. Unfortunately I made one post in it and then felt compelled to check back on it every now and then because I can't leave well enough alone. Really the mods should just lock every Jita thread with the form message of "when the hardware improves Jita will improve, so be patient or die."

It would be much better to change the sec status of Jita to 0.0 for about two weeks, much more fun to watch, especially if they don't tell anyone before doing it!

Different blob, same effect. According to the noob channels turning it into low-sec should be more effective. General belief says low-sec is empty.

Nope. It's the other way round.
- You're the noob who didn't bother reading the 7 million other threads on Jita.
- You're not the first who had that exact same yet stupid idea.
- You're not the first who seem to have not even basic understanding of economic principles.

O M G, it so sucks that I'm at work and can't log on to create a Save Jita character to "oppose this". Send money to me and I promise I will fight Destroy Jita tooth for tooth, outbuying his orders and putting them back on the market at reasonable prices. Please, every 50 million you can send helps!

Why would you want to destroy Jita? People who actually feel a need to go there get what they deserve.
On a side note, aside from the similar writing styles, how come all of the people "donating" to this don't have a character image, just a ! as if they were only just created, yet they have millions of isk to donate. Nice try though. I'd give it about 3/10 since it's different albeit very easy to see through.

Your idea is funny. If you were to start with WCS and I knew that was what you were buying at the time I would constantly keep selling them and make you pay me so you can corner the market. One of us would eventually give up and since I am making money, it won't be me.
I have a better idea. Give me 100M and I promise not to fly into Jita and will contract all the stuff I have in Jita to you.
Have a Nice Day! ________________________

Just to clarify. Now i am not suggesting this really is a scam, but since it is possible it could be a scam, i thought i'd ask.
While scamming in game is fully allowed as long as it relies on the trust and ignorance of its victim, didn't i read that scamming on the forums is against the forum rules?

Create a low sec line between the empires... Like 2 jumps wide with many gates linked (no chokepoints, so pirates would have to camp alot of gates, and ppl wanting to go throu could do so easier with just some .. scouting to see wich gates where free.. Not to easy thou..
Would promote atleast 1 hub in each empire.. Jita would prob still be biggest (most caldarians and so on)...
Would make pirating fun, and trading worthwhile (isogen not minable in caldari space, and nocxium rare in other regions would mean different prices in each regiong for example)... and pirating more ... uuh.. yeah.. more traders, more profit ;)...
I say more excitement to the center of the eve starmap!

Not a very brilliant attempt at scamming people, I must say.
Also note that none of the characters have any standings with anything, and only one of them was in a corp.
This is the worst scam attempt I've seen in a long time. ---

That sounds like a great way to be removed from a position of leadership from your alliance.

I was a fan of Marshall Bukhov's (Marshall something atleast) forum scam personally. He tried doing a EvE lotto and posted it in atleast a half dozen threads then took to insulting everyone which didn't help his cause much. Also tried the alt posting to ensure 'winners'.
He eventually got banned from the forums and got very mad resulting in making an alt named princess <something> and preceded to fill the newb question forum with 3 pages of F*** you threads.

Originally by: DelTrotter Jita There will always be a "Jita", even if it's not Jita.
Unless people could buy things from multiple systems away, so there would be little need to centralize the market. But in it's current form, there will always be market hubs, it's a necessity when items can only be received in the system they were bought in.
Originally by: DelTrotter Jita CCP should really just implement a cross regional market and save all the grief of having everyone needing to fly into the same system, indeed the same station, to buy their stuff.
My thoughts would be to offer a npc "delivery" service when purchasing an item. Say you buy an item from Jita, you can pay an extra amount to have it "delivered" multiple jumps away... based upon the price of the item you bought. This would be a "per jump" charge, so delivering the item 15 jumps away might not be worth the cost, but 7 jumps for the delivery and 7 jumps for you is far more bearable.
This delivery would of course also take some time to occurr-- i.e. 5-10 mins per system. It delivers to the station of choice in its destination system.
There would still be some centralized trading hubs-- but there would be less need for EVERYONE to go into jita to get their items, less traffic=less lag. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Well, that should've worked... |

It's been a couple of months now. He was talking about sueing the company and certain players because they told him to go DIAF which he said could be taken as a death threat or some crap.

Jita Star system.....
You will never find a more wreched hive of scammers and suicide gankers.....
We must be cautious. -------------------------------------------
Long ago we had Yulai
Then when CCP changed the empire jump gates around Yulai faded and now we have Jita.
You CAN'T "fix" Jita.
Not even CCP can fix Jita.
Lets repeat that last statement for those of you who are slow witted....
Not even CCP can fix Jita.
There will always be the "main" market somewhere.
Play nice while you butcher each other.
