During the downtime today, Sunday 21st September, all players currently located in the Jita system were moved to neighboring systems due to the implementation of a new feature. The Stargate will now check how many players there are in the system and deny access if you attempt to jump into it when too many players are present. In addition to this you will not be able to login on a character if the system has too many players. We have also increased the amount of GMs this evening and if you are unable to login, please press the ESC button and submit a petition in the Stuck category.
This is a temporary solution to this issue, we are working on a permanent feature which has the highest priority and will be implemented as soon as possible. |

This change affects all systems currently, but I'd like to emphasize that this is a temporary fix, not a permanent one. Creating a better solution is top priority and we're working very hard to make it, test it and deploy it in the very near future.
Very near future is like soon, only without the trademark.

Can we troll you?
Ok back on topic. How long do you "estimate" it will take to fix this?
MA
No, you can't. I'm such a nice and friendly guy your mothers would cry if you trolled me.
There's no estimation yet, but as I said this has top priority, we can't magically make it happen tomorrow or anything of course, but it shouldn't take too long.

The player limit should only affect Jita, unless of course you go out of your way to abuse it. But that's also why we'll have extra GMs tonight.

It appears a node died which is why you're seeing the traffic advisory. This is not connected to the system player limit though.

quoting for when you change your statment Wrangler.
Bah, I can make you and your quote dissapear from EVE if I want to, muahahaha!
But let's hope I don't have to change it, I'd look rather silly if it comes to that...

Do you guys even talk to each other?
Sometimes...
Ok, it appears we're looking into what happened, it is unusual for nodes to die like this but it doesn't appear that it's connected to the system player limit. It will be investigated further though.

The maximum population in the solar systems on that node was well below the cap.
Is this confirmation that it is a node cap, not a system cap?
No, this is not such a confirmation.
Is that a denial then?
Don't mess around Wrangler, we are already annoyed enough without you trying to be clever and hiding behind semantics.
What is the cap?
Does it apply to individual systems, or the node that they are running on?
If you don't know, say so.
If you aren't allowed to tell us, say so.
All we want is a little honesty, transparency, and respect.
Is that too much to ask?
I didn't even post...
The player limit is per solar system.
