True, sorry for falling for a derail troll.
I commented already Somewhere(tm), but here's a repetition: personally I don't ever go to Jita and I don't intend to start for this stuff. Beyond personal opinion, I don't care either way. If people want to blow other people up in high-sec, by all means. I think CCP is with me there, too: after all, Mittanigate was not about blowing up a miner but about what was said about it. I doubt it will have any long-term effects. For people to change business permanently out of Jita it would have to take months. |

Effects?
None. Not any meaningful ones, anyway. A few people lose stuff, some money moves around the economy, at most Jita becomes a little more quiet for a bit as the traders and industrialists take their business elsewhere, but the game as a whole doesn't rely on Jita. It's a convenient hub for activity, not the activity itself.
The most the Goons can hope to accomplish is inconveniencing a bunch of people who'll probably be smart enough to outmanoeuvre the problem anyway (and if they cant.... oh well, that's EVE. HTFU.)
CCP certainly don't have anything to worry about. if the Goons think they can shut EVE down single-handed, they've forgotten that that's what they wanted to do in the first place.
Look how well that turned out

I don't expect much in the way of tears either; those who use Jita enough to matter will see this as an opportunity or, at the very least, understand that this is Eve and won't whine about it.
But we'll see, I suppose.
If Goons want grief and tears then they should instead move their Tornadoes to mission hubs and start ganking expensive mission ships. Those who run missions 23/7 are quite possibly the most self entitled, conflict-averse people in all of Eve, and they would whine the loudest. Plus, it still affects the market to a degree by destroying expensive ships and modules.

You realize they said BURN JITA
but odds are it can just be a distractions.
Basically ALL trade hubs should just be mindful of local and the surrounding systems around that time.
ALL of them.

Shooting sh*t and blowing up ships in a game designed for shooting sh*t and blowing up ships is not really much of a protest in my opinion.
The ultimate protest is to unsub.

The problem is their dear leader has specifically instructed them not to unsub. They are stuck in the game until The Mittani says they can go. Much like a dog waiting with a treat on its nose.

State of the goonies was hilarious to me. One second he is admitting he messed up and the next he is saying he was wronged... I guess that's the only way he can try to motivate and confuse the followers. He is very lucky to get this slap on the wrist.
There is no SOV in Jita last I checked. I am sure they will have fun none the less. |

What makes you think its a protest? the jitaburn was planned long before any of the csm crap happened. It has nothing to do with the Mittanis ban except perhaps it being put back till his ban ends. The only real effect it will have is the goons will now post "free Mittani" in local instead of the usual memes.

I already feel like part of the sandbox died with the Privateer Alliance nerf.
Whatever "dev" it was that removed the pod squish sound probably never even logged into the game. |

Don't think that would happen. During the incursion live events of 2010, a large group of the roleplayers etc were looking at doing something. People misquoted us and the reps came straight out and said that they do not promote or allow special actions for players or groups. Something like that. If this did happen, it would be as part of a greater eve roleplaying and would be open to all players of eve. That would mean advanced noticed and other people would counter hotdrop eve.
That in itself would be a pretty cool thing and excellent promotion for eve. Live events allow for much larger profile of a bit of how null and lowsec are. A highsec capfight would get alot of people attracted to the pvp side once they actually see or can get involved with the large gang stuff. Mechanics and favoritism accusations would probably do more harm than good though. |

Y'know, for ***** and giggles, I dropped a can in Dodi labelled 'Free Mittani.' Someone immediately flipped it in the hopes I would start a fight over it, but then someone else flipped it thinking the second guy had dropped it, and someone else came along thinking the third guy had done it. It actually turned out a lot like the beginning of RoadHouse.

I find it funny the Goons complaining about their 10k votes being "nullified". Blame their boss, he was the one that acted like an asshat. If you wanna be mad at CCP for some reason, be upset at them for promoting drinking via dev comments and so on as much at the fanfest and then maybe "He Who Not Be Named" wouldn't be living with the consequences.

No. He said he was angry that CCP threw him under the bus for a possible non public agenda...
It seems some people don't pay attention very well. You should probably start up your ADHD meds again.

Burning Jita would, in my opinion, be a good end to this sad saga. It's a game of space combat and PVP after all.

Why would they? Because continued grieving and or disruption of other players game experience is frowned upon if not covered by the GM governance framework.
Spiteful goons are spiteful.
This pretty much. They'll let Jita burn in the short term but if it continues with no end in sight and game play is disrupted for a lot of players, I can see them step in.
I see another trade hub picking up the slack though

I made out like a bandit on that. I just switched out my mack for a noctis. People kept coming. I even actively warned people away and they wouldn't stop coming.

Goons wouldn't have to *DO* anything other then hang around off the undock on Jita 4-4 - the 99% would turn around and re-enter the station as soon as they saw the thousands of flashing red icons.
Goons could cripple the regions trade without firing a single shot.
