So what is YOUR thoughts on this?

I have a thrasher BPO research in a region far far away from where I am at and its taking up a research slot for me. But the only way to remove it (deliever) is to actually go to that region and do it.
I would like a new option to simply free up the slot by removing a job from anywhere on the map. This will obviously mean that you lose the BPO/BPC and anything good that would have come out from the research job. But it also means that I get a new free research slot.
You can Trash things from assets anywhere, lets make that work with jobs too.

This is my petition to CCP (I will obviously not post any replies from CCP but Im sure they will answer it themselves here)

Hi CCP

I would like you to add something in a future patch.

As it is now, you can NOT deliever a blueprint unless you are in range of it. Afaik you cant cancel job either unless you are in range.

I would like you to add the option to cancel/remove/disband a research job from anywhere on the map. Like totally wipe it from your character.

The penalty from it as a player would be that the blueprint and/or anything that would have been gained from the job is also wiped. But it will ofc free a research slot on your char.

As you can Trash items from your assets anywhere on the map, this should be doable for research jobs aswell.

I think a change like this would be most welcomed by the indy community.

You know that with skills you can claim a reseach job anywhere in the same region?

I don't think they will add this feature.
And soon this will be moved to Features&Idea's, or however the right forum section is called.

Yea I know about the region but if you live around Delve and the research is in branch/cobalt edge/drone space...

I cant see a good reason why they shouldnt add it. After all you WILL lose your blueprint when trashing the job. Its a reasonable penalty for cutting it loose I think.

And yes, by all means lets have it moved to Features & ideas. Thank you for your input Quentin

You started the research there so just go finish it.

Not CCP's problem you decided to move and leave it behind.

If your that bothered hop in a shuttle and go get it.

Yes indeed obviously I will go there and finish it someday. I am not complaining about it. Im simply offering a suggestion for a new feature that I think would be welcomed by the indy ppl.

Since its possible to trash items it should be possible to trash jobs too.

The first skill my research alts trained was infomorph psychology.

EACS was the first non player corp they joined.

Single shard is one of the best selling points for Eve\CCP imho.

But take a moment to consider.... We can send eve mails, chat in channels across the entire 'space world' (And by that I mean even someone in a WH can chat to someone in HS). We can setup and accept corporation contracts between regions.

We can even propel out consciousness across the galaxy and wake up in a new body ('m the proud owner of 5 pairs of boobies in space)...

Yes we can't start/deliver a manufacturing jobs or setup a market order outside of a region.

I'd support something that truely worked like the single shard. I would like to be able to manage my Galante space t2 and capital construction business while I'm mining caldari ice 11 jumps away without having to burn my clone jump timer or fly 20 jumps return to get back to mining for POS fuel.
I've done some really stupid shit in this game.

CCP made the system so that its would take time to get from a corner of the galaxy to the other and encourage people to settle. Yes its an annoyance, but there are solutions for that. For an instance: have at least some brains, set up jump clones, get scientific networking to a decent level. This game is all about planning and it does not forgive a lack of attention.

While we are at it being a single shard, why not do away with transport altogether.. Lets have our hangers accessible from every station so we can sue our items wherever we are. Lets take portals to every known system in the universe so we do not have to travel and explore.

Sorry I can't agree to this, perhaps the contract system should also be changed to reflect the market behaviour - OR introduce a skill book to allow market trading outside of current regions (level 1 - neighbouring regions, level 5 - New Eden Wide!) sheesh homoginisation anyone?

The industrial, scientific and trading career paths rely on your ability to manage your assets, time and logistics to get this done efficiently as possible.

Good luck jump clone/pod express yourself and free up that slot or wait and complete the finished job and stick to your original plan.

And I am quite jealous, despite having a pretty decent set of pecs. It's just not the same :(

Its time to stand up against the bad empire based CEO telling falsehoods about what new characters can accomplish and pushing them towards an in game experience of drudgery and loneliness keeping them in the shadow of ignorance for at nest their own profit at worse apathy towards all the experiences that Eve has to offer.
