Exploration sites not de-spawning

I think most people are aware of the issues that moving the DED 1/10 and 2/10 sites to exploration threw up with the gates needing a key to activate and the overseer that has the key never respawning.
This also happens with some of the unrated sites too and it is becoming extremely annoying.
The same site hangs around for days, never despawning and nobody is able to make it despawn by warping to the final room and blowing up the despawn trigger due to the gate issue.
Yet because you cannot be SURE it's not a new, re-spawned site you waste valuable time warping to it until you hit the locked gate.

All CCP have to do is make the gates stay open to anyone after the gate has been activated.

Just buy the Keys from the Markets or Public Contracts. If there's no Keys available, then you'll just have to wait a few days for the site to naturally despawn.

Since the final room with the Deadspace Structure / Overseer already has the despawn mechanic coded into them, I'd much prefer it if CCP had the NPC's and Keys respawn in the preceding rooms after Downtime.

Sure there will be some Key Hoarding but it won't be bad like it was in the past, especially since the site will despawn after being completed or if not completed will eventually despawn after a few days.

I don't run these sites and I still approve of this message.
