I wish we had a gates that could cover vast distances, say Rens to Jita, in one jump but there would be a fee for using it.

I wish I had a driver's license the day after I got my first tooth.

The right to free speech doesn't automatically carry with it the right to be taken seriously.

Let me guess. Connect the major trade hubs....coincidentally.

We must accommodate the idiocracy.

I don't know about all of the trade routes but Rens to Jita can be done all through hi sec so what's the difference. I'd pay 25-30 mill to use a one jump gate from rens to jita.

That rate is so cheap that any pilot who has been playing for longer than 3 months would ignore all other possibilities. 500mil minimum.

No it was a serious suggestion. Any level 4 mission runner or 0.0 grunt or small time market player can make 2-3 times what you are suggesting as a fee during the time it would take to gate fly between Rens and Jita. Thus your plan would negate all other options. That is poor game design.

*points to the old "superhighways" that used to connect the edges of high-sec... but were then removed*
*points to the "power projection" changes that nerfed easy long-distance travel for almost every ship in the game*

It's almost like they've removed jump clones from the game.

moving goods is already easy and low risk enough that it doesnt make much money.

If anything we should be changing things in the opposite direction to revitalise the transport business.

Jita-Rens is basically the shortest trade route in game (other than Rens-Hek, but that doesn't count).

Grow a pair and travel through lowsec.
