Player Features and Ideas Discussion

I've been fiddling with Project Discovery since it was released a few days ago. It's very fulfilling to be working on something tangible that may benefit us all one day down the road. My family and friends have all shown interest in EVE after seeing the P.D. feature. They we're also hesitant to go sign up for EVE because of issues with the feature that arose while I was showing it off on TQ.

Since it's deployment I can average maybe 2/3 submissions to actually go through and reward me with something. The other times I am left with an error message and nothing.... so 1/3 of my time has been wasted.

Additionally sometimes when opening the window or drawing a new sample, it completely hangs and leaves you with nothing. Closing the window and opening it doesn't seem to help, and I see restarting the client as a sign that the feature is not ready for prime time.

I know there are people working on it and CCP is aware of the issues.

I am however suggesting that CCP should take the feature offline entirely until it works without issue. It is extremely embarrassing to be showing off a feature of a video game to medical professionals whom may be interested in helping, only to be halted by bugs or lag or *cough* cheap servers *cough*. So please, do not do any more irreparable harm to EVE's reputation by keeping live a feature that barely works.
