I think it is unfair that when a ship jumps through a gate it has 100% capacitor. I think that jumping should completely drain your capacitor.

This would solve the problem of fast ships burning back to the gate.

Why is fast ships burning back to gates a problem?




Hmmm, CCP should also remove weapons, to fix the problem of people shooting things.

I agree, this is a major problem, and it should be fixed.

It requires thought and support ships when setting up a Blockade. You should just be able to sit in your Lvl 80 Megathron and Pwn everything smaller.

I think if under attack and trying to escape warping should not be allowed at all, and MWD module will be turned off and whatever tank you have should be removed until you die to this fearsome OP, and his gate camp.

Webs should not have stacking penalties!!

It's called strategy!!

Look if you're smart enough to bring ships with many webs, then there shouldn't be a penalty for PLANNING!!!

100% cap drain every time you jumped. Everyone in EVE would quit overnight.

Imagine a 30 jump trip and how long it would take.


How about every ship that approaches your gate camp just explodes and everyone in Eve is forced to send you an email telling you how awesome you are and how you are obviously a massive hit with the girls.


0/10 really bad troll
I dont normally troll, but when i do i do it on General Discussion.

Just bring back no warping to zero on gates, and give a timer like 60 seconds between jumps on the same gate. There we go moar fun moar tears and picky bookmarks!

You fail at tackling? Using the wrong mods?

It has too much inertia. It just hits the gate even if you get full tackle on them.

0/10

But for giggles. Why would using a gate use the ships capacitor? The Gate is the machine doing the work.

Life isn't fair.

If it was fair, everyone would be allowed to delete your fail threads as soon as you post them.
