Okay Jita is the Trade Hub, and Currently on my Main it take me 20 minutes to jump the 20 systems to get thier,

- would a Warp to Jita ~

i right click, warp to jita and i warp for 20 minutes being 20 gates away, and land just outside the system at jita's New supergate, located just on the edge of the jita system - where you can still be ganked by gankers and kamikaze runs,

the only diffrence is instead of jumping though 20 systems for 20 minutes you just hit warp to jita and sit thier for the 20 minutes or so while you travel to the supergate (enter jita system) then warp to station/s - you then have to travel back the normal way,


and yes for the Pirates out thier who are about to moan about ^ Perhaps make it a fee $ to use - the Bigger your ship the more it Costs $ to use as an incentive to use the Normal gate/s travel so you can still gank the Freighters,

or just have it limited to frigates cruisers battleceuisers and industrial ships,- just a thought and ment as a what if.

This entire idea is just terrible for so many reasons, the least being trolling.

CCP has no sense of humour.

Thanks for running that past us. I can only assume you would like the forum communities opinion then. Some Rando stated that his opinion was that it was a terrible idea.

My opinion is also that this is a terrible idea.

I would venture to guess that most people who are going to comment on this will either be trolling or saying the same that we are.

I do not like the men on this spaceship. They are uncouth and fail to appreciate my better qualities. I have something of value to contribute to this mission if only they would realize it. - Bill Frug

So you want to have more time not "playing" the game while you "play" the game.

Create price cheker alt in jita in same account, personay i got one, character for years siting only in j4m4. I like this idea where no gates, but well, EvE mechanic is like is, we cant change this, and for some reasons (gates are magic).. it give EvE space deep sf look...

EvE isn't game, its style of living.

I'd like it, if it worked slightly differently.

When you jump from one gate to the supergate, it's almost instant as now. But when you arrive, you have to wait in space 20 minutes for your ship to recover.

And you reply to everyone in the form of a question, why, exactly? I rarely see you giving an opinion, and more often see you just feigning intelligence by essentially asking "why" to everything. Seems to fool a lot of people judging by your likes though.

This idea is bad because EVE's lore is heavily built around the idea of stargates and their mechanics, and much of the gameplay is based on reliance upon stargates. Change/remove stargates and you massively alter the game, likely for the worse.

By their fruit you will recognize them.

So asking for a reason to make dumb changes is feigning intelligence?

Excellent idea. AFKing is entirely too difficult and risk laden as it is currently iterated, CCP has ignored this for long enough. Additionally, for a game where "mini professions" and emergent gameplay are supposed to shine, I must say I feel marginalized in my preferred profession of ship spinning. Currently ship spinning earns zero ISK, zero LP, and zero officer loot dropzzz. Beyond this, its difficult to ship spin AFK, someone please explain to me why miners can go afk and make fortunes, while I am forced into abject poverty simply because I prefer ship spinning.

I propose a ship module that will spin my ship for me while I am afk, and additonally, 1 spin = 100 LP with a small chance for officer drops per spin as well. Perhaps add an officer module that increases the speed at which my ship spins.

If my ideas are implemented, you won't ever have to use a jumpgate again, you could simply sit in Jita raking in the phat lootz from the complete safety of your majestic captains quarters.

I think usually he's just using the socratic method, so that's why he tries to move things forward by asking questions.

In this case it's a good question to ask regardless. Surely if you propose a radical alteration to a current working mechanic, you should also be able to provide a good reason why the change should be done. If you can't, you're either trying to hide a bad reason or the idea isn't worth implementing.

You are clearly a belligerent undesirable, CCP shall soon remove your kind from the GD forums entirely, so that we can be left to have highly intelligent and well reasoned conversations such as the one by this fine OP in peace!!!!!!!

I had this idea of a forum section where you can post ideas. What do you think about it?

Blasphemy! There is no forum other than the ONE TRUE FORUM. Praise GD, hallelujah, hallelujah in the highest. Be gone you belligerent undesirable you! Next we'll have people in here attempting to tell US that the earth is round or some other nonsense.
