for weeks we have the issue we cant login in jita especially on weekends.
Why dont you raise the player limit or alternatively ban all jita spammer bots so regular players can login and play?

Bots and spammers are a problem. Support +1.

Course, you could also take your trade toanother system. That also would help alleviate the issue in a more natural way.

If you're driven to threaten others with harm or violence because of what they do in game, you can't separate fantasy from reality. That "griefer/thief" is probably more sane than you are. How screwed up is that?

remove jita local.

watch 75% of the jita population vanish when they can't spam local.

I think it'd be neat if a 50,000 ISK CPSA were charged per message in Jita local.

Even at just one message every 4.9 seconds, it'd be an ISK sink of close to a billion per day.

Yeah, getting rid of the spambots will be better. Jita is already on a dedicated server node, and a heavily beefed up one at that. Two years ago the population cap was about 1500; a year before that, 1200. Right now it's somewhat above 2k. The limiting factor is server power, and that's been massively improved already. Time to take out the trash.

Fine, buy them a military grade supercomputer node for them and consider it done.

Everybody in entering Jita gets a number. When the system is full, the one with the lowest number gets kicked to make room for the newcomer. No more hugging the station and no more waiting due to congestion.

They've got one. EVE uses multiple servers running separate nodes, integrated through a SSD-RAID database. It's the most powerful gaming computer on the planet, and I believe the largest single network cluster as well (been a long time since I say that last one confirmed though). They had a devblog a while back about their reinforced server node they use for fleet fights- it was some kind of liquid cooled monstrosity that they can't even release the specs on, as a condition for being allowed to use it. Sadly that devblog has been deleted and I can't find a copy of it.

This is, by far, the best "Fix Jita" thread I've read and the suggestion is a good one. I'm not so sure about charging for Local though as this would inhibit the inhabitants communicating (not that you can talk in Jita but you know).

+1 from me for

I just wonder. If CCP HQ was a POS, how much TF would their computer be generating? How much of that would be taken up by Jita?

Well, there it is again. Removing local would seriously solve another issue there. Totally unrelated to (classic space ship) pvp or cloaky scouts ruining carebear fun in null etc... still it would be another issue solved.

The fact is, Chribba already has a nifty website that shows who the worst offenders are. The real question is why they haven't been perma-banned for misappropriating computer resources to the detriment of other players.

De'Veldrin's Corollary (to Malcanis' Law): Any idea that seeks to limit the ability of a large nullsec bloc to do something in the name of allowing more small groups into sov null will inevitably make it that much harder for small groups to enter sov null.

The CSPA charge on local I think sounded like a good idea.

Another fun idea would be to add a voting system of sorts where whenever someone gets enough votes they get thrown out :D

Their was a forum post about the idea of putting low sec space between the high sec empires. It would solve the congestion problem in jita without any artificial voting system or banning of spam bots.

Now i know everybody hates spammers but the fact that they exist prove that some people are stupid enough to believe them, removing spammers and scammers from eve would make eve easier and that i am opposed on.

Honestly I do not see the reason to be in jita anyway there are several better working trade hubs that dont spam 2 scams every 10s. Jita local barely ever has any sensible discussion and 90% of the messages are one form of a scam. Which is especially bother some due to you cant effectively filter people and have the same filter on your alt or corp.

But hey there is easy solution remove concord for one day and let people nuke down the station. :p

Remove some of the connections to Jita. CCP created the Jita issue, they need to end it.
