Jump Fatigue and most of all incoming changes in November will slowly but surely kill EVE.

Question is how, so let me explain.
I'm an working man with real life like any of us here, playing 2-3 hours a day after i come back from work and still i have tight time for some other real life obligation, adding this Jump Fatigue in this game it will take me 3 hours of hard work in EVE and I will have no time to enjoy this game anymore, I will need to calculate do I take Jump Bridge or Ill jump trough gates and risk things that I do, i will need to calculate will i go travel to engage in some capital fight and will I have time to get back while there is again Jump Fatigue . so question is now do I need to play a game which has started to be anything except fun. and answer is no i do not need this.
So now many of you will say, no big deal just 1 guy less to shot at, but in real point there is a big deal and here is why

This is real game and EVE surviving mechanic
Like many guys with squeezed time for playing and making some income in-game I'm paying mine game time with my credit card, and that is around 120€ a month, but for any other isk which i need in-game I buy PLEX from PLEX Store and selling them in Jita for isk, and that is in month around 10 up to 30 PLEX depending what i need, If i quit to play this game that is minimum of 10 PLEX less on market. again not big deal, but if happened that 20 players like me say same thing than there is minimum of 200 PLEX less on market, and that thing will increase price of PLEX in-game up to 2 - 2.5 bil, there is starting another problem new players who want to play and even some older will need 3 times more time to spend playing for collect amount of ISK needed for 1 month of playing, so than they will come in same situation as all other guys with real life job family where is CCP trough EVE trying to lead our lives in their direction.
Up to this point of making changes in EVE CCP has done many mistakes and each mistake has resulted that players quitting to play this game, many of you older guys in eve can remember loging on server with 90 000 players online, than update and 72k online than again update which has resulted with approximately 40 k players online at same time all up to now, now you can barely see 23 up to 25k players online at same time, but if CCP continue to make updates like this it will drop down only on Jita alts and few guys doing missions in high security space, and after that EVE will DIE.
so in near future we will be sitting and playing some other game, tallking and remembering game once called EVE

Nobody is actively trying to reduce the amount of "fun" you have. These changes are designed to address the enormous problem with power projection.

On the off chance you are actually absolutely serious:

What evidence leads you to believe your hiatus will affect the game anywhere close to the scale you're predicting?

Your argument of your departure causing a massive chain reaction is absolutely laughable. Even if you did pour in the amount of money you claim to into the game, the impact you have as an individual in the PLEX market is almost unnoticeable.

Also, please point out where exactly these graphs peak at 90,000 players; http://eve-offline.net/?server=tranquility

You have 12 accounts? I can see why you feel short on time. Try going down to 1 account, with a character that focuses on cruisers and smaller.

I've heard that Eve is only fun when you can drop 12 carriers on a ratting battleship.

Sounds like CCP is doing you a favor. This is a game and from what you are saying this is like a second job. As for people quitting... yes it happens... not as much as you would like people to think.
