FC: "Okay everyone warp to the outgate, gate is RED do not jump..."
Testie: "Did someone say jump? I heard someone say jump!"
FC: "I said the gate is RED! Why are you jumping?! Goddamn lemmings!"

Due to being from a terrible alliance full of people who are terrible at the game, we have a fair number of players who can't seem to tell the difference between the buttons that make you align and warp. With the addition of the 'warp-to-and-jump' button the complete loss of all of our sov and the complete destruction of our alliance is inevitable. Making the lemmings sing on voice comms as punishment isn't enough, and is often more painful for everyone else than the offender as they mumble along to the song out of tune and off the beat.

It'd be nice if we could broadcast a gate so that it put a big red cross on a gate that shows clearly that it should not be jumped through. It would also be nice if a popup box could come up if anyone tries to jump through a red broadcasted gate, preferably calling them a mouthbreathing ********, and fining them a few million isk for being so dumb.

People will ignore it anyway.
