Yeah and can't blame you guys for doing it, its like if you don't do it they will. I don't think when the cyno mechanics were created that everyone and their mother had cap ships, but now they do. Maybe a 10 sec cyno timer would help. That would instantly stop people from trying to drop a cyno in smaller ships and give a fleet a chance to either stop the cyno from ever going up or gtfo. Black ops should be instant, but cap ships should not. Even jumping gates isn't instant so in addition to a cyno timer the cap ships should have a 5 sec like warm up or something. All the movies we have about space travel and not one is like eve where jumping a number of light years is instant, its always some sort of sub engine initiation. A 5 sec cyno initiation timer to drop a cyno, a 5 sec jump drive initiation for a cap ship to jump and a 5 sec system recover timer once the jump has been made seems realistic and fair.

Yes that too, not the force the cyno off grid. Because each cap ship is really creating its own wormhole right?. A titan I understand because wormholes all have a certain amount of mass that can pass thru before it closes. Maybe make cynos where only a certain amount of ships can lock on to the beacon at once. Like only a set number per cycle so 100 caps can't jump thru at once. Also I think the cycle time should be reduced to 2 mins at most with 4 30 second cycles with each cycle sending out the singnal pulse which allows for only that set number of caps to jump to. And.....cyno ships should not be remote repperable for 1 min after the cyno is lit.
