Hey,

I don' know when it got introduced, but years back there was no silly restriction of "only 1000 stacks can be placed in a container/station/citadel"

I can't immagine removing this restricition would kill the server, so for the sake of BP management and misssion loot dumping, please remove it.

Regards.

This would sooooo kill the server.

Each stack of items is a record in a database (as opposed to each item being a record). Having more than 1000 stacks means more data being stored, and more data being transferred about.

pretty sure this limit has always been there. (at least since the beta closed) you may have been able to get more then 1k as there are ways to reach this but no this is just a no go. the data base structure in eve is old and even when it was new it was not the best. and don't expect any change to it any time soon almost every aspect of eve is welded to this lovely legacy code
