Not putting this past the CSM - wut? Did they learn nothing from the Mothership storm? I know there's the chance of it leaking, but the CSM are supposed to be NDA'd and after Larkonisgate we know a close eye is kept on them.
Someone contracted a serious case of the dumb. I hope they get cured before it spreads.

Now... Sir! That may be a little harsh...CCP has now officially made FunCom (Anarchy Online, Age of Conan) look like responsible developers.

I'm not sure how that forum works - any point supporting it from multiple accounts?If you have an eve account, support this thread (tick the support box) to register your dissatisfaction with the proposed changes...
I suspect there will be no shortage of people supporting it anyway!

I think it is probably per character not per account. If your alts feel strongly then maybe they should bump the thread in a day or so

Safes might have been mentioned in passing, but I would have remembered something this terrible being discussed and I don't...Tea, this might prove of interest:

TLDR: It's alleged that it was mentioned at CSM, CCP decided to ignore you.

The deletion instead of returning to hangers/within range smacks of laziness
To be fair here I think that moving the assets into a random celestial+10AU area would introduce a far higher likelihood of error - plus a damn sight more petitions.
Moving assets into stations? Ummm the petition queue would last for 6 months+ just on this.
Personally I think the best idea would be to make all assets in deep safes "redeemable", just like PLEX are. You choose where you want it to appear and that's it. One time deal.
I think we're probably all looking at Dominion as the culprit (lag etc) here. I rather think not. There was a MS-SQL "upgrade" around the same time and as far as I am aware CCP still have an issue open with MS. It won't be fixed though.

just bemoaning that somebody might outcompete us QQ
Agony and their fucking cloaks and stabs, I tell ya.ah well, more people fitting cloaks I suppose ...
cloaks, stabs, and unscannable T3 post-patch ftw
ah i get it now ... there's going to be invisible boundary in each system - thanks for the picAnything outside this boundary will be removed during patch deployment.
CSM were not consulted about this change thus there has been no player input until now...

yep - an invisible boundary for bookmarkingNot so much a boundary - it sounds like ships can still fly past the boundary, they just can't bookmark once inside it?

Not so much a boundary - it sounds like ships can still fly past the boundary, they just can't bookmark once inside it?
With the scale of distances, it's also kind of unlikely that you'll realistically ever get to the boundary by slowboating.
For example, if you 'legally' get to a spot that's 0.1 au from "The Boundary Wall", it _sounds_ like it's close.
But, 0.1 au is 14 959 800 km, so even in a 10 km/s ship, it'll still take you 17+ days to traverse the 0.1 au.

Hopefully they have a sign or something

We were given a presentation about the "lag" at the summit, the TL:DR is *here*.I think we're probably all looking at Dominion as the culprit (lag etc) here. I rather think not. There was a MS-SQL "upgrade" around the same time and as far as I am aware CCP still have an issue open with MS. It won't be fixed though.
Specifically
* Dominion memory issue was fixed
* Database starvation issue was fixed
* Grid loading fix in sight
There was more but as it hasn't been published it is still under NDA, sorry

Thanks Tea.
I believe they have the same issue open with MS as a client of mine - someone I once referred to as the "Evil Empire" on vent when we were chatting about ISPs/routers/etc (if you remember that). Sadly that's NDA too but it doesn't appear to be progressing - not that I can tell anyway, but its peripheral to what I'm doing.
Back to making "legal" deeps again - I'm not convinced going vertical on the star is wise though. I'm using FW plex gates that spawn to give me unpredictable angles. Low-sec is probably OK for these "legal" deeps due to clutter and traffic but I think it'll be a different matter for a decent covops pilot in quiet systems. Put it this way - I've stocked up on Sisters deep-space probes and PvP will have to take a back seat until I work out how fast I can scan down Othran at a "legal" safe. I don't think it'll take very long, even allowing for the "I know where he is factor"
I need this nonsense like a hole in the head ~
