well that they should put a cap ( 800 ppl in local no more input ) would be a logical thing to bad for the jita scammers and it would reduce spam during big fleet fights so also the stress on the node ---

If local chat is removed from everything, the server would not be overloaded 😃 win win, for intel we have overview and d-scan we don’t need anything else really. ---

What I really love is this: - new chat deployed on March 2018 - new chat breaks inmediately and keeps breaking several times a day - new chat is worked out on and off (vacations, holidays, et cetera) without a solution until January 2019 - new chat is potentially declared FUBAR in late January 2019 (10 miserable months later) - revert to old chat system by July 2019 (Soon™ & cross your fingers) That’s a grand total of 16 months to ensure that a core service actually works. Nevermind that the very first thing that should have been done was to ensure that the new system worked under real conditions… because, can you figure you’re a noob and the Help chat just does what all chats have been doing for 9 months and counting before CCP considers it a critical issue? Changing the chat system is not something you try doing. Either you nail it or go home. In hindsight, probably the new chat should have been set as “beta” just in case it did what it has done… but maybe they couldn’t, or just would have been too much for the CCP we know. ---

The people in null choose to have 100% safety, with their local reading script’s that send alerts to them when ever anyone roams through, sounds boring as hell to me, don’t see how that follows the whole concept of eve-online. ---

I was exploring in what I thought was a nice quiet system in 0.0. Nothing in local then all of a sudden 35 residents appeared. Having got out of the system I now have the locals following me in local. Totally destroyed the exploration part of the game. Not good when you google the problem and realise how long this has been going on. ---

100% safety? Scripts? The intel provided in systems is not a script, it is people working together to warn their friends. And earning the isk in a safer( look at the mases of rorqual and vni kills that prove the lie of 100% safety) manner means that we have the option to buy the ships we need - to come out and chase ya around and make your life exciting in WH space - after all HK didnt kill their own keepstar… ---

To be fair you probably came across a fleet roaming around chasing an enemy alliance, or heading to play with rorquals - if you get followed by them - unless you are live steaming and looking for content like that, fleets don’t give a ■■■■ who you are once they know you arent carrying cyno’s and don’t flatter yourself - unless you are in a massively blingy ship - or have spent your time terrorsing members of their alliance, then you just aren’t that important… [Previous page](https://forums.eveonline.com/t/devblog-update-on-chat-system-issues/132371.md?page=13) [Next page](https://forums.eveonline.com/t/devblog-update-on-chat-system-issues/132371.md?page=15)
