Make autopilot usable or remove it entirely

Dude, learn to quote properly. That statement was from Galaxy Pig.

I did a google search and found a statement by @CCP_Explorer that was quoted on 2012-12-09 saying the current record was 63,170 which is definitely over half of 100k. Basically proving that Galaxy Pig just talks crap as usual.

Anyway, according to Eve-Offline, the current log in record for Eve is actually 65,303 on 2013-05-05.

That number comes from an event where everyone and his mother logged in all accounts they had to reach a new record. Can’t remember if it was an AT or Fanfest or something.

The average was never even near 50k IMHO.

This must all be very confusing for people like you who don’t know the difference between a peek and an average? Or did you intentionally mix that up to make it look like Galaxy was wrong?

Once again you troll twist things around in an attempt to flame. I simply stated the peak log in numbers, not the average log in numbers. Must be very confusing for people like you to actually read and comprehend what was written. Do yourself a favor and go back to school

Yes, you where talking about peek numbers while Galaxy was talking about average numbers. And now you try to turn it around to make it look like everyone else is trolling.

Seriously, not sure why you have to lie all the times. It’s not like it helps you here since it is just extremely obvious to everyone.

Or there both talking cap and I dont give a F***.

You can check eve-ofgline for the real average numbers if you want to verify for yourself. Average player count was never near 50k

Autopilot is very useful if you’re just going to go get a skill book or skill injector because you just take your pod as long as you’re high security they really have no reason to shoot a you besides if they want to be a douchebag because they would be lowering their own security status by shooting at a pod or any shipping high-security without you being under a war dec under a wardec if they’re from that group you’re screwed they can shoot you just because now my proposal is if the corporations under 30 people you shouldn’t be able to get Wardec. Because if you’re under 30 people you’re probably either a mining Corporation or industry and you’re small-scale and you don’t have any fighter pilots yet but I have 20 people that will argue with me there is my two sense of input when it comes to autopilot

What’s obvious is you constantly twisting the actual context of statements around in an attempt to justify your pitiful trolling.

My statement was in response to this:

Never was the server count anywhere near 100k players. Not even half.

That’s a blanket statement. Since half of 100k is 50k and due to the fact that the record log in count was over 65k makes that statement incorrect. So stop twisting the actual facts around with your spiteful White Knight crap, just makes you look even more foolish than normal.

Nope he was specifically talking about the server COUNT, which is NOT average.

You are trash talking because you are wrong ? Is that salt I can taste from your tears ?

Ahhh, even more pathetic trash talk and fail troll attempt at twisting the facts. Doesn’t matter if it’s average or peak log in numbers, the statement clearly said the server count never ever went over half of 100k which is a blatant lie. Obviously the only salt you taste are the tears you’re so desperately trying to hold back.

WTF dude ? There is so much trash talk in your sentence I don’t get exactly what you mean.
I’m telling Ima he is wrong.

Do you enjoy so much adding salt that you don’t ever read my post and rather put salt when I agree with you ? To me, THAT looks “pathetic trash talk and fail troll attempt”.

Okay Rainman, you’re technically correct, which is the best kind of correct, I admit. Although, as always, you complete miss the actual point.

Ima gets it, the claim made it sound like there was this [PERIOD OF] time when you could log on and see 100k people{AVERAGE]. That time was never, not even half. I stand by my statement unless you want to get all super spergy and weigh our belly button lints over it. Then you win, I guess, on a technicality and by a fairly small margin.

Notice that these carebears aren’t even freaking out over the actual claim I made, only the ‘not even half’ part I tacked on the end, which I’m happy to let go of.
This kind of pedantry is literally the only way they can score any kind of victory against the New Order. The pettiness is a testament to James 315’s greatness and power.

Man you must be really butthurt to make such a big deal out of this piddly little thing I said that is still essentially correct.

On the note of so called “Safety” is it really “Balanced” to offer 2 combat opportunities at each gate of transit for every autopiloted ship not a pod, shuttle or interceptor? For those looking to pad zKill with easy victories maybe it is “balanced” Is it really that hard to kill ships on Auto Pilot that are leaving a gate?

For example, lets say autopilot went to zero at each gate approach. A Cruiser or hauler under War Deck is autopiloting in HiSec [That never happens, right?] At each outbound gate the ship is vulnerable for several seconds as it leaves the gate. Same is true with no WD for ships getting ganked. In Null, autopiloted ships not nullified are stuck in bubbles.

Sure setting autopilot to zero on gate generally reduces risk, it by no means eliminates it. There are plenty of combat opportunities leaving each gate. Under Zero Autopilot PvP pilots would have exert a tiny amount of effort to get kills against ships that do not fight back. Additionally you have to be smart because the ship is no longer advertising itself as being autopiloted. I suppose its blasphemy to suggest such a thing though.

It is pretty clear to everyone with at least half a brain that what Galaxy ment was the average since the topic was the amount of players you see when logged in an not some specific out of the ordinary peek at some special day.

Calm down miner! As always you did not understand what people are talking about but somehow joined the conversation anyway and now you get super defensive because you once again made a fool out of yourself. Good job.

They didn’t have warp to 0km when I started.

The more players we get from the instant gratification generation the easier and more brain dead this game gets.

Looking at both of these comments together, yes, I’d conclude that they were talking about averages at least implicitly.

Were there periods where we got above that average, of course that has to be the case with an average. At least some observations have to be greater than or equal to the average.

And Goddamn…the quest for salt is amazing.

My understanding is there was an issue with players having bookmarks to accomplish this…so there was a technical reason for it.

Despite the three stooges desperately stating otherwise, the initial remark did not imply a specific definition for log in numbers. However it did explicitly state a time frame and that the server count never even had half of 100k.

According to Eve-Offline, for 6 years from 2009 to 2015 the average log in amount was 50k with higher peek amounts happening from Dec 2009 - March 2010, from May 2010 - July 2010, from Nov 2010 - June 2011, from Dec 2012 - Aug 2013, from Nov 2013 - March 2014.

More like 48,000.

For both years the average was around 45,000.

Probably around 36,000…

About 45,000.

Again about 45,000…

Hmmmm…make this time period average at 36,000.
