I looked for a way to prevent the solitude gate (as many soli residents did in the last weeks). and now it is clear that this is no player driven event to change the landscape.
thats absolutely bad and boring.

Frankly, any time gates changed before there wasn’t even player input involved so… eh

Nope.
At lest they don’t try to hide it like with invasion
Only thing I could think of, is that they intended for us to be able to choose, but couldn’t figure out how to make it work in time. There is also the issue that they need to reflect the outcomes on both Game servers, ours and china’s? And with both servers able to choose different outcomes, looks like they either couldn’t resolve it, or just decided against it. That’s also something that affected the Triglavian invasion, Chinese players pushed some systems (generally for edencom) and we pushed other systems, (for either faction) and thats why there are tons more edencom victories than triglavian victories.
EDIT:
Or, they just lied to us. #JustCCPThings ?
So pay for the game and go omega
Try paying a sub then.
LP store looks like shyte.
Slow clap for CCP

Whatever, the loss of Niarja was a blessing, it made the Amarr market relevant, even attractive.
There are already options that go through low security space for this route. What people actually want is a route that doesn’t leave +0.9 space, though this wouldn’t be as necessary if CONCORD/Crime gameplay was not in such an unhealthy state.
Seriously, every time a gank catalyst/talos/tornado dies they can just respawn and re ship in high sec after 15 minutes, rather than being thrown out into low security or NPC null space with their wreck looting alts. Its so telling that there are special rules for this event that forbid the normally toxic eve culture.
Its not right people can’t ruin the event, when they can ruin the rest of space with impunity.
Sandbox my ass.

“all previous standings and empire ship class access restrictions have been removed from the entry acceleration gates to the empire Mining Expedition sites…”
ALSO… “You can’t activate this acceleration gate in your skiff…”
Come on CCP at least follow your own announcements

What’s Stainguy gonna do now? The meme is dead man. It’s dead!!!
He said that he gonna biomas when gate is finished
Damn, wasted opportunity 
This is a stupid event that it is even more bad due to the lack of info. There are multiple beacons in the indicated region of space but :
- Minor ones > restricted to frigates and corvetes
- Limited ones > restricted to a max 3 pilots. NPC : frigates and cruisers
- Major ones > restricted to max 6 pilots. NPC : frigates, cruisers and battleships.
In conclusion you will go the the system and you will find out that is impossible to enter a site due to the fact that there are all already “too crowded” or your ship cannot handle the NPCs. So you waste you time traveling, etc…

I understand that some of you are unhappy that you aren’t being given the chance to influence whether these gates are being built, but this is a reminder to please keep your responses civil.
You are allowed to express disappointment but inappropriate comments will be removed and warnings / silences issued as necessary.

To clarify, we have removed the restrictions that forced pilots to fly ships from a specific empire in order to enter (So for instance the old Limited State Mining Expedition sites used to allow Merlins but not Rifters). Now any ship of the correct group can enter no matter which faction it belongs to. The ship group restrictions are still in place, so the Skiff can enter the Major and Critical sites but not the smaller ones.
