Blocking Jumpgates

[Dusty Lens]

I'm going to go out on a ledge here and guess that mine field/jump gate you traverse kinda restricts what landmarks you're going to be passing.

Cool and all that you fly above the horizon for most of the trip buuut... Only so many places you're going to ultimately end up when making the joyride through Alaska.

Kinda like taking the long way around the room to sneak past the guard who's standing right in front of the door you need to go through. Fun, sneaky, you get to hum cool music while you're doing it. But at the end of the day you're still going to need to deal with the guard.

Man, I can't believe the kind of response something as stupid as parking a ship in front of a jumpgate can cause. Does it really hurt the smugglers that much to have to actually stop and RP with me a bit before they eventually quick dock with the gate? By blocking all it does is really slow them down.

it's more of a discussion on the utterly lame Alaska engagement policy at this point.
