- Only way to fix this I can think of, is to prevent group jumps alltogether. Wether a barge or a few 5K transies, the issue is the same - instant cargo transfer without risk for an encounter.
But by removing it its just killing the tactics. As if you want you can now jump a whole battleship fleet. for invasion for example. wich in my view makes it fun. The barges itself. Its GIVEN by ADMINS. So if these decide to restrict the Barge owners more. As i have an own Barge too. Wich sometimes is jumped. But its never jumped for making creds! Not as i see with some others who does. also i fly it (YES FLY!!) this week i did fly it for 10 hours or so. Also 5k jumptrading is not worth the effort. and to be honest jumping is not that much used anymore (my views) As coordinates etc costs lots time to maintain. And the old JZ was a good example. It was much coordination. Wich in my view is good. But no matter what is changed. there are allways people trying to avoid rules. or 'bending' them if possible.
So in short:
Add some lines to id's wich would be easiest and fastest to solve it. or add in this case on the barge some additional lines like on the zoner whale. (whale may only be used with zoner id for example) its not that hard with some small additional lines to fix a lot.
But to be honest. if i look around and see how much barges there are left ingame (at this time 57). And of this i know where like 15 of them are. From wich maybe 1 or 2 abuses it for gaining credits by whole time trading with it. a.k powertrading. so the ones wich are (ab)using it is not a big group. But its allways that the minority ruins it for the majority. Seen this happen to many games shamefully. Some wich even turned bad due to the never ending crying of people to change it to the people who are coding or modding it. But in the end, are the players responsible how to play their equipment and in this case ships.
