Why are we paying maintenance for the fleet carriers when we cant use them. Maybe an idea to set the maintenace to only 10% until the issue of the carriers is fixed?
Fleet Carrier Maintenance
- Thread starter Chris Hankey
- Start date
as far as i know there is nothing wrong with the Carriers, they simply disabled jumping because of server perfromance.
I thought we'd got away with not paying Thursday's tab, as it wasn't taken after the maintainance tick
.........then I got the message on Friday morning.
As for the short term, not being able to move them, it's just a case of making do & doing something else.
What did I say about not being in the black on major update day??? My carrier's been parked in the bubble for a month
I'm keeping myself busy by flying around looking for some decent graded suits & weapons to buy, doing some non pewpew ground stuff, just opened up the 'Jackrabbit' engineer before I called it a night.
Left my 'body' in her(?) Station, so today I'll see what's needed to upgrade my gear.
In answer to the OP's direct answer.....you can afford a Carrier, you can afford the maintainence costs that come with it.....whether you use it or not
You need to lower your costs? then just suspend all services until we can jump again.

You're not paying additional wear and tear costs for jumping
Anyway, some people use their carriers as stationary markets - why should they pay less if their carrier works as usual?
It's like with covid lockdowns - many people faced problems when they were forced to have their businesses closed (like restaurants), but still had to pay rent and all the maintenance costs.
Well thats cool for [people who sit around doing nothing with there carriers, my
Thats fine for those who sit around doing nothing with them, but I use them quiet a lot like traveling around etc going colonia and back one of my carriers has done over 360,000ly. You missing my point entirely what ever we do with them either sitting around doing nothing or moving the fleet or providing a shuttle service to and from Colonia to Bubble we not getting the FULL use out of them and we paying millions a week and we cant even sell the carriers etc so the maintenance should be reduced to something like 10%. About covid thing, this is not an in game issue like for example lack of tritium as there is in Colonia, its an out of game issue ie frontier disabled them not us and as for stationary market things its bugged as well probably because the carriers disabled, I know this has been reported.You're not paying additional wear and tear costs for jumping
