I can't believe people are bitching about the autopilot NOT warping you to 0 and automatically jumping? Do you want the game to hold your hand, too? The autopilot is a convenience in high/mid sec, but you really believe you should be able to fly around low sec space while AFK and have nothing to worry about? Please go play WoW on a PvE server, carebears.
Who said anything about low sec? If you're going to get all insulting you need to muster up some reading comprehension first:

So if I want to autopilot through a bunch of high security space while I go grab a snack I should be able to do so. Getting "punished" for using autopilot was the last straw.
It's NOT a convenience in high sec (let alone mid). That's where I got podded. I had a 12 jump run back to home at the end of my night. I stuck things on autopilot through high sec space while I got a drink or something. When I got back to the computer I'm dead and like 2 days of work in the game was gone. Screw that. How is that fun by any stretch of the imagination?
Sure you can manually warp to 0 from gate to gate and it's actually faster getting places than autopilot. But look I work all day in front of a computer and I don't feel like doing it when I get home. You have to go beyond like 5 gates and frankly that crap gets BORING. So you should be able to autopilot and do something else for a few (I'm not asking for a free pass through Sec 0 space here, but Sec .9+ ?)
I shouldn't have to sit in front of a frickin computer watching it autopilot itself for 30 minutes to get somewhere. It's an utterly retarded game concept. When left with my own thoughts the first thing that comes to mind is "I'm paying for this??".
One time I literally put things in Windowed mode and played a different game on the second monitor while I was waiting. Yeah, let that sink in... Eve sucks so bad that I had to play another game at the same time to remain entertained.
