Ships & Modules

So many words and yet you still didn't manage to actually say what the problem is. So... what's the problem?

Posting in an "Nerf AFK cloaking" thread #seriouslythisagainwtf?

1) so your mad that someone hauling is using a cloaky alt and a cloaky ship to get through null/low and make his life easier
a- if the biz dude wanted to lose his wares im sure he would jump blind without cloak but he seems smarter then that have you tried new tactics or just mad you cant get that lil bassssterd

2) also you appear to be mad at site crashing and reaping the rewards because a guy cloaks when he sees you and smacks in local
a- you make the isk off the site he loses money technically you win by denying him what he wanted if you want PvP from the PvE fella try new tactics (refer to answer above for details)

so cloak is working as intended whats the issue?

"good good let the hurt flow through you"

Fixed...

The problem isn't having a random person in your local, who is most likely in a very fragile ship, and really not a threat at all...

The problem is, you know there's someone out there. And your imagination has dreamt up such a scary Boogeyman, that you can't help but dock up and wet yourself until the scary face goes away.

Leave High and Low Sec Local like it is. As soon as someone enters system, their name and face pop up. This reflects Concord and the Empires monitoring traffic.

Change Null Sec to match Wormhole space. Nobody shows up until they speak up. I'd personally push it further, and have the names disappear after they've been silent for 15min, but that's just me.

Then all the "hard core" 0.0 care bears will quit crying about the scary man hiding in the closet.

.

Eliminate local and / or tie local to your d-scan. Then their presence won't bother you anymore. You can also just ignore local and achieve the same result.

Yet another thread whicch can be paraphrased thus: "Ublublublublublublublublub"

the problem is his corp and or alliance is filled with people too lazy (or stupid) to keep tabs on an afk cloaky to never now when they are actually afk. Not that hard. First place to check is kb's. In the oceanic TZ, the afk is always dying or seeing lots of ninjya cyno gang killls USTZ prime time....probably not on 1800 in say Australia.

Or someone goes oh yeah, I saw that dude move systems 3 hours before dt. Saw him on a gate before I could do anything and he booked. Rolls in an arazu. Little bit of long term memory and you figure out who is actually there.

Or you get lucky (and unlucky) like I have and ccp has an emergency reboot around 1500 japan TZ. had this happen a couple time That AFK cloaky did not show up until after the real DT which runs 2000 in japan tz. Saw him for days after and jsut did not have the heart to tell him the jig was up. I actually liked him there. I neglected to tell people of my findings. Kept a nice belt system all to myself that way lol. I know it goes against what I said in the first part. But all the damn carriers took the good crap and never said go on and have a go next reset. Needed to make my isk somehow lol.
