Since a cloaker is able to with zero effort require people to spend hours and tons of effort trying to bait the cloaker, they should be required to use effort to actually scan their targets down. It wasn't too much of a problem before the anom nerf, but now good systems are rare.

Why do high-sec people get to safely run missions with wartargets in system by watching dscan, AND make more isk while doing so?

Obligatory "make local like WH space local" post.

Surrender is still your slightly less painful option.

Looks like you have no idea how ganking, pvp or nullsec works. Don't expect much from someone in an NPC corp. If I get 10 friends, they will simply observe that get more pvp ships to counter the pve ships.

The problem is not fighting people off, the problem is that in 1.5 seconds, you can have a supercarrier or on top of you with no warning, and asking people to continuously be in groups that can fight off a supercarrier is ridiculous, even though I know some of you are thinking that as you read this.
