Hi Nulbears.

1 No need to change cloak mechanic.
2 I unsub 3 of my accounts if any change coming.

thnxbay.


You ask why ?

Guys you forget about one importand thing, to all those afk cloak whiners.

Cloaking ships are most cool feature in game, if you dont get cloak yet is time to train it.

No difirence betwen AFK cloaking and active cloaking because even som one is afk you dont know this! he may back and decloak in critical moment for you... While not afk how you know he afk while cloak ? this make no sense.

What the point of He is afk and i cant see a cloaked ship ? Should a cloaked ship decloak because you want, or shoud be always visible while this ship got ability to use cloak...

Come on... To all nullbears, go to mining ore in empire or do lvl 4! if you want fell safe... 0.0 is designed to be dangerus place.

Train a manticore go to nullsec hunt nullbears, profir? lack of tactic-dps get a friend in second manticore or any stealth

bomber- profit ?

Where has your irrational hate for CCP gone?

The way CCP has been neglecting afk-cloaking for now is simply unacceptable and we demand that this issue will be fixed immediately. Suggestions for a better cov ops balancing:

Anathema: + 5% bonus to cheese per cov. ops skill level
Buzzard: : +5% bonus to lettuce and tomatoes
Helios: +5% bonus to peanutbutter and jelly
Cheetah: +5% bonus to bacon.

Maybe the Cheetah would be a little OP and needs to be nerfed a bit, so it should be tested thoroughly on SiSi first before going to TQ


So if you want a BLT fly a Cheetah with your alt in a Buzzard.

I prefer the old Elvis sandwhich peanutbutter banana and mayo but only while im afk mining. AFK cloaking I usually go with the standard BLT.

Frankly, my dear? Ham, mustard and 3-day-old bread. That little bit of stale combined with the beauty that is mustard makes for a damn good sandwich. Doesn't matter if the ham is mouldy, so long as you stick enough mustard on and then eat some pure chalk - dat neutralisation reaction will make you poop. Fast.

"We will create the introduction thread if that is requested by the community. Also, we will have an ISD Seminar about the CCL team in the coming weeks in which you can ask your questions about the CCL team and provide some constructive feedback to us." - Countless pages of locked threads and numerous permabanned accounts later, change is coming.

So, question, if afk cloaking in a covops demands sandwiches, does afk cloaking in a black ops demand Haute cuisine?

AFK cloaking is not a problem.. and doesn't need to be addressed by the devs. The "AFK" are no threat.

If the devs are tired of these repetitous threads they need to find a way to remove the cloaked from local in low and null sec, that way no one will be able to identify an AFK person who is cloaked.

  - remove the cloaked from local; free intel is the real problem, not  "afk" cloaking -

You just can't go wrong with a Grilled Cheese. For a bonus, add already cooked chicken or super crispy bacon for texture and flavor! Pirate

Then rinse it down with a glass of forum warrior tears about how OP AFK Cloaking is.

It's funny how nullseccers complain to the highsec carebears about "mining AFK is not allowed!" but don't mind if they can cloak AFK.

Please don't nerf AFK mining nor cloaking or anything.... if anything, buff them all.
The tears. They are so sweet :D

With the rise of AFK cloaking, I've found that I'm not sure what sort of sandwich to get while I go AFK cloaked in a system. Do most of you go for a turkey and tomato on rye, or would ham and swiss on a warm roll be a better option?

I feel as if I might encourage changes to the Guild Wars 2 release date if I go with the roast beef and provolone, so I'm just going to go ahead and say AFK cloaking should be buffed. Right now, you can see your own ship, but when you AFK cloak, you should be invisible from yourself too. Make a minigame where you have to find your spaceship before you can uncloak when you come back with that dripping meatball submarine sandwich.

In other news, the launcher positions on the Hookbill look terrible.


LOL this post totally made my day. I totally dont get how AFK Cloaking is even relevant to anything anyway. Even in my version of eve it would e a non issue as there would be no "local" channel to see who is insystem.

And then you ice the cake with the hookbill comment. I tool the launchers off mine, looked incredibly dumb with them on.

I like a good turkey and swiss on rye with brown mustard. Toasted bread is a must, of course.

Ugh, sammiches... Time to bring some pie in here.

Place the dough in a plate, add some mustard in the bottom, cover generously with tuna then a layer or sliced tomatoes, top it off with some Emmental and place it in the oven pre-heated th7 for 20 to 25 minutes depending on your oven.
Make sure you have a chilled bottle of rosé, like a Buzet Le Lys and when the dough is well tanned, take it out and lay cozy on the terrace enjoying the sunset.


This sounds absolutely heavenlyBear

An amount that depends on whether they have sell orders somewhere and whether they are being filled.

Fair enough.

Phrased better:

How much money do you think people make directly from AFK Cloaking while AFK Cloaking?
