I´m going to steal your time again:

As quite a couple tossing ideas around to make the lazy life even more lazy, here´s my idea:

I´d like to see wartargets added automaticly to my buddylist. Seperated by colour (add more colours! Wartarget1, wartarget2 and so on). Ofc they have to be labeled aswell. While every corp of an alliance gets his own label and in addition all again into the alliance label.

Oh, they need to be watchlisted aswell. So i can see if they´re online or not.

The keyword is: automatic.

Right now i add every member of a target by hand. Time wasted on paperwork while i could go out to shoot them.


Yeah, lots of stuff. But for 50m baseprice for the first war this is the service we deserve from concord.

No. You can't see a corporation's member list, why would that be any different in time of war? Part of what makes war fun is intel gathering before it starts. So do your job, search killboard for player names, don't be lazy and stop asking for CCP to do your work.

If you're gonna post here thinking your idea is the greatest thing since bacon and that it will save EVE and possibly all humankind with it, you're gonna have a bad time.

Oh yeah going to a third party website and copy pasting a list of a hostile corp/alliance's members into your buddy list? Yea, that is exactly what makes war fun... Oh wait, you're wrong... The fun part of war is blowing **** up, not dropping an alliance's name into a search field on a website...

Auto populating on to a watch list. No, Go get intel, do some googling, drop a spy in target corp / alliance. Do what you need to do to get information. Its called WAR, you don't always get free answers, you have to go find it, look for it and earn it. Then Blow them up.
This is a sandbox box. IT is like the way it is because they try to make it realistic.

No, you just THINK you can.

EveWho is not guaranteed reliable, and certainly won't be accurate when people start hopping in and out of the corp that 'decced you. Use at your own risk.

Oh, and ....

No. It's already been explained to you why not.

Oh now, you see what you just did there? You shot yourself in the foot.

evewho is a service made possible by some programmer(s) who inteligently used the API provided by CCP. All it does is maintain its own database of characters and fetches their corp history from time to time, the same thing you should do. It's a good example of the unique EVE community. Some players are doing the work for you. You should thank them and stop being lazy.

WTF?

2 posting in here +1 each others post.

1 is hiding behind an alt, the other is just a whiney poodle.

[EDIT]:

I´m realy sorry Nighttrax. Just checked your combat history.

2 are hiding behind an alt, both are whiney poodles.


Also:

You haven´t killed or lost a single ship in highsec for at least a resonable ammount of time.

It seems you´re butthurt all the way. Maybe we are (or were) at war with your main?

Now why would I be losing ships in hisec? And why would I hide behind an alt? Seems to me, you're the one who's butthurt. If you can't handle criticism, then don't post.

Well, it just seems you dont know what you´re talking about. The kill with least people involved (excluding the victim) with you on it is: 4.

Pretty much a heroic fight vs. a pod.

Amusing...someone who does wardecs or other assorted bits of fun has the tables turned. And now wants it set to easy mode because of it. Now that's irony.

Considering the fact that pretty much the only stuff you have ever killed is mining barges/pve fit ships (only when you outnumber them) and poorly fit pvp ships (again only when you outunumber them+have a bigger ship) You aren't allowed to talk about people knowing what they are talking about.

I´m not out there for gf, i´m out there to fullfill my clients needs.
And if my targets are mining then so be it.

Astroniomix, your corphistory looks awesome. Changing corp like underwear? Or, just a guess, everytime they get wardeced you slip out into another one?

Sidenote:

according to what you said i shall take that you don´t know what you´re talking about after checking your killboard? 180 kills, 97 losses (on battleclinic) since 2009.

While your biggest solokill was a pod velator (keep in mind that i didn´t watch every single kill).

You truly know the recieving side.

Well, point given. You should see always the memberlist of a specific corp. Wear your corptags with pride.

the lack of kill record could also be from intel gathering and avoidance btw,

it doesnt matter either way. you already have the tools. use them.

you are making yourself out to be less and less of rational person making a rational question, and more and more into a lazy whiny ganker.

what you actually are is not of issue. but throwing temper tantrums on the forums because someone disagreed with you, is a bit, well, you know.

bringing their kb record as proof of fact for anything is weak. (unless its actually about the kb record, which this is not)

Why should it be easier for wardeccers to find their targets? when they are the aggressors and thus the burden of action is on them?

Its not possible to please all the people all the time, but it sure as hell is possible to Displease all the people, most of the time.

Reread please, starting from top, compare when i answered with kb-stats to whom and what they said before.
You might be realising that i just was fighting fire with fire.

Also:

Wouldnt it be easier to avoid getting killed by seeing who´s online?
I guess the advantage of the defender > attacker... or do you think i m the only one with this profession?
