AFKing causes PVE ships to die, cripples the might of the null sec industrialist revolution and generally makes New Eden a very dangerous and psychologically torturous place to live. No one should be held prisoner simply by another persons lack of presence. This is textbook cyber bullying.

I think this is the number one issue that keeps people safe in high-sec.

Why haven't CCP done anything about this yet?

You might say that you can ignore them, or even go next door but without a scout you could meet another ship at the jump gate and that would be devastating and we all know the second you let your guard down then the ship will stop being afk and blow you.

Don't jump gates without eyes

Don't belt rat/ mine when hostiles in local, carry on mission running and or running sites if you are sure someone is afk cloaked, and just hit D-Scan throughout your mission/ complex, warp to a safe if you see scanner probes and cloak.

Putting AFK cloakys in systems is legit tactic, **** off your enemy's, drive them out of an area.

I wouldn't want to jump gates with eyes.

Gates with eyes are freaking me out. They're staring at me.

Cyno's lit, bridge is up, but one pilot won't be jumping home.

I wouldn't want to jump gates without eyes either. I really like being able to see, and I really doubt I'd become Daredevil if I couldn't.

Not that i'm the sharpest chisel in the toolbox, but if I have an AFK cloaky in system, I move next door.

If it follows me it wasnt AFK

I seriously shot coffee out of my nose... You need to read your **** before you hit that post button lol...Shocked Thanks for that you made my day.

The reality of Eve is that, if you don't love it like it is today, you should probobly go ahead and unsub.

Screw the OP. My bot lets me ship spin in my hanger 23-7, automatically changing ships every hour. It's not hurting anyone that I can AFK ship-spin all day. Sod off!

But if "AFKing is immoral" shouldn't that fit right into EvE?

I'm gone tell your mom (when she gets back) that you're using her account and then you'll be in for some real spanking. Twisted


Seriously tough, why this nonsense? Fancying another ban? Shocked
Or just bored?

PS: I didn't follow this or any other of your threads today since, well they're not worth it. The complaints posted are so old and put down byso many other qq-ers its not funny anymore.

Or are you hunting for new targets?
