Putting a few cans around your bubble isn't what this thread is about. This thread is about people making bubbles of drones. Go make some low sec drone bubbles and let's see how long you're able to keep playing.

I frequently use jet cans to decloak people on gates. This is a valid strategy that tons of people across EVE use, never heard of anyone getting in trouble for it. I have heard of people getting in trouble for trying to cause server lag with drones/shuttles/jet cans etc., but I thought that all went the way of the dinosaur with TiDi.

During the 'Burn Jita' event hosted by the Goons, the very very first thing they did was unload 1000's of empty shuttles in space all around Jita 4-4. I petitioned it, and never heard anything about it. So if anyone gets in trouble for any amount of objects in space in today's TiDi EVE, well that's total double standards.


The reason you never heard anything about it is because it was a clusterfung. I imagine your petition got buried at the bottom of a stack of 1000s and by the time they found it the whole thing had gone into rage mode and players were unsubbing and swearing and cursing, and spewing all sorts of filth on the forums and everywhere else, so they just looked at it and tossed it in the pile with the rest of them.

btw, making TiDi happen is causing excessive load on the server and creating lag, albeit managable lag, with regard to other players. TiDi is intended to counter lag generated from doing what CCP wants you to do, (Fleet Fights and massive amounts of people in one place), not to compensate for 1 person and their 400 drones, cans, and other smeg.

Even so, I think it is a case by case thing, and somewhat at the discretion of the person looking at it. What else are you going to do?

I'd be surprised if it is Eve Uni. It's those unicorn guys and they seem to have a pretty good stranglehold on Aridia. Lol

Only way it is Eve Uni is if one of their cloaky scouts got pwnd in hier and now they are butthurt and spamming the tactic all over the place.

Re if it's an exploit, never cared to find out. Doesn't seem to me according to my personal logic.
