Player Features and Ideas Discussion

Most people usually apologise when they made a mistake but hey you know whatever.

There are plenty of "important people" in null who post on here with their mains. If they aren't willing to put their name to an opinion then they shouldn't spout it off and when challenged claim they have loads of pvp experience or have lived in nullsec for years etc. It's like a company telling it's investors it's making loads of profit but never showing them the books: Sure they say they are doing well, but how can you know?

If you're posting on an alt fair enough, personally I think it's sad you feel the need to disconnect your "main" EVE identity from your opinions as they are that out of line with the community you fear retribution(™). However if you do post with an alt the "lol my main is like soooooooo experienced and what ur on about, you just can't tell as this is an alt" is a boring, predictable and stupid argument that often isn't true.

LOL - that is cute what you did there... adding in your own quotes under my name. At least we have put the limit of you debate abilities and maturity to bed, as well as your need to desperately claw at things you know nothing about.

Which is my alt, which is my main... irrelevant. Do you want me to post here with all four of my toons? Do you think claiming I dont have one is going to want me to expose it? By the way... which one IS my main? Do you realize they are all played by the same individual? Do you think somehow posing with a different character name is going to change my views on the subject, or give you anymore insight to my experience in null? Where did i even say I was a PVP elitist? But then again holding on to assumption and putting words in someone's mouth is classic to those who cannot manage a discussion on point.

Mirima Thurander is correct, Besides the fact I STARTED this discussion with this toon, I have nothing outside of this discussion to prove to you and there is no clear reason I should expose the advantage of any of my other alts for the sake of a forum war. Is posting with a different name magically going to change your need to disregard facts or make any fewer assumption? He is also right in concluding that if you really knew anything about nullsec politics, it would not even be an (irrelevant) question. I think even the nullbears who don't agree with me on the removal of local can agree on that. All those other people you mentioned that do "post with their main," again, how do you assume their intentions, or they dont have an alt making counter claims, or are hidden somewhere with other motives. Please, you don't know sh!t. Besides, this Toon still has nullbear ties to risk, so once again your assumptions are WAY off on many levels.

Either way, I have no idea why it would make a difference since you are hell-bent on fabricating facts and changing the topic anyway, why dont you just change my name when you quote me to an alt... sorry... main name of your choice.

tl;dr

Muah!

What a typical pubbie alt who's never been into nullsec response.

It's easy to tell who the guys are who don't live in null sec because they are the ones who throw a hissy fit over words as they've never had someone actually blow up their ship

Give local a limited range. Say, 500km? Or maybe even 3 or 4 AU? Heck, just base it off signature radius if you want. Bigger ships spot easier on local at longer ranges. Little ships with small sig can evade detection easier. Ships that actively broadcast (by using local chat) get a spike in their detection radius for a minute or two (kind of like a submarine using active sonar).

That way you could still talk smack and spot targets via local when they are within a certain range, but beyond that range everything is still an unknown factor.

You could even apply that same system to WH space without screwing things up - heck, might even improve on it.

He'll follow it up with a suggestion to boost rewards (thus breaking the eve economy some more), finding cloaked ships (thus breaking wormholes) and reducing hisec rewards (thus causing everyone.gif to quit).

And with regards to local, so is null sec (except for one very minor detail covered in my signature).

the system is broken because killing ratters isn't absolutely effortless?

SCREW YOUR NULLSEC AGENDA
I WON'T BE A PART OF YOUR SYSTEM
MAAAAAAAAAAAN

no local is fine in w-space where its mechanics limit blobs.

In nullsec where a wild blob can appear out of nowhere, no local is just bad.

in b4 "nerf blobs", blobs are part of the nullsec experience, deal with it.

the only ones complaining about nullsec local are pirates who do nothing but kill ratters, and from the looks of most killboards, they dont have any trouble finding ratters to kill even with nullsec local.
