This is true, I've just confirmed it.

Fish, meet hook. Hook, fish.

Tell someone you love them today, because life is short. But scream it at them in Esperanto, because life is also terrifying and confusing.

The problem is differentiating between no display of pilots in system, and actually having the chat channel. What most people want, is simply local to behave like it does in wormhole space. Noone shows up in local unless they talk, but you can still talk/smack.

We all know its a joke, but i will link this quote for anyone who starts an anti AFK cloaking thread.

I actually petitioned as soon as I read that. Im not allowed to post the response on the forums but I am allowed to paraphrase it.

-Yes, Local is being removed in Highsec and lowsec. Local will be retained in Nullsec but only in NPC owned space.
-Local will now be a tool avail as a IHUB upgrade for Sov holding alliances. Specifics to be released with next Dev Blog.
-All chats that are not player owned or owned by corp/alliance will be delayed also. This means that constellation and incursion chats will now be delayed mode only.
-Cloaked players will not appear in non-delayed chats while cloaked.
-Players that are docked willnot appear in non-delayed chats.
-On-Grid chats are being implemented. all players appearing on the same grid/overview will now have a non-delayed instant chat that will pop up or be constantly updated. Details to be released with next Dev Blog.
-New buttons will be added to instantly block or report people in all delayed chats.
-A new non-delayed Dev response channel will be implemented. You will be able to access this channel for 60 seconds at a time. This is to keep the numbers in channel at a minimum to ensure quick responses to questions deemed no petition worthy.

I hope this answers some questions.

Its strange that they do this now when there whole argument in the past was that Wormholes are for those who intend to play the game more hardcore than others?

Accompanied by a more reasonable intel tool obviously but yeah

Replacing local with an intel tool that accomplishes the same thing seems rather pointless. It's a lot of work to achieve the same result in the end.

you can still smacktalk, the difference is is that you don't know who you are smacktalking until they pipe up.

So you're for allowing cynos in wormholes (bypassing mass limits and such as well)? I mean, in the name of game balance.
