Should just have you removed from local when you cloak, now they can bear in peace!

There have been a number of solutions to Afk cloakers.

Bait them and kill them with whatever they bring in via the cyno - (this is the tricky part as you never really know what they have until you get them to do it)

as for game changes i think there has been a lot of talk over removing local but i don't think thats the fix. most MMO's do other things like for example

1. afk timers after 30 mins of inactivity - auto logoff - blizzard do this, plus many others
2. in the case of planetside 2 there snipers have cloaks and theres use energy to maintain the cloak once this runs out you decloak until you rebuild cap to re-enable it again (personally i like this one as the bigger the cap / ship the longer you get to cloak)

both of these i feel CCP should look at as solutions and i'm sure they have been suggested before.

No, please not this.

The first one, maybe. That is if cloaking needed nerfed at all, which I don't think it does.

Solution or fix for... what problem exactly?

Don't be scared, because being afk is not a crime.

Hahaha... so a Covert OPs ship, (Frigate), will have the shortest duration cloak.....

That sure is a well thought out idea you have there! /sarcasm

I don't want cloakers nerfed, But I would like some form of a counter or way to reveal them. It can be as bad as the disruptor protectors that give +2 scramble protection at some ridiculous cost, but something to be useable would be nice.

I'm really tired of people literally sitting all day in a pilgrim at a relic or a data site or just some rando guy coming in our turf and not being able to even find him with combat scanners. Doesn't even make sense to me that combat scanners can't find them, don't they detect mass? Visible or not Dark matter is detecable don't see why invisible ships wouldn't be.
