Player Features and Ideas Discussion

If you mined alone without taking precautions in an MMO game that is PvP centric, then you only have yourself to blame if you DIAF.

Bad players have been in this game since day one, CCP don't need to move anything for them. Either use the tools provided, or move back to high sec.

ahahahah.
Mining without precaution?

On my computer, checking all time what's happend and intel.

WHAT I CAN DO?
Call an Army for check me?

If the GhostCamper hot drop his mate, what i do? Call an Army my all farming time?
You're clearly guy who sell his afk time on ghost camping...


CCP just don't understand how it destroyed the game, and you troll this topic cause you know they will understand and nerf it... And you will lost money :)

Here, use a fitting like this, and don't fear the reaper....

WoW Nice, You make more money than Empire?
Please, stop troll.

So you can't defend your own stance and instead resort to calling me a troll?

Let me point out the obvious here. If you mine alone with a neutral in local chat, without forming a fleet and having said fleet join you in mining and protection, then you only have yourself to blame. It's not rocket science.

As far as bumping this thread is concerned, I'll let you in on a little secret. This isn't the first thread on the topic, it won't be the last and this thread much like others before, will auto lock at some point.

Ahh, gone from being a troll to being a n00b. [ice burn]

Oh and by the way, I was mining in fleets in null, before Alliances were even an official mechanic. This was back when Apocs were the mining kings FYI. But thanks for the laugh.

If you wish to play solo in an MMO, then you accept the risks. If you log out your accounts, then that's your choice and problem. Not ours.

C'mon Mag's, Nikk, stop being trolls and admit that AFK cloaky ships are the most dangerous thing in nullsec, and allow the poor nullbear miner his peace of mind to mine in peace...



or something.. :)

Thanks man, made me laugh.

I'm for the status quo. I like the addition of psychological warfare.

But you really should understand the mechanic being used here, before making any judgements on what should be looked at.

The only way a single cloaked ship, sitting at a safe with the pilot AFK, can shut down operations in any system is if the residents of that system allow themselves to be so terrified of an unknown and uncertain threat that they never undock/unpos themselves. You have no way to know if he's AFK or not, or if the ship has a cyno or not. Any threat there exists solely in your mind, and as long as the pilot remains AFK and his ship remains cloaked he cannot follow through on any threat.

A threat that cannot be followed through on is no threat. A threat that is unknown and undefined is no threat. It's all a matter of perceived risk. YOU choose not to risk losing your shiny mining barge because that neut in local MIGHT be paying attention, and he MIGHT have a cyno. The only way the threat can be actualized is when the ship uncloaks on grid with you... at which point he is NO LONGER AFK OR CLOAKED.

There's no threat while he IS AFK or cloaked, and by the time you actually see danger, he's neither AFK nor cloaked.

You're aiming your posts at the wrong problem.
