One of the amazing things that bombers have provided is a relatively skill UN-intensive way for smaller groups to make decisive changes in fight.

With the changes that ccp has presented, it seems that they are ruining the ability for smaller groups to counter the ridiculous blobs that the larger groups can present.


I find it rather distasteful that CCP has locked the feedback thread rather than listen to those of us who use these ships to even the playing field.


I am absolutely against these changes, specifically the decloaking within 2km. This, like adding timers to change force projection, is simply a band-aid fix. You can do better.

Larger threads get locked periodically to purge what people refer to as "crap posting" or other clever euphemism that people use.

Read the last post before throwing up these kinds of accusations.

That is lazy moderation. Once more, they can do better.

Skill un-intensive. Is that another way of saying lazy? Because it sounds like it.

No, it's basically saying that even a bunch of trained chimps can do it.
Or in other words, majority of EVE can't do it.

CCP is addressing the relative ease these fleets gets around and apply DPS.

I've been apart of several bomber ops, and I can understand how OP they are.

CCP has a nasty habit of locking threads and deleting posts that someone like yourself would vomit. CCP has the full right to do so, if you feel like they don't and your voice is higher then theirs, feel free to file a petition. Someone else has already suggested applying for a ISD position, where you can happily unlock threads you don't like to have locked.


IB4L for discussing moderation!

If it's locked, read the last post.

Actually, read all of the posts before you post a reply, you could just quote someone else with the same feedback to support it or add some extra flavour to the feedback.
