Blue tears with possibility of red showers

I recently got pooped on because I used twitch to stream.

Basically I had inadvertently left the stream on while I was docked in a -1.0 system.with my local chat open. This allowed anyone who was watching to tell who was docked in system. I also accidentally left the intel channel open.

This got me to thinking that a perfect solution to cloaky camping is to get an alt into a corp that has standings in one of these prime ratting systems, leave the corp or alliance and just twitch stream your new frenemies. This would be a great way to also help hot droppers and would be awoxxers to create content.

The benefits of being able to do this are pretty great. You don't have to spend a fortune on a cloak. You don't have to worry about risking a ship. You don't have to worry about an accidental internet outage causing you to be found. On the downside people would know when you were active again.

Man that would create a new fountain of tears unlike anything thats been seen before.

+1 for sure.

They say most of your brain shuts down on the EvE forums. All but the impatient side, and the sarcastic side. No wonder I'm still awake.

Sounds like a game exploit to me, but I know little of that kind of thing.

I guess players are going to keep using this word forever now, when they should use the word action.
Calling action content makes you sound like people in a reality show referring to themselves as quality TV.
Yeah and this has been done.

Not really. Exploits would be something like exploding your ship for more insurance money than it cost to make.

Oh, I perfectly understand, Hal Morsh — a mission like this requires courage, skill, and heroism… qualities you are clearly lacking. Have you forgotten you're one of the bloody immortals!?

I'm no cloaky camping expert, but shouldn't you be actually lighting a covert cyno from time to time?

Pardon Moi? You're kidding, right? The insinuation being I was killed by one of these goofs now I'm secretly complaining? Really. I can say "FOAD" if need be. See?

Shall I parse it out for those who are lost in imaginary land? OOOOOKAY. You log. You create content. You leave station. You create content. You move your ship. You create content. You jump through a gate. You create content. SO.

Your definition of "content" is rather....LACKING.

I fart. I create content. I take a dump. I create content.

IS THAT CLEAR ENOUGH FOR YOU NOW?

Geez. Subtle intellectuality is lost on some folks, I guess.

I wouldn't call AFK cloaking "action" and some of the reds we encounter? They behave more like AI. So, "game content" something to shoot at and clear from your system.

The tears being generated are done so with the content that was created....

Unsure why the argument here is about content generation and not about how much more cost effective and safe it is to station sit....


Also is it wrong to tell the reds passing through a system you are in where the best place to find local ratters in order to save yourself?
