Okay so we have cyno jammers to keep the capitals out right? How about a simple cloak nerf.
Nothing totally cloak destroying, just a simple way to deal with AFK cloakers, and in some cases if used well, a way to combat cloak gangs.

Flash Scan Array, a structure you put on a POS, requires sovereignty so it' can't just be put anywhere.
Simply it fires off a flash scan that decloaks ships in the system.

To balance this, it could take fuel and be activated manually.
Or it could be automatic and on a timer, as to allow a tactical way around it in some cases.
To be fair it should uncloak friendlys as well.

The people this would effect most are AFK cloakers who are only seeking to keep people on there toes while they fall asleep in a safe spot. annoying and not a very legitimate tactic, as if you want to disrupt operations, you should have to be at the keyboard to do it, not taking a name or eating dinner.

Alright that's it, I'm ready for your angry comments AFK cloakers, no hard feelings.

A quote from CCP Spitfire
1) This is a breeding ground for ideas. If someone has an idea, listen to it. If you don't like it, think about why. Constructive feedback is good. Posting "That's an awful idea," is not constructive.

Maybe it's me because it is 2:30 in the morning but that comment made no sense...
I'm going to get some coffee and try reading that again...

EDIT: Okay, still makes no sense, mind elaborating on that a little.

Exactly, hence the one liner.

Did you really read my post ore just chose to rant?

How would it effect wormhole space? it requires Sov in order to anchor and online.
In no way would that effect wormholers, you can't hold Sov in wormholes

AFK Cloakers can whine all they want, this idea is meant to hurt the practice of doing nothing.

Also in no way is null sec "safe"

As for risk/reward, if you want to camp a system all day in a stealth bomber and do nothing all day, then you should have to sit there and make sure you don't get killed. you risk your ship, your reward is that people are on edge all the time.
Where as without this you risk nothing and only gain reward, i'd say that is more broken.

Also you are the one who is being insulting, I posted my idea, and you started to call people maggots and calling my post drivel, how about you be civil before talking about people starting name calling.

Thought i'd stick that in as a reminder to people, not expecting much affect.
Yes I did post it after most the current posts.

You forgot the bit where points one through four form an extremely amusing infinite loop of trolling.

'Oh, hey, look. A timer.'

*sets macro to activate cloak thirty seconds after said timer, goes afk*
