Hye all,

i need to know once and for all for sure if logon traps are bannable/petitionable or anything.
What i am speaking of is having a bunch of guys logged off in space or in station but on the character selection screen, ready to log on and join the fight potentially tipping the balance.

What rule would that be breaking? Seems fine to me.

They are not bannable or petitionable as far as I know.

Players are allowed to log-off and log-on when or where they chose. It would be a hard ask to ban people for this.

There may have been an issue from the past IIRC when mass logins would lag the node allowing the new logging in people the have there way with those already camping.

I have not like others have stated heard or issues recently.

Log on traps are perfectly legitimate, even if they are a symptom of lack of testicular fortitude....

How on earth could that be against the rules?

He might have it confused with the old debates about logoffski not being ok, or maybe he is just one of those retards flying JF's through high sec during war dec's?
