Player Features and Ideas Discussion

And we'll be calling you a whining crybabby every time.

A bug. That's your current attack vector, is it?

An exploit is the beter term.And it is teh main point of attack unless you didnt noticed with all the trolling pilling up.

Wait, I apologize, but I could not pass this up, it's just too good.

HOW do you KNOW they are AFK?

Your description of this makes it very clear you cannot see them, or what they are doing. Clearly they did not actually tell you they are AFK, unless you are willing to believe they have trained pets sending messages for them.

At a guess, your criteria is that they have been online for extended periods, and you have not been able to communicate with them.

This does not make them AFK. It just makes them quiet neighbors. With such a gorgeous backdrop, they might have a soothing image of local nebulae on their bigscreen, as they meditate.

Why are you trying to bother them?

http://www.eveonline.com/features/castor/detail.asp#updatedshiptechnology refers to "Cloaking while targeting others will result in the targets being unlocked". I assume that means cloaking has been in the game since at least december 2003, if not since the game was first made.

So you're trying to tell me that it's been an exploit since then? Are you really going to try to go down that path?

Also fro the same Article on Griefing and Exploiting:

'Game mechanics
Taking advantage of the systems that make up the gameplay. A game mechanics exploit is not a bug—it is working as designed, but at the same time is not working as intended.'

What's in it for me to make you happy?

Furthermore, you are assuming they are inactive. All you know with any degree of certainty, is that they have not chosen to communicate with you.

They could be quite busy warping around, sightseeing the gorgeous vistas, enjoying the fabulous graphics.

MAYBE, they are watching you, and are reporting your actions to their respective fleets, anticipating that you will justify their patience.

Perhaps, they have noticed you on whenever they are on, and you are just witness to a coincidence of timing.

You have yet to provide any substantive evidence to show they are actually AFK. Just a circumstantial suspicion based on their presence.

the dude is either a fu*king rtard or just trolling. Stop responding to him.

Please point me to the bug and or exploit.
While you are at it, please indicate how many players have been banned, through using said bug and or exploit.

I ask because obviously you either work for, or own CCP. Why else would you claim to know what they consider is, or is not, a bug and or exploit.

Thank you kindly.

This Logic is so broken that my brain wants to commit suicide.
The argument that according to you local is an exploit, so it makes another exploit ok, its so damaging to the world of philosophy that i can hear Plato and Descartes crying in their beds like little girls.But lets play the game.

Local channel had, has, or will have nothing to do with the problem we discuss in this thread.I undestand that after so many pages, its kinda difficult to follow it, but for some reason, when you see a AFK thread you assume that I am whining about see in him in Local.No.I could have seen him in D-scan just once, or he could make attacks in the system all the time and never jump thru gates.So his presence is known even if there was never a local.

The problem,for the last time,it is not that Iam seeing him in local.Please stop using this argument because you sound like little kids that his friend took his sweetroll.If you have problems finding counterarguments, then dont post.

If you think Local is an exploit, create your campaign to fix it if you have the brainmater to do so.Here I can give you the title also 'CCP Change Local-Summer Expansion 2012 Campaign'.

If you just want to troll, then it is simply sad.
