Make it so that the button timer doesn't start until after you've killed a FW WT in the plex

EDIT: Also, take the PVE element entirely out of the plexes

Yeah, that sounds totally unexploitable....

As though the system we currently have isn't exploited daily......

So I guess everyone is happy with the current situation of no-guns fitted, cloaky plexing ships as being the exploit du jour.

I don't think that is the problem with you solution.

If the timer doesn't start until you kill a faction war target in the plex, why would a defender ever go in a plex the enemy opened?

The only enemies coming in the plex to potentially get killed and therefore allow the timer to run would be the plexers own alts.

There are other solutions to the problem you describe though.

1) require Kill all npcs.
2) give pvpers notifications when plexes are entered so plexes can't be ninjaed
3) after someone is chased out have the timer they ran start counting down automatically.

Make faction war occupancy pvp instead of pve https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=53815&#post53815
