also, back to 'valid' afkness ... hence someone's suggestion earlier about maybe being able to scan down a cloaky only enough to land on grid with them... if they aren't afk, big deal, they run away, if they are afk for too long, however, old fashioned 'decloaking' methods can then be used to find and pop them... justified reward for, say, staying logged in while going to bed, no?

Beware of AFK Cloakers. They are the Vanguard of any serious invasion.

They will catch you unawares, just like many clever kittens who pounce on you when you are quietly reading your favorite Eve Chronicle.

AFK Cloakers, and kittens, should be banned from Eve Online. They are, or only leave, unwanted things in the Sandbox.

You should see the street I live on. Myself and CCP Maiden Steel regularly get cornered by fluffy kitties that want snuggles on the way to and from work.

There's at least 25 cats that live on our street. It's a 10 minute walk to/from work, but the trip often takes 20-30 minutes because of kitties Big smile


Do you two 'shoe pool' together to work?

Not true. Kittens and sandbox are the perfect EVE metaphor.

View all the grains in the box as solar systems, or the varies people.. Kitty enters and takes a dump all over them. Griefers.

What is the asymetricly mass, clumped together and larger than the other objects in the box? Blob.

OMG.. that turd is enormous! It's a TITAN!! Quickly everyone clump together and take it down.

Local smells funny.. I don't see anything, but something is unseen causing me to be skittish and unnerved.

Scratch scratch.. kitty just lite a cyno, incoming!!

I sure do talk a lot of ****...

I never said you were afk while cloaked, I'm just offering up what seems to me to be a fair way to deal with afk cloakers in system that is totally not a threat to non-afk cloakers

btw what about just getting onto an stable dramiel and just flying in a straight line at some ludicrous speed so scanning it wont allow you to catch it? would that be considered AFK speeding?


This would violate the Spaceballs law stating that no other ship besides Spaceball One can go ludicrous speed.

Trolling is a defined as a post that is deliberately designed for the purpose of angering and insulting other players in an attempt to incite retaliation or an emotional response. Posts of this nature are disruptive, often abusive and do not contribute to the sense of community that CCP promote.
