EVE General Discussion

i will insist on one point tho.

we are not asking them to do it for every kill, those who petition in such case are the one who find this mechanic abuse AND are directly concerned with the kills (i.e. were on the field / part of the OP where it happened) we do not ask them to send a petition when there was one pilot involved, and everyone is free to do it.

some pilots think isboxer is legit, thus do not petition such kills, and we are totally fine with that, it's up to them, but most do think isboxer is a problem and game mechanic abuse, so they petition.

under those conditions, i don't think we can call this a petition abuse.

and for now, it is not relevant anyway, CCP disabled the petitions so....

What's kind of funny is that usually when people want things (that they cant' adapt to) changed in the game, we usually hear "EVE would get so many more subs if". I call it the "appeal to CCPs wallet".

And yet these guys want something changed (that they refuse to adapt to) while refusing to acknoledge the fact that any such change would hurt EVE by lowering the number of paid subscriptions (and putting a damp on the plex market, which is what isbox kiddies use to fund their accounts, which in turn still means more cash money for CCP).

You can petition all you like. You can bump this thread till EVE dies in 20 years when Star Citizen finally comes out (lol). You can stomp your feet all day long while abusing the petition system. It's just not going to change.

And this goes for every one with some ludicrous (and oh so easy to counter) pet peeve, be it isboxer, afk cloaking, freighter ganking or whatever. Sorry, CCP isn't going to play EVE for you, you need to learn how to do it.

Bring ships that kill...

If he has AC tornadoes, you should bring ARTY Battleships. Because he was set up for camping close range.

Use long range artillery, MWD, and passive shield buffer. Warp in, lock, volley fire, hope for the killmail.

If he has artillery tornadoes, set up for long range, bring couple armor tanked heavy hitters, possibly megathrones, armageddons, dominixes. Warp on top at close range, kill them all slowly one by one. He will be forced to disengage and warp off.


Tornadoes are not HP monsters, drones can easily hurt them, 10-15 heavy drones, all that fail army will be disoriented in that mess.

It is mostly usless to multibox vs multiple swarming targets. Meanwhile your domies can RR and permtank with RR energy RR armor reps.

I'm not crying, and there are similar opinions, just look trough the whole topic.

In fact you do. ISBoxer is allowed, you want ccp to change it's stance from "we don't care" to "BANNED!". That's a change.

I don't have a problem with people using ISBoxer. I tried it for pve but it's tedious to set up and confusing to use. Way easier to just use an alt domi and assign drones.

If I didn't like the fact that people with isboxer could beat me (I don't ever recall losing a ship to someone doing that however), I'd learn how to use ISBoxer and beat hem at their own game (since it's allowed) OR use different tactics to beat them (exploiting the weaknesses people endure while multiboxing, like using damps or ecm burst on some of his ships to mess up locking/lock times thus making him deal with a less fine tuned isbox fleet) rather than start a thread on a forum in hopes of getting it banned.

I just think that what you've done here is very weak-minded. Real gamers fight back and win, not run to mommy and whine.

Multiboxing drone assist ships. Mmm

What mechanic abuse?

Sometimes I say sarcastic stuff and get accused of being a troll... but seriously, people that don't bother to read the thread and then post inaccurate information are the worst lot.

There is zero mechanic abuse involved here. Its 3rd party software. We've been over it a lot. A lot a lot. We've explained it, made jokes about it, and explained it again.

You are wrong, banning a 3rd party software is not changing EVE.

Anyway, if it's weak minded, why do you care?

Each link I clicked were locked... are you trying to say that one link out of all of those you posted was unlocked? If so, why link the others?

Just post the 1 unlocked link and call it a day.

BTW, they are all locked still.(And yes, I checked them all again just now in case maybe I missed one).

So I am telling you, your links are locked. Which is what I said earlier, and what I am still saying now.

Check your own links please.

Just calling em like I see em.

The funniest part is that most people in this thread are like me and don't have a problem with ISBoxer kiddies doing their thing. You seem to think that starting this discussion (which has been around as long as isboxer) and keeping it going is going to have some effect.

The effect is that CCP sees support for it's current stance on ISBoxer.......

Congrats, you just made it even less likely that CCP ever bands multiboxing software.
