DEAL WITH IT.

I'm not talking about making it faster but less annoying why not make the game smoother if thing still are just as difficult... Why so dismissive? I could say lag is part of blob fights its comes with the territory get used to it. but I would never be so stupid as to say so.

I could have said You chose to live in WH's. Living in WH requires sharing bookmarks by can's. it comes with the territory.

DEAL WITH IT!

But again that would be a stupid thing to say.

I'm not talking about removing the need to probe or making it less time consumimg so your argument is based on a fallacy. I think the best compassion I could make is auto Piloting for traders.

you knopw what? get out of wormholes, if you cant d-scan, youll just end up getting ganked and giving some transient non-wh native your items, and we woudlnt want that.


Not talking about D-scan I'm talking about probing and if you had read the first post you would know that. and over 2 years and 40 billion made in C1 to C5's and only 3 losses made while doing PVE in WH's I think you have no right to tell me to get out because I'm going to get ganked.

And I like killing people in WH's as much as the next guy so why would I want to automate D scan.

and to people who say that WH's should diffcult to scan out well there just not plain and simple and why make it more difficult we already put 10s of billions at risk every time you invite someone to the corp you can take measures but unlike in 0.0 EVERY player has to put EVERY ship that they what to use inside the hole has to be stored in the SMA's and I'm not talking about not having to deal with scanning and I suggested a load of nerfs to the auto probing to make it only attractive if your willing to wait and add risk.

For example
Longer waits

Scanning in alphabetical order by the sig ID (to stop people using lost of alts to scan out a system faster than they could
otherwise)

Not being able to cloak while auto scanning (there by stopping people going totally AFK while scanning and adding danger to auto probing)

Not allowing the use of combat probes with the auto scanner.

I really can't see the problems you have with it, I'm not suggesting having a normal local, I'm not suggesting changing the D scan, you guys just seem to love sitting there and scanning out 10 - 30 sites WHICH YOU WOULD STILL BE ABLE TO DO!

Meh... just do it by hand. It's faster and gives you the option (once you have enough of a 'hit') of ignoring things you're not interested in. This sounds rather like something botters would use to find grav sites.
