Let's see.. they established Crimewatch.. Concord Invincibility & reaction time changes..
Mark my words, they'll get around to fixing BUMPING despite your self serving whining..
- I'm thinking that it is a complicated mechanic technically.. and that's only why it hasn't been fixed to date..

re the 'carebear' insinuations , and the false idea that i wish to see an end to hisec ganking or wish hisec to be 100% safe;
i personally would love it if the hi-sec economy could sustain ganking on the levels of a 'burn' event 23/7, 365 days per year , for the isk making opportunities that would exist and the content that this would provide for everyone involved. unfortunately it isn't the case .
if anything i'm not even a 'neutra'l observer but more biased towards ensuring that a healthy ganking environment exists in hisec so my corp and i can log in and have fun doing what we do, ie hunt and rob hi sec gankers and killing their looters.
i know that this might be a difficult concept for you guys to get your heads round, but that's your problem, not mine.
this character is my main, i use it solely for pvp , my other 2 alts on this, my only account are 3 mil odd sp alts that i use for other forms of pvp,(one for solo nullsec shenanigans) no mining, ratting or missioning involved.
if any of you can honestly say the same then feel free to call me a 'carebear', otherwise please just stay on topic . |

nothing is impossible just because you say it is.
my proposal could be implemented in some form without too much extra load on the servers due to it only affecting hi-sec capitals in space involved in hi speed collisions while trying to enter warp outside a docking ring , probably only a few hundred ships at any one time. whether this and the resultant coding required to implement some variation on the current crimewatch flagging system is *impossible*to implement is only known to ccp.

Bella Jennie wrote:Eve is certainly modeled off of RL based SciFi.. not Fantasy; they didn't include magic spells.. RL SciFi, now there's an oxymoron if ever I saw one. SciFi is fiction, the technologies described in the genre don't exist in real life. Science fiction occasionally becomes science fact, as happened to Arthur C Clarke who wrote about communications satellites in 1945, until that happens SciFi is firmly in the realms of fantasy.
Instantaneous transfer of conciousness, warp drives etc, are covered by Clarke's third law : "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic". An addendum to Clarke's third law, attributed to both Niven and Pratchett is that "Any sufficiently advanced magic is indistinguishable from technology"
TL;DR CCP included stuff that is well into the realms of fantasy and magic.
Quote:And don't use the "LIQUID SPACE" card.. not many people could easily control spacecraft in a simulation of real physics..
Liquid space is an appropriate phrase to use, in Eve space acts like a liquid.
Quote:silly....

you don't realize that?
We're well aware that you're asking for it to be made illegal, we're asking you to provide justification that goes beyond your opinion as to why such a change should be made; so far you've failed spectacularly failed to do so, while making yourself look foolish.

The only evidence posted so far was the RF records from last year that show over 99.9% of trips made were successful. If anything this shows highsec is too safe.
Again I ask you people, why is this change needed when it is already super easy to avoid bumping?

No, it's impossible because the developers have said it is.
You want an example of what will happen if you mess with the base code of the physics system?
Hit "Ctrl+Alt+Delete", then go into the task manager. From there, find a process (not a program) labeled "Windows Explorer." Then, right click that process and say "end process tree."
That's an accurate approximation of what will happen to EVE if you mess with the base code.
Oh, and if your proposal would add ANY server load whatsoever to the physics checks, you break the base game with lag. ANY check you add to the physics, even if you don't break the code itself, has to be replicated for each and every item, ship, structure, terrain, and every other thing in the game, all at once, all day, every day.
You really should just learn to keep your bad ideas to yourself, carebear.

so ship speed , and collisions are not events currently logged by the server ?
name calling and insults are usually resorted to by people who have no decent argument to offer, or are losing the argument, or are just plain ill-mannered, which of these are you?
it's also regarded as flaming or trolling, which the isd has already warned about in this thread. you wouldn't be trying to get this thread closed down for some reason would you? |

for the sake of argument, if my proposal of having a 'fleet engagement ' type flag/timer activated by bumped ship is 'too complicated due to crimewatch system, then the solution would be to , using the parameters described in earlier posts, to just make the bumper suspect after 15 minutes of preventing the target from aligning and/or completing its warp cycle .

You clearly detest the foundations that it was built upon and the opportunities it offers. Eve fills a niche in the MMO market, it doesn't need to conform to what other games define as acceptable behaviour because if it did, it would no longer fill that niche and be redundant. Filling a very specific niche is what has enabled Eve to survive as long as it has, while outlasting hundreds of games that did conform to the norm. I'd say that CCP have been doing it right for longer than the lifespan of most MMO's. I've been wondering the same thing. Bella, there are many other MMOs out there, some even space themed, that will allow you to have all the security you want while farming their currency. Why don't you go play one of them rather than keep trying to ruin the one game on the market that caters to people who want all that EvE has to offer? I'm not trying to troll with this question, I am seriously wondering why you play a game that seems to go against everything you think a game should be. I like the game.. I like the sandbox.. I like the backstory.. I like the "edge".. I like the variety of options in the things to do and the manner of play..
However unbridled freedom, I should say UNBALANCED unbridled freedom facilitates people playing like douchebags - picking on the weak...
So I just want clean, logical BALANCE..
I think this really defines the problem this thread is discussing:

perhaps my use of "dickhead" while perfect descriptively, was a bit over the top....
but now you know how us carebears feel whenever the douches call us that in their vitriolic disdain..
actually though, I like carebear.. it has "care" and teddy bears are cute.. it has a righteous connotation and I'm proud to play in that way..
but for the sake of spicing up the game, I suppose we should be thankful to those who choose to play the douche role..

Again I ask you people, why is this change needed when it is already super easy to avoid bumping?
To be fair, what is the ratio of gankers to non gankers in highsec? Also, what is the percentage of successful trips in the other sectors of space with their ratios as well, so we have a fair comparison.
Personally I think it's silly that someone can bump someone for as long as they feel like until they can get people to login without any repercussion. One thing I was thinking of would be to make it so you can still safely log off if you are being locked by someone. From there possibly modifying the PVP timer to not be a fixed 15 minutes, but to make it more of a sliding scale of either your aggression, or the aggression you have received. So, as an example, they wouldn't be able to use an atron with 1 civilian blaster fitted (or a rookie ship if they hand out timers) to keep someone locked down for 15 minutes. Although I would fear what this sort of sliding scale would do in large scale fleet fights to the servers if it was too complex.
