Dear players,
We have now deployed fixes for the issues that made it necessary to temporarily restrict Starbase warfare. The situation looks good and we hereby remove the restrictions on Starbase warfare, with the following notification:
We have seen quite a lot of cases where players have cyno-jumped into enemy systems and then logged off, waiting for the restriction to be removed so that they can attack. This is of course an exploit in systems where cyno-jammers are installed but did not work. We will only permit attacks by pilots who have jumped into the system after the restriction is lifted. Those found to have abused this will be punished accordingly and losses suffered by the defending parties will be reimbursed.
We thank you for your understanding and patience.

Did you fix jump bridges?
Edit: because if not that gives an added advantage to the attackers (or takes away one the defenders would have had were it not for stuff breaking)

Really I think it's a huge inconvenience to everyone.

Have you fixed the jump bridges yet? If so, is there a process we need to go through to bring them back up so that alliance people can use them once more? No point allowing POS warfare again if all the POS bugs aren't fixed?

Originally by: NATMav Honestly, they should put a halt on ALL POS warfare activities until they get this **** fixed, regardless of who is benefitting. POS warfare is bad enough when it is working right, I hate seeing people get ****** over by a bad patch.
Originally by: NATMav What does CCP plan to do about cap ships logged off in broken cyno-jammed systems for when they start working again?
My goodness, it's almost as if they listened to me.

Originally by: EliteSlave how would people know if the system they jumped into was cynojammed?
I agree with this question. Legally speaking how would one know that the system he went to was restricted to go to by a cynojammer if the cynojammer was broken?
How was I supposed to know I was driving 40 kilometers over speed limit, although I passed all the cars around, if my speedometer was broken.
The difference here is law dictates that your speedometer should be working and that's your fault if you're guilty of breaking law if it isn't, going to a system with a broken cynojammer would not be illegal due to the fact it's not my responsibility to know there was a non working cynojammer there due to a bug in the game. ------- I usually spend some minutes writing a post, usually read it over, decide it doesn't really add anything useful to a conversation and I hit the cancel button. .....This time I didn't hit c |

First hint, they have tried before, but couldn't....
I know Triumvirate jumped a substantial fleet into CVA's home system only to be sent back by GMs....

Why would you jump your dread into a system only to immedeately log off if you didn't know there was a cynojammer there?

Drop a cyno in that system now, or try, if it doesn't take, petiton to get your caps removed...
Seriously though, who jumps capital ships into a system and then logs them 'waiting' for POS warfare to be unbanned.... Only someone that knows that if they wait they won't be able to jump caps in.

Edited by: Agmamenon Exinferis on 10/12/2007 19:15:09 You announce the banning in a news headline, and the unbanning gets a small forum post?
I expect you to be more professional CCP.

Glad to see that it's fixed (which is yet to be seen), but I would prefer that major changes is policy such as this be given a bit of fair warning to give players a chance to prepare. For example, if you had said, it's fixed, POS warfare may resume following tomorrow's downtime, that would be alot more customer friendly than just dropping a bomb like this, and whoever happens to be logged off at the time get screwed.

Make a note for next time: Do these rule changes over downtime, not during the day. You have players with inside knowledge that will take advantage of this kind of crap. It's understandable that you must restrict stuff without notice but ffs make announcement before you get the features back into game.
Patch screwed stuff up, don't screw it up anymore. (And fix pos', jump clones, jump bridges etcetcetcetcetcetc.)

Instead of removing the restriction, how about removing POS warfare?
(actually, I'm more serious than not)
