it's only about that even if CCP said the timer is 15 minutes, it's NOT 15 minutes quite often.
Sometimes it's 15, sometimes it's 30 minutes, thats the problem...
I have no problem with the timer, it only sucks that can never know if you're still flagged or not!
OMG Someone's finally got it. Hallelujah 
Well...It's in fact supposed to last 15 minutes, from the last agression. So normally you have to wait 15 plain minutes without agressing anything before the flag leaves. Anyway it seems a bit borked...This isn't the first time it happens... And please people...Try to read before flaming.
You should remember that pirates are part of the game, and as other players, they have the right to complain about something not working at all or as it should work...

Hey Crowley, I have a solution to your problem...
Don't shoot anyone in Empire Controlled Space, then you wont have to worry about the timer at all ;)
Bye :) ------------------------------------------------ "for piece sakes!" |

"yeah, man. it was hot! got away with all this primo loot! barely had to lift a finger at all. it was just asking to be taken!"
"but we had to run from those damn pigs afterward. we took off accross the docks and holled up in this warehouse loft. cops crawlin' all over the place man! we tried moving slowly from building to building. there were just too many! we finally had to sneak into an broken down lift crane they use to grab stuff from the barges. s'a good thing we were at the docks, too. friggin' fish smell messes up them khey-nine units pretty good."
"we got outta there around 4am. 6 hours camping out from the pigs and their hounds. not fun, man. not fun... but the loot was worth it!!"
there is a fine, but dissasterous line between a fart and a shart. i suggest you make sure which side you want to be on... |

All I want is an icon saying "I'm still flagged".
If I had been out and about last night solo and I got hit with a 34 minute flag I would have lost a ship after 15 minutes because that how long the timer is supposed to be.
As to the ppl whining about piracy in empire. Grow a brain yourselves and read before opening your gobs.
Fe Fi Fo Fum, I smell the fur of some carebear scum. 
YAAAAAAAR

Originally by: VossKarr Edited by: VossKarr on 20/09/2004 05:45:56 Why don't you guys, instead of orbiting the planets waiting for a flag to expire, hop into your pods, fly to a gate and make an insta BM out of the system? I'm not sure if it's allowed to pod flagged players in 0.1 and up, though, so there may be a risk of that happening, too. 
Why would you bother doing that? The sentry guns in the next system won't be any nicer to you.
The current implementation of criminal flagging is bad enough, but it doesn't even work as stated (time limits too random) - unacceptable. ______________________________________________
Never argue with idiots. They will just drag it down to their level, and then beat you through experience. |

Edited by: Barth3zzzNL on 20/09/2004 16:12:24 Camping a busy low sec system with n00bs in cruisers works better then insta bms. Simply gank anyone and their mother several times and ruin their day as much as you can.
Sure its less fun the normal pirating but if CCP thinks thats how pirating is supposed to work then i wont argue...  ---------------------------

Oh, I noticed right away that it was about the fact that he had to wait 30 mins, instead of the 15 it should normally be, and thus it was some sort of bug that he was reporting and asking confirmation of. But, well, I hate pirates, and I had nothing nice to say, so I didn't post.

I'm indifferent to the actual rule as I believe there should be some kind of NPC reaction to your criminal activites but the least CCP could do is ensure the 15 minute countdown IS 15 minutes.
LEEEEERRRRRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY! |

Originally by: cashman It's time for Eris to get a clue. CCP should make a statement about this.
It's the exact same things as what Zombie did, you may not attack in "safe-areas" (empire/within sentry range) without loosing your ship.
