First of all, I play more than 5 years and know the rules, especially concerning ratting in 0.0
I was ratting in belt in dead-end system with empty local, my scout was in nearby system at the gate. Suddenly, three negatives from Pandemic Legion appeared in local (wormhole?) and within 2 seconds I hit warp to safe spot. But in the next second 2 ships appeared near me (not warped in, just appeared!) and I got scrambled and popped.
So, how is this possible, to lock a ship at random belt within 3 seconds after entering local? Even login trap would take much more time.
Is it exploit, or it is possible with legitimate tactic?

Were you at the beacon of the belt you were in? They might have randomly warped to some belts, and pure luck resulted in your demise.
You can take the fastest interceptor and try to warp to closest belt in any system. And it will take MUCH more time than 3 seconds. Also, as I said the ships did not warp in, but just appeared near me (like decloaked but without decloaking sound effect)

Sounds to me like you may have experienced some sort of connection time out, your browser not updating events and not refreshing local. They could have been in the system for maybe whole 20-30 secs before the local actually showed it. Did you noticed anything else unusual like ammo in your guns no dropping or a rat not taking damage for your weapons anymore?
No, everything was just fine, but now I'm thinking they somehow managed to delay their appearance in local (like in wormholes), but still it does not explain how they spawned near me (not warp in, but instant spawn).

Your scout is spy.
There was only me in the system and the scout was me on another account in nearby system.

Methinks you weren't paying attention.
They appeared in the belt two seconds after you SAW them in local. Stop assuming your own attention span was infallible.
I can assure you, I was paying attention to local, because I remember clearly the moment when the local changed from "me only" to "3 more" (of course, now you might say that I'm ******ed person, who has memory disorders). I know what I saw and it was not like anything else seen in 5+ years of gameplay.

And general forum is general forum. That is <> "issues and workaround forum" and also <> Sisi feedback forum. Yet, the threadnought - with improper title - is here.
1. Read the first post before any updates and tell me what is wrong with the title.
2. I would agree with "wrong forum" but it is up to CCP moderators to move it to the proper place.
3. Stop whining.
