Originally by: Latex Underwear How do I opt-out? I don't want anything to do with this.
Easy, don't use it.
That's rather difficult, especially when CCP automatically thinks "Hey, person A has person B set as blue, obviously we should tell person B all the other people that person A has set blue as well".
The only way to opt-out is to rush onto eve gate after the patch, and do it for EVERY SINGLE CHARACTER - oh wait, only so many people can log on at the start. Great.
I said it before, I'll say it again:
CCP is trying to merge in game "Target Identification" with "Friend".
"Friend" does not necessarily imply "Do Not Shoot" "Do Not Shoot" does not necessarily imply "Friend"
I have more people that are set red for target identification that are friends I would actually like to network with on EVE Gate than there are people I have set blue.
Sadly, not only can I not use it for that, I also need to opt out of EVE Gate so it doesn't share my "do not engage lists". In fact, I've already had to download the Sisi client just to delete all my contacts while this was in development.

3) At its core this is a social network for EVE Players, not an anti-Social network. An opt-in setting would have almost no one included at start and is contrary to the purpose of the feature and would cripple its usefulness. We feel there are better and more productive ways to address your privacy needs.
The big question I think that makes everyone ansy is the automatic sharing of contacts, which stems from merging in-game target identification with friend.
Could you give a reply as to why you feel the need to do that? Especially merge target identification with friend?
If you would let us actually flag our friends without compromising our in game target identification, I think this social network would be a lot better accepted. The rest of the features like the calendar etc look great.

Originally by: B0X Question. Is this affected by corp standings?
No, only personal standings count. Just heading this question off so the developers don't think that our real concerns are just people who misunderstand the features :) There's still a few days left for No Pilots to be set as default...

Maybe Chribba's star power can earn us an 11th hour reprieve.

I used https://gate.eveonline.com for setting my interface to No Pilots. At least, I know it's a domain owned by CCP, and there are no cert warnings there.
