Edited by: Syekuda on 18/07/2010 04:53:11 I think I missed an episode here.
My fleet was destroying a POS in low sec in tama. Cool on that, we got it in reinforced mode. We even got (I got evemail especially) some hate/emo slash wrist mail with it too so good tears.
here's the problem. I go back in high-sec (yes I made that stupid mistake) - give me a brake on this one since its my 2nd time going GCC...but first time when I got back in high sec lol. Anyway, I go back in my station to wait for 15 minutes.
I do wait 15 minutes and I even wait 2 more minutes after my timer is gone. I go out of station. The concord frigate targets and shoots me ????? wtf. Another 15 minute but this time its only an aggression countdown (yellow)
EDIT: I waited 17 minutes again. Got out of station. Guess what. Concord shot me again ???? wow ????
ps: thats the appreciation I get to clean low sec POS ? thanks concord

After pvping in 0.0 I never want to go back to lowsec pvp cuz GCC is a pain in the ass. You should get a warning if you try to undock with agression on you, probably best to pay attention to those

if it was concord shooting you the second time, than you'd go gcc again afaik. It was most likely the faction navy shooting you due to bugged timers (or your sec status dropped below the magic number for the system you were in?). I'd suggest a few minutes past the yellow timer and then relogging and waiting several more minutes. Also take some video of it and file a petition/bug report about the timers. - - - Dian'h Might - C&Ps resident "internet kleptomaniac" |

I dunno if they have an option to ignore those messages, but you might want to check the esc menu and make sure you reset those settings, although the GCC system has always been buggy. Best rule of thumb is to wait at least 15 minutes from when you dock up, because at worst you will get agression from the station owners, which turn into GCC again when the sentries start shooting you when you undock. Even then you might want to log for a while and do something else, just to be sure.
Lowsec pvp: shoot something, then hide for 15 min, repeat. 0.0 pvp: Shoot something, run from blob, repeat.

Also, while were at this, I don't get it ?? I shoot a POS in low sec and I get a GCC. A pilot does the same in 0.0 and he gets nothing wtf ? remove that damn gcc system. its old and I don't like it. Doesn't make any sense in low sec anyway. Concord ain't there. No presence or authority there that I've seen

It makes no sense if you try to role play it. GCC is there to be a transition between hisec and 0.0. If GCC is removed then lowsec is now NPC 0.0. Also, shooting a tower is no different than shooting a ship in lowsec, other then it can take hours to kill, and it doesn't move.

Gate guns, no problem. Station gun, no problem as well. Just remember that you can't use bubbles and bombs in low sec and only that is "easy" enough for pvp so... removing gcc would be a good thing for pvp. I seriously don't know why gcc exist in the first place in low sec. It shouldn't if you ask me.

you DO get a warning...
It says there are people that want to kill you or something. It's obvious you have it turned off or something. "My name is legion, for we are many" |

there's a hidden cooldown timer which gets refreshed every time you change your session, if im not wrong. just stay docked for about 30 minutes next time you have a gcc and you should be fine

You are either lying or dont read the names on what shoots you. If Concord fires a shoot at you in any situation, you will get/refresh your GCC. When you have GCC in high sec, you cannot dock nor use gates. You say you docked up and waited 17 min. Unless your ship got destroyed, that is simply not possible.

This.
If I understand the mechanics properly, there is a hidden cool down timer for the station. When you get close to a station when you're on GCC, the station will fire at you and a hidden 15 minute timer will start for the station.
If you undock after GCC wears off, but before the hidden timer does, the station will fire and reset the hidden timer.

What would I gain by lying ? Anyways, if you read it carefully and if you know the mechanics (when CCP doesn't cheat on me) I lost my ship in high sec. At that point, I got back to station and I could dock in it....with my silly pod.
So ya next time, 30 minutes no less lol.
Again, they should remove GCC in low sec...it sucks and it doesn't make sense

I'm a very cautious player when it comes down to GCC. This was due to hulkageddon and my participation. I ended up docking at a station then testing the waters in a rookie ship just in case my timer got screwed. Was a useful learning. Curve, and I didn't lose anything of value.
