Originally by: MatrixSkye Mk2 There's a misconception that "AFK cloaker" means the "cloaker is AFK". This isn't the definition of an AFK cloaker. Actually, I think those that argue that "if they're AFK then they're harmless" know this is wrong and spread this stupidity on purpose.
An AFK cloaker is someone that makes a habit of purposely going AFK for hours/days at a time, single-handedly wearing out the locals, and without EVER being at risk himself, then choosing a time to surprise-attack the locals.
The AFK cloaker is NEVER at risk and NEVER will be at risk unless he clicks his PVP flag "ON". And even then, since he CHOOSES the time and WHO he's going to attack, the risk is negligible. In the mean time, he has everyone else on his toes watching out for him, because after all, he can attack any minute. No one knows.
The argument made by the AFK cloaker supporters is that in 0.0 you should always be alert and ready. What they fail to mention is that at the moment NONE OF THIS applies to the AFK cloaker .
It's why I also find Crumplecorn's signature on AFK cloakers oversimplified to make it seem like they truly are harmless and are AFK:
Of course, anyone that doesn't understand what IS going on would look at that propaganda and think "hmmm, if they are AFK then they are harmless", when in reality this is only half of the equation.
I guess it's all about spreading misdirection and false propaganda.
your wrong on all counts
a well supported, rigorously argued counterpoint. if only we had more analissa fioras on the internet.
if you want safety then go back to hisec

This thread is a classic example of AFK trolling: just post a whiny OP about a topic you know has been done to death, then kick back and enjoy the lulz.
On that note, for the few that really do consider AFK cloakers a threat, the best way to deal with them is to stake out systems where they can't bother you.
To that end, I'm offering premium access to systems guaranteed to be free of AFK cloakers for as low as 1 billion ISK per month.
These prime properties, located in empire space, offer peace of mind and a solid base of operations for aspiring alliances. Just send a small deposit of 100 million ISK to me in-game for more details, as only serious inquiries will be considered.
Your wayward ways displease me. |

That afk cloaker is really an alt of your ceo to scare all the cannon fodder members into not logging into that system so he and his top corp buddies can farm the system. Just make sure to log in to defend the system so can continue farming it after the offending invaders are ousted at your expense.

We just intercepted this communication:
Quote:
Terror Wheels : Mr Cloaker Peggy are you cloaked? Peggy : Yes Terror Wheels : Are you AFK? Peggy : Yes Terror Wheels : Are you going to kill me? Peggy : Yes Terror Wheels : I am confused you are AFK though right? Peggy : Yes Terror Wheels : You can kill while AFK? Peggy : Yes Terror Wheels : How do you .......
From there the communication was broken as it seems the receiving party died.
I stole all the sig images Love you all

It's not fail. Do you realize how much isk is to be made in a properly upgraded nullsec system? The ceo successfully ran nearly the entire corp membership out of the system with nothing more than a harmless alt in a cloaking ship. Ruthless bastage and gets my 100% approval.

A cyno jammer in your system will not prevent covert cynos from being lit.
I highly suggest that you start setting up for these attacks. If someone wants to rat, use them as bait and be ready to kill some recons, bombers, black ops, carriers, or whatever else they decide to drop in.
