Apo Lyptica nul-li-fy Against ALL Anomalies 5	Posted - 2012.08.04 00:29:00 - [1] - Quote I think we pretty much agree that afk cloakers are a problem. So how about this- Compounding capacitor use per cycle. Example- 100, 150, 200, 250, 300, 350, 400, 450 cap use Now you ask what about ships who are supposed to use cloaks? Add in a bonus, either flat or per t2 skill. But at the same time, balance it out so a ship that is SUPPOSED to cloak can do so for about an 1.5 hours with out specialized fitting. Sound good?
Cloe Mitchell Center for Advanced Studies Gallente Federation 0	Posted - 2012.08.04 00:31:00 - [2] - Quote Another thread about AFK cloakers? Isn't this the billionth thread about this? Deal with it, you risk averse nancy.

No, they're not, and no it doesn't. Contract your stuff and/or ISK to me, un-install the client, and go pay-to-win in Black Prophecy or LotRO, it's clearly more your speed. 0.0000...05/10. Next! Meta-gaming for carebears: Whine on the forums like a little ***** until CCP gets sick of you and hands you everything you ask for just to shut you up.
Apo Lyptica nul-li-fy Against ALL Anomalies 5	Posted - 2012.08.04 00:34:00 - [5] - Quote Lol, at this time I'm the one who's cloaked. I'm staring at my capacitor recharging and thought to myself why can I set here and do this with out penalty.
Rengerel en Distel Amarr Science and Industry 268	Posted - 2012.08.04 00:36:00 - [6] - Quote Perhaps start a new alt, go run missions in jita. You'll get used to seeing neutrals in local. You'll get used to how to deal when people you don't know are even trying to, probe you down and warp to you. You'll realize the people you never see, and never interact with you, really don't change your play one little bit. edit: OP feels stupid for posting, then claims to be the afk cloaker wanting to be self-nerfed.
Scatim Helicon GoonWaffe Goonswarm Federation 641	Posted - 2012.08.04 00:38:00 - [7] - Quote You don't apostrophise when you pluralise. Titans were never meant to be "cost effective", its a huge **.-á- CCP Oveur, 2006 ~If you want a picture of the future of WiS, imagine a spaceship, stamping on an avatar's face. Forever.

Frying Doom Zat's Affiliated Traders 415	Posted - 2012.08.04 00:39:00 - [9] - Quote If you have a problem with afk cloakers. Just minimize local, then you won't have to be scared of someone who is not at there computer. Easily fixed Any Spelling, gramatical and literary errors made by me are included free of charge.
Gabrielle Lamb Pator Tech School Minmatar Republic 3	Posted - 2012.08.04 00:43:00 - [10] - Quote AFK Cloaking is great, it's the only mechanic in the game that makes PVE possible in hostile space without spending hours warping from safespot to safespot to save ship. Meaning we still have ninja-explorers / ninja-ratters and wormhole ninjas in the game. Keep it, just as it is.

No, we most certainly not all agree that AFK cloakers are a problem. AFK cloakers cant do **** to you, they can't even actively report intel on you.
Rek Seven Probe Patrol Project Wildfire 365	Posted - 2012.08.04 00:45:00 - [12] - Quote Cloaks are working as intended. Move on and find something else to do.
Shameless Avenger Can Preachers of Kador 387	Posted - 2012.08.04 00:48:00 - [13] - Quote Meanwhile, there's this little known button says directional scan. "This is the Ninja. He will scan you down; he will salvage your wrecks and there shall be no aggro"

Chatte Noire PepperPark Deep Space Operations 26	Posted - 2012.08.04 01:02:00 - [17] - Quote As a pubbie, I have to ask: is this fuzz about afk-cloakers just about seeing a non-blue name in local and fearing that every second, this cloaker could come back to the keyboard and stalk you? Honest question.

How about something easier and less detrimental to regular cloak users? Add a tachyon probe for probe launchers that lets you scan down cloaked ships. Long scan time and low signature strength so people on the move are fine, but those at rest for long periods are sitting ducks... /solveproblem /stopwhine
Sentamon Imperial Academy Amarr Empire 100	Posted - 2012.08.04 01:09:00 - [19] - Quote That reminds, my AFK cloaking alt is almost done training. Which system needs additional surveillance? ~ Professional Forum Alt -á~
Richard Desturned GoonWaffe Goonswarm Federation 1557	Posted - 2012.08.04 01:16:00 - [20] - Quote what system are you getting afk cloaked in? i will go take care of the afk cloakers by counter-afk cloaking them EVE Online: Trammel (or NGE)

Long scan time and low signature strength so people on the move are fine, but those at rest for long periods are sitting ducks... /solveproblem /stopwhine Nah, what the heck is the problem with letting people operate solo in 0.0? Because this is basically what the cloak lets you do, and it's the only kind of defense, other then spending hours jumping from safespot to safespot, that lets you do this. If you remove cloaking, 0.0 becomes nothing but a pure bruteforce arena. If you get a solo explorer in one of your systems you just grab 15-20 guys, set up gatecamps at all gates, Tachyon probe him down and kill him. And the only alternative left for him is to log off and pray he doesn't get killed before his minute is over. I mean, the 15-20 guys rushing in to hunt down a lone explorer is the damn reason people feel forced to fit cloaks right now. And dealing with a lone cloaker is ***** easy already. 1. Stop soloing, make a 3 man ratting group where one person fits tackle, rat in 2-3 systems instead of sticking to a single one. 2. If you wanna do complexes, do it with a 5 man group and have at least on Logi with you. 3. If you wanna kill him, try bait him in with an "easy" kill. I mean if you can instant-field a 15 man group to hunt down a single cloaker for 3 ***** hours, you could actually take that same group and do some PVE while waiting. It's not rocket science.

Messing up your chains? Bring the neutral AFK Cloaker alt. "This is the Ninja. He will scan you down; he will salvage your wrecks and there shall be no aggro"

War hasn't been fought this badly since Olaf the Hairy, High Chief of all the Vikings, accidentally ordered 80,000 battle helmets with the horns on the inside.

I wanted to camp the renters, but was too busy bombing people. Then TEST said to leave the south alone... And then I was the ratter seeing afk campers in local. Opps.
