Since the butthurt levels in this thread are ridiculously high even for a troll thread, let me input my idea.
Keep local, but have an option so that if a player preforms no keystrokes in EVE for, say, an hour, while remaining logged in, they get a little AFK icon next to their name in local. Would help differentiate those that are actually afk alts and those that are still a threat. Of course this could be abused by cloakers to lull their victims into a false sense of security, but this is EVE after all.
It's not a hard counter, it doesn't ruin the cloaker's life, it might help solo miners or the like in 0.0 a little, and it can be used both ways.
Just a thought.

Kitty Litter Cake:
What You Need:
1 spice or German chocolate cake mix 1 white cake mix 2 large pkg vanilla instant pudding mix, prepared (I like Bird's« dessert mix) 1 large pkg vanilla sandwich cookies green food coloring 12 small Tootsie Rolls«
1 new kitty litter pan 1 new plastic kitty litter pan liner 1 new pooper scooper
How To Prepare:
Prepare cake mixes and bake according to directions (any size pans).
Prepare pudding mix and chill until ready to assemble.
Crumble white sandwich cookies in small batches in food processor, scraping often. Set aside all but about 1/4 cup. To the 1/4 cup cookie crumbs, add a few drops green food coloring and mix until completely colored.
When cakes are cooled to room temperature, crumble into a large bowl. Toss with half the remaining white cookie crumbs and the chilled pudding. Important: mix in just enough of the pudding to moisten it. You don't want it too soggy. Combine gently.
Line a new, clean kitty litter box. Put the cake/pudding/cookie mixture into the litter box.
Put three unwrapped Tootsie rolls in a microwave safe dish and heat until soft and pliable. Shape ends so they are no longer blunt, curving slightly. Repeat with 3 more Tootsie rolls bury them in the mixture. Sprinkle the other half of cookie crumbs over top. Scatter the green cookie crumbs lightly on top of everything -- this is supposed to look like the chlorophyll in kitty litter.
Heat 3 Tootsie Rolls in the microwave until almost melted. Sc**** them on top of the cake; sprinkle with cookie crumbs. Spread remaining Tootsie Rolls over the top; take one and heat until pliable, hang it over the side of the kitty litter box, sprinkling it lightly with cookie crumbs. Place the box on a newspaper and sprinkle a few of the cookie crumbs around for a truly disgusting effect!

But if there's a hostile in system - he can hurt you, even if it's unlikely you still need to alter your game play. You need to perform extra effort, while the afk cloaker does not, he is free to leave the ship cloaked without any effort.

Edited by: MASTERLESS SLAVE on 11/11/2010 21:07:28 BLUEBERRY MUFFINS
Ingredients 2 cups all-purpose flour 2 tablespoons baking powder 1/2 cup sugar 1 stick unsalted butter, melted 1 egg, slightly beaten 3/4 cup whole milk 1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries 1/2 cup granulated brown sugar or white sugar
Directions Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 12-cup muffin tin.
In a bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and sugar. In another bowl, combine butter, egg, and milk and mix well. Pour the wet ingredients into the flour mixture and with a spatula, stir until just combined. Do not beat or over mix; it's okay if there are lumps in the batter. Gently fold the blueberries into the batter.
Spoon the batter into the muffin tray, filling each cup about 2/3 full. Bake for 10 minutes and remove from the oven. Sprinkle the tops of the muffins with the granulated brown or white sugar and return the muffins to the oven to bake for an additional 10 to 15 minutes, until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean. Cool for about 10 minutes in the pan before turning the muffins out.

How do you know he's AFK? You don't understand risk management.
Scenario: someone walks into a store you are in with a gun. Do you: A) go about your business as if he is not a threat B) assume the gun is loaded and gtfo
BTW the gun is not loaded, but you have no way of knowing that. If the gun is loaded, you don't know that it is in fact loaded until you get shot in the face. If you can't follow this analogy, go back to first grade.

Some of these kids need a shovel for all the sand in their vahjayjay's.

Guess I better ****ing pay attention and be aligned and at speed in case I need to GTFO. What's that? He's not coming? Oh hmm. Prolly a cloaker. Whatev.

I will claim this to be my last post on this topic. This is doubtful.
Let's look at this realistically. Does CCP have a reason to change this? Half of you want to do away with AFK cloaking. The other half claims this would soften the game and are in favor of nerfing local so it's a non-issue.* No matter what CCP does, half the people who give a **** will be ****ed. The other half will be moderately smug for a while, then move on to complaining about something else.
TL;DR STFU already. They aren't going to do anything. CCP has no reason to state their opinion for or against ADK cloaking tactics/broken mechanics.
Seriously TL;DR STFU
*Real percent of thread contributors
- 49.5% are trolls pretending to be in favor of nerfing AFK cloaking in order to stir people up
- 49.5% are trolls pretending to be in favor of nerfing local in order to stir people up

I'll give you a hint: the guys trying to secure their systems aren't in the latter category. ________________

I agree with you 100%! People that are to scared to undock because of AFK(?)-cloaker should really consider another game. Evolve for **** sake? Switch system? Get some friends? Make money in highsec if you don't have the balls - or grow some.

Originally by: RuleoftheBone White chocolate Mississippi mud cake with white chocolate ganache and walnuts
Yes, not quite the dark mud of the Mississippi delta! But for those of us who love white chocolate, and want a lighter rich chocolaty taste, here is a great recipe:
Ingredients
200g brown sugar
250ml milk
180g butter, cut up
6 tablespoons molasses or treacle
150g white chocolate, coarsely chopped
300g plain flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
Pinch of salt
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
375ml of white chocolate ganache
12 walnut halves
Preheat the oven to 325¦C, 170¦C, gas 3. Butter and prepare a 23cm round cake pan with greaseproof paper.
Place the brown sugar, milk, molasses and chocolate in a saucepan and stir over a low heat. Do not allow to boil. Mix until smooth, then allow to cool.
Sift the flour, baking powder, and salt into a medium bowl. Then gradually stir the dry ingredients and the eggs into the sugar mixture.
Spoon the batter into the prepared cake pan.
Bake in the oven for 60 to 70 minutes. Test with a skewer or tooth-pick to test that the cake is done - they should come out clean.
Cool the cake completely in the pan before turning out. Decorate by spreading the white chocolate ganache and arrange the walnuts.
When making a Mississippi mud pie recipe, there are a number of ways that you can present the pie. With the party case and the dark rich filling, you can whip up some cream - around 300ml is usually enough, and completely cover the filling, then decorate with chocolate curls.
I think this is the most intellgent and tasty post in this thread, I will make them once i find a good place to afk cloak. Im not an alt, why would you think this? |

AFK cloaking will only get you so far as there are a few real life implications.
Can you afford to have your computer running 24 hours a day for months on end? Can you afford the monthly subscription fee only to sit in a system static doing nothing until a target becomes available?
Ultimatley it takes a determined type of person to afk cloak for long durations of time, we have to consider that you cannot make any isk with that account so you will either have to plex it or pay real cash for it just to sit doing mostly nothing.
AFK cloaking is good for 3 or 4 weeks after that its really quite a sad way to play a GAME.
