How we guess what type of ship you would fly =)
Anyways, how do you know of the police are out for you untill they come and throw your ass on the car. Sometimes they will have a warrant and let you know. But obviously when you're out in space ganking defensless people because you have no skill, then there shouldn't be anyway to know if you're criminaly flagged or not. Besides logging off like a wuss to hide at a planet shouldn't take time off your status for being attacked.

It's a TIMER. It should be clearly flagged, with a countdown ffs.

See more and more posts about making the game see more real. Always someone posting up a counter like "Well I can bump a station and not be destroyed". So pathetic... Timer is an bad idea. Im sorry but if you're going to cheat the system by logging off and logging back on till timer is up. Then there shouldn't be one. That is abusing a system IMO.
Now if a Timer was put in that deactivated when you logged off. Then by all means go for it. It's still not realism and little non-skilled wannabe pirates will have an more advantage of knowing when they can dock. You know being they run away in the first place *winks*

Hiya.
Well the stuff was mine actually so Dopa lost only a crap indy while I lost about 200 million in mods. Luckily he owns 2 battleships so he's selling them to pay me back.
As for the people who criticize Dopa for roleplaying, well at least he doesn't just do the treadmill isk farming crap that most people do.
AFAIK he asked that guy to leave Kehour in his barge, the guy flew away and then came back, after which he was killed. Seems to me that the guy in the barge made a decision and there was no griefing on Dopa's part.
And to CCP, not that you will listen. You have a persistant world where everything is in RL time, then you make a inconsistent change with that idealogy and add a timer that is in game time only, which affects a system which is extreme in its conseqences, yet you fail to add a warning when undocking informing your users that your rediculous code is about to kill them.
Heres an idea:
IF USER is CriminallyFlagged THEN MakeADialogBox("Warning:You are criminally flagged, do you really wish to undock and get killed by rediculously GODLY NPC's?") END
Is that so freaking hard to code in?

Originally by: Liquid Metal Flagging shows up as a great thick red box around the ship, and all that pilots items, ie drones, not sure about the scanner though
So it's the same as pre-exodus? Cool.
dont listen to him, he needs a clue
criminal flagging seems to be bugged in exodus, not only you cant see whos flagged anymore (rofl), no you cant see if your flagged yourself.
also it seems thy removed the flagging for the next 15min you got when you attacked a -5.0 player in empire, so he cant shoot back after warping away and refitting at a station (you could before)
learned it the hard way, sentries began to shoot me after I attacked a Geddon which was shooting at me at a gate before ( about 7 mins earlier)
and no, flagging gets resetted even if you logged off Wanna fly with me?

i agree wholeheartedly with the idea that vast improvements need to be made regarding the flagging system. the rules never seem to work right, and you're given no indication of flagging, either on others or yourself.

What I would like to know is, whats the chances of getting the stuff back and why the hell is Concorde so damned bugged when its so damned uber. Please fix the game.

Why cant CCP just give us an indicator for when we are flagged? Don't they realize just how many petitions this would prevent?
How hard would it be to have a blinking light on your HUD for when you're criminally flagged? I know most of us have probably lost ships because we were criminally flagged, forgot about it and got nailed by sentries as a result. I lost a Crow that way.

2005.01.09 03:30:00 Training of the skill Self Contradiction to level 5 has been completed
and also you say it is cheating the system to log off and then log on again till the timer is up - well actually the timer does not count down when you are logged off... so there is no way this can be exploited
People play games to have fun primarily, and to do something different from reality - if you make a game more like reality, then in the case of a game like eve it would just make it more tiresome.
Not having a timer in the name of "realism" is rediculous, it is just an annoyance to have to stay in SS longer than the timer to be sure that you are infact not going to get ganked by the sentries when you warp back to a gate in low sec etc.

Im glad you killed that mining barge, mining barges are so weak for a reason, so you can gank them in kestrels   
Also whoever was mining in a barge in 0.9, needs to grow some and get in 0.4 or below.
i wish i could sit in 0.9 AFK smoking npc's all day and make good money, truth is i cant, id make crap money, but what the hell

Edited by: Famine Aligher'ri on 09/01/2005 11:16:14 Well lets see here, we don't play a mystical magic based game here. So it's only right to use the word 'realistic' to better enhance the game. It can fit here and still fit into the overall theme of the game without killing the "Role-Playing" of a fun game. I'm sorry you don't understand that little wannabe pirate, maybe you will some day...

Originally by: L DOPA Hi again.
I had to sell my scorpion to pay back the isk I lost and I want to apologise to all people who I have harrassed in Kehour. I won't be killing barges anymore and I will try and send you money for your barges that I did kill. I am sorry and I learn my lession.
DOPA
That's awesome. Very good for your karma :) Now if only the other barge killers would be as cool as you. Of course you may just be doing that to seem like a nice guy so CCP will be more likely to refund your losses, but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt :-D
Anyway, enough of the nice part of my post :) I dont see how people think they have the right to kill mining barges just because they are mining is safe space. If I were in a mining barge doing solo mining, I definately wouldn't risk going anywhere near a 0.4 area with it. I wouldn't risk an investment like that unless I had a great escort with me. Maybe the person you(Not talking to the thread starter, since he has made up for his wrong-doing. just talking to barge killers in general) killed was just a guy who couldn't get an escort. If you just spent an assload on a barge, would you take it to a dangerous area alone? If you said yes, you are either lying or foolish. What damage did the barge owner ever do? Strip a belt or two? Big deal, it's as easy as warping to another belt. Did he somehow strip a whole system(Is that even possible solo? I doubt you could strip a system solo before the asteroids came back, but I could be wrong.)? Big deal, there are almost definately other high security systems within 1 jump. So the person has to go a system slightly out of his/her way, it isn't a big deal. Did the person somehow strip all of the low security areas within a jump or two? Well, first I would think the person is cheating somehow. But for the sake of my post, lets say that happened. In that event, killing the person would be with good reason, because that would make it so newbies (Other people have the option of dipping into slightly more dangerous areas to mine in, newbies would face a big possibility of death if they went into a lower area and had rats appear. And if they get away it would be hard to go back for the ore in their cans (Unless they dont use cans and just do the back and forth method, which they would have to if they diddnt have access to a hauler). Anyway, my point is that forcing newbies to put their life on the line because you got too greedy should be punishable by death.). in the area that live off of mining are unable to earn any isk until the next downtime (I think that is when the asteroids reappear, but the person who told me that may be wrong. I've never seen a stripped belt right after downtime, and it makes sense to do it that way, so I dont doubt it.). Now if a corp goes into a 1.0 area equipped with all mining barges, that is pretty lame. Most corps probably have people in there that could provide some security, so they could easily go to a different system and mine. Heck, if you diddnt, that would be a bad idea. You can get better ore in a system that is more dangerous AND not give your corp a bad reputation. I could go on a bit more, but I'll cut this short since I'm rambling on. Plus downtime started 54 minutes ago, I might be able to get in already. I have some mining to do (Not in a barge or a 1.0 system. An osprey in a 0.6 system :))
