You're absolutely right. Can't kill anyone. Might as well ignore those Test dudes in local and go back to ratting in your Nightmare or mining that ice. |

Sjugar wrote:Easy solution: automatically log of clients after 30 minutes of inactivity. In my opinion when you're having an effect on the game and the game-play of others you should be behind your computer screen, playing the game. I find it totally unacceptable that you can log in a character and go to work or head to bed and still have an effect on the game.
Sitting cloaked in system is just a matter of play-style. You are there, observing, waiting for the target to drop his guard. It's quite a bit of work and patience actually to find that right moment to drop the hammer and do maximum damage.
People who do 90% of that work while not even being behind the computer-screen cheapen that effort.
I basically consider them bots, the computer is playing the game while the player is doing something else.
So what you're saying is that you want to know for sure that someone's there so you can stay safe in your station or your POS, and come out again when they log off or leave. You don't want to have to watch dscan, you don't want to have to stay aligned, you don't want to worry about your ratting ship having to PvP.
Safe ratting and mining in nullsec, just like hisec. Yep, seems reasonable.
If this isn't what you mean then please explain how someone going AFK cheapens your experience. |

Only you decide how they are going to impact your gameplay. What kind of wordplay is that? If your gameplay is mining and you do that with a hostile in system it's a very fast way to lose your ship. They are impacting my gameplay, either by making me dock up or shooting my ship. You must be utterly and utterly stupid to not change your gameplay with a hostile in system. And that's what I dislike about being able to make people change the way they play while not even being behind a computer-screen.
You have lots of options.
- Watch your directional scanner.
- Stay aligned out of your plex or mining site.
- Bring friends to help defend you.
- Move to a different system.
- Etc.
Learn to adapt rather than to complain. |

You don't have a counterargument to why people should be able to effect gameplay while not being behind their computerscreen, that's why you try to make it into a discussion you can win.
Ask The Mittani about affecting gameplay without being logged into Eve.
Hell, ask me. I spend more time playing Jabber Online than Eve Online and I guarantee you it's had an effect on people's in-game experience.
Next point?
Edit: I do it from my phone too. |

Sjugar wrote:Ahhhhwww the old metagame argument: I can order others to shoot you while not even being online so it's ok to bot (afk cloaking is effectively botting) in eve. You must be a test member because last thing I heard test fully supports botting. Now I can see why you are so fighting to keep afk cloaking alive.
Ahhhhwww the old strawman argument: AFK cloaking! Hand waving! You bot lover!
AFK cloaking is an effective tactic to stop botting. After a few days the guy running the bots will get frustrated and set them to rat even though there are hostiles in local. Then we kill the bots.
So yeah, I support botting. They're nice targets. |

The only ones that complain about afk cloakers are null residents, even though you can do it everywhere. Do you think perhaps it's because only in null can you have sov? You expect a higher degree of security than anyone ever dreams of in high sec, and call them carebears?
I don't expect anything of that, just that people fly the ships, not computers. I am sorry that you're paying AAA billions of ISK a month for access to one or two systems that are easily camped 24x7. Perhaps you should consider renting from someone that doesn't corral you up like cattle for the slaughter.
