Prove me wrong. No, you saw one guy ask me. I have several times, I just didn't answer it in such a was that they could use it to troll me. So they keeping throwing the line in. No worries, there are plenty of bites. I'm easy fishing that way. Translation: I don't want people to troll me, I wanna do the trollin' That's still troll baiting. Lrn2read. I answered him.
No you really didn't. If you don't want to use AP then dont. Then you are free from all the gankers you fear so much.
If you want it gone to save people too stupid to calculate risk vs reward then you're making a moot point.
Terrorfrodo wrote:The Autopilot is not only extremely convenient, it also provides lazy and stupid people a variety of ways to fail at EVE. It is a critical component of EVE that its complexity allows players to fail in a lot of different ways. If features like the autopilot are removed and thus complexity is reduced, people have fewer ways of failing available. This will make people appear competent who are in reality lazy and stupid, but were just not given the chance to show it. We don't want that.
Also this.
If you have any further thoughts on something i've posted, or want to ask an unrelated question feel free to contact me by EvE Mail or by private conversation if i'm online.

If you get rid of autopilot how will I find time to read the forums?

Also auto-pilot is the best built in navigator you can get... showing you a route to your destination and you can make a choice to let the ship follow the route automatically or fly manually only using the route as a guide :-) |

Using it in nullsec is suicide, and it's inadvisable in low.
Reminds me of a friend who used to autopilot haulers through 0.0 and into low sec. He actually got out and to his destination unscathed a few times to our amazement. We should have made an event of it and placed bets. |

Yes, because CCP have responded to every single thread on the forums - except this one.
So they are intentionally ignoring you in the hopes you go away.
Hmm, maybe the rest of us should try that.

EVE gives you enough rope to hang yourself, plus a few feet more.
I only AFK empty. I'd never expect to arrive if I was AFK with valuable cargo.
Whenever I do have a loss, I blame myself and not other people nor game mechanics. |

Autopilot is just functional enough that your average risk-averse player will use it instead of significantly better, EULA-breaking alternatives.
But if autopilot were removed its current users would not go back to manual piloting.
I'm a NPC corp alt, any argument I make is invalid. |

Auto pilot is a great way to get people playing the "truck drivers" of Eve Online without having to spend all that time behind their pc. They are what makes the market fueled, be happy.
Besides that, who doesnt love to go afk while traveling 40 jumps through highsec and come back, savely arrived at your destination hours later? ^^

Why is this 'feature' still in the game? You want to make highsec more safe by removing features used to AFK in highsec? We are through the looking glass now.  Speaking of AFK game play. Lets create a Scenario. Suppose I am multi boxing and I have a character logged in to lets say Uedama III and another in, oh I don't know, lets say somewhere in Deklein? I have a guy running fleet booster in Deklein, he doesn't need to be paying attention, he's behind a POS Bubble so he can watch his Uedama char and see if anyone is trying to Auto Pilot through the system in fat old freighters. He see's one and a bunch of his buddies, all running anoms in Deklein can flip to their dual boxed AFK account and go out and kill the freighter. Isn't that really just using AFK to get more out of an otherwise boring game? If they removed Auto Pilot, the game would still be kind of tedious but those guys multi boxing Deklein and Uedama would now have to chose. Do I sit on a gate in Uedama and kill freighters the hard way or do I sit in Deklein and do Anoms? Sounds like Win- Win because we don't want those nasty AFK people in EVE, do we? This information is still hilariously wrong. Despite Powers SA actually telling everyone exactly how we do this, people still have no clue. I know how you do it. I don't want to stop you from doing it. That gives you an EVE is becoming trammel soap box to climb up on to. I want to make it harder.
You seems confused between making things harder and making things more annoying.
