Until local is removed I don't care how much hate there is for afk cloakers leave them alone, it's a viable tactic against lazy or incompetent people, besides the tears are epic. |

You couldn't be more wrong.

Boils my blood when theres a troll laughing at me and i cannot smack it in the kisser. I admit that removing local as we know it will help mitigate this.
Still have a problem with anomaly denial though... it is like i said it is. CCP cannot fix that, so they say its an "accepted tactic".
Broken Science i tell you... Removing local will not stop AFK cloaking. That has already been talked about. We need to discuss removing the incentive to go away from the keyboard while cloaked in a hostile system. My idea will give you the ability to uncloak the AFK cloaker then use normal probes to locate and destroy the ship. This will protect active cloakers while removing the incentive to go away from the PC.
Removing local wont stop it but it will reduce it's effectiveness, if the guy is genuinely afk but no one knows he's there then they will go about there business as if the system were empty, local is so much more a problem than afk cloakers it's not even funny.
Instant intel any time someone enters your system regardless of where you are or what you are doing, tell me that's not broke.  |

You guys here know that local as we know it is going to be removed, right!? IF that happens it will be replaced with somthing of equal use. Anything otherwise would wreck nullsec and CCP knows it. Having free ganks each and every day is a fantasy. If somehow it happened you would have them for a few months before people leave Nullsec and EVE in droves now can we focus on the topic please?
Afaic local has already wrecked null sec to certain degree.
CCP has always had reservations about local and the free information it provides, is there anybody here that thinks the local mechanics in wormholes were just an idea they thought of over lunch, it's obvious to me they wanted to look at a possible solution to k-space local and where better to implement it.
Either way, removing local will fix afk cloaking, you can say it won't as often as you like but that doesn't alter the fact.

Still plenty of half baked ideas for a problem that is easily solved by removing local.
