On my main i am in null sec and seen enemies to my alliance go in each of our systems with an alt and go cloaked for days and days on end. this disrupts our operations to ratting mining and other profitable isk ways. it started to tear down my alliance these people sitting cloaked off grid waiting to pick off the easy targets when we least expect it and hotdropping us time to time.. It brought my alliance mostly to a halt.
A few things.
You have an alliance brought to it's knees by a guy who's down at the Kwik-E-Mart mart? Might be time to reassess what you are doing in 0.0.
Second. If you are being hot dropped or picked off then he's not AFK, is he?
Working as intended.

Oh how can we think of something so godly unbalanced!
You mean have 10 ships warp in, dump 40 drones to uncloak and have him locked down in 10 seconds. I can see where that might be a little unnerving.

I can see where that might be a little unnerving. Mr Epeen So move the second you see people warping in. Its meant to be troublesome for the hunter so if 10km is too low, make it 15 or 20.
I'm not saying it's a bad idea.
I was just giving an example of how it would be used for real as opposed to a forum mind puzzle. These things need to be looked at from all sides to achieve the right balance.
I actually sympathize with CCP in this respect. There are a lot of variables that don't get thought about until it's too late and then there is a whole new set of problems.
So probe at a distance to make Mr AFK sit up and take notice but also make it hard for him to be uncloaked might be the way to go. Then again I imagine it's possible to write up a script to auto warp if something shows up on grid.
Or not. I don't really have a clue. I only write scripts for mods in Bethesda games and have never tried any for EVE so I could be completely wrong :P
