I don't understand the relevance of your question. Are you trying to say that the hundreds of freighters killed took an hour each time?

You're looking at this the complete wrong way - logging off shouldn't be an encouraged outcome for any scenario.

But actually ... with adequate data-mining we can say with a very small margin of error whether this disconnect is pure coincidence or is statistically likely to be motivated by the aggression flag.

Can you think of any other scenario that would be impacted? Because I think I can live with a freighter being able to log after 10-20 minutes of being bumped.

You're cute when you're butthurt.

Yeah, I thought you'd opt out of arguing against your own argument.

The bumping didn't in any way hamper the logoff. If you instead mean the aggression timer - well it impacts the logoff conditions of every ship in space. That is to say, everyone at all times.

It's pretty significant.

He usually does. I find it's a common tactic when faced with something irrefutable.

Another option could be for Pend Insurance to refuse to issue rookie ships to criminals. At least the potential criminal will have to engage in the activity of collecting rookie ships in preparation for a crime.

While I don't like the logoffski tactic, there is something wrong with the situation where a player loses control of their character for an hour at the whim of some other player.

Implying my original argument was irrefutable? K.

You infer incorrectly, and you are aware therof.

You are faced with several points that you cannot refute, and thus you dissemble.

If you're referring to my unwillingness to teach someone whose only desire is to talk in circles, well... every masochist has his breaking point.

You can't just wait for a few pages to go by and then pretend that didn't happen.

I wasn't aware I had tried. Your question was invalid and you refused to let me teach you why so there wasn't anything left to be said.

You spell and grammar incorrectly. I can hardly be faulted for misinterpreting the thought process behind your broken English.

I now understand the reasoning behind putting in the aggression timer in the first place. It was put in place to keep capitals (I am assuming it was with combat capitals the timer was targeting) from logging out when aggressed. If that is indeed the case then just take the timer out of high sec space (unless of course you shoot back). Problem solved.

Now with that being said, I understand why all the pro-aggression timer folks don't want see the timer go away and its ok you guys can admit you don't want to see your cash cow dry up. Its ok to feel that way its human nature but to try and gloss over it as something else is just plain silly.

CCP put in a feature, players figured a way to turn into something that I really don't think it was intended for. Now its just a matter of how CCP is going to handle it. If it is intended I don't think it was a very good business decision to disenfranchise a large chunk of your player base.

You asked me to spoon feed you literature you aren't qualified to read. It would have been irresponsible of me to acquiesce

Why do you people think ganking bads in empire is something new?

Yes.

Ganking is accepted all of eve knows this. And most of us agree with it. But the aggression timer initiated on a bumped freightor by a ganker so that he can fail as many times as needed to acheive his goal is just bullshit

I never said it was anything new, but the aggression timer is and the way its being utilized does not seem to be what it was intended for. It also seems since I quite playing back in 2010 and coming back 3 years later the rate of hi sec ganks seems to be much higher then it used to be and the targets have become a lot bigger.

Its working exactly as intended and ganking is at a near record low.

Again friend, I'm not sure you realise how juvenile "I know the answer but can't tell you" appears to be.

readers of the thread who might, you know, think it really weird you would rather spend, by now, nearly 5000 words telling someone why they can't take 30 seconds pasting a URL.
