I want a new game mechanic implemented however this may need to be discussed with a broader audience in GD first. Its pretty simple, there should be a possibility to catch pods and bring them to an ingame Prison. Those Prisons should be Time Capsules where the catched player has to stay for some time. I would say 1 day up to 1 week
various features could be implemented that catching other players do not get too easy. Maybe need of special modules, having at least 5-10 people involved in the capturing process, and a special prison fee
please add your ideas, this should bring consequences to the game for liars, traitors and scammers. I feel those are needed because they are missing at the moment! OMG! the asteroid is depleted! |

My idea is that you already have plenty of tools to do it by yourself. Set up your law and enforce it.
EVE is not a game with a premade ethic, good people and bad people, Order and Chaos. Are the bulding and playing it. It's part of the game.

Ok, how about, since this a suggestion for a feature to be added to the game, it belongs on Features and Ideas, not GD?

stupid is no argument
its in GD to get feedback of a broader audience, mentioned in the first line, it should be discussed before implementation
however you do not add anything, except your words, stupid, butthurt etc. very thoughtful again OMG! the asteroid is depleted! |

I don't think a prison with active players would work. If someone scams you, blow up their ship, wardec their corp or find some other way to cost them ISK.
I do think that a prison full of all the banned players would be cool. One that you could walk through like the captains quarters. Have little tags on the bottom of the cage that says the date they were banned and the reason.
Have it set up like a "Silence of the Lambs" walk through the cages... "Badabing Salvage Corp at your service. Taking care of all abandoned wreck sites, making the universe a better place. One pile of crap at a time." |

Nope I'm not angry at all, if I was I wouldn't be sat here chortling to myself at the amount of crap contained in 99% of your posts. You seem to have an extremely high opinion of both yourself and your ideas, despite the amount of ridicule they bring upon you.
I believe that's called hubris, and it has been the downfall of many a man.
edit - oooo scary, I've now been blocked by yet another shiptoaster for disagreeing with them, oh well not my loss. OP you are about as wrong, in your perception of what Eve is, as you can get without being Ace.

Or scam them back. This is EVE. Here, being a sneaky bastard is not punished by mechanics. You have to do that yourself. Work for your victory. Blatant alt posting? In my EVE?

So... the actual original post that I replied to, has been edited to be less idiotic?
*goes to check*
No, now it's actually worse than before. Here's a tip for you. If you don't like scammers, go kill them. Because their actions are perfectly, 100% legal in EVE. All a scammer is doing is taking advantage of someone's greed, stupidity, and poor reading comprehension. It's a good thing, because the people losing money to scams deserve to be relieved of their possessions.
So, I stand by my statement of butthurt. So, tell us how you got scammed? Not posting on my main, and loving it.-á Because free speech.-á |

I've seen the idea of "space jail" brought up a few times over the years. Always has been shot down because you are preventing someone from playing a game they are paying for.
In my opinion this is nothing like scamming someone out of a plex, different issues in my mind.
I'm all for giving people mechanics for screwing someone over, but this just seems like a bad idea. |

Mine are not so cute in comparison. In fact, during a wormhole op the other day, one of them jumped on my keyboard and managed to turn my screen upside down. So I was playing upside down EVE while griding about 30 sigs in a C1 for about an hour, before my wife looked up how to fix it. (Windows 8 sucks horrendously on a laptop, btw)
Cats, eh? Not posting on my main, and loving it.-á Because free speech.-á |

When you actually post something worth discussing, and do it in readable English (complete with punctuation and capitalisation), then I'll stop pointing out your obvious trolling/ misunderstanding. I understand what you're suggesting and I'm telling you that it is the epitome of a bad idea, as are a lot of other people.

I get what you're trying to say. I don't agree that putting someone in a 'jail' and limiting his activities is the same as podding someone.

I think about it for obious scam mechanics nown in the game, if somebody uses those then the opposite party gets a voting right against that player like a killright you receive when shotdown in nullsec
at some point those voting rights (maybe more than one needs to be used) could be used to send a scammer to prison, maybe a week is much however it should be depending how much votes that player gets
if a player scammes billions after billions, I'm fine with one week prison and just beeing able to mine there and do some basic stuff, its consequences all are waiting for... he can play but in boundaries, it gives more to scamming as well, at the moment they do not have to fear anything, scamming would be much more implemented and exciting
at the moment there are zero consequences for scamming, thats just boring OMG! the asteroid is depleted! |

various features could be implemented that catching other players do not get too easy. Maybe need of special modules, having at least 5-10 people involved in the capturing process, and a special prison fee
please add your ideas, this should bring consequences to the game for liars, traitors and scammers. I feel those are needed because they are missing at the moment!
Edit: maybe they should still be able to do basic stuff like mining, lets say if they mine a certain amount for the guy who took them to prison, then they are free upfront
Edit: the prison mechanic could also be implemented by a special voting system, maybe scammed people can go together and vote, however there would need to be a mechanic to identify scammed people, so you get a voting right comparable to killrights
Nice, I forsee yet another mechanic ripe with corruption, scams and exploitation.

There are consequences for scamming, however the consequences are down to you to enforce and devise. Your jail mechanic is just plain bad, and would be abused by all and sundry if it ever came to be.

The fun thing about that other PvP game I played was that players could assemble a posse as a police force to not only protect themselves, their cities. Since the game allowed people stealing, and if you didn't travel with friends to collect what you dropped when you die, you lose...everything...including all the gold you carry...that isn't bound (and only a few things could be bound, and they're not permanent. There's wear timers too, you will not even own the item forever). No nonsense, free loot to any passerby if you die (real meaning of only going out in a group!).
Unlike mercs you hire, it's volunteers with a specific mission -- having fun at thieves expense. Pick up the bounty and go hunting. There wasn't any prison, because the "law" was harsh, the criminal is to be executed and his head mounted on a pike before a city gate (with a vivid description of the dude's name, crime and note on his fate). Players could do what they pleased to that head, and sometimes were explicit.
But they were big boys and it was part of the fun in the game. Because it was so difficult to be a thief (with the high consequences) the thieves in that game were RP pros. Remember one that paraded outside a city with a big show insulting the powers inside, taunting them to fight him (maxed out toon with RL value $5,000 weapons, actual cost of them. He was like a raid boss). It took three days to finally get his head on a pike.
This is why I consider the epeening in games to be very flat. There's little consequences (look at all the ways criminals in EvE can get away with crimes, even before CONCORD). If players really want to step up with the big boys, there's no hand holding. You can lose everything in game. Even your Jita 4-4 shop in the station can be robbed wholesale.
A posse system would be a good addition to EvE, which isn't a merc corp. It's designed like a raid but on the criminals ingame. Might as well have a bounty system that actually means something. Not criminals who mock their 200,000,000 ISK prices on their heads. "In a world of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act." ~George Orwell

Of course the longer they're in prison the more skills they lose (sounds familiar).
Then you could have prison break-outs but then CONCORD would have to be de-scaled in power so that they could be destroyed in such break-outs.

But that's the problem - even the obvious scam mechanics aren't necessarily obvious to the computer. Maybe somebody just doesn't have the ISK to cover the buy order (margin trading scam), was aware that he was paying too much for a ship in a trade window or was rejected from a corp after paying a recruitment fee for a good reason.

I agree that there should be an option to take revenge whenever you feel "wronged", but I assume you also agree that one man's need for revenge shouldn't enable the whole world to harass innocent bystanders.
Probably the best way to fight scammers is to teach new players about the scams.

if it only happens once you will not get enough votes against you to endup in prison, so the mechanic still works I think
innocent can not be harassed because of the link, of the mechanic, CCP would set one up like the killright thing, I'm pretty sure it could be done somehow and it would add to the game perfectly, for sure a lot of stuff would need to be thought through in detail however
in addition to that I already teach scammers what i think of them, its my little pvp against them :) got some good feedback on that as well alread  OMG! the asteroid is depleted! |

Indeed that's what I usually do. Plus I don't think I've ever been scammed and I'm not asking for new mechanics here, I'm perfectly happy with the ability to stick a bunch of Blasters up their exhaust pipe. All I'm saying is that I understand the OP's frustration with people hiding in stations and NPC corps - changing any of that would probably break the game for lots of people though. darmwand Repossession Agent http://www.repo-corp.net/ Recruitment is OPEN |

Under what context?
I can see (maybe) that part possibly being added to killrights, but how do you determine this criteria for "scammers"? Particularly since under almost any false pretense I can accuse someone of being a scammer and then force-undock them.
There is no possible way to track the mechanic of "being scammed". It can't psssibly give you some flag to activate on someone else.
And if the criteria is as loose as the OP seems to suggest, then it's open to vast, disgusting amount of abuse. The cure for a problem that doesn't really exist, would wind up being one of the most broken mechanics in the history of EVE. It's shortsighted and foolish to even suggest such a thing.
You want to trap them in prison? Station camp their asses. You want "revenge"?, then run a few locator agents, and gank them when they fly something shiny.
Stop asking CCP to do all your legwork for you, or to protect you against your own mistakes. Not posting on my main, and loving it.-á Because free speech.-á |

There's harsher games out there than EvE, that h-u-r-t even for newbies. They don't have to stage "danger" by "end-gamers" to gank lowbies or scam them, the game itself hurts even the gankers and thieves. They stick to the more profitable activities that's worth the effort and consequences.

Here's your checklist:
First of all, don't get scammed. It's absurdly easy. (if anything, buff scamming)
Secondly, deal with it. Deal with being ganked, bumped, scammed, or any of this other crap that all the hurt feelings brigade want to call "griefing".
Thirdly, correct any behavior that led to you being a target, and move on.

Knowledge is power, I know how the scam works, therefore I won't fall for it again.
Harry's idea is so open to abuse that it's ridiculous, although he can't see that because it's his idea and therefore an excellent one.

OP - just imagine an situation which is now and then very often - ganking.
What will prevent some gank squaq to vote to jail absolutely honest and not-scamming capsuleers?
If for example some corp with 500+ people will send corpletter to all with order to vote for XYZ, just because he dont paid "protection" fee?
Where is court? Where are judges?
Anyway, I think if is there some jail for scammer really set up (by some miracle or whatewer), than there should be also some detention facility for people who let them to be scammed, some lunatic-asylum kind of camp for this mindless people...

If such a mechanic was implemented, ways to avoid it or get others unintentionally flagged by it would appear within a week.

Horrible idea. The point is that this game is a sandbox. Players do what they enjoy doing, if that includes scamming and awoxing then that is up to them. That is what players love about EVE. How many thousand players joined the game after huge scams and thefts from in game were published on the internet? Ever wonder why that is?
You also have the issue of who would continue to pay for a game when they get stuck in a prison and can only mine. Most people don't want that and you would get a lot of unsubs.
I find it amusing that you post such a clearly ridiculous idea in GD claiming that you want feedback from a wider audience and then anyone who tries to point out its flaws and explain how it wouldn't work just gets shouted at for being unhelpful and then blocked. Ever heard of constructive criticism? In this case we are constructively telling you that this idea would never ever work and would hurt EVE. |

This is most frequently seen from the "self esteem" generation. They are incapable of telling the difference between criticism and a personal attack. If we say their idea sucks, they equate it to us saying that they suck.
They literally have "opinion" tied directly to their self worth. It's part of the eventual results of "equality of thought" being so thorough inculcated into the school system.
Basically, they are morons, whose feelings get hurt at the slightest pretext, and then proceeds the crying over spilled milk. "Oh, no! My precious feelings!".
Quote:Ever heard of constructive criticism?

Again, folks are missing the idea of what a sandbox is -- players would want a prison as well. Being that it is a sandbox game, those mechanics and game play are equally valid.
Cops and robbers gameplay is classic and works in concept and reality.

But that's the problem - even the obvious scam mechanics aren't necessarily obvious to the computer. Maybe somebody just doesn't have the ISK to cover the buy order (margin trading scam), was aware that he was paying too much for a ship in a trade window or was rejected from a corp after paying a recruitment fee for a good reason. Otherwise I could just send you a few million ISK, claim you scammed me by not doubling it and get an angry mob to imprison you...
I don't believe there are "scam mechanics". The scams are real scams created by the player, and other players really do fall for them. It's not something you learn from a skill book and level up. There are no "scam skills" in game.
That's part of the reason that the computers can't figure out what's a scam and what is not. Computers may not be smart enough to understand the difference between a scam and someone who made a mistake. In fact, as is proven time and again is that people always figure out how to use computers to do their dirty work for them. It's why online scams are so common in real life.
In real life there are no software to detect scams. To detect malware, viruses, and the like, yes, but to detect scams? All that you'll see from security firms is advice on how to spot scams. In game, reality is reflected. There are no systems to detect scams. It depends on the experience and awareness of a person to realize when he's being scammed.

Still shorter than WoW, EQ2, Defiance, SWTOR, or, you know, any of the other ones.
[Edit: Also, you can still totally scam people in those games. All you have to do is misrepresent the value of your goods within the mechanics allowed. I used to scam people in WoW all the time, by your definition. Most people on my server would charge 30g for a mage port, I charged 40. I guess I was a scammer...

Being that it is a sandbox game, those mechanics and game play are equally valid. Cops and robbers gameplay is classic and works in concept and reality. Really want to be a criminal RP the part, but there's risks vs rewards to also think about (and criminals aren't babies that need devs to hand hold them to even play). If players want a prison system then it's up to the players to build one, and all the necessary infrastructure to support it. If Harry want to punish scammers then he has to do it using the existing mechanics, instead of asking CCP to do it for him. I can already think of 2 obvious ways to bypass any prison in Eve, jumpclones and self destruction. We're supposedly immortal so committing suicide to bypass a prison sentence is trivial.
Maybe you don't know how scamming works....
1) Get a crappy alt 2) Spam all day 3) Some idiot falls for scam 4) Spam all day 5) Another idiot 6) Spam all day 7) another idiot 8) .... and so on and so forth 9) Biomass 10) Rinse and repeat
No undocking is nowhere in the list so no "game mechanic" is there for any "Retribution". Now the idea is putting in an actual risk for something that is well riskless. |

I know how the scams work, although I can think of several "scammers" that would disagree with how you think they work. I'll even give you a couple of names of "scammers" that undock, Miilla and Erotica 1, both of which I am sure would love you to try and gain some retribution.
Scams only work because the "mark" is too stupid or greedy to read properly.

Anyway, I think if is there some jail for scammer really set up (by some miracle or whatewer), than there should be also some detention facility for people who let them to be scammed, some lunatic-asylum kind of camp for this mindless people...
the voting right is linked to a game mechanic, not all people can just vote to get someone into prison, I'm sure the scam tactics can be put into a mechanic, at least the biggest ones, they can be identified by the computer, most are known, so if those tactics are yoused and you got scammed you just get a voting right that can be used to bring the person to prison in case alot of those voting rights are happening against that special scammer OMG! the asteroid is depleted! |

That is what players love about EVE. How many thousand players joined the game after huge scams and thefts from in game were published on the internet? Ever wonder why that is?
You also have the issue of who would continue to pay for a game when they get stuck in a prison and can only mine. Most people don't want that and you would get a lot of unsubs.
I find it amusing that you post such a clearly ridiculous idea in GD claiming that you want feedback from a wider audience and then anyone who tries to point out its flaws and explain how it wouldn't work just gets shouted at for being unhelpful and then blocked. Ever heard of constructive criticism? In this case we are constructively telling you that this idea would never ever work and would hurt EVE.
you just see one side of the coin, now people who get scammed also need to grind their way up again to get the isk they lost, do they leabe the game because of that?
it is not constructive to call the ideas stupid, therefore all who just do that without any deeper thought about it, will get blocked OMG! the asteroid is depleted! |

If the bounty system had some means of tracking or displaying the reason for the bounty in such manner that when placing a bounty, a list of reasons becomes possible. It would help actually because whenever you see people with a bounty we would wonder why, especially if it was a huge bounty, like "wow, what did that dude do?".
Was it for not honoring ransoms? Was it for gratuitous podding? Noob harvesting? Or was is market scamming? Perhaps it was for being too good at the market, or PVP? Maybe loot stealing or corp theft?
Presently anybody can put a bounty on anybody, but there's no way to track the reason for it. That reason can be important. |

I also have hatred towards people who are mor successful than my scrub as... Wait, no I don't!
Eve is a sandbox game. I'm having difficulty seeing the point of view of anyone who thinks that part of Eve should change. I personally think scamming has been nerfed too hard in my time here. I've never scammed or been a victim of scam AFAIK. Probably because I read contracts and don't invest in stuff like Titans4U. Anyone who falls for those deserves to lose ISK and I include myself if it ever does happen to me.
You can do something about gatecamps, gankers, and the like. Get a group of like-minded people together and give something back to them. What you are saying is you \want CCP to give you protection from meanies instead of learning how to fight in your schoolyard.
TL;DR: people who make threads like this are complaining about one of the core features of the game and are probably not good fits FOR this game.
Or trolling, which is good fun. :) |

A purpose.
1000000000000000 alts running around with 100,000 ISK bounties on their heads for nothing but asking for help in even the help channel, does not make a good bounty system.
When folks don't bother killing folks with 200,000,000 ISK bounties, the system is broken. Such folks (like MarkeeDragon) get them due to celeb status alone. While the real criminal low lifes hide with 20,000,000 ISK bounties in a sea of other 20,000,000 ISK thugs, and still gatecamping AFK.

There's no way an alliance of thousands can manipulated down/up votes. Nope, not a chance.
In fact, this system would be a great idea for one reason: After the crybabies were downvoted to being able to be attacked, they'd either have to stay docked, quit, or become even more victimized.

various features could be implemented that catching other players do not get too easy. Maybe need of special modules, having at least 5-10 people involved in the capturing process, and a special prison fee
please add your ideas, this should bring consequences to the game for liars, traitors and scammers. I feel those are needed because they are missing at the moment!
Edit: maybe they should still be able to do basic stuff like mining, lets say if they mine a certain amount for the guy who took them to prison, then they are free upfront
Edit: the prison mechanic could also be implemented by a special voting system, maybe scammed people can go together and vote, however there would need to be a mechanic to identify scammed people, so you get a voting right comparable to killrights
Edit: maybe prison escape mechanics should be added as well, like people beeing able to free others from prison, maybe there also should be PvP player controlled prisons and PvE prisons controlled by the computer
EvE is that prison.

Yep, Ultima Online had perfect jail system :)
Also, most private servers had jails where it was possible to get out by chopping wood/mining etc :)

I know how the scams work, although I can think of several "scammers" that would disagree with how you think they work. I'll even give you a couple of names of "scammers" that undock, Miilla and Erotica 1, both of which I am sure would love you to try and gain some retribution. Scams only work because the "mark" is too stupid or greedy to read properly.
So your saying that those two own all the other accounts that don't bother undocking and hide behind their anonymity. I also don't consider Erotica a scammer as he/she tells you exactly what to do.
Retribution isn't gained when they undock and then redock. As i tried your suggestion and it's still kind of hard to pew pew inside a station. |

If you really think about it lowsex is sorta like a prison. Get to -5 or lower you sorta stay there and grind sec status back or pay concord their bribe in tags/fee's to "get out of prison".
Some break out only to end up in a different one (the ones traveling through hi sec to some part of the universe with Faction Navy on their butts and random players).
I just think it would be cool to somehow put people in a system they can't get out of until the "sentence" is fulfilled.... mining still comes to mind as a good torture method  |

CCP does it all the time... look at safeties and the easy button on "exploration".
Problem:Players somehow shoot things in high sec or take something that ain't theirs and they complained. Solution: Safeties.
Problem: What is triangulation... i never passed maths so how can I explore if I can't understand probes or basic geometry. Solution: Click this button and we find it for you.

Low sec status doesn't actually prevent you from entering highsec, the faction navies only prevent you from getting too comfortable while you're there. And it doesn't prevent you from actually playing the game in any case like this "vote to ban" nonsense does. Twitter: @EVEAndski

Two of those problems are quite different. Particularly because they aren't player created problems.
CCP said it best themselves, but I'll paraphrase. Having a clunky UI or cumbersome mechanics for something doesn't equate to the difficulties of EVE being a harsh universe.
The probing system, both times it got revamped, was harder than it needed to be. It's a bit too easy now, yeah, but that's still better than having poor design elements get in your way to accomplishing a task more than the mechanics of the difficulty.
It was harder to figure out how to probe, than it was to mathematically scan down sites. Triangulation aside, it was just too clunky.
Safeties? That I can see an argument for also. Many times my cat has jumped on my laptop and cost me a ship becaue he hit F1. Once again, punishments to the player for not being able to adhere to poor design elements is different.
Gatecamping? Eh, I have no answer for that. That one, I concede the point. Doesn't stop people from being moronic and autopiloting anyway, though. Not posting on my main, and loving it.-á Because free speech.-á |

So what you're saying is that CCP should make Concord pod criminals because players are too damn lazy to do it themselves? GTFO.
If you want to instigate consequences for criminal activity beyond what already exists then get out there and encourage players to get off their collective backside and do something about it, instead of relying on CCP to apply a band-aid.
It's up to players to provide consequences over and above the already existing ones, CCP have given the players a toolbox, it's up to the players to use it.

Folks are put on /ignore because they can't even debate but by the lowest denominator. It's just a way to avoid even wasting time seeing what they spam. What they post back isn't worthy to even answer, no matter how they try to egg a response.  "In a world of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act." ~George Orwell

Yes. He was accurately rating the merits of your thread on the troll subtlety scale:

But that isn't what you said. That's what you're saying now, after you basically got slapped down about saying you wanted people getting a 7 day functional ban based on the groupthink "peer" votes of a bunch of butthurt carebears. Not posting on my main, and loving it.-á Because free speech.-á |

Its pretty simple, there should be a possibility to catch pods and bring them to an ingame Prison. Those Prisons should be Time Capsules where the catched player has to stay for some time. I would say 1 day up to 1 week
Ok, breathe deeply and think of a nice green open field. You are safe, there is water splashing in the distance, you're not cold anymore, you are calm and relaxed. You are walking on a path of crushed gravel, the sun is shining overhead. You can only hear my voice...well, and the prison gates as they close behind you ;)
Seriously though, I think there are far too many of us who would love to have "In Prison" under their name, right next to our "Wanted" sign.

Come on, everyone is being nice, considering your proposal; normally in cases like this average EVE players were already charging bounties on you and camping your station 24/7.
And you're lucky your idea about prison is not implemented or they had already found a way to send you in your own jail.

Could the person buying the overpriced items also be jailed? They are not exactly faultless here.

Why scamming, covert operations and other honest EVE professions should be penalized?
OPs ideas are BAD and highly abuse-able... as always.
Anyway, IIRC i'm in his block list so he probably cant read this. Opinions are like assholes. Everybody's got one and everyone thinks everyone else's stinks. |

It's hardly bypassed. If players aren't willing to pod the guy as he flies through, they don't have much cause to whine.[/quote]
I guess not everyone can read. Go back to the first post and you will notice it said jailed not banned. Meaning you can still log in and play. Just do it in jail. Like I said before in order to pod someone they sort of have to undock instead of biomass but then again I am not read impaired. If you decide not to play on those days then that is your choice. Starting to sound like theones that claim AFK Cloakers cost them isk by being afk.

I'm wondering if Harry has succeeded in blocking me yet? He promised to do it on page 2, by page 8 he'd still failed to find the block posts button, even though I told him precisely where it was.

If I would try to salvage this thread and leave only the post that are within The Rules, there would hardly be a thread left. Thread locked as it is deemed beyond repair.
2. Be respectful toward others at all times.
The purpose of the EVE Online forums is to provide a platform for exchange of ideas, and a venue for the discussion of EVE Online. Occasionally there will be conflicts that arise when people voice opinions. Forum users are expected to be courteous when disagreeing with others.
3. Ranting is prohibited.
A rant is a post that is often filled with angry and counterproductive comments. A free exchange of ideas is essential to building a strong sense of community and is helpful in development of the game and community. Rants are disruptive, and incite flaming and trolling. Please post your thoughts in a concise and clear manner while avoiding going off on rambling tangents.
4. Personal attacks are prohibited.
Commonly known as flaming, personal attacks are posts that are designed to personally berate or insult another forum user. Posts of this nature are not beneficial to the community spirit that CCP promote and as such they will not be tolerated.
5. Trolling is prohibited.
Trolling is a defined as a post that is deliberately designed for the purpose of angering and insulting other players in an attempt to incite retaliation or an emotional response. Posts of this nature are disruptive, often abusive and do not contribute to the sense of community that CCP promote.
