Hey, I just resubbed after a bit away from the game. Can you entertain me with crazy stories about how awesome it is to fly around and shoot stationary objects in space that don't shoot back for hours on end? I'm in a nostalgic mood. |

I think the goons by and large have done a huge amount of good for the game catching issues like this.
However, claims that in response you will spam thousands of these seems a bit silly to me, sorry.
You simply aren't going to find pilots willing to devote the time necessary every day to actually do an activity like that effectively. You need to check these things every, single, day... to collect the goods so that they will continue to siphon.
All jokes aside, I really do think most of your pilots will decide they have better things to do after a few days of that.
it's not about that. Every not-CFC POS we interrupt drives down supply, thus increasing profits on CFC POS-mined minerals. We spent weeks interdicting ice, huge logistical efforts to shut down Jita and we basically frogstomp hostiles starting by cutting their economies out from underneath them before actually fighting for sov. If you think we won't find people to harass lowsec pubbies by stealing and/or choking supply for our own economic beneift, you're sorely misinformed. |

They don't look to terribly difficult to take down actually. How long do you estimate for a single BS to remove one?
Let's say, for instance, it's 10 minutes. You can drop at least 2 in that time if you're scanning, let's say 4-5 if you know the planet/moons you're going for. At 10m per module, they're cheap enough to keep battleships busy for as long as they want to stay logged in. |

2. CCP, you really need to fix AFK cloaking along with this.
You realize, of course, that at 100 units per hour production, arguing for a percentage adjustment is basically no different from saying "I think it should be X value instead of Y."
Because percent.
per centum - look it up. |

What do you think our small group of guys who suicide billions of isk a day ganking hi-sec freighters will do with this feature?
Go to forums and cry oceans before it's even released? You should show some respect, that man knows more and has discovered more about eve mechanics than all of the posters combined in this thread.
Nice "Leave Brittany Alone!" post there. |

If your idea of a good game is rampant price manipulation, barriers for entry for new pilots being much larger and the richest, most entrenched nullsec entities getting richer, then go hog wild.
Personally I'd rather see bad ideas fixed before release, lower barriers for entry and some sort of existential threat to ourselves and some of the other nullsec old bloods.
The sort of binary logic that anything someone in Goonswarm doesn't like must be good is problematic, not the least of reasons why being that we also pay subscriptions or PLEX for this game and it's in our vested interest that it not be overly boring or troublesome to play. |

But why in this topic, over 70% of all comments are by goons? And all of them, is about how bad siphons are, and how they will crush all of us.
For the uninitiated, rule #1 is never stop posting.

For the illiterates, that line's from Macbeth. That's a Shakespeare joint. It's about how when you get your way it's not always the happy celebration you think it is.
Sort of like how the "raar goons hate it so I must love it" are going to feel. Only they won't post that in iambic. |

Instead of covops/T2 industrials, you'd probably see them dropped mostly by warp stabbed interceptors...
But that would keep the most deserving individuals from maximizing their potential. A pox on you for suggesting that the providers be regulated in such a way. |
