Same could be said of the many many outposts in null. I have no idea whether you're cloaked, or sitting in your station afk, or at your keyboard sitting in station watching local. Which means I have to suffer the same thing you do whenever I make more than one or two jumps given the ridiculous number of outposts in null these days means there's usually an afk player in a station every few jumps.
At least if you disconnect while you're afk in station, it doesn't eject you into space and leave you sitting there to be scanned down. It does that to me when I'm cloaked and disconnect.

I use the combat probes trick too. Generally is not needed cause as soon as you show in local they leaving you free to farm their sites/anomalies.
But if there's some though guy insisting in staying in his home system even when you show in local then can just launch combat prbes and everyone vapor.

So do collapsible entrances, different rat AI and stronger rats, no stations, no supercaps, no cynos...

Yeah if there were no cynos' I'd be engaging a lot more but as it is its not worth attacking anything that can't be killed faster than they can drop a cyno.
If one thing stops pvp in null / low sec in anything but cheap ships its cyno's not afk cloaking. |

You're joking, right? Without cynos we wouldn't have epic large fights and it would take us much longer to get anywhere.

I still want for my character a cloak with texk "AFK" on the back. Hood would be nice, but not necessary.
As my old maths teacher used to say: "Statistics are like bikinis: It's what they don't show that's interesting".

Hate to break it to you but there were epic large fleet battles way before cynos's. The only ships that NEED cyno's are capitals since they can't use gates.
As for the taking much longer, that's a good thing imo. |

So, what you are saying is that the null-sec pixel hard-men of Eve Online, who spend so much of their time berating hi-sec folk as care-bears, too scared to move to null where the 'real' game is played, are themselves terrified of a cloaked ship which cannot harm them in any way.
It seems to me that the only place many null-sec pixel hard-men are actually tough, is on the forums.

Oh man, I totally forgot about those other things ruining the game too. Also Local is ruining the game or saving it depending on whatever side is shouting about it too.

I think OP is the first player ever to say they dont like cloaks.

Listen, just ignore and discount the opinions of people who come to these threads and say spectacularly stupid things like "cloaky camping can't harm you in any way", because they're either cloaky camper alts trying to justify their pointless existence or they've never actually had to live in systems where such cloaky campers sit all day.

If ganking miners is a legitimate way to stop competition, then cloaking is a legitimate way to stop my enemies from earning isk, be it mining, ratting or mission running etc.

CCP seems to think more cloaks are needed, rather than fewer. Otherwise why would they give them out as holiday gifts? Merry Christmas!

All this is likely going to be addressed in a future patch/expansion. If anyone has been following eve-ru user Tandi once again posted a prediction of currently unreleased features thought to be planned for release during Rubicon 1.1. Although currently unconfirmed by any official CCP developer or employee, these rumours have been taken seriously due to the accuracy of previous predictions from the same source.
*The above is an exert from the themittani.com article on the same subject as written By Jayne Fillon.
You can read the full article here I would also like to point out the same person also talked about some changes coming to local chat found here
So if one takes everything together it does look like there are some changes coming to the "intel" system(s) in eve. Which would in part help to deal with the very thing your whining about.

Totally agree, area denial is a perfectly legitimate military strategy.
