Yes, I lost that vindicator. No, the loss doesnt **** me off. It's the way I lost it. Astarte hunting npcers around lowsec. I decide to pay him a visit. Warp to a belt, find him there, and voila. I lock, engage, and take him to half armor. At this time, local jumps. Curse and scorpion warp in. Goodbye cap, goodbye ability to lock anything. I look for a decent fight, and I get a 'Yey letsjustgoandbecoolandjamhim' encounter. Being jammed 100% after the scorp warped in, I lasted a little longer than 1 minute due to the curses nos. If having 1 ship totally remove your ability to do anything lock wise, and another remove your ability to repair damage TOTALLY isnt overpowered, then I guess eve sucks.
The point of this post. Delete ECM. It is a worthless peice of **** which does nothing to eve either way. All it does is create whines (such as this) and alot of un-fun and monotonous fights. ATM, capacitor power and, obviously, the ability to lock faster than the other person is i-win in eve. Do not say 'Omfg ur skilz sux lol' or 'lol get sum skilz' or anything along those lines. That would not have helped here. The fact that 3 ships can take down a 5 billion ISK ship is not the problem. It is the fact that just ONE can completely disable its ability to put up any form of fight. Fun, isnt it. ---

Originally by: Cloudis it was a curse and apoc that warped in.. and apoc hade no ecm, so I did both nos and ecm in the curse:) And yes the curse rocks
Something had ecm other than the curse. That or it had a tracking disruptor. ---

Originally by: Anderson So you were jammed or TD'd? If you are TD'd you can still lock, and it's fairly easy to tell if you can lock or not...
I was jammed and TD'd. The jam, looking at fraps, failed right at the end of the fight (Like 10% struc left) ---

Originally by: Porter Hadlend I do feel your pain... I am both looking forward to the ECM change and fearing it a little because I'll have to find a slightly different setup for my ishtar.
Tracking disruptors / sensor damps. At least the other person gets a chance to fight back with them fitted. Heh, the 50% ECM nerf does **** all tho. I've still been jammed for minute long periods by a single multispec II on SiSi  ---

Originally by: Tammarr So... you now complain on the module that have helped you immensly? I sure think this should put some perspective into you, and how your victims felt. Except ofc they've been blatantly tricked =)
Fly safe
I used ECM on that navy raven. Because it had seige II, which hurt. My fit doesnt consist of ECM 99.99% of the time. ---

Originally by: Tammarr I dont know everything you've shot to pieces. I do know some of the popular stories here include "was jammed most of the time" and if that siegeII hurt, did you go fit an ecm and your opponent was friendly enough to wait for you to do this, or was it already on there? :)
I have, on average, about 20 minutes from initiating the scan of a victims ship to the first shot fired. So, plenty of time to re-fit. ---

Originally by: Plim I still think that ECM should be limited to ECM ships, and should require more SP investment. But if you will walk into a gank, it dosen't make much difference either way 
If I wasnt nossed, my tank wouldve only been going down at about 5% per rep cycle. I had the astarte on half armor quickly, and once that popped, that 5% would have gone. Oh well. ---

Originally by: Roxanna Kell You know you could ve bailed once you saw those ships in scanner inbound, or do you not keep an eye on scanner either?
As soon as local jumped I turned my vindi around and attempted to MWD to an aligned point. Alas, it was too late  ---

Originally by: Xaeon Just FYI about the ECM too. We had actually fitted specifically to kill you - so the curse only had gal jammers on as well as the tracking disruptor.
And you were looking for a "fair-fight" using a 5bn isk faction bs to take on a command ship? Irony?
I never said fair once. Only fun. ECM = not fun. You did a good job with the trap, just ECM annoyed me. Im cooled down now tho. Ah well, s' just a game. Enjoy the modules (I guess) ---

Originally by: Arii Smith I liked you more before you made this post Lofty, however I do agree that ECM needs to be changed.
The arguments I see that "because everyone can use it, it is balanced" is a load of rubbish. ECM needs to be altered in some way, and just because Lofty is a hypocrite does not make him any less right.
Hypocritical as I am, I am trying to eliminate using ECM on my dominix at all, in favour of dual reps w/ a cap injector. Only thing I use ECM against are t2 seige ravens, never know when theyll load up rage  ---

Originally by: Xaeon Fair enough, and we will  It's getting a knock in Kali anyhow - so the nerf is coming.
Well, its not coming too hard. I still had my hyperion jammed for 3 consecutive cycles by a single Multi II on SiSi Just luck I guess. ---

Originally by: Weix Lofty, you narcissistic little brat, will you stop wasting space on this forum ffs!!! IMO you are too dumb to **** and to much of a coward to take on a real fight as I have bumped in too many post saying ' Killed and tricked by L...' Now YOU are killed (not even tricked) yourself in your fancy Vindicator while attacking a lone rat hunter... LOL. Dont cry about ECM being overpowered considering your own strategy taking advantage of other peoples trust to get rich. So please, and for the sake of many other EVE citizens, stop posting these crappy topics (you almost start to look like Tiller) and spare us the products spawning from your apoptotic brain.
If you read the whole thread, you'd see that I know I made a mistake falling for an obvious trap, and that I do not care too much about loosing the actual vindicator. It is that there was no way for me to possibly fight back due to ECM removing my ability to lock at all. Yes, I know I've killed people in hi-sec and that I've used ECM, but now that I have had it used against me in a real, expensive combat scenario, I've stopped using it upon my dominix. It's ghey and should be returned to how it was before, using stacking to decide what would be jammed. ---

Originally by: X ChaosX I bet that raven with t2 siege didn't enjoy not being able to fight back, but its alright because he hurt a bit isn't it? According to you, you were hurting the Astarte a bit, so why is using ecm wrong there?
I didnt know just how lame it was previously  ---

Originally by: Roxanna Kell Lofty, id like to say i told you so. ITS e-o man, lol, what did you expect. People here talk about honor/fair play/karma, and all that b**ls**t that only happens in Ancient Real life. 90% of the posters here, just want to **** you off, there nothing else to it.g
I know It makes me laugh when people try so hard. Was a fun experiment with the vindi tho, but yknow, 5b of mods < I-Win button. ---

Well if you are talking about the MDK fight clearly you weren't jammed all the time or you wouldn't have taken him into armour?
Plus you aren't the new Ginger M coz annoying and lame as he is he doesn't go around offering people help then using the lame "invite alt at war" and killing them. Least he actually war decs people.
Good work MDK always nice to see a whining forum attention seeker lose alot 
It was a massacre until the curse warped in. Only then did the fight begin. The astarte barely dented my armor. ---
