Politics aside.

Log in Traps.

CCP, Get this sorted. Ive simply had enough and im sure many, many others are feeling the same.

It has come to the point where i am planning on leaving the game if this is not sorted very soon. I have been a dedicated player for 2 years and never have i been frustrated enough actually consider leaving.

Attacking a POS with a fleet logged off next to it is suicide for 2 reasons.

A combination of 2 factors.

1) They Will have Acess to however many extra ships mid fight

2) A unbearable lag bomb will hit every in the system when they log on. Effecting people currently logged on more than the offenders logging on.

I dont care about any reprocussions or flames this post recieves. I simply dont care. I loved this game but this is the Biggest Exploit ever, and your simply letting them get away with it.

You may ask for solutions. Well, any solution would be a damsight better than actually 'allowing' this exploit to continue.

Ideas :-

1) U log off in space, if your logged off for more than 15minutes when you log back on you warp back to a random ss in the system.

2) U log off in space, you cannot commit aggression for the first 90 seconds.

3) u log off in space, you cap is completely empty and all guns and missile lanchers hve no ammo in. And you have a 60second activation time before you can load your weapons.


At the end of the day, any solution is better than simply letting this exploit continue. It is giving people a blatent unfair advantage thru use of out of game mechanics.

It is causing major changes in large alliances, and if this is how warfare is going, i wudnt be surprised if every major alliance began to use them. What sort of reputation is that for your game?

For the newer players, it is an absolutly undefendable tactic, no doubt discouraging people from actually continue playing, hell ive played for 2 years and if this goes on for much longer i swear, im going to go looking for a new MMORPG, friggin anything? anything at all which is actually a bit fairer than this.

You cant cover your eyes to this, something has to be done and has to be done NOW. Maybe in Kali, this is not long away, But if it isnt done by the end of this year. I give up hope of it ever leaving, And personally i dont want to be in a game that allows something like this. And you guys KNOW it is wrong.

And yes, if this isnt sorted before next year, all my stuff will be donated to my alliance.

• I would very very much appreciate some DEV imput here, myself and the entire game (obviously apart from the devious bastards using this exploit to move forward in the game)
