I thought I would write something to help new players wanting to travel around in slow expensive ships but too lazy to actually have someone scouting for them or checking the map.
1. set your ap 2. fit plates, extenders and passive hardners 3. always warp to 0 4. if there is someone on the gate waiting for you, QUICKLY CLOSE YOU CLIENT (CTRL+Q) BEFORE YOU UNCLOAK !! 5. log back after 15-30 min, if there are still bad people in local quickly log again (!!!) before you exit warp and you will be perfectly fine
These easy steps will guarantee your safety when travelling around, I hope it helped.
Safe travels folks o/

It might be a bit of a troll post, maybe, but can you deny a good log is the best way to make you almost invulnerable in 0.0?
What I typed probably *is* the best way to survive in 0.0 with the current tools ingame.
I'd like to remind you logging is perfectly kosher for ccp and anyone is allowed to do it.

The sad part about it is that it works.
If you CTRL+Q, you should decloak, and sit still for two minutes, lowering your shields, and disabling all defensive mods. AND the pod should remain after the ship is blown up.
CCP should also hire people to go to your home and slap you on the cheek for being a twit.

I won't rest, until they fix it, like that your ship warps out, but isn't removed from space, until you back log in, which makes you vulnerable to probes (at least for an extended time.) Really quitting with being removed fast from space would require you to follow a regular log out procedure, that would take a bit time. (See my sig) 
Once that's fixed: 'Thanks for the loot, logger !' 
CTD/con-loss vs. log-out. A proposal for a fix. |

Well no one likes logging. If they do it its because it does work best than anything else (stabs, mwds, jammers).

tbh in a bs or heavy tanked ship this works 99% of the time but a hauler is easily popped in the 30 seconds it stays there for and u get just as much time to lock it as u do if they just hit warp.

Can't CCP write a wee line of code into the client to count how many CTRL+Q's the user does in each period between each downtime.....and then post the weekly results on a leaderboard type of thing split down into corps, alliances and individuals?
Also, can't they apply a 24 hour ban on anyone who exceeds 5 CTRL+Q's per day?

I have never met a logger. But I have met lots and lots of people that post in local after they found themselves in their pods claiming to have had lag and a disconnect just slightly after I warp jammed them.
Must me coincidence.
Also apparently it's lame to kill some one if they are lagging or about to get one of those random disconnects slightly after I jam them. So don't forget to convo someone and ask their permisson before you lock or fire. Manners maketh the pirate.

No, so that people can ignore them and then whine about something that is in place to help them. If you die in EVE you did something wrong. It's as simple as that.

How about I park in a low sec system just the other side of a 0.0 chokepoint that is camped to hell, because people know it's an entry point to 0.0.
I wait there, and log in just after the maintenance downtime (the first few minutes it's up) and jump through.
Hey, nobody there! I'm on my way...

How about you just send a suicide alt through in a shuttle every 10 minutes?
Chokepoint gates aren't camped even remotely as often as people think. Theres some that are never camped as well if you can be arsed going to them.

No if's or but's about it , your guide to newer players is lame . What your saying is the best way to enjoy the game is not even play it , cos' thats what pressing Ctrl+Q means .
I might get flamed for this but I don't reckon new players should be flying solo around 0.0 with expensive ships in the first place , UNLESS they join a large 0.0 based corp that can replace ships , travel in groups ect. And by new players I do mean new in the sense someone who has never played EVE before , not some 2 day old alt .
When I started playing I stayed in empire for a few months , learn how to play the game and what was what then went to 0.0 and not before doing my homework , thats what you should be telling people to do . And surely encouraging people to log isn't right ? yes logging to go sleep and stuff is perfectly ok , telling people to log when they risk something ? well.....

You're right. But they definitely aren't camped to hell right after the servers come back up.

New as in, new to 0.0, but this works for everyone tbh.
What I am saying is if you wanna fly your battleship thru 0.0 risk free simply put as much hp buffer on and log when a gate is camped. It works 99% - the only time your ship will be killed before 60 second elapsed is when you run into a BIG camp or gank squad but all the small pirates and solo roamers cannot touch you *at all*.
Lame? It is legal ccp knows about it and does nothing, means they approve it. Now they boosted hp by 25% and still aggro/log timer is the same. Maybe this is to encourage new players into 0.0 that they keep the ctrl+q "tool"?
I am still sure this advice is welcome for many, altho they might not reply here for fear of being abused/flamed.

Unfortuantly that would create a bit of a problem because when the server crashes or cuts out (quite common) it'd create a lot of petitions.
Petition them, its an exploit. Do it enough times and they'll get banned.

The OP is 100% lame... why should new players travel in 0.0 with slow expensive ships ?
1) Autopilot brings you to bottleneck / high traffic systems , so it's better to follow a different path.
2) Plates increase your mass , slowing you down ; extenders increase your sig radius making you easier to lock.
3) Warp to 0 doesn't work when a gate is bubbled ! When spotting people in local , it's usually better to warp to 100km first to see if there is a gate camp.
4) Lame. The cloak time is enough to have the gate campers distracted if someone else jumps/warps in.
5) Not going to touch that one. I never logged out of stations / highsec anyway.

Invulnerability is overrated anyway. But these pages is testament to why this is a troll post matey. Between those who had to point to their e-peens to those who are ready to burst a bubble from their necks in frustration over a game... a true testament to the bile and slime that makes this community what it is. And you knew that the freaks would come out flying their best colors for the show.
Trolling is not limited to just flaming someone... you baited the thread and they came a running.
(I've never logged to avoid a butt spanking btw. Still a troll thread.)

Ctrl-Q'ing ****es me off (I've never done it and have no intention to), but I disagree with Lanfear's Bane in the odea that if you get killed in 0.0 you screwed something up. If you've ever Warped to 0 on a gate only to have it tell you that the (empty) system you're going to has a traffic advisory and that you should try again later, you know that you're basically screwed. And through no fault of your own, but rather because the system you're going to happens to be load balanced on the same node as Jita or Motsu and there's absolutely no way of knowing it before you try to jump.
Stupid traffic control. Yeah, great, I'm #1 in the queue to jump. Thanks a lot, ass-holes.

Lies =P. That won't always work. Last night we caught a buzzard flying through 0.0 w/out a cov ops cloak just warping to 0 at each gate. Fast locker caught him before ship could warp off. Often people get away but not guaranteed. Especially if you're caught warping into a bubble.

This is a PvP-game, non-consensual PvP is something you can expect in low-sec and 0.0. If you don't like it, don't go to there.
I PvP for fun, and for NBSI.
If I kill someone who is weaker or has less skillpoints than me, he just got a crash-course in what not to do while being in insecure space.
This is my main Genious. Guess i could do the NBLO (Not Blue Log Out) And you can sit and wonder when im going to log back in I dont mind losing a ship to a superior player....but a gank or a gate camp...or some people trying to deny me access to open space simply because they can is stupid.

Originally by: Ilor Prophet Yeah, great, I'm #1 in the queue to jump. Thanks a lot, a-holes.
I heard that !
The other day I lost a hauler on a trip down the pipe. It was going smooth enough... I watched local and the map and made sure my path was clear (mostly)
I was almost home when 1 pirate was closing. I was on the gate so I figured I was free.... but then I got the stupid traffic advisory... I was #1 in the queue and I frantically hit the jump icon untill finally it let me in. But not before I was down to my last 10% of structure. On the other side I warped to a planet to regen shields. I probably would have lived had I hit CTRL-Q at this point... but really thats beneath me. The pirate followed... and found me... and podded me. Thats the way it goes sometimes. But CTRL-Q is not the answer... Sure would be nice if the 0.0 gates didnt grief me though !

The mere fact that you didn't have scouts and know we were coming or didn't watch local and see us there, makes players 'superior', you don't wanna learn how the game works?

My uber corp since you asked , what I said was advice that should be given to newer players , i can hardly call myself a new player and i can handle 0.0 without the need for ctrl+Q , still - joining a large or at least a corp that knows what they are doing in 0.0 is the best way to go .

4. if there is someone on the gate waiting for you, QUICKLY CLOSE YOU CLIENT (CTRL+Q) BEFORE YOU UNCLOAK !! 5. log back after 15-30 min, if there are still bad people in local quickly log again (!!!) before you exit warp and you will be perfectly fine
100% Lame and 100% True
Exactly.

This thread is funny. Actually just having a scout would save you the the bother of having to log off for probably hours.

yep because sitting in the previous system now that the new recon probe lunchers are seeded doesnt mean you will have to log anyway, nope

Edited by: Queen Hades on 11/12/2006 14:40:51 It is funny.
1. The "omg uber leet pvp" people cry a river here about how lame carebears are because they stay in empire space.
2. When people want to come to "where the real game is" they get harrassed by gate camps and wtfpwned.
3. As soon as people try to survive the camps (which are situations you simply can't survive by no means) by using the one and only tool they have, the selfrighteous people from 1. and 2. cry again... this time it's "exploit! lame!".
Everyone with half a brain can tell the inherent lack of logic in this. 
Alliance people, it's up to you to decide - you can't have 1. and 2. at the same time. Stop camping gates or stop whining. Everything else is like selfdestructing your ship and then complaining about losing the money.

Edited by: J''Jenksie on 12/12/2006 12:31:11 lol, i remember when some guy tried it on me. I locked & "scrammed" him in a belt, was about a min b4 he popped, but during the battle, the named popped out of local. But his ship stayed an kept firing at me. not even 10 secs later he logs back in, just in time for him to see his ship go booooom!. Locked his pod got it down so that 1 more missile would make his pod go pop, then ransomed   
EDIT - b4 you saying anything, he was a few month old char, thats why i ransomed his pod, not his ship, he was only flying a cruiser, easily replaced, but it works an i got a few mil

Originally by: Twilight Moon Also, can't they apply a 24 hour ban on anyone who exceeds 5 CTRL+Q's per day?
I really hope this is a joke... what if someone's got connection problems (you can't check if it was a CTRL+Q, system crash, forcing EVE client to shutdown via Event Manager or a disconnect).
What if someone's being "called" away from his computer, and just CTRL+Q when in space (but NOT under attack). Dumbest idea ever... well, OK... not 'ever', but a really dumb one still. ------- Daar

Originally by: Highway Scout And why is it trolling? Do you know a better way to survive in 0.0 in a battleship? Serious question.
How about using the damn map to spot gateblobs?
what's a gateblob and how do you see it on the map? thanx --

Even better - run in windowed mode so u can troll the forums whilst flying semi-afk and just close the EVE window rather than going through the wrist-wringing exercise that is ctrl-Q.

We make it a special point to gank, grief, call primary, and generally make life miserable for those who use log-off tactics.

You're talking about Rod Blaine's guide probably. Rod Blaine's Guide for the 0.0 impaired
As for the usual topic and arguments, the people who are both willing and able to fight for their space already thrive in 0.0, in groups great and small (go check Curse sometime). If the average "I refuse to pvp but I like to mine" person doesn't get access, it's working as intended.

polite answer. since the complaint was people don't know how to use their maps to see gateblobs, I figured I'd ask what's a gateblob and how do you use your map to see one.

Originally by: Lanfear's Bane I have never met a logger. But I have met lots and lots of people that post in local after they found themselves in their pods claiming to have had lag and a disconnect just slightly after I warp jammed them.
Must me coincidence.
Lanfear's Bane.
Lol. I met a logger once. I scrambled him, saw his mug disappear from local and to my surprise his Brutix just sat there  I always thought that a boat would disappear after 2 minutes or so... yes, it took me longer to destroy it  I was flying a paperplane with a scrambler versus a miner-fitted brutix. After a nice 4 minute pounding I blew it up.
Nice to know that logging doesnt help save a ship if the target was scrambled before the log. The loot was utter crap tho...

I got a Mega a few nights ago. Sad, sad story. He never logged in again the whole time I was waiting off my flag. I guess he was just resigned to his dhoom.
