Edited by: Orrin Danestarr on 20/02/2007 22:44:14 Whether or not its a game mechanic, tis still dirty and under handed by any means of the word.
Its a game indeed, even if you lose a capital of a titans stature, it can be replaced.
D2 accepted the loss and moved on. Lets all do the same.

Originally by: Nooey Talk about how the game should be all you like guys. It's a good discussion to have by all means.
The point remains however.
If you do not embrace the current reality of how things are, you will lose a Titan and have nobody to blame but yourself. It is not CCP's fault you refused to act according to the current reality of game mechanics. Acting according to your perception of how the game should be will only end badly for you.
That is the only point I made.
This quote from page one is still the best statement I've read on EVE-O for quite some time.
Why CCP felt it would be a good idea to turn off the visible aggro timer for low-sec I don't know, but anyone beeing agressed by a war-target in high-sec can tell you the aggro timer shows up there. -VS- |

Being on page 7 this probably won't get alot of reads but I'll give it a go anyway.
The greatest comedy of this thread is all the pocket lawyers sounding off about the legal issues and written language violation or non-violations. Probably watching too many law and order episodes or some other popular television drama these days.
Reality check time. Common sense isn't dead. Bottom line, a players asset was removed from the game by other players while he was not logged into the game. Thats not very different from using a spy or a hack to get his account password and logging in while he is asleep and just deleting his account. The end result is the same. Its just some players doing whatever it takes to win. No holds barred, no rules, total war with no respect to personal privacy or even respect for a challenging opponent.
This is the real problem. If you want to blame someone blame CCP. They have provided an environment that is breeding this behavior just as any pub selling alcohol is helping to breed drunk drivers. The steaks have become so high in Eve that players feel justified in doing whatever it takes to win.
Many say you have no choice that its just the way the game has become and to a degree that is true. But you do have a choice. I cancelled both my accounts yesterday. If you don't like the environment offered for gaming then just move on. There are plenty of good games out there that aren't all about back stabbing, fraud or invasion of privacy as acceptable "in-game" tactics for combat.
I'll keep watch and may be back again but CCP gots some cleaning up of the mess they're creating to be done first.

One could argue that BoB found the thermal exhaust port...
While Vader was on the can...
And the turbolasers were being scrubbed...
And the TIE fighters were held up by Smithy, the docking manager...
Actually nm, I haven't a clue what I''m talking about...

lame beyond all belief, if you ask me. is it really neccessary for Titan pilots to not be allowed a life? when something as simple as logging out to do stuff in RL requires the utmost secrecy and security incase there MIGHT be a spy ready to agress you
its a total and utter exploit of game mechanics and it shouldn't be allowed. the logout system was NOT designed to allow this and with a passive targeter/failed ecm jam its practically undetectable.
'within game mechanics' or not, its bad for EVE. if you cant see that you need to step back and look at things for a bit

D2 has already made a statement about this so you should all leave this thread to die.
iirc titan pilot logged at pos. The moment it warped away and came outside the pos shield d2 spy triggered smartbomb and aggroed titan. The titan pilot was already offline and wasnt aware of aggro before someone got hold of him.
It took time before he managed to log back in, maybe due to system lag, or other problems. When he got back in he was already nossed to death (afaik), and had no chance of getting out. End of story.
BoB didnt haxsploit here. They merely took advantage of game mechanics as they are today. And with a portion of luck too. (spy being in right position).
I will not comment on wether game mechanics are flawed or not. Titan is dead and its not due to bad pilot. It was only bad luck and a well executed plan by bob.
This is my opinion and mine alone. Leave this thread to die now plz. It has run its purpose a long time ago. D2 will survive and continue to kick ass

All that point really says is: theres no point flying nice shiny ships that a lot of effort and isk making has gone into, because game mechanics mean you will most likely loose it without even knowing. And therfore unless you exploit these game mechanics you cant achieve anything.. I dont know how you have accepted that yourself

Considering that Nooey gave a step by step guide as to how you could make that loss impossible, I somehow don't think that was his point.

Originally by: Powdder don't kid yourself. while the method used to kill this ship is perfectly within game rules and mechanics its still a wimpy way to go. To somehow make this out to be D2's fault is low, very very low. Right in line to BoB's way of thinking. I hope like hell the rest of the eve community continues to ostracize BoB's actions and and I hope to see yet MORE of the community stand against BoB due to the underhanded way they are playing this game.
