With potentially several hundred WT's you really do need the locator to actually return a fail result for an offline player... otherwise you're back to wasting a couple million per hour chasing ghosts.

Used to?
My employers should count themselves supremely lucky that pretty much everywhere here is on camera 24/7

Oi. I have no axe to grind here, but I gotta say that you ladies need to take your **** measuring contest elsewhere.
I'm still mourning the loss of my ability to effectively clownstomp victims 30 jumps from home here.
All this posturing is disrupting my train of thought as I try to conceive new ways to chase after the space bunnies who have dropped off my radar.
You are all pretty.
All men would die to lay with you.
Be happy, go murder people.
It's a thing.
Sorry if I'm standin on your e-peen... but it's a Devils kinda thing.
PS: Mortlake, you actually BURIED it? I usually just would pick either a Wal-Mart to drop trow in and drag my arse across the floor in, or cover my leavings with leaves on a nice and busy hiking trail so that some hipster would likely come to understand how I really felt about them when they had to clean it out of their sandals.

I know you put quite a bit of thought into that, but it seems like it's far more complicated than it needs to be.
You're talking about introducing a whole new set of interdependencies and mechanics, where simply fixing locator agents to return an 'outside of sphere of influence' result for offline characters achieves the same result but with less whistles and bells.
Generally not a super idea to make something more complicated than it has to be, as each added new shiny thing is another thing to go wrong during implementation.
Just my two ISK

Also, it's not like locator agents are getting much play since the change... biased, of course.
I'm not keen on playing locator lottery in search of targets that may or may not be online, so I don't give them my money anymore. Especially not if I'm trying to sift through a couple hundred potential results for a winner.
To me, at least, they are now a nearly useless waste of time and ISK.

A thought occurs, perhaps not a great one.
But what about the idea of 'Watchlist Agents'?
You pay them and they put a specific character on your list for a fee (recurring of course)... while you're paid up they show up. While it might not be of super great help to mercs who have hundreds of targets it would still resemble lube in a manner of speaking, as each member could shoulder a share of the burden... It strikes me as being more useful to wormholers on an individual level, and they seem to actually have gotten screwed at least as hard as we have, if not moreso by this change.
I'm a tad durnk atm, so like I said it's possibly not a great idea.

It was a sweeping, ill considered and unnecessary change to a long standing mechanic that ultimately massively negatively impacted not only my play style but that of others too.
No. You can't have my stuff. It's being buried with me.
Mort and Melvin signing off.
*shutdown jingle*
Pretty much in the same boat here.
Once the timers run down for my subs I'll retire to my crypt and take a very long nap amidst my treasure piles.
Then simply dream until the world changes for the better, or forever, whichever comes first.

So much scorn over an area of operations.
Did you get your mission battleship badtocuhed by them or something?
Devil's choose to operate in high sec. What's wrong with that?
Is this one of those low/null/wh snobbery things again?
