So did that GM that they said they'd appoint to investigate GM corruption actually do anything except post pretty words? Because the situation in Eve really is as bad as ever, the GMs keep cheating, bending rules and handing freebies to their 50m skill point circle of friends and nobody seems to care or even investigate it.

Originally by: x bunny Isn't ramming a valid and known naval tactic ? Why it should be considered an exploit ?
Last time I checked, Naval ships didn't bypass force fields to ram other ships.
Bowling drops you in the POS shields, at warp-exiting speeds, casuing you to ram the hell out of stuff, then the game goes 'oh ****, you shouldn't be here', and flings you couple hundred KM away.

I thought i just bring this because of the topicality:
Quote: Greetings,
The so-called "POS Bowling" will from here on be considered an exploit. While it is true that this is not verifiable after the fact by way of logs, GMs are able to go ingame and monitor situations at will, and do it without anyone knowing. If we catch anyone doing this we will take the appropriate action against them. We therefore urge Titan and Mothership pilots to refrain from using their ships to bump ships out of POS forcefields, or risk facing punitive measures for exploiting.

I didn't read all the thread but it seems to me if CCP just made sheilds like a warp bubble which stops you before you enter everything would be ok.

I'm glad CCP took a stance on this, though im sure some people will complain over this as another one of their "creative" aka "haxploitive" "tactics" has been nerfed.

"qft"
or rather, "wish i had a mothership while this was still legit" imagine if SNIGG were friends of the devs. do you think EVE would be different if their creators were always being fed negative feedback about capital ships and positive feedback about solo piracy?

Originally by: Jotan Veer To be perfectly honest, I don't mind this as 100s of frigates under the forcefield can make quite a bit of lag at POS fights. Bowling can solve that I guess.
I'm guilty for leaving like 5 ships (BS, Cruiser, dictor, ceptors) at a POS during the ASCN war to avoid docking and then not storing them in a maint. array so I won't judge people who do the same.
I hope your alliance doesn't avarage five ships per player at a pos, but at least they were expensive! It's a well documented fact that less costly ships cause proportionatly more lag. _______

So which dev did you msn to figure out how to originally bowl a POS, I'm sure you didn't discover it by accident. Which dev did you msn to get them to make it an exploit, now that we are on board with a titan. Try to cheat less hard next time numbnuts.

Awww the ickle goonie is throwing a fit because he's losing to Bob.
Shame that. You should look closer to home to realise why you're losing instead of screaming "DEV HAX" every time Bob rips you a new *******.

He has a point, guys. I think our (goonswarm's) biggest problem is that, obviously, God is on FIX's side and nobody elses.
I mean, we're just too busy to pray over our stations.

In our minds, the POS bubble is a barrier that is supposed to be impossible to cross. What really happens in the game though is that anything on the inside of it that shouldn't be there is hit with an acceleration vector towards the edge proportional to the distance from the edge.
What the game really should do instead is relocate intruders to the outside edge with velocity zero, and, this is important, have this done BEFORE the collision detection/bump phase. No more bowling, no need to have GMs watch, no drama, problem solved. Also then a ship hitting the bubble will appear to have lag, which we are used to and don't mind, rather than the trampoline effect they have now.

Well, that ends this thread.
So for weeks they say POS Bowling is legitimate, then only one day after their latest Public Relations disaster they suddenly change their minds and make it an exploit? My my...what interesting timing.

No actually:
BoB gets a Titan BoB discovers POS bowling POS bowling get declared exploit'ish (One GM's call) BoB stops POS bowling AAA gets Titan, POS bowling is suddenly OK (Another GM's call) AAA, BoB POS bowl to thier hearts content with that info in mind Goons leads the Colaition in a forum war on Titan's as a concept Lead GM get some balls and declares POS bowling an exploit
Get your facts straight.

Others did it first, but they got petitioned and a GM told them to stop Then BoB did it, they got petitioned too but a GM said it was ok.
Par for the course, obviously.
