No one like scouting to permit others players to play, no one, as the scout want play too.
 I beg to differ. I enjoy scouting, if I didn't I would not of bothered training for it. What makes it pointless is Local letting the very people I'm looking for know I'm there long before I can even locate their position. If Local is to stay at least make role-specific ships (Any ship capable of fitting a Covert-ops cloak)exempt from appearing in local. I would be happy to lose any/ all damage bonus on these ships as compensation for having a decent shot at fulfilling my proper role.

I agree, I scout for celeste and will also scout for isk:)
The odds on me being here are rather slim evolutionary speaking, yet in the infinite bounds of probability my being here is a certainty. |

While I would prefer to have local removed I can see the problems for a lot of the player base.
But consider current mechanics:
Scout jumps in...loads local..."FC-Scout 22 local 3 reds 19 neutrals".
All that info without having to do anything other than load system. Thats a bit ******-up for a "hardcore" game  . You would think I could just turn my EvE-IFF transponder to the O-F-F position so you would actually have to LOOK for me  .
Yea as a covert ops pilot TBH, i'd like more to do than jump through a gate and look at a list that is magically generated by who? the enemy?

Although i agree with your ideas and points Bellum i think that this will create, a new market for Off-gate instas, and scan spam. Mostly the people who do not have these Off-gate instas/BM's will die and whine (A la WTZ). I don't have a problem with this but apparently CCP will, thats what i think is preventing them from making a such a simple change now. We need to come up with a way to remove local that CCP will actually introduce....

I already have these off gate "instas". They are in my people & places folder under Tactical
