Crying botter spotted.

It's not, they don't earn anything.

And the same phrase can be thrown back at you, if your a botter especially so, if not then of course you shouldn't be rewarded for stopping all operations cause a velator with a cloak is hanging out with you =D

People have defense fleets for a reason.

It's not, they don't earn anything.
Honestly, it baffles me why 0.0 groups don't have a fleet 24/7.

"But that would be boring!"

Then you rat and run plexs! Problem solved. It's a win-win, make money, always defended

If i was a botter i would be banned few days ago.

Oh how I wish CCP got them all.

Also grow a spine.

Yes they do ,in a sense they change behavior of other players via generating false intel while not playing a game.

How do you defend against false intele generation.

Why afk players is rewarded of changing my behavior that suits him while not playing the game ???

Buff bravery and intelligence of ratters.

Not playing the game is already not rewarded. Generating false intel is the only way to combat a broken intel system .

Not playing the game should not be rewarded.

Those two sentences are excluding each other.

You are either not rewarded or you generate false intel

Those two sentences are excluding each other.

You are either not rewarded or you generate false intel , you cant have both.

As for me CCP could even remove local, that would ifx the problem i am describing also.

. Generating false intel is not a reward, and either way, being AFK is unrelated to both.

People reporting him generate the intel. AFK cloakies pose no threat and do nothing, much like people afk in a pos or station.

Of course it is a reward. IF there wouldn't be any, they wouldn't be there in the first place.

Of course it is a reward. IF they wouldn't be any, they wouldn't be there in the first place.

What you are sying is AFK cloakers sits in systems all days because they are not rewarded in any way ?????

[the] threat of AFK cloaker is not an issue in this topic only his influence on behavior of other players while not playing the game.

Yes but if you had basic reading skills you would see that threat of AFK cloaker is not an issue in this topic only his influence on behavior of other players while not playing the game.

Really? Cause I don't help newbs for reward nor do I necessarily fly lolfits for reward.

So you are doing all this stuff to punish your-self ??? Are you a masochist ?

I know, right.

Like getting SP when not logged in.

It's a travesty, I tell you!

Mr Epeen

They generate false intel while not playing the game.

Not playing the game should not be rewarded.

[craven cowardice]

Why afk players is rewarded of changing my behavior that suits him while not playing the game ???

You sir are lacking fundamental logic skill. I never said ratting should be allowed in a complete safety. As for me CCP could even remove local, that would ifx the problem i am describing also.

No, it's not.

The GÇ£rewardGÇ¥ is the ratters deciding to not use their brains and just go into hiding, which is not something given to the AFK cloaker just because he AFK cloaks. The GÇ£rewardGÇ¥ is something the ratters choose and you can't blame the cloaker for their stupidity and general uselessness. They are in full control over whether they want to GÇ£rewardGÇ¥ the cloaker for his (in)activity. More to the point the GÇ£rewardGÇ¥ is not a reward GÇö it's a self-imposed loss for the ratters.

The cloaker is not being rewarded for not playing the game. The generation of false intel is not a reward.

No. I'm saying that they're sitting in systems all day because he hopes the opponent will be a useless idiot who chooses to punish himself. The AFK cloaker does nothing and wins nothing. He's not being rewarded.

It is also a complete non-issue because it is outside of the AFK cloaker's control GÇö it's something the other players choose to do for no particular reason aside from their being incompetent.
