So if I want to sit in a system cloaked which denies a targeted Corporation or player freedom of movement as a tactic, how long can i do that for before CCP considers it griefing? |

It's not griefing, it's them being paranoid and allowing the possibility of someone being vaguely in the vicinity to intimidate them.
How can not doing something be considered griefing? It's not doing anything.
And you can drop the hypothetical talk, we all know that you're the one that has been intimidated by someone being in the system with you (despite them doing absolutely nothing) and are posting on here with a NPC alt to whine about it. |

You can do it forever and it will not be griefing, it's a valid tactic.
They will figure you out in a couple of days though, if they have any brains. |

That depends. How long until the OP is considered trolling?
If you're wanting to do it to someone, enjoy wasting an entire account on the project. Hope it pays well.
If you're a victim...learn to ignore afk cloakers. It's time to put an end to CCP's war on piracy. Fight your own battles and stop asking CCP to do it for you. |

So you're literally afraid of someone who isn't there? I hear using tactics and forethought really helps in taking care of any problems that might arise with a cloaker making himself at home. |

Well, we are running on 9 years of Eve. So maybe 10 years?
You're not denied freedom of movement because someone is cloaked somewhere. You are denied freedom of movement because you're scared of a shadow. |

Personally, I never understood the "tactic" of sitting around doing NOTHING in a game you pay money for. Never made any sense to me.
But whatever. You want to sit around claoked doing nothing, knock yourself out. I'll be out having fun or making iskies. |

How does sitting cloaked stop someone from moving? |

The best part is sitting in null cloaked on a 3 month old character, knowing that you've just force-docked a dozen Hulks and stopped all the ratting. Stoic Assembly Lines is a herd of rabid storks looking for new and experienced players. We mine, build things, and shoot people. We are growing fast and preparing to open low-sec operations.

CCP, we left highsec 'cause of war decs, suicide gankers, ninja salvagers, corps that swoop in and take our belts, etc;
And then we left lowsec 'cause we couldn't keep anything out, and the harder we tried the more we attracted these terrifying people with 1bil clones and four utility alts and titan links;
And we looked in a wormhole and saw uncountable invisible sharks and oh God there's one behind you right now;
And by this point we knew that NPC null also wouldn't work, so --
We're in null now, and we finally thought we'd found a safe, private, high-security home, with no losses or scary people ever.

FIX YOUR BROKEN GAME, CCP. I'll admit... I chuckled. +1 for you sir. Change isn't bad... but it isn't always good. Somtimes, the oldest and most simple of things can be the most elegant and effective. |

There should be a new forum rule: you can only complain about AFK cloakies if you also complain about T2 BPOs. |

Better idea, complaining about either of them gets you a 2-week temp forum ban. |

Same applies in w-space. A solo player, with a collection of probes, can seriously messup a large force, just by being there and occasionally dropping some combat probes where they can see them.
Some hi-end system groups will just ignore, confident that they have enough gank to cover whatever might be out there, but most groups find it threatening and troubling ... and it seriously messes with their activities and enjoyment.
We can build and sell pretty much every ship. Check my bio for details. Our pirate epic arc completion packages really are very good: https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=12973&find=unread |

I did something like this too and it was quite funny.
I bought a whole sell order worth of t1 combat probes from a nearby npc 0.0 station(when I mean a whole sell order, I mean every single combat probe sold in the station) and loaded them in my alt's tengu(covops, nullifier)
and camped a system while dropping combat probes and going afk. I had so many probes stock I didn't even bother retrieving them after an hour.
I would usually work on my computer most of the time during the day so I would just alt tab every hour or so to see if the probes expire and launch more if they did.
It was so satisfying to see D-scan clear of ratting ships for days, until I had to use my alt for something else. |

Confirming that this is what Low-Sec is actually like. Free hugs for Amarr holders. No, really. |
