But they dont see this way to avoid … they want to autopilot their 50b freighter through uedama and want to be 1000% safe

Why do you need 10 minutes. CCP was going to do 3, and the suggestion was being overly generous with 5.

Stopping the hauler with a point was part of the original design. The only thing the module does is put the target into warp without needing to align. If you can keep a point on it, it will stay right there, then warp off as soon as the point drops.

It’s not intended to make life easier for the criminal, wardecced, or flagged. Just people who can’t get aligned.

Odd.

Proposed solution requires being prepared for said attack with escorts properly outfitted.

Aggressors in both cases are using mechanics that keep them safe from retaliation and consequences for their actions without potential for redress by their targets. Weird that the targets are the ones somehow not putting effort into their own safety.

Oh, so you want to just negate it completely.

No. That’s not reasonable.

You want to tackle the hauler with a point, do it.

You could just gank the escort ship though, that would solve your problem.

At least Godwin’s Law holds. Many other discussions have confirmed it way earlier, but 650 odd posts isn’t bad.

Yes, because you have no argument at all.  
Because all you do is trolling.

If you have a correct point, it would be about time you start expressing it without the troll.  
The post where someone says he accept if this module becomes useless is a troll.  
This post

is a strawman even though people already repeated this is completely false.

You just show on this thread you have ZERO argument, only personal attacks and trolls.

What you are doing is just trolling. Again, and again, and again, everytime someone says an activity you do is imbalanced.

You are the waste of the forum.

It’s perfectly possible and reasonable for people to have differing views and not be trolling.

The only troll here is you. It’s you MO in just about every thread where you don’t like what someone’s opinion is. It’s pretty immature.

I don’t think so.

You might not like my my view that just claiming that computing power and game logic are different is not an argument, but that’s the case. It’s a declaration. A perfectly correct one, but it is not an argument of any technical limitation that demonstrates understanding of why the game mechanics are the way they are.

There’s nothing trolling in that. There is no explanation of any technical limit in that statement.

You are just repeating the same false thing, again.

The technical limitation was described a few post above.

Maybe you meant something different to what you wrote, but these are your words.

None of that is an explanation that shows why the mechanics are the way they are. It’s just opinion.

I don’t think you have a clue.

That provides no explanation of why or how this “technical limitation” means the game mechanics around bumping are the way they are. It’s just an opinion and as an opinion it’s fine, but has little value unless it’s validated.

Like for like I guess. However, there isn’t anything to argue against, because your post doesn’t provide any argument to counter.

Indeed. So what ? There is still ZERO argument.

So you don’t understand my point, and instead of asking for clarification you just start nonsense.  
That is exactly what I’ve been describing as troll.

and YET I already made more explanations for this specific part, which you just ignore and keep repeating the same WRONG thing.  
That’s why I say you are the waste of the forum. Just a waste of time trying to discuss with you.
