i’d point ya at the main afk cloaker thread but reading through it will just make you stupid, angry, or both. The guys there crying about afk cloakers are showing why renters are trash. here’s a summary: they behave like bots, docking the second someone enters they cry about an evil man of whom they have no idea if he’s actually gonna hot drop anyone they think they’re entitled to farming in null sec in perfect safety they don’t do jack ■■■■ trying to find out if the cloaky camper actually is at the keyboard they make up excuses and tell you whatever they think gets them sympathy they’re all self declared victims they keep moving goalposts to keep the fake discussion active they’re all most likely real money traders ---

Fit some T2 RR dominixes and rat in fleet, it will be less effective but you will loose almost nothing in case of drop. Nobody will drop BOPS on dominixes ready for combat. Guy will loose interest in your system and move elsewhere. ---

Its not broken. Its the only counter to local chat and intel programs. If they “fix cloaky camping” Local chat will be fixed also. Some sort of delay I would guess. ---

If I was the camper, I would definately feel motivated and encouraged to carry on if I knew I was winding you up and causing some financial damage, maybe quiet down your operations, JC out to high sec and carebear for a few days and see if he gets bored and finds somebody else to play with. ---

So players are ‘nerds’ if they’re good at killing you. Get out there and kill him. Have your own cloaky fleet next to a bait ship. Stopping being bad at eve. If you can’t handle ONE guy ruining your solo play on an MMO go and play something else or Shut the hell up. ---

heck no. It was awesome, and, as much damage to us as they did back then and my dislike for them for some out of game stuff that they have done, that was a tactic and it was effective because of our own lack of skill, dedication and dumb people. I don’t think cloaky needs adjustment at all. I think that would be the dumbest thing you could do, as it will completely destroy it. ---

Wondering what kind of sentence that I have typed made you think that I ever thought that it needs fixing??? > [@Ildrara](#): > > > [@Targor\_Avelany](#): > > > > no need to fix no cloaky > > Double negative. So you agree that cloaking needs a counter. Thanks for your input. because if it is this one, I’d say - don’t try to misinterpret my engrish! It makes you boring. ---

We have same campers in all solar systems of our pocket. The indexes ease down. Sometimes they catch some afker/inactive players. We won’t pay that’s sure. What we can do, clear relic/data sites, DED sites. In fact they prevent only ratting in anomalies. That also happened, one of them decloacked randomly and we annihilate him. If they leave at once we have only one solution to protect our pocket, we need a massive 24/7 gatecamp by entrance. ---

LOL… be happy you have not pissed Goons off… you would have 5 cloaky campers in your system 24 hours a day and would actually lose anything of value within minutes of undocking… Just ask GOTG. If you don’t have a proper response fleet and cant handle one guy maybe Null is not the place for your corp… im not trying to talk smack here but seriously… this is eve. If eve players can kill you, they will. If eve players can annoy and harass you to the point your indy comes to a complete standstill they will. In the end the answer is, its EVE, deal with the situation or move. The only other option is join a coalition that actually has an effective response fleet. ---
