well that is why hunting a decent target takes effort and that is not a bad thing at all
and let ccp handle the rtm farmers
thats not our job
There is a huge difference between âtakes effortâ and âimpossible against all but the dumbest targetsâ. You canât hunt a target if they decide to dock up as your name appears in local and stay docked until your name disappears. No amount of âeffortâ will change the fact that the minimum time required to launch your attack is longer than the time required to see the name in local and warp out.
and let ccp handle the rtm farmers
Then why do you keep advocating gameplay changes that have a primary effect of buffing RMT farmers?
that is youre opinion not mine
my intention is to give the pve players a break
that in youre eyes that is primairely a boost for rmters is youre opinion
Which they do not need. Competent nullsec PvE players are already making so much ISK that itâs causing undesirable effects on the entire EVE economy. So, if they donât need a break because theyâre already winning at EVE so well that theyâre breaking the game, who else benefits? RMT farmers whose bots depend on local being effective and really want the one tool for attacking local removed, and renter trash whose skill ceiling in EVE is somewhere below the RMT bot.
you know there is something called decency and insulting ppl is not showing much of that
The âNPC Bountiesâ in the following graph is the reason why nullsec PvEâers donât need a break. I thought weâve been over this @boernl.
As many of us have already stated. Itâs fine with nerfing afk cloaking, but it needs to be accompanied with a nerf to local chat. There is literally nothing a roaming gang can do, when krabs dock up as soon as a neutral appears in local.
Things would change. Null bears will be safer.
Everyone knows this. Which is why ccp hasnât nerfed cloaking.
Canât you read?
The thing is, it does not help server performance.
Afk players have a negligible load on the servers.
Some mixture of this perhaps. But honestly im not sure ccp are going to touch it much.
Iâm expecting something a bit ham fisted when the observatory arrays come out similar to the coming wardec changes.
Yeah I know, re reading it didnât really come across with what I was trying to say. Lost in translation.
Stop repeating yourself. What you just described was an exploit, not a mechanic countering another mechanic. If you want to play then stay in front of your monitor and warp around, it will be easy enough to avoid your hunters. If you go AFK then you should be probed down, decloaked and blown up and sent back to highsec for being dumb enough to think you can play the game without being in front of your monitor. Preferably followed by bio-massing your characters and go back to WoW.
Null bears wont be safer. The only thing that will change will be the 5 players that waste there time going AFK in systems wonât be able to go AFK any longer. They will have to do what everyone else have to do, play the game or log out.
Yes they would. Itâs not really up for discussion. everyone knows itâs not going to change without first fixing local.
No it wonât, cloakers can still camp systems. AFK exploiting wonât change that.
There is no AFK-exploit. Just check the exploit-list in the support-page.

I donât even think there is a problem anymore:
In High Sec/Low Sec a clocked ship has just as much right to be there as the person complaining.
In Null if you own the space then put up Cyno Inhibitors and stop whining.
If you donât own the space then the cloaked ship has just as much right to be there as the complainer.
WH people think this whole topic is a joke 
As far as AFK goes, AFK is not illegal in EVE.
Thatâs xcoms main problem.
He thinks people logged in but not playing the game, not doing anything, is somehow a bad thing.
Or at least thatâs his front for wanting a safer null sec.
Only front your showing is the week minded care bear pvp mindset you have. Canât even find kills so you have to stoop to low hanging fruits by using dirty AFK exploits. Null sec have issues but nothing about cloaking nerfs will fix those problems, not even dent them. It will however fix the problem cloaking have.
I donât afk cloak.
I infact joined this ancient argument on the side of the ânerf cloakingâ side. But an old friend explained to me how easy it would be for null bears to live in safety if people couldnât afk cloak thanks to how local works.
Shame he isnât still here. He might explain it to you better than i.
And how will a nerf to cloaking dent the current meta that is used? Cloaked pilots will have to work for there kills? Ohh how awful. So hard to right click and warp to safespot #N. And if you really think null needs AFK cloaking to balance itself out then you seriously have no clue how null sec operates.
