I do not believe that this is a broken mechanic.
If you are fighting on a station, a logistics ship takes an entire 60 seconds to come back out of the station at minimum after being forced to dock. When he undocks, you know exactly where he will be, and he has to either wait out his session timer (a further 30 seconds) or brave your damage right on top of him when he becomes lockable right away. If he wants to come out in a fighting ship after gaining your aggro, that's a full 90 seconds.
If you are fighting on a gate, you can force a logistics ship through the gate into the arms of anyone waiting on the other side. If they want to come back, they will not only take 60 seconds minimum to do so, but they will be off the gate and thus able to be tackled on their return.
I would support the change under ONE condition: friendly assists must not always give you a 60 second gate/dock timer. There should only be a 60 second gate/dock timer if an assisting action makes you aggressed to someone new (such as a neutral logistics becoming blinky to the assistee's war targets). Thus, war target logistics should be able to remote rep corp or alliance mates all they want and jump at any time. And thus, if a neutral logistics began repping someone at war, they would gain a 60 second gate/dock timer at the first rep cycle, but after 60 seconds they would be free to dock or jump at will, even if they were still repping.
tl;dr The current mechanic is OK; A change would be ok too as long as repping does not always prevent you from jumping/docking. |

Mhm... interesting... alliance coalitions don't exist, right? And this would in no way affect 0.0 warfare, right? Not supported. |

While i support it, I didn't check the box because I think that by making it an aggressive act you impair mission runners, since I don't think there will be a way ccp can recognize whether they are repping you while being attacked by an npc or a player.

If there is one thing that I hate beyond measure, it is when a neutral remote reps someone, resulting in me losing the fight.
The least that could happen is if I were allowed to kill the neutral remote repairer.

Remote Repping is no offensiv or aggressiv action so why should it get aggro timer thats like saying a commandship pilot whos just there to give bonus to fleet and does not enter the fight must get aggro timer as well.
Plain stupid -> not supported. |

I too would like to see this "problem" fixed, but on the other hand, i'm using my logistics purely when i get blobed. So before u implement something like that, fix blobs.
Also, i heard falcons are still good tools against logistics.. |

U are getting it wrong. RRer should get same aggression timers as RRed. Example: Player A Shoots player B. Player C reps player A. Player A cannot dock until it stops shooting + 1 minute. In that second, that player C repped player A, he gets same agression timer. If he did one cycle of repping, that mean 1 minute of no docking/jumping. If he is still repping that means no docking/jumping until he is repping player that has 1minute docking/jumping session timer. If player C reps Player B, and player B didnt shoot back, then Player C doenst get any timers.. |

Anyone who's not supporting this topic is either pussies in PVP that are way to scared to PVP without 4368048765497 neutral RR alts behind your ass that can just instadock if it doesn't go your way.
When someone starts a war that are between 2 corps / alliances, then that war is ONLY between them and no one else.
But if some neutral RR alts want to help some of those 2 corps'es / alliances, then that neutral RR alts is going in between those 2 corps'es / alliances and are going into their business / war and need to get punished for it.
Simply because the war between the 2 corps / alliances is something that the neutral RR alt shouldn't have anything to do with because he's not a part of those 2 corps'es / alliances.
So this topic is 100% supported.
EDIT: The RR mechanics doesn't really need to be changed in 0.0 space though. Because as things are there when it's about RRing, it's pretty good as it is now.
Neutral RR alts in empire with no risks is the real problem here. |

Not supported; it's bad enough flying logis already, getting aggro for repping too would just be plain retarted. If neutral alts upset you stop camping Jita and go to NPC 0.0 or something, and camp stations there instead. |

Having had to deal with this a few times, I have my own opinions. This should have never been a "reality". It's risk is minimal ("OH GOD IT'S TARGETING ME" /DOCKDOCKDOCKDOCKDOCKDOCK) with the reward being extremely high ("LOL LOOK AT MY 6K SHIELD TANK ON MY SLEIPNIR"). Yeah, it's that dumb, trust me. It's a broken and abused mechanic that I am surprised CCP hasn't completely fixed. If CCP didn't think it was even remotely broken, they would not have bothered adding timers to RR'ers a year or so ago. Originally by: John Caffeine

Yes, because there are absolutely no mercs operating in high sec for 0.0 alliances, obviously. /sarcasmemopandaface There was nothing more painful than getting a contract only to get counter-contracted and have the biggest out of corp RR slugfest you have ever seen. Us> OK GUYS, THEY HAVE 12 OUT OF CORP RR'ERS. DO WE STILL HAVE OUR 5 OUT OF CORP GUARDIANS AND 6 OUT OF CORP OINEROS ON STANDBY? Them> WE'RE UNDOCKING 15 MORE LOGIS MIDFIGHT, LOL GLHF Us> FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU- There is a lot of PvP that happens in highsec. There would be even more fun PvP if CCP could find a way to fix mechanics like docking wars and out of corp RR. Even the large 0.0 alliances have to deal with potential high sec problems due to always being war dec'd by other alliances/mercs. |

Of course you are going to say that, it is the only way your alliance gets kills. There is an easier way than all this baloney to fix this broken mechanic. Repping should not aggress the logistics pilot, jumping through a gate is a valid tactic for us 0.0 pilots if it goes pear shaped. To rep someone in the first place, you have to be in the same fleet, not in fleet, no reps can be given. All members of that fleet acquire the same status as the war target, once they join the fleet they are also war targets. problem solved. |

Personally I think neutral repping should be there with a couple of difference from the current way.
First off, repping an agressed target should incurr an aggression timer... and...
repping an agressed target should incurr a one way personal wardec meaning that anyone in the opposing corp get a week where the repper is free game but the other corp is still as untouchable as before.
With this scenario neutral reppers would still occurr, but after that they would not be safe flying around. It should in effect work as a war dec meaning that during this time the opposing force can kill them as many times as they like.
If the repper reps again during this personal wardec then the wardec is prolonged. The personal wardec is not connected to the original. So if the war ends the very next day the personal wardec is still in affect for a week. |

This is actually how it used to work. Then it got nerfed after apparently enough chinese farmers got sick of getting invited to a fleet and promptly ganked once they arrived at a level 4 mission. I think the preemptive discussions of FW before it was implemented also had something to do with it getting swung at by the nerf bat. |

But this fix should pave the road to more fixes, like cancelling a war without consequences.
example: If I fight someone in RL, I must have an issue with him.
If he wants to end the fight by just stopping and walking away, he has a problem.
Therefor there must be some kind of payment- or ransomproposal to the opposing corp.
Opposing corp would have to concurr or negotiate further in order to resolve the matter, which will
result in less 'empty' wardecs. |
