It's cause Aye Pod knows as soon as myself or someone else starts supporting something, it typically becomes changed.

I like it.

Are we talking a persons individual actions or something that occurs in a game.

If you saw I died on Nova does this mean you can show up at my work tomorrow?

Ville, after killing Paw 6 or 7 times on Nova, what possible extra info from the co ords is available from your analysis that is not available from your TS or simply looking at what island he died on?  His death co ords have had less impact than his patterns. But hey, I recognize sarcasm. Using it in an attempt to prove how OP the death co ords are actually has the opposite effect.

Ok Cassius. Im going to write slow so its easy to understand. Ok. Refute this if YOU can.

Here's a story. Ill title it "Merkle"

I'm a KB *** whose stats there move my epeen. I see that newer player *** Johnson has been killed in the at the same coords on more than one occasion at 0100 server time. I decide to gank his *** because I can. His fault right for going back again and again and being predictable. Well what if he is trying to grind missions and the only time he gets to play is when he gets off work for an hour. Before the coords on the KM it would have taken a few days of scouting and stalking him to know where and when he would be there but like Ville pointed out now I can get that kind of info outside the game and now only have alarm clock it for an easy kill.

The END. (This story is fictional and any similarities to real players isnt merely a coincidence )

Now tell me Cass in all of your wisdom. Should anyone have the ability to find out that information without having to play the game?  We both know this wont affect the vets as much as the newer players. Specific intel that can be gathered without having to play the game should not be allowed. Why do we need to have this discussion again in 6 months to a year when it is being abused. By then the damage will already be done.

I'm new to programming but I think we can still have the same hotspot features on the kill boards withOUT having to include the exact specifics on who was killed where.

Im not going to refute your points because they are all valid. The potential benefits you point out dont outweigh the potential of abuse this information brings with it.

We BOTH know the politics involved and the nature of what gets things changed in this game. Just because YOU dont have any political motivations in this discussion doesnt mean your corpmates dont either.

If you are getting killed on the same location at the same time more than once you are doing it wrong with or without the API data. Once you have been found farming and killed by someone already, knows you have been there anyways, even without any out of game data. The smart thing to do is change location, being predictable will get you killed.

I will wave past the troll and post anyway.

Of course we are talking about in game actions. They have nothing to do with your work or the real world locations. But because this pertains to virtual locations doesn't mean we need to throw the player/individual options out the window.

Just to get things straight a little bit, the game is up against things like this:

(look at for a while, see what I mean)

Or:

I mean, EVE's 3rd-party developers don't *** around, at all. We barely got an API, EVE's already got a read/write API (CREST).

Honestly, I'm sorry for your three Noralgis plants, but think a bit bigger than that.

Sounds like youre in the wrong game.

Yeah, stuff like your skills, personal finances, assets, contacts, etc. But, chances are your corporation already has their API key submitted to one of the killfeeds. And if not, your attacker has. And that shows everything. You can't choose what to hide, no matter how stupid the loss is (which usually explains an unwillingness to share).

Where I'm getting at is that EVE has already established an excellent modus operandi, so why bother trying to satisfy a few concerned players and get the whole game dragged around a few years behind the trend. Peak gameplay is promoted with killboards and videos.

I'm arguing on the premise that EVE's system name is equivalent to Perpetuum's coordinates (like constellations are equivalent to islands). It's the smallest discernible piece of information required to find out about someone's habits and patterns through a 3rd-party source. Either you lock down gates or paths to teleports, but if you know someone has been somewhere or is going to be somewhere, that's the minimum amount of information you'll need.

As a though experiment, take away the game-specific scales and mechanics; it'll come down to the same thing.

C'mon Doek. You KNOW that an EVE system isnt the same as having the exact coords in perp.

Trusting players not to abuse something doesn't sound like a good idea.

Cut the coordinates please.
