Looking at the player list and using it to your advantage is not metagaming. Get it right, son.

And JDing away because you saw a nomfleet on the player list in 99.

not metagaming.

How is player list watching counted as that.
by your logic JM metagames when they watch the player list for smugglers in Frankfurt and log their "surveyor" to catch them.

or pirates hunting

Or bounty hinters hunting

Or traders trying to avoid pirates.

Or navy players finding pirates.


edit: or literally everyone since on Skype people post where activity is.

Everyone is a "metagamer" gg

If there was a system whereby activity and interactions could still be had without having to rely on the playerlist, then I wouldn't mind that. As it stands disco is not in such a suitable state.
However, that doesn't justify Jump Drives. It's poor gameplay and detrimental to interactions. It also breeds silliness as showcased by Black Widow. It's at least better that people use the player list to create activity than avoid it.

You just said the player list being used is metagaming. So I guess if that's how you interpret it.

im seeing here that the problem isn't jump drives. It is the made up problem that you cannot use the player list.

Lets remove smuggling while your at it and bounty hunting as well as ban pirates that watch the player list to watch who can be coming.
