Jesus. I'm out of this conversation. Some people just can't take part in civilised discussions.

Take into the account chances of survival in a capital combat of lighter and heavier capitals. Where is that big slow battleship?

The same as snub resupplying on the nearest base at longer than 10k range. Not against the rules, and not the best behavior.

You jumped out of a system you weren't even supposed to be in in the first place after refusing to deal with the consequences of your actions, and then mocked him in local while you jumped away.
I'd be pretty pissed too.

Thank you for contributing to balance discussions in that regard.

Jumpdrives existed back in Sol, so why shouldn't they exist in Sirius?
Just make EMP Cruise Disruptors, which would inRP literally shut down all Cloaking Power and Jumpdrive Powering up, in game it would just disrupt you from Jumping or Cloaking, but this would be an additional Cruise Disruptor. I'd say use the word "EMP" in here and put it inside the description of what it realy is meant for.

B.id understand a zoner, but not a KU bs
C. Running away from a fight and escaping is better than "well better use my JD."

Yet those two things are connected. In serious combat, JDs is often the only way for a BS to survive, while smaller vessels have more chances, and often they don't deal less damage over their lifetime. I don't mind JD disruptors in a balanced and thought over way, and I would definitely welcome revision of BSs in general, but as it is now, and as it has been for years already, JD escape is a reasonable alternative to death. It doesn't mean that it should be used to constantly jump back into the fight, but frankly it's used so seldomly. But again, noone forbids constant resupplying of capitals and snubs, so it all about player behavior, not excessive nerfs or rules.

Or you can delete them and end toxic rp and gameplay altogether on that front.

The sad part of the story is that he's even proud of being the bad example he is.
