The purpose of this video is to role play the reason why a fix to the botting/macro use of a charters in Eve online can be solved using existing lore.

This "firmware update" to clone bays for NPC stations due to confirmation of the Kyonoke Plague will allow a fair change to existing game mechanics. If a player is botting or using macros after (recommend after 3 losses) X number of pod and or noob ship losses occur from the same station the clone consciousness would be reset to the original starting location when that charter was created.

This would then require the person owning the charter to fly several jumps to the previous station and cause the owner a period of time were they would not be able to simply just un-dock and continue to stream the un-dock of a station. It is fair to say the owner of that charter could just set a macro to fly back to a system to continue to stream, but that would be a much more complex level of scripts to program, and ultimately be streaming useless content.

If we think of an actual player attempting to leave a station, it is possible that they could continuously be killed. Typically they would be in something other than a Noob ship or a pod. In the instance of attempting to un-dock and get destroyed this rule should only apply to Noob ships or pods. If a player is legitimately attempting to leave a system by the use of a noobship or pod, and continues to be destroyed by resetting the clone home station to the original starter system station could allow the player to safely navigate their way back to their desired destination.

This change would be the most fair approach to mitigate the issue with botting/ macros that are currently being used as simply reporting or hoping an account gets banned doesn't help with the overall issue.

This Video was set as unlisted for the purposes of review from CCP developers for the consideration of this change. However nothing was changed, potentially opening this up to public over the next month while away for work might allow for a change?

The use of any footage is permitted if the developers implement this clone bay fix within Eve Online.
