Maybe we should try to convey the topic as though they had never played the game before

i used to play it a little, a few years back. After playing a while, I found aiming towards a cloacking missile ship. I had ~5 mil skillpoints when I stopped playing. I never understood however how the cloacking actually worked. And can a skillful player snipe ships and live to tell a tale? Haven´t heard much of single ship being an attack force.
I do care for the big big battles but sniping attracts me more. At least right now and even when back when I was playing. I had a plan n stuff to disable warp drive for them n stuff.. I was getting all excited getting my skill points high enough to go rikimaru on their ass. But then one month I lacked subscription fee and I kinda lost momentum there.

You can't shoot people while cloaked. You have to uncloak, lock and then shoot. Depending on the type of cloaking device you're using there is a delay (Tech II has a lower wait time, etc) between when you can uncloak and lock.
Covert ops frigates can warp while cloaked but they have to use a special cloaking device that only they can fit.

I made quite a mean joke at your expense. In addition, I'm not sure anyone got it but me. Things like this are indications that I am a terrible person.

Pulled off another wh heist tonight. I managed to get my linkalt into a c4 wh corp that was recruiting out of the public recruitment chanel. The ceo took my full api and let me right in, and the things began to get kinda surreal.
He told me that he takes full api to prevent corp thieves from entering the corp. Then he gives me config starbase equipment roles so i can use allthe ship maintainence arrays and nearly all the corp hanger arry tabs. He then logs off once hes given me to wh location to get in leaving me as the only person in corp online. I don't even....ok fine I'll just take everything.
I immediately recruited Sugar Kyle to come help me, and attempted to get Sard and Titus as well (they were in on the last major wh heist) but they declined in favor of playing station games with a megathron. So my linkalt and 2 of sugars characters quickly went to work. We got 2 fully laden orcas, one of which was faction fit, out of the hole as well as a loki and a tengu. Then things took a turn for the worse as a sabre jumped into the c4 with us and bubbled our pods.
Using a bit of quick thinking I managed to convince the sabre and his friends to hold sugar as a hostage while I brought out an orca for them. This somehow worked and I managed to recruit our newfound friends to assist in stealing everything from the c4. After a bit of fiddling with the pos itself i eventually gave up and just yanked the fuel, ejected all the ships and reset the forcefield password. Within moments we had a fleet of people running back and forth boarding ships, grabbing loot and taking it out of the wormhole. It was beautiful.
Total haul was around 5b for myself, Sugar managed around 4b, and the c3 corp that interrupted us made off with everything else which amounted to an orca, 2 tengus, a bunch of random ships as well as whatever was in the corporate hanger array tabs i couldnt access and random cap components in the capital hanger array that were eventually going to be a thanatos for the c4 corp.
I spent only maybe 2-3 hours in the corp total before it had been fully ransacked. Still have no idea how everything worked out so smoothly but I guess I just got absurdly lucky with idiot ceos giving everyone roles and people who will actually trust you enough to not instantly kill your pod.

While leaving me hostage with them.

That's how teamwork works.

They were bad and lost point on me for almost half a minute with the bubble down. I stayed anyway because I am a wonderful person and stay gifted when I am given.
Hullo Firebolt.
