Just go to "Game Play Settings", click AUTO REJECT to Dueling and Chat, that will reduce your social game to a solo game, as it should be.

[@GildiiAuscent]

Ok, but does that also then block fleet invites? Becausr of no, it changes nothing.

[@NTSHMA]

@@GildiiAuscentAuto Reject CHAT will eliminate Fleet Invites, so you must uncheck if you get into a real fleet.

[@GildiiAuscent]

@@NTSHMA Ok, that's some solid advice. Never played with those settings because i do join various fleets etc, good shout! So auto rejecting chat invitations does work.

The ''join fleet'' mechanic can get you into a great deal of trouble anywhere, never mind Jita. I've seen mining fleets invite a stranger and then wonder why a group of gankers suddenly drop on them. If you don't recognize a player NEVER invite them to your fleet. We have a regular attendee in our system which is always busy with miners, he will ask to join or even use his orca to form a ''friendly'' mining fleet. Then his real friends drop in and spoil the day for anyone in a barge. You'd think people would get wise but they fall for it every day. Great video as ever!

Thanks! Yes, fleet mechanic can be used for a lot of malicious applications. Even saw a post on reddit how a guy denied his enemy that got invited to fleet chance to take gate with session change timers. Need to make a video about that as a follow up to this one

I love how resourceful these gankers are. 😅

[@GildiiAuscent]

Yes, for all new mechanics, players figure out a way to screw with others

[@wernfriedhesse1302]

Never seen that before, nice to know this. I'm too careful in jita. Old aitc miss you.

[@ewanarends5512]

I wouldn't even be mad if this happened to me to be honest, it's way too creative

[@justinstephens72]

Been doing this since filaments came out

[@GildiiAuscent]

How often do people take the bait and you yeet them successfully, by the way?

[@khatharrmalkavian3306]

Why pretend that lag has anything to do with this?

[@GildiiAuscent]

I know some people who will spam click around juat to warp off in jita and especially when they lag out, so a fleet invite sent to such person could result in them hitting the yes button. And if you don't, treat it as and extra.

[@khatharrmalkavian3306]

The better version of this is to drag them to Pochven and then just leave.

[@GildiiAuscent]

That is no way to pad your killboard though, and that's what people try to do every single day to show how elite they are.

Ah, a man of salt mining culture

[@GildiiAuscent]

Get more of them so I can expose more :D
