We'll see what Von 1 has to say about that.

As for realism, I think I simply want consistency. If the site is in space, it should have a signature. I understand that they now despawn even with ships in them, to prevent abuses, but I don't see why the signature should disappear with any trigger other than the site itself disappearing.

pj, I see you want some sort of scientifical type consistency in your space game. "Realism". Well, me too, but... EVE. I think I was here slightly before the other Von so you can call me 1.

I think it was a fix for people keeping sites somewhere alive long after they were supposed to despawn (by not leaving) and thus preventing new ones from spawning.
Not sure tho.

Culture on Tiger Ears. Who'd'a thunk it?

That makes sense of when the sites disappear, although I can't quite fathom the why of it. If there are structures, there is a site. It seems more functional to me if the signature disappeared when the site disappeared. But what do I know?

Thanks, Von 1. Or are you 2?

Site signatures disappear before the site content does. I have tested it in highsec radar sites. As soon as you successfully codebreak the first can, the site is no longer scannable. That was not the case before Retribution; then, sites were scannable until (a) they'd been "completed" according to whatever trigger they had (probably the same thing as now), and (b) they'd been empty of all players for a minute or two. Not sure when it changed, but yeah, there it is. This is also true of anoms -- they cease being scannable when you kill some triggering ship, which for sleepers is always one of the third wave. I assume that is true generally, not just in wspace, but as I have not run any non-wspace anoms in a while I don't know.

I've heard such stories, and they are generally entertaining. The concerns are being warped somewhere you shouldn't be, or ships you don't want being warped on top of you. As I invariably go off-line in a covert ship in a safe spot, it was highly unlikely that someone was already there and ready to warp me elsewhere. That means the risk was having ships warped on top of me, hence why I made sure my ship was moving. I was confident I wasn't in trouble, and mostly curious as to why I was getting the invitation. It was probably just a mis-click by someone.
