This bug has been around ever since the CU beta on TC-Gorath. I have reported it over and over and over (...) again in TC and Live issues threads as well as /bug reports in-game and it still hasn't been fixed. I've given up on it, seeing as bug reports are commonly ignored by the devs anyway.

Sometimes you aren't cloaked when you think you are. I've had it happen, just recloak and it usually fixes it.
runs until 3/12/06

It would be great if they could make it to where DOTs could bring you out of cloak. THAT would be a good fix. That way you have more people fighting and less people hiding. Plus you're just making our profession look bad that you have to hide every instant you get even the slightest damage

Travel how?
By shuttle? If someone is able to do that, then they are probably exploiting a bug, since you're not supposed to be able to buy or use a ticket while cloaked (even placing a ticket on a toolbar button doesn't do it; I've tried, and nothing happens).
If by "travel" in your personal ship, how could that possibly be considered exploitng? The only reason "starship terminals" exist is to simplify the game mechanics for equipping and using your own ships. Imagine: you cloak, walk into a starport, go down to where you ship is parked, climb aboard, "set the controls for the heart of the sun" (so-to-speak 
), and take off. At no pointwould you be required to uncloak, e.g., to interfact with a ticket droid or station personnel (by visual means).

BTW: if I seemed snippy in the response, it wasn't directed at you, but at those nits that think travelling in your ship while cloaked is an exploit.

Regardless of all the bugs I think it's extremely ridiculous that every NPC, animal, droid or turret can notice, see, follow, track and shoot us.

hmm right, anything u say. not all jedi hide right away. i will stand and fight until i cant win then cloak. and even if they do hide right away how does that make u look bad? i woul dhave thought it makes u look smart.
