If they they are not moving or moving while crouched they should be cloaked.

I thought they had this already, called reduced scan profile. And I believe you can reduce that even further with skill called profile dampening. |

I'm talking about a protection from sight, not scan profile.
Here is a video of what it should look like: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iWfmRao4FbI
It's not complete invisibility.

And what's the difference? "Seeing" is a sensory information processed in the brain. |

You can be scanned at 100 meters, but if you are cloacked it's more difficult to spot you.

Being scanned reveals you. What you are effectively suggesting is that one class should have ability to cancel a successful scan after they were scanned. No, you cannot nullify a scan that was already successful. |

Yes, you are right, but try to merge low profile signature + passive cloak.
I know there is a scout somewhere, because i have margin of error msg, but i still have to find him.
There is the advantage a scout can have by a passive cloaking device, built in his suit.

He's talking about "actual" cloaking as in you can't physically be seen.
Anyways, CCP already talked about this in their March 2013 Dev Blog titled Equipment is Your Friend mentioning the cloaking equipment they have planned for us.
Yes, that's right. It's an equipment item.
Quote:
The second item is a Cloaking Field. This sneaky bit of kit will not only make you (almost) invisible to other combatants, it will also blind turret AI targeting systems. It isnGÇÖt perfect invisibility, scanners will still pick you up if you havenGÇÖt masked your signal well enough, motion will disrupt the field to some extent and weapon fire will cause the field to shut down. This means it will take some skill to use to its maximum potential. This item is going to be a real game changer, particularly for Scout dropsuits which have been screaming out for stealth gear.
Please note specific traits:
1. Turret AI won't be able to see you.
2. Scanners can still pick you up if your profile dampening is not good enough.
3. The faster your move, the more visible you become.
4. Using a weapon will cause your cloak to deactivate.
OK, CCP. When are knives finally going to be improved?

Talking about op... Scouts will get a cloaking device, but I can assure you it won't be built in. |

Been saying this for a while. About time someone started repeating it. Doesn't have exactly eliminate the need for a cloaking device, just needs to be something extra to make scouts overall better at cloaking than other suits.
I tried to put a level into Amarr Commando once, but got a server notification saying "Why?"

This is where we would look to EVE, and more specifically, the Recom ships. They have something like a 50% to 100% reduction in CPU costs for cloaks. Slap that on a scout suit :D
People ask me, "Why do you fight?" I reply. "Why do you not?"
