Is rather boring.
I know this is not well presented but it just reoccured to me! Been gone from the game for awhile, came back today and find myself enjoying....nothing =/
I know there are ships out there but I have no idea where, how many, what types. If it were ICC I could still enjoy the knowledge that would let me shoot back and try to run before being killed. With Luth you just go in, get alphaed from behind, jump out and watch everyone disappear, pure enjoyment right there!
This is not a flame post at all, just a personal observation, would love to see more ICC players.

It also depends on whether the Kluth player is aggressive. Cautious ones tend to lurk more.

Such a simple solution! All should go to kluth....oh wait....but if that's a solution....and everyone did it....then there'd be noone to compete against. Nope I don't think thats a good idea.
Also please dont spam statements of oh look spacebar mashing....any good pilot knows not to smash the spacebar constantly. You lose your pd up close and waste too much energy firing everything at once with little benefit from pd tickling their armor.
Now as far as it goes vs kluth yea its boring. You need some icc in the mix otherwise its just oh im being tailed *warps away* oh im being tailed again.....*warps away* etc etc...honestly no fun at all.
If theres a mix of icc and kluth on I usually try and fight some icc for fun since you can be tactical and maneuver around fighting them(albeit not as maneuverable as them). Kluth....if your in anything less then a dread 90% of the time the only thing you will see when it comes to them is either a.A parasite on your rear suddenly and then vanishing and reappearing constantly and always hitting your rear...or a big dread coming out of nowhere like a siphon. In either case all you can do is warp away or die if you really think your ship can compete.
Now with icc its fun because even if they jump at you with a dread their not suddenly rear attacking you and vanishing like crazy and you can actually try to fight back fairly well and have fun. It becomes all about tactics. Too bad the little icc combat destroyers seems to be boring though I must say. They do too little damage in combat vs ugto destroyers and even a picket pretty much tears them up. Makes it feel like im stealing candy from a baby when I fight one.

Time to get rid of cloak for the kluth and drop the max speed on all ICC ships. Apparently they are very OP.
sarcasm aside, I actually enjoy fighting kluth as its a good challenge for both sides. In a cruiser against kluth, it turns into a cat and mouse game and a decent cruiser pilot can easily stay ahead of a kluth dread. In a dreadnought/station, the trick is to not let them surprise you and always have an escape route.

Fighting UGTO is boring.
They sit in range of a dictor near a depot and wait till someone attacks them. there can be battle all over the map, some luth vs ai fields of ugto, but the players wont leave the planet. To make it worse some UGTO players then decide to call the other faction kittens for not attacking them, and just yell "boring" a lot...
Yes, remove cloak, reduce icc speed by half, and introduce a 10 second self destruct timer for ugto when near a planet.
Somehow, "not knowing how to play" got mixed up with "being bored"....How did that happen?
