Dear CCP,
You have been actively labeling lots of things exploits in the game? Would you please label stealing wrecks an exploit? It very much should be with current conditions.
People on stations/gate steal loot jump or dock instantly. We have no recourse. It is not freaking fare when you would name all these other things exploits but not stealing loot. If the thief had 1 minute STATION aggro so he cant dock that would make things a bit easier. But people just steal instawarp or steal and insta dock with billions of loot and we cant even shoot them cuz they are docked. Exploit ? yes!
Please do something about this as a lot of people are talking about it in game that this issue needs attention.
You don't want the stupid game mechanic be the reason for negative experience
Let's do this petition style. Readers if you agree just say agree. if not say don't agree. we will count. |

The line between "exploit" and accepted game-play is a blurry one. What you are describing is considered "normal" game play. It's just the way things are...even if it doesnt make any sense or gives aggressors an unfair advantage.
EVE is a thief's world. It favors crime. |

not so much for salvaging. more like taking expensive modules from wrecks. if that's what you call ninja salvaging then yes. but i really think it's 2 different things. salvage away ... no a lot of people care about that. what's in the wreck is more valuable. you spend time planing a pvp kill... you kill a faction fit nightmare and some guy in an ibis has his screen setup to see only wrecks and steals it and warps out or docks with bilions. |

How so? Quote:
People on stations/gate steal loot jump or dock instantly.
So the supposed exploit is really docking, not the theft. Quote:
Exploit ? yes!
Again, how so? What mechanics are not working as they should? |

It's not that mechanics don't work.
So there is no exploit, then. Good. Quote:
Looking at your battleclinic record Tippia I can see how you would not understand the reason for a requested change. One needs decent amount of pvp kills to understand how much money people who make the kills happen lose to loot stealing.
Ok, so it's not a problem either. Double-good. /thread. Btw, you missed the obvious (and much more truthful) swipe: "well, you must be one of them". Trust me, I know exactly how much the pirates lose out on…  And if you want to call on the BC killboards to make any kind of argument, you should post with your main — by your own logic, you have no clue whatsoever about how any of this works. |

I recall there being a cool quote about guns not killing people, blasters especially! Nueterals reppling should indeed become aligned when the rep someone. It is harboring an army during war for example but the tears!! |

"fair" And no. Edit: I'll make a suggestion, tho. How about you leave Jita 4-4 once in a while, and this won't be a problem, mmk? |

Don't stationcamp in Jita then.
This seems to be a good countering force for camping in heavily travelled systems. Now there's a downside to it, like many other things in Eve. |

This is EvE, possession is 10/10ths of the law. First man there to snatch whatever is floating in space wins the prize. That part of this game will not change, petition or no. It's part of CCP's core design.
If it's mods they are stealing, you and your corp can attack them freely for 15 minutes. Track them down, and give em hell.
If you're in low/null, just blast neutral ibis's hanging around (before you create a lucrative wreck). They're either there to ninja steal, or to spy on your fleet and give intel, or they're an unfortunate noob in the wrong place, wrong time. Just blast em. If you're in a fleet big enough to take down Nightmares, you can handle gate guns long enough, or simply have faster tackle to salvage before the ibis can. If not, get a better fleet.
If you're in highsec, and you just blew up a faction fit nightmare, and there's billions in loot, just about any ship could be concordokkened to take out said ibis. I don't care if you're in a battleship yourself - better to throw it away to concord, take out the ibis, and than have a trusted friend or alt grab the loot. You'll come out ahead.
CCP expects you to come up with clever solutions to this problem and protect your own spoils, by force if necessary. Game function is in no way being abused by what you describe, so don't expect any fixes.
Stuff happens, ninjas will be there sometimes, if you're really losing that much isk, either take em out, ignore them, or go ninja someone else's hard work. Its fun, and lucrative! |

The funny thing is what the OP not consideres.
He wants the loot from the wrecks he shot and want to punish the ones for "taking floating junk".
But what happens if the thief is forced to stay out for a minute? Nothing. The killing pilot still cant do anything about him since the killed one (and his corp) gets the killrights.
And station aggro? Why should the station control order the sentries to engage a ship which did no harm? |

 Totally forgot that. The loot doesn't belong to the OP anyway. |

quit playing station games all day long?
serious, If you stopped doing that weak little 1v1 @ 0m off the dock BS you highsec CAREBEARS call pvp, you wouldn't have nearly as many problems with the peanut gallery scooping up the lewt.
