Is there any way to control loot in a fleet? For example, if I am ganged with someone who is not in a corp with me or I just know casually and we do a complex and something valuable drops, it would appear he can just take it and leave. Is there any way to prevent this from happening? |

alternatively being a bloodthirsty savage works well to.
people tend not to steal from them.

There are several ways, including, but not limited to:
Warp scramblers Warp disruptors Warp disruption field generators Interdiction sphere launchers Getting there first Preemptive annihilation of your fleetmate

Use your words, appeal to their humanity. When that inevitably fails you may need to resort to passive aggression or even just the regular flavour of aggression. |

No, eve is a harsh world and there is nothing stopping you taking the valuable module and running with it. You can see what people have taken from the fleet window though. |

If it isn't my mates, I will crash a Plex and steal the loot 100% of the time.
I will add that I am sure of my capabilities, and theirs when I do this.
If it's a camp or roam, loot goes to pay any pilots who lost ships.
So there is no loot "settings" just good ole' fashioned ehonor. Do with that what you will.
Loyd and Ralph's advice is as solid as any, and if they take the time to post in your thread their advice is usually the most usable. They may seem like trolls, but you have to understand their bitter cynicism. |

I don't consider myself bitter, I simply tell it like it is. The game is what it is, the only people who would consider me or Ralph a troll, simply don't accept the game for what it is or in some cases are oblivious to what it is.

Let me rephrase that question for you Droidster.
Is there an in game switch that will prevent my "friends" from stealing MY loot?
Answer - No there is no switch you can use to prevent it.
"If you do not see it my way I have not been sufficiently violent with you." I heard that once and in a different setting but it seems appropriate to this situation so I leave it here for you to consider.

BTW, this can still happen in a corp fleet. It can happen in any fleet. Fly with those you only trust or you know IRL.
Also, what is to prevent the OP from taking the loot and not sharing the dividends? Answer: Nothing. |

I really didn't think that or any of my comments would resonate with you like that. Color me flattered..... |

When people I respect say things that make me think they don't really know where I am coming from I will take the time to try to articulate it better.

Players of Eve could learn a lot from gentlemen like you. Which makes my original post stand, aside from the bitter cynicism part.
