When is CCP going to do something about this bug that people are using to rip people off. I had heard of this but had never experienced it first hand until today. This is what's happening CCP people are getting sick of it and its going to be the quickest way to lose subscriber's to your outstanding game.
1 person fleet's up with an alt or another corp member. This person flys a small fast ship fitted with smart bombs. They Bump into a hauler type ship (Example My Iteron V Fully Fitted and rigged). They instant scan the ship cargo of the hauler because of the bumping of ships. If they see cargo they want, they set off their smart bombs destroying the hauler. Concord blows them up immediately afterwards. they tab to their alt or their corp member in fleet with them fly up locks both wrecks pulls them in salvages and loots both wrecks. I fly back in with a new Iteron V and got aggression counter trying to loot my own wreck. This was in a 1.0 pure high security system. 1 jump from Jita in Perimeter System right after I jumped through the gate. Something needs to be done about this. Granted I am upset over the 3 bil in losses but I am trying to also be sensible about my posting as well. How many people have to be taken advantage of this way before they walk away from the game or it is fixed? Sorry if this sounds like a mild rant but there is no excuse.

don't fly with this much in your untanked itty.
Also, if you do fly with that much then jump on contact with the gate, don't AP or sit at the gate for a while.
and, can I have your stuff? ------------------------------------- My other alt is a Ferrari |

His stuff is gone.
This is sound advice. You allowed yourself to be suicide-ganked. It happens. It has already been acknowledged (for years now) as a viable tactic.

WTB fast ship that can scan and have enough tank/dps to smartbomb an itty V in highsec.
In conclusion, I think you should vote Larkonis Trassler for CSM.

next time fit a tank for crying out loud. You are a gank target if you are hauling more than 200 mill in your cargo, all you need is enough buffer to survive 1 or 2 salvo's. Also stop being a cheap bastard and pony up for an occator, your survivability just went up by a huge margin, and possibly will be ignored even if you autopilot through the system. FFS L2carebear.

They fixed it and called it an Obelisk. If you cant keep one of them alive long enough for concord to come to your rescue then you don't deserve that much loot anyway.

WOW, Epic fail on the part of the OP. That's (maybe) even worse than hauling a cargohold full of morphite in an untanked itty.

So you fit 3b in isk in a ship that costs how many million? You utilize how many of your mid slots for a shield buffer tank?
Fail death is fail. Welcome to EVE. Trying to drum up support in C&P is a tad difficult when the stamping of feet, pointing to 1.0 system security status, and flying an untanked hauler is your argument.

I honestly wish more of the loot had not been destroyed.
Kudos to those that ganked him. You saw an opportunity, you were in the right place at the right time and you got rewarded for it.
The OP on the other hand failed on so many levels it's not even funny. Well, maybe it is funny, but not for him. If you had carried the goods in a T2 hauler you probably wouldn't have gotten killed at all. Guess thats what you get for being a cheap mofo who flies around in T1's.
Also, why didn't you WTZ and warp on contact with the gate? You say they managed to bump you as well, which means you were flying towards the gate, which means you were most likely autopiloting your way there?

The best part really is that he was hauling a T3 cruiser. And it dropped.
I bet you made some suicide ganker VERY happy in the pants :)
Next time, how about not hauling a multi billion isk ship in a COMPLETELY untanked t1 industrial? If you've got the resorces/isk to make/purchase a T3 cruiser, then youve been around long enough to know that people suicide gank idio.... well, people like you. --------------------------------------------

Edited by: Poseign on 19/04/2009 07:51:17 Ill be quite honest with you, Mr. OP, I have been taken by suprise by this tactic before. It happened to me once and cost me about 150 mil, after which point nothing over 50 million isk value gets flown in anything but my Deep space transport or my freighter.
sometimes you just gotta learn by getting hit by it right in the mouth. Unfortunately for you, your lesson cost u billions.
I, like everyone else that has posted above me, am also curious as to why the hell you would transport such a valuable item in a T1 unfit unrigged ship after even hearing about a tactic like that. Surely you didnt think you would never be a target? x-103 Azrael Pilgrim

hahahahaha this thread DELIVERS!
omg... I... I simply don't know what to say.
OP has rendered me speechless, this is brilliant! =D
mistaking a TYPHOON (big ****** battleship) for a 'small fast ship'... brilliant. 'my iteron V fully fitted'.... I guess a TANK doesn't count as a fit huh?
Seriously mate, its jita and surroundings. the most unsafe part of space to fly around with expensive cargo.. T2 hauler/freighter is a MUST.
Also Autopilot is fail.
...
Also, you are fail. __________________________________________________

1) cant smartbomb an ITY V with a frigate
2) cant tractoe other ppls wrecks
3) if you did have stuff left perimeter vultures would clean it out in seconds, you wouldnt be able to get anothet ity 5 there in time
