OK I know its allowed by CCP but I think if your running missions in 0.7+ security that someone should NOT be allowed to come in and steal your salvage and if they do then you should be at least able to shoot at them with out getting concord sicked on you.
You can already shoot them if they steal your salvage.

It keeps coming up because of errors like this. You CANNOT shoot them for salvage; you CAN shoot them for the loot contained within the wreck.
It is not an error. If they steal your salvage, you can shoot them. Period. Even the CCP devs have confirmed this.
If you can figure out why I'm right, you find the answer to why these inane threads keep popping up.
FWIW, both the OPs wishes have already come true: not only can you shoot salvage thieves freely, there are sections of space where you're free to blow away anyone who enters your mission area.

taking it right infront of you is just griefing.
LMAO.

Yeah. Those 10h for Salving III are murderous.

I had someone ninja loot me the other day - not the same as ninja salvaging, but I really would have liked to have the opportunity to kill the little ***** (without being Concorded) nonetheless. Nothing like clearing a nasty Serpentis complex only to have some little bastard swoop in and steal the key to the next complex before I could reach the container (the last couple of kills took me a fair distance away).
I guess the lesson learned is kill anyone who comes near you, Concord be damned. I would have lost a cruiser (compared to the newb ship he would have lost) but at least I would have had some satisfaction.
No. The lesson learned is: be quick.
A missed opportunity is not the same thing as theft. This goes for salvage and asteroids and free-for-all containers and all other kinds of scrap that's floating around in space: if you want it, get it before someone else does, and stop blaming others for your own slowness.

As to the efficacy of tractors - 
Sit at 0 distance to a MR and salvage his wrecks as he tractors them in. Why do I need tractors?
Are they really that stupid?!

Some of them actually are.
Read the OP, and then think about it.
Well… I suppose that would explain why they think ninja salvaging is effortless: they willingly feed the salvager with all the wrecks he wants, rather than force him to work for them…

Sure, running level 4s in a marauder is better for isk, but it also takes a year to train for (versus the week or so it takes for salvaging and probing skills) and a marauder costs a bil+ fittings, a salvage boat starts at half a mil including fittings.
…and is also completely free of competition. Until missions are made competetive, MRs can't really complain that other professions provide great returns for little training and/or investment (relative to their own), because those returns have to be fought for and earned in a PvP environment.
(Never mind the fact that the training that goes into running missions serves multiple purposes, making it a thoroughly flawed metric to use to justify anything.)
