It's the same as when you target someone who jumps the gun and fires before agro. I've seen mining barges killed because they didn't wait for the flip. If they aren't looking too closely at the scan, you can get a window to get out. I'd be interested to see if it still works, and I'm skeptical that all the gankers in jita (or any major trade route or hub) have magically learnt not to shoot the first thing that looks juicy. In the same way that good gate campers will still get you in your industrial, some of them get so hungry for a kill you can send a sacrifice through first - it may not always work, it may not often work, but it has and will again.
Like everything in eve, you have to weigh up the risks, if for some reason you must move that big item out of jita now (I can't think of a reason not to wait for a better time), then you need something shiny to distract the gankers - it may not work, but the payoff if it does might be good enough. ------------------------- How do I set my laser printer to stun? |

Originally by: MeatSlab Well, Thank you for all the comments. Even the jerks that feel its a good idea to be cruel. Eve is a cruel world and I like it.
I petitioned the incident just to see what kind of response that I would receive. I was not really expecting to get anything. I also wanted to show others that this has happened to what to expect. This is what they will tell you...
Greetings Meatslab,
Thank you for contacting EVE customer support. I am sorry to hear about your loss. It is possible for players to destroy your ship even while in 1.0 systems if they can do enough damage before concord destroys their ship. This is an intended game mechanic as the offenders are always punished. I really am sorry for your loss, but I will not be able to reimburse or otherwise compensate you in this matter. If you have any other questions or problems, or would like your petition closed, please let me know.
Best regards, GM ****** EVE Online Customer Support Team
So play smarter. And when people say "flysafe" they are serious.
Ok... you can abuse me now...
GM's are such pros. Imagine being able to write something so polished, polite and professional while cackling and doing shots of Tears of Unfathomable Sadness. (Not a slam on GM's, at all:) I'm not mocking you (well, a little, because anything that happens in a badger is a little bit laughable by default), since I put like 60 mil in random crap i bought elsewhere, and flew afk through a route that took me 2 jumps from Jita in a rookie ship. Of course, I got sb'd and podded.

I run loads with values in the multi-billion ISK range out of J-4-4 all the time.
No worries about ganks. Just re buying it all with the collateral payment when the guy I hired to run it gets popped.
Courier contracts FTW
