I was doing a quest in Motsu today when someone entered my instance. He started salvaging my wrecks, but when I tried to shoot him I got a pop-up saying that I'd get destroyed by CONCORD so I didn't. I petitioned CCP and apparently this isn't a bug since he hadn't looted anything. I also petitioned him for griefing my quest but I was told that entering other people's instances is also allowed.
I continued my quest (Damsel in Distress). When I destroyed Krull's pleasure hub the griefer stole the Damsel and tried to sell her back to me. Not wanting to encourage such grief tactics I petitioned him for griefing my quest and was again told that people are allowed to enter my instances and steal my quest items!
To make matters worse, I fired on the griefer after he stole the from a wreck. He got away and came back in an Armaggeddon. He defeated me and ransomed my Raven for 50 million ISK. I don't want to encourage griefing so I didn't pay him and he destroyed my Raven.
Now, what I want to know is this: why does CCP let people enter my instances? Why are they allowed to ruin my quest and salvage wrecks that I made? Where is CONCORD when people engage in grief tactics like this? Is there any way that I can get them to stop? What should I tell CCP in my next petition?

If he's salvaging your wrecks, destroy the wrecks before he gets them.
But then I lose my loot! How come I can't keep both my loot and my salvage?

You got only one thing wrong: stealing a quest item doesn't flag you for pvp, so shooting at him would have resulted in you being concordokened. At least the last time my mission loot got stolen, the guy didn't get flagged.
He stole from a wreck too. Not just from a white diamond cargo container.

Oh, KWyz - Hulk Insurance worked like this: you (hulk pilot) paid them (HIC) to come and "guard" your Hulk during Hulkageddon to ensure that Hulkageddon pilots wouldn't suicide gank you.
Whether they achieved this by blowing up your hulk before the hulkageddon participants got to it, I do not know. Perhaps the business was simply a scam. Hulks are paper thin and thus are easily one-shot by a sufficiently large gathering of Catalyst destroyers, there's no way you can "defend" a hulk from a suicide gank.
So based on the content of the post, and the background of the guy posting it, there is absolute certainty that it is, in fact, a troll post.
So you're saying that I got this character so cheaply (my friend paid ISK for it to get me started in Eve) because someone used it to scam? What if Slippery gets banned for his past owner's actions? :(

1) There are no "instances" in this game
2) There are no "quests" in this game
3) Everything can be looted or traded, there are no specail "quest" items in this game.
1) Isn't my mission (since that's what it's called) an instance then?
3) So I can just buy another Damsel?
