Mmmm.. ninja salvage victim tears. This makes me want to dust off the salvage desty and come looking for the OP.
For the 10000000th time, this argument has been settled long ago, and ninja salvaging/looting has already nerfed with:
1) loot agg flag.
2) the completely unrealistic property of "other people's metal" being immune to tractor beams.
3) a new ship with ridiculous tractor beam range to make it even easier for missioners to beat out ninjas.
Ninja salvage remains one of the best way for days-old chars to make ISK, not to mention dip their feet into PVP. If it wasn't for ninja salvage I would have grown bored of running L1 missions and left EVE before finding out what a beautiful and relatively un-nerfed game it really is. Those who advocate nerfing ninja salvage need to be super-wedgied and shoved in a locker with a pile of dirty undies like the nerfy whiny nerds they are.

 Originally by: Mr Cleann
The same excuse can be said about stealing loot.
I agree. There is a logic disconnect here caused by the nerf on stealing loot. Said nerf should be removed immediately.

However it does give people that want to partake in salvaging wother peoples wrecks a zero risk profession. Because the person that generated that wreck can only sit by and do nothing.
Or they can use the tractor beams on their Noctis, which gives them an insane advantage over the ninja. Or they can blow up the wrecks. Or they can try to trick the ninja into looting. Or they can warp out and let the NPCs agg on the ninja and kill him or drive him off. So really, "sit by and do nothing" is simply your own lack of imaginative solutions.

Quick vote. Which do you have more respect for:
1) A year-old player making 50m/hr doing L4s handed to him on a platter by an NPC via bookmark, using mission reports so he knows exactly what to expect, whining about the guy below or;
2) A weeks-old player who has learned how to probe down missioners, found the guy above, warped in not sure if he's flying into a hornet's nest of red, for a chance at making a couple mill for books.
Sorry but I'd rather have beers with the second guy. He's out there taking risks and pushing the envelope with very limited SP, limited game knowledge, competing with real players instead of NPCs with a walk-through. Best of all he's extracting bear tears in week one or two which is awesome.
Ninjas are cool. Missioners are boring.
