Depends on how you look at it I suppose. If you're bumping a ship out of a POS shield so you can reap those juicy tears, then that is not really harassment.
I suppose if you have a purpose to what you're doing, that is not harassment, then it probably isn't considered harassment. There's probably a fine line somewhere, though I'm assuming whoever you're posting about has crossed it _____________________________________ Real men corpse tank. |

Most likely explanation: you are literally ******ed.
2nd place: you were bumping mining ships for **** and giggles and got petitioned.
Grow a pair and wardec/suicide gank them already.

If you do it with an actual purpose instead of bumping someone just for ****s and giggles you should be fine. If you are in battle/about to initiate combat or you bump someone off a wreck/can so you can loot it first are some valid uses for bumping. Intentionally bumping freighters for lolz isn't. That rule is propably limited to just highsec, since there people are pretty much helpless to do anything about the bumping other than to petition you for harassment.

its part of a **** storm they started.
carebear pirates camped a hi sec gate in low sec. I jumped in with a dominix ( insured ) just to get kill rights and maybe kill one while i was at it. I killed a harbinger. then died lol.
few days later the ceo of the carebear pirate corp was "afk/macroing" in his hulk when i claimed my 1st kill rights. no one would be so stupid as to mine with open kill rights on them would they?
now they are all *****y at me lol.
Now i am usiung the bump tactic to annoy them after being told no matter what corp i join i will get war decced.

Pretty stupid yes. However you got to admit this game mechanic along with the punitive lowsec sec status whacks for pvp/piracy just makes it even less likely anyone will venture out of high sec. More accounts with more alts ... *yawn

Hmm. I'll revise my initial assessment. Decent play with the Domi. But if their CEO likes mining/afk-ing it is highly unlikely they will continuously wardec you. Call them out on their **** and blow them up.

this bumping lark dates back at least 3 or 4 years from when,
a) campers used to use a nano-frig to bump BS's away from gates b) fleets used to play 'POS bowling' to fire other peeps outta the shields
it got fixed a while back iirc, but not very well by the sounds of it

Will that mean I cannot undock the Veldnaught... as the undock ramp is very small, and it is a very big ship...

Bumping a neutral freighter pilot in highsec all day long is harrasment and will get you a ban. Bumping war tergets and targets you are suiciding is ok. --------------------------------------

Everything is harassment if you do it enough times for no useful purpose. Nothing is harassment if you do it once to ensure a kill/profit/whatever. ùùù ôIf you're not willing to fight for what you have in ≡v≡à you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.ö ù Karath Piki |

What category would you put bumping/targeting someone so he'll make a mistake?

There's the part where it goes from "valid tactic" such as preventing warp-away on a combat target, to being "harrassment" with no other end product.

Yup. But doing it 23/7 just for lols becomes harassment. Which is what our OP admits doing, but failed to point that out in his original attempt to garner sypmathy.

Easiest it is to think what would it take for you to file a petition.
a) Someone hunting you down and suicide ganking you repeately many times during same week?
b) Someone coming always to same belt where you are mining and bumping your ship just to make your day worse?
c) Someone bumping random people all over the empire and suicide ganking them just for lols after they open up in local?
If you answered (a), (b) or both, then you most likely know answer to this entire topic also.

It was deemed a exploit back in the day when you where able to bump freighters/BSs in shuttles to stop them from aligning and then ransoming them to let them free. So bumping for the sake of bumping is a exploit.
However bumping a ship off station to blow it up or out of a POS is not a exploit.
At least thats how I remember it being explained
