I do/did ninja-looting.
I do justice to the word ninja, as i use a highly utilized, cloaky cheetah ... ... with ship-scanner (to scan you) ... ... cargo-scanner (to scan wrecks) ... ... and of course a salvager.
I warp cloaked into your mission.
F1, ALT+Space, -, F2, F1 (necessary keys to press ... "what's ALT+Space?" LOL) A two-seconds timeframe until i can cloak again, which fits. Your wreck is scanned and you (probably) didn't even notice.
At around 2400m ... i halt. Fully cloaked, as "decloak" is at 2000m.
Using keyboard and mouse, i can ... ... decloak ... ... open the can ... ... click into it and CTRL+A ... (imagine a mouse-button set as keyboard-shortcut. it's legal. ^^) ... move it into my cargo and cloak.
Takes two to three seconds. Maybe four, seldomly matters anyway. :)
Chance is high i get into your mission early, which means there are plenty of NPCs on your overview ...
... which means (further away) you don't even recognize me ...
... and if you recognize me ... it's of no use anyway. :)
Better Gate-Campers utilize modules shortening their locking-time dramatically, enabling them to lock on to a fast aligning, cloaking covops within a 1-2s timeframe.
You can't do that ! :D :D :D
Now ... there are counters, of course.
Some of you probably have already at least one in their head.
Plenty of you who are now reading this ... ... have NO clue what to do against it.
AND I WON'T TELL ! I'M SO UNFAIR, REALLY !! .......
It's guys like you, that open a topic, scream "HE STOLE AND I COULDNT DO **** ABOUT IT !!" and demand our game to get changed.
Giving thousands of reasons why you're logic is justified ... (by yourself, at least) ... you totally ignore why it simply isn't.
To be very honest, it seems that many capsuleers in new eden seriously lack knowledge of game mechanics.
To play this game, you need to use your brains and gather knowledge. Of course, you don't have to ... then you just suck at the game. :)
Also, what helps in EvE is personal responsibility (actions have/used to have consequences, be carefull) and the ability to sort your **** out yourself, or being able to ask some friends to help you.
If you fail at that, you go crying at the forum. Proof ? Just take a look around.
I understand that ppl maybe want to play a game that enables them to get a testosterone-rush by shooting stupid AI unharmed and watching them pop. (see "Drake" or "RattleSnake" for reference)
(anybody see the connection to ninja-salvagers, btw ? ^^)
... but not caring about other aspects of the game ... ... and instead demanding changes in the game ... ... because WE play the game in a way it's meant to be played ...
... well ... nope.
This can't be stressed enough.
1. You're trying to deal with in-game-stuff outside of the game. 2. You need to adapt to the game, not the other way round. 3. If you fail to do that, it's the wrong game for you.
Also, if you fail to realize your mistake within ... ... the timeframe it takes until it impacts enough ppl ... ... (read: ****es off too many of us) ... ... people _will_ start kicking carebearing candy asses even more. (hopefully everywhere)
Wardeccing mining-corps is easy. Wardeccing small noobish corps is even easier. Wardeccing mission-runners-corps ... you get the point.
"There'll never be enough ppl to have an impact."
You're wrong. Welcome to EvE. You're actually building this already.
Oh, and of course ... i hear you say ... "lol big deal, you fail. they just retreat to noobcorp so wardec is futile".
*lol*
And soon they'll cry about the 11% corptax ... ... and about getting ganked all the time ... (even more than now) ... and whatever i can't yet imagine ...
... until you realize ... you just need to fight back. it's easier this way, too. :)
(: (thx, i needed that. ^^)

meanwhile hundreds of other people are doing the same thing with greater efficiency while not relying on a cloak

Looting with cloak? You lost your balls or something?  If I ever meet such idiot in game I give him some iskies for the new head in jar.

I have a bad habit of running directional scans even when I'm high sec missioning (which I barely ever do nowadays).
Now if I did see you one of two things would probably happen.
1) I'de abandon my wrecks, because I honestly don't give a ****.
2) I'de destroy my wreck, because I honestly don't give a ****.
Look people this is really a tired, and dumb scenario.
Your mission ship is worth 1-2 billion isk, the misison you're in is worth 5 - 40 million isk, that loot he stole is probably worth 100k - 2 million isk at most.
It is never worth risking a mission ship for something as worthless as mission loot.

Dear OP.
I'm the carebear alt. When you show up I dock.
I'd tell you who the ******* alt is but it's more fun to ride you into the ground bareback. Sadly when they show up, you run like a girl. |

Stopped at the word cloaky... because really, what else in that wall o' text could possibly matter if he's a cloaked mission ninja?

Originally by: Saul Khaladran The point of you even posting this OP? Other than to boast you slowly steal salvage?
Thanks for asking.
No, it's loot. Not the salvage. And i know it's not worth it, so don't believe i'm trying to impress here.
I consider that as fun. If you do that or not isn't important, i could care less about ISKwhoring ppl who believe i am failing with this, tbh.
You, of course, are entitled to do whatever you want, even if it seems to be what most other ppl want to do too.
...
Point is, they can't do **** about it.
Well, of course they COULD, just like against a ninja-salvager. But instead, they go crying on the forum to change the game. Just as with the salvagers.
And i'm not talking about "shooting" actually, because they can't lock me on anyway.
Why is it, that people put their **** onto the forum, when they could deal with it in-game instead ... ... which is where it belongs anyway ?

Nice. But no.
ALT+Space = put focus on overview (try pressing up/down-arrow-keys now) CTRL+Space = stop ship
Check the order of the keys, that i need to press, again. Ship gets stopped before F1.

That's fine with me. And of course i do run.
Why should i want to lose my ship, especially if i can't win anyway ? O_o
Also, if you show up again, i'll scan your ship. (given that it's possible and you don't snipe me from greater distace)
Depending on your ship and guesstimated fitting, i may come back after switching ship myself.
also ... grammar. i have none.

Originally by: Solstice Project I do justice to the word ninja,
1. Check Dscan - 750million radius, filter out moon, asteroids, POS, wrecks 2. See Probes. 3. Right click - Release. Target Wrecks, destroy. 4. ??? 5. Profit! Move on, there are other missions to run. Loss is a loss, but not so much as actually giving it up which is not even a loss to begin with. Depriving someone with a long winded opinion of themselves is the same as that person's opinion that they actually took something of value from a carebear. Good luck wasting time carebearing in highsec where CONCORD is protecting your ass and you have zero risk because any mouth breathing, crashhelmt wearing ****** knows PVE ships pop like a ballon so might as well go play WoW with just as zero risk content. Any more nerfs and it just won't be worth the hassle to even play EVE and find some other MMO with less boring NPC content to pay for PVP.

1. Apply to a corp living in 0.0 2. Do missions, anoms, and plexs in your new home 3. Kill anyone you feel like who tries to steal from you, or even looks at you funny. 4. Profit A LOT

It is called unprobable tengu. If someone wants to never be scanned down, it is easily within their power to do so.

I would bet more people than you know realize that you're sneaking around in their missions OP, they just don't care, lol. Salvage and Loot aren't really worth what they used to be when salvage was first introduced. Plus a lot of loot got nerfed, so like I said, many people probably don't care. Maybe you're not as sneaky as you think you are. ;)
