Nope - don't do that - consider it impolite.
Don't whine - adapt or quit.  -- ** All accounts cancelled - have fun guys ** |

Originally by: Vernn I don't believe the original thesis of the post was one of want of ways to avoid having your ore stolen, but rather the fact that it is an unscrupulous act that should warrant the victim the right to attack said thief.
And, Einstein, I pointed out that it's called a JETTISON can - and that means you threw it away, ffs.
You're reply quoting me in an earlier post did a great job at taking things out of context. Is the original poster your alt or something? You both seem to have trouble accepting the 'rules' of EVE...
They gave you the tools to avoid thieves - secure cans.
If you think they're not big enough, talk to ccp nicely with some suggestions instead of using a game mechanic to try to get round the prablem and then whining when someone else picks up your 'trash' from the JETTISON can...  -- ** All accounts cancelled - have fun guys ** |

The only "victory" you are likely to achieve by your whining is CCP limiting the size of jet cans to the maximum cargohold size of the ship that jettisoned the can. This makes great sense, doesn't it?! I think I'll start advocating this just to shut you people up! :D :D :D
That idea actually makes sense... -- ** All accounts cancelled - have fun guys ** |

Yep...
It will take teamwork to kill an oretief who has a brain...
I can think of some fun traps to set for them :)
Flagging 'ore thieves' is giving them a license to kill in 1,0 - glad you guys are happy with it.
In UO we used to take a 'sec hit' for attacking innocents; however - if we stole something from them and they hit us before we hit them, then we could kill them and take ALL their loot, not just one item, with no penalty.
They called us 'noto PKs' originally because the 'sec hit' used to affect your 'notoriety'.
Flagging for stealing is a PvP thief's wet dream  -- ** All accounts cancelled - have fun guys ** |
