I'm voting to remove the blockade mission.
I've done lvl4 blockade quiet a few times and always lost most of the loot by thieves. Therefore I vote for removing this mission or move it away from any gates.

The loot is pretty much crap if its in high sec I usually ingore them or report htem to thier corp if I can. If not I loot what I can after as I usually just refine the crap anyway, besides how would those alts make a living then mine  .

Agreed the mission should be scrapped.
And I dont think the "go to a lower sec system" is a viable answer. Sure you would be able to shoot them, but they would also be able to shoot you and maybe even turn up with a gank squad as you are up to your neck with npc rats.
You can turn missions down now though without a rating drop with your agent, so thats probably the best answer if you are solo and the loot thieves are about

On the other hand, in E&B the loot was locked for a while so one could at least try to recover it. Maybe this would help as well.

Errrr..
Remove the mission because you cheapskates get your panties in a twist because alt's are stealing your cans....
How about no.
Easy solution guys.. bit the miners that know it's totally stupid to go for a mining session in high sec travel systems...
Find a system a little less quiet.. there's plenty of small community mission groups in local isolated systems well away from the guys that do this... All they do is prey on your ignorance..

So let me get things straight here. A perfectly fine mission needs to be removed because you are too lazy to search for a less populated system?

Menod (a rather infamous thief in Heimatar) was warned by the GMs that stealing mission loot is considered an exploit and was warned off as he faced a ban otherwise. This is ANY mission loot, mission objective (like marines) or not.
Just petition the loot thief and you should be reimbursed, plus hopefully the thief will be warned and/or banned. This DOESN'T apply to ore thieves however.
I'm not sure if this applied in 0.4 and under though.

Sorry Capt, but you seem to have missed something here. There are no "less populated" agent systems, and you do get sendt to do the mission outside the agent system.
And for those who like to jammer and whine about going to low sec, ..what if the corp you're working for doesn't have a low sec agent. Such a sorry bunch of lamers.

Move it away from the gates? It really wouldn't be a "blockade" mission any more now would it?
ROFL
What would want to call it instead? The "Pointless NPC attempt to stop ships flying around 100 AU's from the nearest stargate" mission?

Most agents are condensed into a small area of systems so it's not that viable an option.

There are in fact some systems with lots of agents in secure space that are not having a Rensesque population.
Do a bit of research instead of joining the Rens/Jita etc crowd with over 100 mission runners in system.

This is for mission objectives only, tool. The blockade mission doesn't require you to pick up anything from the loot. What this guy was doing was taking things like 'special delivery' that you need to complete the mission.

Your taking the **** no?
No less populated systems with agents.......
Umm you actualy managed to figure out how to talk to agent... so i guess you can't be that stupid...
You miss the point Dood, there's plenty of mission haunts out there with 10 or so regular people frequenting the system... these are people you get to talk to.. get to know.... and guess what.... you find no 'can theifs' what so ever in these systems.
Get out there......

Nope I haven't missed a thing. What I do see are a bunch of people who are too lazy to check the info sheet of a certain corp they want to do missions for, go to the agents tab and go through all the agents available to you and checking them out........... I guess that's just too much work so they go to Rens/jita/niyabainen or whatever.....
There are plenty of high secure systems around with good agents that have hardly more than 10-15 people in local on any given moment, you just have to take the time and find them.....
I don't want to come across as too arogant but I've been playing this game for 2 years now and I've been doing missions from day 1 so I do kinda know where I'm coming from........check my standings if you must

Usually if some1 starts taking the loot while i am doing this mission i warp away. Why do i do this ? because the NPC start to lock everyone else and not just you. Most of these theives are in frigates and badly equiped ships and usually lose there ships as a result.
remeber the NPC don't disappear till yuo dock and only lock you when you are there

The NPCs do *not* lock anyone in the area on the blockade mission. Only the person on the mission and anyone that happens to fire on them. Ive seen multiple BSs pulled right next to the gate and the mission person warped away. No one coming near the gate was ever shot.
And the idea that "the loot suck, so who cares" isnt always true. Sometimes, for this mission, some really big rats- faction ships- show up on the last encounter with some really nice loot.

So ask a friend on fast frigate to collect loot for you.

Kill the cans. The thief won't get anything, so will go somewhere else. When he's gone resume collecting.
