somethign must be done about the security of containers in high sec systems. There is nothign to stop a hauler flying up to containers that you have spent hours adding to and the contents to be stolen and there aint F*** all you can do about! as soon as you open fire you get nailed by the police when you havent done anythign all you ar trying to do is protect what is rightfully yours. This needs sorting as soon as possible. Make the lockable containters large PLEASE! im loosing far to much to this now. Make the invulnerbale so they cant be destroyed. Once again your making it too easy for pirating.
Dont misunderstand my words i am pleased with the reponce to the pirating at gates but this is a major problem in my opinion. Its happened to me twice now each time loosing abotu a mill worth of minerals. I dont pay money for this i pay money for enjoyment

there, that should get you through the next couple of hours...
This is old news. You sound like you know the reason and solution, so I won't go over it again.
non-secure cans are not secure.
secure cans are secure, but are small, and take extra time to use. That's the tradeoff.
Giving people containers that are password protected and indestructible is not enough any more, it seems.
<edit> the key phrases here are 'spent hours filling' and 'lost millions'. Don't be so greedy, and your losses will be smaller.

We really need a search option on the forums :P
You jettison it then it will probably be stolen. You can shoot the person doing it if you want, but then will have to run and hide from the police.
OR You can take a badger full of secure containers and safely mine to your hearts content.
If you don't like either of those options, then don't mine. Container theifs generally get added into peoples kill on sight lists and the moment they're in a low security sector (even if it takes 2 months for them to get there) they will get destroyed again and again as punishment.
Thats how I deal with em anyway :P

Oh, come on! "I keep dropping piles of cash on the ground and thieves keep taking them! I'm outraged!"
The slick thing about Eve is that so much of what happens is up to the players, not the game system. If you want something to be done about this, then do it. Here's a couple of things I could think of right off the bat:
- Have another ship along as a guard. Have them warn anyone who gets near on the local channel. Granted, this wouldn't stop a determined thief, but everyone in system would be aware of it. It would also let the thief know that the cargo wasn't just abandoned.
- Declare war on the thieves corp. You'd want to warn 'em, first. Eve supports corporate warfare, so use this to your advantage.
- Set a bounty on the thieves heads. Again, you'd want to warn them first.
Look at the way real world mining companies run things. They often have piles of ore lying around. They fence it off and have guards to keep casual thieves away. You can't just expect to leave valuable things sitting around in space unattended...

Ok here we go, do you put $100 bill on the ground in a busy city then walk away and come back later expecting it to be there?

Especially since we all know that CONCORD doesn't exist to protect us and our valuables (it exists to prevent violence, which is an entirely different thing, but that's for another rant).

I kind of see this as part of the game, only thing they really need to change is the fact you cant shoot them without getting capped by the retard concord squad.
