It would make them think twice or have to be smart and align out every time. I'm trying to be constructive here because these loot thieves are stealing hundreds of billions a month and using it for who knows......possibly to sell for rl money and buy prostitutes and drugs....just sayin'
Neutral badger solves everything, and they turn suspect for 15 minutes, why are you crying so hard did tora spill your milk? |

Im having a hard time relating Tora (hi buddy!) to this thread. He is the best alliance ceo ive ever had to play eve with. He lets me do my own thing.....even if i get jumped by 20 haters. I use my neutral toons for other stuff. Links and logi for one.
Tora fills my milk cup...he never spills a drop. |

Tonight folks we have a great film and entertainment line up for you, we have some real classics...
Starting off with;
Someone salvaged my mission
Followed by;
Ninja's looted my wrecks
Not forgetting the classic;
A bad man flipped my can
Then onto;
I failed to loot my kill even with all my neutral alts
And lastly the jewel in the crown;
I posted yet another dumb idea on the forum due to my ineptitude
We do hope you enjoy tonights listings, please remember there are drinks and refreshments near the ticket office. There now follows a short intermission.......

popcorning like a boss in another Holeysheet1 tears thread.
Here is what i propose for the bored.
Get in a fast, stabbed frig. [Vigils work great]
Run locates on Holeysheet1
follow him wherever he goes.
Approach 0 everyone he attacks.
Set inventory to 'high value items only'
Set an overview tab to only show wrecks, celestials and stations.
As soon as you see wreck , lootall.
warp to celestial or more likely, dock up.
Profit.
Do not forget to link scooped shinies in local thanking Holeysheet1 for paying for the next few months of Eve.

Why don't you just kill the people stealing from you?
You might want to google the crime mechanics for Eve.
You are making the wrong kind of meta. This reflects badly on you. |

Looting can be great income, but its all based on chance. Eve is becoming a more pay-to-play game than it used to be.
Radar and mag sites in normal space are much less lucrative now.
DED sites are a goldmine, but onerus...and with the t3 gimp on 4/10's.....
Scanning and probing can now be done with a trained monkey....or posssibly chinchilla
Escrow trade is not as lucrative as it used to be.
I made a small fortune from every facet of eve....yes even PI (max efficiency). I guess im being defensive.....loot thieves suck. |

6 b is enough isk for a while. I scammed 27 b from merc contracts and 1.2 from locates are us. That is enough isk for a while zeus. |

I do see what your saying but I guess everyone will have to change with the times. Obviously a great money maker at one point was the moon goo, then incursions, then faction warfare, and now carrier ratting with 2 carriers and a dread.
My point is that the real isk is mostly made by exploiting rare forms of income. Whether it be something so simple where no one thought to do it or extremely complex that it takes a day or so of startup time.
Looting does have it moments so I commend you for even trying. Like most loot though, it all ends up in some random hanger to be trashed at a later date  Best to let the scavengers fight over it. |

They do go suspect after looting a yellow wreck, right? Why not kill them - or do they redock too quickly?
Whilst I was being stupid earlier (and often for that matter) if you do have neutral scout alts, why not have them nearby ready to scoop?
I think a killright is a bit excessive. If that was the case I'd have a TON on me by now, since I mostly go and pick over the corpses of fights/gatecamps/camp breakers and take their stuff. Going suspect is fine imo, although to me it doesn't make a difference since it's low anyway and I'm shootable by all.

I like to watch them scurry for the loot then blow it up right as they get close.
If your worried about your loot then scurry yourself.
Given that, sometimes these people stealing your loot are putting more risk in eve than you do killing your targets.
But a timer for docking would be a fun addition that I would like to see for loot stealing. |

How about a stealing minigame before you can actually loot the wreck and maybe let the looting part consist of everything being launched into space for everyone to grab?

A dock/jump timer would be great, but then the gankers would have to deal with it too, so be careful what you wish for. |

As a retired loot/ninja salvager I *yawn* feel for you bro!
BTW, if you're looting from people, make sure you anchor some GSC's in space to act as your offload depot. You'll easily avoid people gunning for you with your suspect flag.

So what ur saying is you don't like people stealing your loot.
However you have no problem in war deccing carebear corps and killing pretty much people that cant fight back and you lose their loot? If i may offer a tip? Maybe not camping the undock of Rens/Amarr/Jita your 5h!t wouldn't get stolen 
I tend to get angry at a lot of stuff in eve, however i ask myself this. Would i do that? The answer is usually yes so i can't complain. |
