There are 2 topics on this. I wonder which one the Mods will choose.

here is a thought, why not implement this:
a player steals ore and his security rate goes down unless he/she is ganged or is a member of the same corp. there you go, a nice remedy for player stupidity. Besides, theft is theft. If a player sees theft of ore as a potential way for profit, he/she may have to rethink his "profession".

That sounds good... But that goes with the hostile act idea. AND OPENING JET CANS WILL NEVER BE A HOSTILE ACT. Jetting a objects(which makes a can is the same thing as destroying a player and there stuff is there in a jet can.
Now if you buy a unsecure container and use it and someone opens it, that should be a hostile act and they would get a sec hit and you could also shoot them.
IF you read my post above you would see I mentioned that when you buy a secure or non-secure can and anchor(as they now call it) in space you will see your char info in the cans info window. They are making it so that opening those(which now belong to a player) is a hostile act.
Putting a regular jet can out in space, weither it be by, jetting cargo or destroying a rat or PC. Does not put ownership on the object and never will. So anybody can open it.

Many people use some real life example like if you left your wallet on the street or your keys in your car. But those are far from wrong. They are not the same. Your Wallet has your info and ID on it. Your car is IDed somewhere as yours. Taking those two thing that aren't yours is a hostile act.
Using a jet can for mining is more like using the atm and dumping the money on the side of the steet as you collect it. The game just decides to put it all in a container. Now that the money is on the side of the steet anybody could take it. Even a cop could take it and nothing happen because it is now not a hostile act. especailly if you walk away from it to get your car(indy) to collect it in. Don't be surprised if it isn't there when you get back and its your fault for not putting it in something that Identified it as your.

Here is what I think.
AFK miners and Carebear miners should be nerfed as well. To force them to get really earn there money and go out in the rest of the world. Ore Thiefs right now are the only means of doing this.
I see only the AFK miners and carebear miners crying about this anyway.
Newbs too but I don't think you should be able to steal from them.
I can see if the can is sitting right next to you when they come and steal ore as a hostile act. But if they were to impliment an idea like this I would make it so that as soon as you leave the belt and the can is no longer owned by you. That would fix the problem.
Or make it so Cops come and kill the thief only for players that are less then a week old.
CCP can't make everyone happy. If they totally kill Ore thiefs abilities. Other people will start whinning that AFK miners have it way to easy.
No if this Idea happened in game with no nerfing of the AFK/Carebear miners as well. I would start a petition agianst it, and would have alot of support. More so then the abillity to kill ore thiefs in 1.0 space.
If you want to kill ore thiefs then go to .4 and below otherwise buy secure cans.
If they really wanted to get rid of ore thiefs they would have made secure contains bottomless or expandable with how much ore you put in it. But they don't. Why, because of AFK/Carebear miners.
It would have been too easy to kill off that profession al long time ago. But EVE says you can become anything you want.
If they want to nerf that profession more. Then they should raise the the ability for Pirates(Neg sec rating players) to come into empire space and put in less cops. Or lower the amount of ore in empire space, make it real easy for a belt to disapear from over mining, so easy that it forces players to go out further.
Or make it so players over a month are not alowed to enter .8 and above belts.
Or Keep it the way it is.
I have seen Battleships in .8 systems striping belts clean leaving nothing for newb miners.
If you notice everyone goes to those systems to mine veld and other easy ore and then go out further and just mine the rest. They should go back to the old way of refilling the roid.
If you got to the .8 systems and above there is hardly any ore. I fyou go to the .2 belts for jaspet there is hardly any jaspet, Kernite, omber ect... and HUGE Veld and Scorite roids. So big you cann't even get close enough to mine them!!!
They Nerf Fighters. They Nerf Pirates. They Nerf PvP. I think they should Nerf Miners.
I heard a about a hacking skill that would allow you to hack into a secure can. That totally contradics what this poster is saying.
I say go ahead and allow this to happen. Then you will so pirates in Battleships coming in to steal your ore, go ahead and fire on them then. They would do it becuase they want your ore, but to start a fight so they can kill you for free.
I am not against AFK Miners that are newbies. I am against afk miners that are striping the belts in newb land.
I have another Char(unnamed) that ore steals. I don't REPEAT don't steal from the newby players. I see a guy in a Thorax mining with an unsecure can next to him. I go up and steal from it. And if they make that skill to allow players to hack secure cans I will make sure he gets that one too.
