Double wrapping is a logistical tool sued by almost all of the corporations providing moving services. It'd disrupt the emergent gameplay you so much drive towards.
Instead of removing features, let's fix what you think is one of the biggest issues: fix killmails to show items inside double wraps. This should provide you with killmails with juicy numbers. |

This is where the exploit comes into play, it basically breaks the cargo scan mechanic, allowing people to transport items with the security of people not being able to know what is inside of the cargo. This essentially turns any active ship in the game into a blockade runner, it can be done on any ship in the game, allowing freighters to move around cargo without the disadvantages of being able to be cargo scanned by would be pirates, or war targets, or whomever has interest in knowing what they are carrying, as is their right through the cargo scan mechanic.
No I dont believe its an exploit. And my solution is rather simple... It is my opinion that if you want to know whats in the package bad enough then attack them and take the package. Ok, even if we did kill them randomly to get the drop, their kill still reads 0 isk, reguardless of whether we knew or not if it had something the kill's value is then negated in the same way the scan is. Its an exploit.
You still get the packet. Besides - try autopiloting a blockade runner and see how long you last ;) Some people just like to play lottery. This would be just playing with a little higher bets if you happen upon a freighter carrying one of these double wraps. It's like x-mas. All that excitement unwrapping stuff and seeing what pops out. And unlike x-mas most of the time in EVE I would bet what comes out is better than another pair of socks :D
One note - what do you think is more probable. A person going through the trouble of double wrapping for a valuable cargo or a person shipping some crap that is not worth suiciding around?
As far as killmails go. Ahh mate just stop fretting about the numbers and go play the game for the fun.
Here, sanity... niiiice sanity, come to daddy... okay, that's a good sanity... *THWONK!*

People such as Push and RF always double wrap their hauls, even if it's a single corpse worth zilch on the market. |

I agree that this mechanic doesn't make sense. Don't haul what you can't afford to lose. If you want to haul officer stuff around get a brick tanked ship or a JF and cyno....don't use cheap double wrapping tricks to hide your cargo. |
