CCP can you please make the can flipping in highsec as it was few years ago?
I know I can still take someones can in highsec, but I really don't want to be a target for everyone in eve for 15 mins once I do that.
It used to be fun back then doing this. Even those who lost their cans enjoyed hunting the can flippers. Not to mention the smack talk and the other stuff.
This was in fact the best thing to do when I had nothing else going on in eve. But now can flipping is not so fun because of the strange aggro rules. |

Confirming that you only want a mining barge to be able to shoot you back.
Them and those mining battleships. |

Yes that too.
I wonder why CCP never thought about this seriously before changing it. They literally made highsec boring for everyone other then miners and missioners with these high sec aggro rules. |

Confirming, OP doesn't like getting shot at but likes destroying ships that the best thing they could do was blow up and a stupid time sink to sit in a belt waiting to explode....but now the OP doesn't like the fact that anyone can shoot back since there is now consequences to his actions since its not just the miner that can fight back, who probably rarely fought back. Irony, meet kettle....now OP gets a taste of what its like to be a "bad azz" with anyone who can attack them. Confirming, you are just a troll.
P.S: Miners fighting back? Get real bro. |

If you still win, you will still get those people that want to learn and stick around.
Its not worth the effort to can flip these days. And for people like me who play with single character, risk is bit too much. |

The risk is too much for the risk averse? feature seems to be working brilliantly. Yes, but for miners. |

Confirming OP has yet to grow a pair. At least CODE. has the stones to operate at a sec status that allows everyone to shoot them. OP is merely afraid of PvP when there is even the remote chance he could lose, so he shiptoasts on forums to get his risk averse method of shooting mining barges back,
Ugh, now I need a shower. I feel so dirty after reading this thread.
What you on about? Who is CODE? Why should I care about how they play? Besides if you have are so fearless why you want CCP to help you mine in highsec? Seems to me you are scared of higsec canflippers, but just don't want to admit about it. |

no can flipping is still working for ppl looking to steal ore. its just not working well for people wanting to 1v1 miners.
Canflipping is not just about stealing ore. Perhaps you shouldn't talk about things you don't know?

With current aggro rules, the person who lost the can/wreck does not have to do anything. He can just wait for others to go after the can flipper. This itself changes the whole scenario. So you telling us that nothing has changed is not true. |

So make friends with and/or war dec the one that DOES attack you. geez! Or find another way to make friends and instigate war decs. this is truly pathetic.
Begone troll. You don't make sense. |

If you're that starved for attention, just send out random duel demands and look which AFK-miner forgot to check that checkbox. After you got the first dozen barges, you win EVE. I am not starved for attention. I just want to have some can flipping fun. Random duels or AFK miners wont do it. |

Just call duelling "can flipping", case closed.  Dueling and can flipping are totally different. |

So you don't even play in high sec which pretty much means you know anything about can flipping. So why were you saying "nothing has changed"?
Stop posting here nullbear. |

So you don't even play in high sec which pretty much means you know anything about can flipping. So why were you saying "nothing has changed"? Stop posting here nullbear. Ha, please. I've been everywhere and done damn near everything there is to do in EvE. I've likely forgotten more about this game then you have learned, and more than once I've changed "career tracks" because I felt the one I was on got nerfed too hard. I adapted. I damn well didn't come onto forums and start shiptoasting and *****ing about how bad a particular nerf was trying to get it changed back, especially not almost 2 years after the change. Deal with it, or Get The **** Out. You had a chance to say something two years ago. This is too little, too late, and only makes you look like a whiny little carebear. What's the difference between a nullbear and a carebear? A nullbear looks at the situation and thinks, "How can I turn this to my advantage?" A carebear posts a whiny thread on forums in an effort to get CCP to make changes. Wanna guess which you are? How about you be on topic or get?
And what's this....Bears and thinking? haha. Nullbear or carebear they all the same bearsef. |

Don't get me wrong, i don't care how you play, but if you are complaining about lack of pvp i'm giving some options if you don't want to travel 20 jumps to find a fight.
Thanks for suggestions, I will try that out.
With regards to this thread, I am not complaining about lack of PVP. I am just asking for can flipping to be as it was few years ago. The fun it used to be...I seriously miss it Support Can flipping.

I mine, I can flip if people are dumb enough to jetcan mine near me. Why bother mining when I can steal it from another miner. Can flipping will not get changed back, it was a terrible mechanic then and would still be now.
Stealing the can is possible. But the fun part was in making miner do something brave or stupid to get it back. Unfortunately that doesn't happen anymore. Support Can flipping.

Pretty much the story of highsec. You steal it, jettison it and then shoot it. Oh boy that make 'em mad. See you're not even stealing it, you're just wantonly destroying it - just because. Also yeah, jetcan mining died with the barge rebalance And thirdly - OP seriously needs to toughen up some.
I lost plenty of ships before too and even then it was fun. But now it doesn't feel the same anymore .

What we are saying is that you have to do what everyone else in this game needs to do, adapt to nerfs. Stop crying trying to get two year old changes undone.
