Well the thing is, you were using free ships to trigger a defense mechanism, so you were spending nothing yourself while dealing lots of damage. While it was a clever and brutally effective tactic, I can see why CCP told you to cut it out.
Attempting a real raid on the POS, if it's worth it or possible, could help. Or, war dec them and declare your terms as them leaving system. Pod their haulers until the war is settled. War deccing for territory can't really be petitioned...

Originally by: Detrevni executioner with an MWD and a cap battery can attain pretty crazy speeds for a long time.
That might work.
also for a cheap alternative: Shuttles. Buy a few hundred and suicide those. They cost money so CCP shouln't have any beef with it... thoguh I could be wrong.
True but I think they had an issue with the fact that he wasn't attacking to do damage, just to get it to go into reinforced mode. Thus, potential exploit.

Also, not knowing much about POSes, could a sniper battleship/BC potentially destroy any of the structures inside? If so you could try balancing a tank with range to snipe out the control tower.

Originally by: Savesti Kyrsst You can just about tank one cruise battery in a shuttle. I think finding something to tank three shouldn't be too hard 
Yeah but shuttles have a really good tank that's why you assign fighters to them.

Dammit, Jex. You beat me to it.
*shakes tiny fist*
Come on, you have to remember who you're dealing with here.

Originally by: Indigo Emerald It is an amarr med tower with 3 cruise launchers awarpdisruptor battery a web battery and research stations. It is in Maalna VI moon 11. There is only 3 people in my corp we do not have the resources to blow it up. So if any of u fine ladies and gentleman get bored come on by. I would love the company because the industrial corp does not talk to me anymore .
God, you'd barely have to breath at that thing to kill it. My *small* POS has a much better defense than that.
I have found one even weaker...no web...I am going to destroy it if I can, but I'm not really sure how as I know nothing about POSes.

You know, Indigo, I'm not really liking the personality of this corp you're dealing with.
I'd fund hiring some mercs to kill their POS and drive them out with repeated poddings, if it were worth my ISK. When I get that lucky loot that hopefully lies in my future I might consider it.

If BoB having all of its members warping into a system all at once to lag out their enemies within said system isn't going to get whacked by CCP, why would this?
Cause they're BoB, and these guys are not.
I'm going to check how far away this sytem is when I next log on...I have a hankering for some ceptoring without worrying about INFOD/EST/5thc/NMTZ around every corner...and haulers sound like a good target.

Originally by: Lithalnas Is it allowed? yes, but only if you do it without using noobships.
Supposing noob ships were a tactical addition to a dread fleet...you know, for fighting off any resistance fleet that arrived...
