Ok. Here is a picture...
I fly on autopilot in 1.0 system, getting cargo scanned by frigate. And killed by dominix. Easy to kill bumped to prevent from warping away, drones and blasters... He was killed by CONCORD, but i die first.
Now we getting more. While you trying to get new ship, yours getting salvaged, so no marking for stealing loot, and cargo stolen. And agressors loot also retrieved by his gang.
The End.

Ok.
Sounds like a perfectly legitimate game mechanic.
CONCORD PUNISHED the offender. Offender has friends they picked up the loot.
Moving on....

No exploit. Thats how it is. The price for him attacking you was losing his ship. He lost his ship. You lost your cargo. Get used to it, because theres a huge amount of money to be made in suicide ganking.

Sorry for you Ni'ka. I feel your loss :(
In my opinion, I say it is a legal exploit because they are killed by Concord but you still lose your stuffs and loot. --------- Technica impendi Caldari generis. Pax Caldaria!

Don't tell me about suicide kills. I know all about it. The problem is that if you SALVAGE someone ship first, and than take his cargo, you not recieving any penalties for stealing stuff in highsec!

Dont fly afk with a cargo worth killing you for.
The only part of the equation thats not logical is the pirate gets reimbursed for his ship after concorde kills him. Apart from that? see my first comment. |

It's not an exploit. It is a bit meta-gamey when they use newbie corp alts though.
There's also an ongoing campaign to have insurance not pay out if you're popped by Concord.
That probably just pushes the point at which it's worthwhile popping you upwards a bit which may or may not be a "fix".
Quote: I fly on autopilot in 1.0 system
Don't.
Everyone and their dog locking you in and around tradehubs (some of them use passive targeters but they still probably need to run sensorboosters) should be the giveaway here.
If your cargo is worth their loss for blowing you up then you are definitely at risk.
The number of items probably plays a part since I think each item has it's own % chance of getting blown up so ten items worth 20m is probably > one item worth 220m.
There's also the opportunity cost involved in ganking a specific ship as opposed to the next one along which might have a more valuable cargo since I assume it takes a certain amount of time to get another ship to their camp spot.

Doesnt the can that drops after salvaging retain the same ownership as the wreck had before? If so looting will give the normal penalty.

Or it was intentional. Why else would they have a system like this LOL. That and you used to not even nessissarily lose your ship to concord in early EVE. At one point even a good frigate setup could tank them long enough to dock.

No Jenny, they did it this way intentionally, otherwise there wouldn't be varying response times depending on the security level of the system. We also have several developers who have commented on the fact that they did it intentionally.
Just because you don't like it doesn't make it accidental.
Also, by definition there is no such thing as a legal exploit. ---------------- Tarminic - 29 million SP in Forum Warfare Originally by: CCP Wrangler Booooo!!! Tarminic sux!!!

Say, if I put my cargo in a secure container and password lock it, the pirates aren't able to open it, even if they scoop it from my wreck, right? So if I am correct, this should be the solution for all highsec suicide ganking.

You are allowed to do that, but its rather pointless unless you got a big grudge against that player. If the hauler gets frustrated he should ask for help to fight back.

1. Don't autopilot with high dollar loads. 2. Even in high-sec, fit sort of tank on that hauler so CONCORD has time to drop the donuts and get out there. 3. CONCORD provides consequences for offenders, not safety. 4. Read #1 again. _______________________________

Sounds odd and not intended. So yes, I think this goes into the direction exploit. If I assume that stealing from a wreck flags you, stealing from the can after salvaging should do the same. ( I rarely pvp in empire and rarely get loot, so not 100% sure. lol )

Man, moaning about suicide ganking in high-sec is getting old.
It's THIS simple:
You autopilot ANYWHERE in the game with valuable cargo, you're taking a BIG risk. No matter where you are, you are NEVER safe, if your cargo is worth more than a battleship.
If you warp to zero in a freighter, YOU ARE STILL A TARGET. Move arount the most valuable stuff in small ships, the smaller the better, and cover the small ship's lows in warp stabs, (you'll have to remove your balls first).
1.0 is only safer than 0.0, not "safe".

The thread is clearly derailed.
The topic was whether or not suicide ganking is an exploit or not. It's legal game mechanics. And I'm clearly defining that people are sick of other people not listening when they're told three times a week on the forums that you're not safe in high-sec, it's called high security for a reason, not absolute security.
I'm not interested in whether people are flagged for stealing from a can, that just dropped from a salvaged ship, that just got suicide ganked, because someone thought that flying a freighter/industrial in high-sec meant they were safe, OR derailing the thread any further.
Pointless arguement, as CCP aren't interested in fixing the high-sec penalties to make suicide gankers jobs harder, as they're clearly happy with the way things are.
This isn't wow, there is no safe space, you are always a target, so use warp stabs, small ships and don't fly with expensive stuff bunched together.
If you can do one run back and forward in a freighter, you can do 6 runs back and forward in an Iteron V, with inertial stabilisers and warp core stabs in the lows.
You got lazy, and paid the price. How many more people are going to pay the price before people realise that high-sec's not safe?
If people stopped assuming that suicide ganking won't happen to them, they're the perfect target for a suicide gank.
The only way to STOP the suicide ganks is to stop giving them valuable targets. Get less lazy, and make sure that you to little and often runs, not everything you own in one go in an Obelisk. That's ASKING to get ganked.

Edited by: Tarron Sarek on 20/10/2007 16:44:01 The only problem is that the 'punishment' means nothing to the evildoer. With a revised insurance system that doesn't give payouts for being killed by Concord (which would require a smarter concord, of course), you could really say 'punished by concord'. Atm saying so is a bad joke. Very valuable goods will always be worth killing/dying for. But the current insurance system sets the bar too low.
Edit: oh, and I really wish people would read properly before posting..

How could getting killed in high sec be an exploit? Your NEVER safe, thats the beauty of EvE. Next time dont assume your safe on auto pilot and think EvE is hello kitty online. 1) Dont auto pilot 2) If your flying say a frieghter you should have an escort even if your in empire if you want to ensure safety. Just a few simple things that could have prevented your loss.

I must agree with Tarminic here. Repeatedly suicide ganking somebody is harrasment and a bannable offense.

Ah but it would be an exploit if the attacker is using a Domi and sets his drones out to attack, you tank till concord shows up, but they only kill the domi and not the drones, you were able to tank the Orge IIs till that point, but even after the Domi is gone the drones are still attacking. You cant say that because concord wont kill drones atm isnt an exploit.

Agreed, you should be flagged regardless of when you take the loot... either before or after salvage I thought. Just because you salvaged first I did'nt think made any diff.

Thanks! ^^
Originally by: Tarron Sarek and I really wish people would read properly before posting..
That @ me? I did read the thread, and it got derailed. And it's comments like yours that derailed it.
My post was directed at the original post, not the subsequent and off-topic discussion. And for a good reason. IF Ni'ka wasn't autopiloting in high-sec, with valuable cargo, then the high-sec suicide gank would never have happened. Regardless of the lax penalties for suicide gankers, if you give them a target, IT WILL STILL HAPPEN, and will always pay out for the gankers. Even if you remove the insurance payout for CONCORD suicide ganks, if the cargo's worth anything, it'll still happen.
Why are you people even debating the idea? This game is NOT SAFE, if you want to hide somewhere, go play another MMORPG. I don't care what sec space you're in, if you're not ready to lose it, don't undock in it. If you have to move ridiculous amounts of valuable cargo, do it in small loads, and short trips.
Changing the game dynamics regarding insurance payouts ISN'T GOING TO HAPPEN. Stop whining, and start getting SMARTER. If your cargo's worth anything, and you're not packing security, you're the perfect target for a suicide gank squad.
Fly SMART, fly safe. Otherwise you're toast.

Getting suicide ganked in hi sec sux, but, ur 2nd sentence starts with the words 'I fly on autopilot in 1.0 system' so don't expect a lot of sympathy.

Originally by: Abrazzar Say, if I put my cargo in a secure container and password lock it, the pirates aren't able to open it, even if they scoop it from my wreck, right? So if I am correct, this should be the solution for all highsec suicide ganking.
Doesnt work anymore, they repackage it, they can also scan you and see whats inside it. ------------------------------

My advice to Ni'ka: Follow your hauler with a cheap cruiser. Someone pops your hauler, you pop the wreck. Misery loves company.
What I DO wish is that kill rights were transferable or something, but that is neither here nor there.

A ship carrying something valuable enough to risk being suicided should have a full rack of WCS in the lows and shield extenders in the mids.

Originally by: Jenny Spitfire If it is allowed, why not you go hunt a single hauler pilot and take his stuffs until he doesn't log in anymore? I am sure it is very legal.
You are allowed to do that, but its rather pointless unless you got a big grudge against that player. If the hauler gets frustrated he should ask for help to fight back.
Actually you're not allowed to do that. Singling out a sprcific player repeatedly does fall under harassment, and will get you in trouble.

Originally by: Jinx Barker Ok.
Sounds like a perfectly legitimate game mechanic.
CONCORD PUNISHED the offender. Offender has friends they picked up the loot.
Moving on....
The only thing wrong with the picture is he (the suicide ganker) gets insurance. Suicide ganking is part of the game, but it shouldn't be artificially subsidized.

OP was just stupid not to leave instantly when getting scanned. He/she/it got what deserved.

Originally by: Ni'ka Don't tell me about suicide kills. I know all about it. The problem is that if you SALVAGE someone ship first, and than take his cargo, you not recieving any penalties for stealing stuff in highsec!
So... it seems like the problem was this, which pretty much looks like an exploit to me, and all there was in this thread is stupid anti-op bashing about things he(she) already knew...
