I have read alot of posts about how "chainspawning" is taken out from the game. This is not true. Chainspawning is still with us.
This is a small, and easy, tutorial.
1. Find yourself a spawn in a belt. 2. Keep one (1) of the rats around (the "smallest" one is prefered). 3. Kill all the new rats that spawn and keep your little pet with you.
The friends to your "pet rat" will respawn faster and faster over time. After 3-4 "waves" of rats, you will most definetly notice a differance. Just remember to keep your "pet rat" around.
When you want to close the spawn, just kill all the rats, including your pet. Then the chain will be broken and you can get the swag.
I hope this small and easy guide will help you make some chainspawning going, and enlighten some of you that in most cases, you have to work to get where you want...
A little heads up: Try to avoid using drones. Your pet rat will be a target for them sooner or later.
Enjoy!

note: If you want to chain BSs, the "friend" has to be part of a BS spawn. Eg 3 BSs 5 cruiser and a frig
keep the frig alive and you will get the same 3 bss and 5 cruisers again.

Indeed. That was my second point, but thanks for the clarification.
I allso like to add that this can be done in gangs,not just solo. Just keep your pet around, and the rats will keep returning for more.

It can take a while, but rest assured, it's possible to chain. Out in Aridia you can chain 1x65 2x45 4x10 all the time, and in deep 0.0 it's easier to do with larger ships. The more ships in the spawn, the faster the spawn will chain. -----------------------------------------------

I doubt that is a trigger.
Belt jump until you find a good spawn and follow my guide and you will have your hands full in a while.
To get the spawn really going it takes close to two hours or so...

30 mins.
All you have to wait, though when they first changed with the cruiser invasion thingy, i was getting them after 10 mins.
But all thats gone out of the window now. There are better spawns, but there very rare. ------------------------

Actually the size of the spawn is an issue... or atleast was.
Not value but number, dont bother try start up a chain if there are few rats, I never tries with any number lower than 6.

Pepare for serious lag when you have 1000 loot containers laying. It can take 30 seconds when someone jumps into the belt before they are able to shoot anything.

Irony: Your corpmate with the task to help you clean cans, decide to kill the Pet-Rat with the words "But hes shooting you!".
I'm in a Scorp with about 7.8k shield, Themral and Kinetic hardener online and one 10k rat hammering trying to get the shield down. Not likley to do any armor dmg in the next year or so... 
Oh well... After some firm teaching, I went after the next spawn 20 minutes later.

That sucks but is funny at the same time
BTW: like your sig, just another ccp randomiser. Was popping cans around my base, when i hit one it made a glancing shot for 750dmg...with a neutron blaster 2 secs later i had a perfect stike for 200

Is this working again!?
Man.. i never thought they would put the farming of npc's back. That was my line of work, and now will be my line of work yet again! Too bad i dont have a really good ship anymore (so close to being in the EVE gutter overhere).

I think it is a trigger. CCP wanted to nerf Ninja Mining. Perhaps it is only a trigger in deep space but I know when I try and mine, say, Crokite rats now seem to appear almost like clockwork within 3 minutes of starting mining. Maybe you need a jet can out too...I dunno but they definitely seem to come fast now.
Of course I may just have the Colossal Bad Luck thing .

I will have to try that out then... Get a corpmate to trigger a spawn an just hammer away...
About my sig: The first one (425mm Railgun I) is a BS class rail.
The second one (Modal Light Neutron Particle Accelerator I) is a named Frigate class Netron Blaster.
They are not in any way associated, exept that I'm boasting with them.

i really can't say that this has worked for me - been sitting here in a belt for an hour now with a Rat tailing me, orbiting me and genrally trying to get in my pants for over an hour and nothing has re-spawned!

I guess thats just bad luck... It has worked every time for me so far. But the first "respawn" can be reeeeally slow some times. But a whole hour... Sounds alot.

I've observed this at bars with guys and chicks. The girls will chop off the weiner of all but the least attractive guy, who they'll keep around... even though he keeps trying to get in their pants. Right before each kill, each of the guys will jettison at least one mixed drink of varying quality. The guys will keep coming back for more, though, because they're drunk too and they see that really fugly guy surrounded by hot chicks...
