Edited by: Had Enough on 06/05/2008 18:53:20 The wrecks don't belong to anyone thus there is no theft, the act of salvaging creates the salvage.
Candidates please do some research on real world ship wrecks and salvage rights. CCP made it this way it wasn't an accident. |

Originally by: Tchell Dahhn Thank you. That is an excellent point.
(Are you running, by the way? You seem like someone with opinions that I could support.)

I'm not running no I just can't believe the candidates response to your question. |

Originally by: zoolkhan And otehrwise it is usually the first on the scene who claims the right.
Exactly, the first person who gets to the wreck and salvages it. I could go out into the real world right now in a speed boat dive down into the sea find a wreck and then go back to shore get my salvage boat but on the way back someone else salvaged it.

Maybe lets not? Everything in Eve is based on "RL world stuff" from Ship types, Astronomy, Weapons etc. so why should salvaging be any different? If the mission runner wants to go for max DPS and have all weapons on his highs then he forfeits the salvage if a ninja salvager enters the mission.
Some will leave if asked to, some will split it with the mission runner, some will just take what they can in true scavenger fashion.
Lets be real about it, it rarely ever happens to most mission runners if it happens to them at all and people in the Mission Hubs are causing severe lag to these systems if they want to avoid it they have many options,
1. Don't mission in the over populated mission hubs.
2. Bring a salvager friend this is a multiplayer game.
3. Take off one or two Turret/Launcher and fit a Salvage/Tractor.
Someone I know apparently likes to loot the mission runners loot in her little frigate and then when the mission runner blows up her harmless little ship she comes back in a battlecruiser and teaches them a lesson in pain hehe. Just wait for the fun and games if salvaging ever gets made an agroable offence, there will be very few ninja salvagers then, only people wanting to destroy those expensive faction fitted Caldari Navy Ravens. |

Exactly, theft in Real Life has consequences.
Thanks for proving my point
Read the first part again. If you can actually comprehend what I am saying.
In case you missed it.

Originally by: Ben Nato You pass the wreck of a car at the side of the road. Car's had an accident and can't go anywhere and you salvage it what happens?
You go to a junkyard and you take wrecks there, what happens?
You see burnt out cars at the side of the road and you take from them, what happens?
Can someone please give me an example where 'taking' from or taking the entire wreck doesn't result in you being arrested or 'flagged' for arrest? No you can. The only people who are against this idea are the thieves and people who don't salvage full stop.
Salvaging someone else's wreck is fun and it adds to the knowledge that you're ****ing someone off with them not being able to do a thing about it. Fun for the salvager, not fun for the person who is having to watch there and see the theft.
Tchell you can claim what you want about real life but you lose the argument because in real life you would get arrested 'salvaging' even your own wreck after an accident so the idea that salvage is public domain isn't funny and is pretty ignorant.
Since when did people go around salvaging car wrecks? Try looking into ship wrecks and salvage rights. -
