Edited by: Tiny Bronco on 20/12/2008 01:37:58 I have had abit of an incident with a can flipping corp, now they always tring to kill me and follwing me about all the time, really putting me off playing the game tbh, can't go anywhere without them following.
Is there anything that can be done about this? or iam just going to have to live with it.
As iam pretty new and they are all high sp players I have no chance against them at all
Not being whiney or anything, its just getting boring.
Cheers Ben

You could file a harrasment petition. But that can back fire if you used inappropriate language to get them after you. --
There are countless games in the world. There are at least as many ppl that dont like one or more rules of said games. That never stopped smart game designers from creating good games.

I doubt anyone would try to suicide gank a 20 day old character, so something tells me either they are not attacking you, or you are in lowsec. In which case, head back to highsec (.5 and above) systems.
As for the can flipping, I assume you are jet can mining. This is the way of EVE. Your best bet is to start using secure cargo cans and anchoring them at the belts you are mining at. Just requires one skill and very quick to learn. Once the can is anchored and password is set, they can't steal from it. Eventually they will get bored and move on.
As the previous poster mentioned, you could try a harassment petition, but without more details, it could be that they are within the limits of gameplay, so be specific when you file the petition. -------------------------------- CCP can patch away bugs, but they can't patch away stupidity. |

This.
If you're using secure cargo cans instead of jet canning, eventually they'll get bored and move on. There's not much they can do to you anymore without Concord intervening (assuming you're in high sec). ______________ Some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn. |

This, assuming it's high sec. If not, would you mind giving us a few more details? Such as what security status systems are you operating in? And did you give this corp a specific reason to go after you? This could range from smacktalking them to just providing a lot of easy kills if you're firing on them in hi-sec.

the only time I have seen an older corp chasing people around is when the 'victim' has done something to deserve it.
I would like to hear the whole story here...

was in 0.6 sec, they can filpped me, yeah i called them idiots, but was to be expected after how much ore they took.
So they war dec'd my corp, never got so much as close to killing any of us but followed us about and that.
But im sorry i got about 15jumps away from the space they are usually in and they turn up in local, always lock target on me in high sec and wait about, just annoyin more than anything.

Login whenever you're not playing and just go AFK. They'll soon get fed up.

our corp got chased for several months by another corp because one of its members ****ed up a flip by shooting the can, got concorded and then lied to his CEO, who wardec'd us for like three months. - PvPers always say "GB2WoW". the message is that EVE is hard, and people just need to deal with it. wasn't it funny how when nano's started making it hard for *them*, that all went out the window? |

Live with the consequences of your actions. You insulted a group of players that you shouldn't have. Fight back, hide, or drop to NPC corp.

Perchance the hardened ruffian population should develop thicker skins so that being called 'idiots' doesn't result in them pursuing a younger player in response to a fairly mild epithet.
Who should live the consequences of whose actions here? Surely the consequence, and for some I'm told the motivation for such actions is being insulted? Perhaps these 'pirates' are hoping to get some better invective out of their young adversary?

If you are not willing to drop to NPC corps (they can still flip you of course), then you are stuck unless perhaps you decide to move to the other side of the galaxy out of their normal hunting ground. It seems there was a guide somewhere for small/newbie corps when they get wardecced, but I can't locate it.
P.S. We've established he screwed up. Let's please stick to suggestions how to rectify this rather than moving into "Aha!-U-teh-suXorz-while-I've-never-made-a-mistake-in-my-life" recrimination mode.

AFKing works. It will make them bored out of their minds.
Follow this up with a sudden rush once they become complacent and they wil be off you in no time.
You grief them more doing nothing then they grief you waiting and doing nothing.
