Now im not saying im going to take up this occuption, but everyone whose seems to be talking about this. I want in on the pie, but how is ore theft possible? Im a noob so havent much clue as to how its done.I thought the ore was deposited in secure containers. If this is done, how do you get the ore?

Edited by: Vanadis Njordsdottir on 05/08/2004 03:40:03 Hi If it is deposit in secure cans then you cant get it. However using secure cans arent efficient so most use jetted cans.
Stealing the ore is easy. Use a ship ( preferably an industrial) and go to a roidfield. Then approach a jetted can and pick up the ore. The owner will probably not shoot you since his ship then will be destroyed by the police. That is the easy part.
The hard part is to find a can that is worth picking. And yes use an alt because you will be hated. Its a game sure but emotions are real

TBH I think ore theft is a low income way to play the game, you will earn far far more doing stuff like mining / killing for bounty / pirateing (if that's your bag) / producing.
All the big name ore theives I've come across like Vogon etc. are obviously role-playing, doing it more for the fun than the money.

Ore removal (I hate the word theft) is a low income profession when compared to say mining. If you choose this method of income generation you will do ok but won't get rich overnight. So why do I do it? well like Codefreeze said its role playing. I sacrifice making maximum money in order to provide entertainment for the mining community....I like to give value for money...

lol, I'm sure they could fill the imicus's hold from legitimately mining, at least as many times as they could in the time it took to find and steal from someone else...

Excuse me?!?! I have advanced to the rank of 'noobling' thankyou very much! 
Yer just jealous of my incredible, stupendous, incredibulous Eve powers!
And I have a new solution to the ore thief problem. CCP should remove mining from the game entirely. Then there would be no miners to jetcan mine, no thieves to steal it, and again no miners to whine about getting stolen from, and again no thieves to start smacking back, and again no miners to start making threats, and again no ore thieves to....
