Why do you take salvage from missions, taking income from people?

What you do is immoral and low.

You should have kill rights on people that take salvage from wrecks you or your corp owns because it is the same as taking the loot out of the wreck, but using a module to do it.
Well see, there's your problem.

Wrecks aren't owned by anyone and are considered free-for-all and first come first serve. Concord places no value in floating debris and thus does not deem it theft. Those game mechanics are intended to be the way they are by the devs as they've personally stated numerous times on the forums.

OP, if you don't like it, bring a friend to salvage for you and work out how much "income" you are willing to share, or do it yourself.

When I mission I bring my Noctis alt and park it at/near the mission. Ninja salvagers show up and leave very quickly when they realize they can't compete. In fact the only ones who bother are the ones who are not after salvage but rather trying to get me to attack them so the rest of their corp can gank me.

TL;DR: shut up and play EVE properly.

Oh Jesus Fing Christ! Look, ninjaing has been nerfed to hell with the noctis and it's what....60km tractors now? If you're losing your loot to ninjas I'd say you're doing it wrong. HTFU and grow a pair.

Don't ban me, bro!

Shoot the wrecks when they approach, they will leave you sooner or later. I've experienced this both ways. And don't run missions in Motsu or other major mission hubs.

Odyssey: Repacking in POS hangars for modules +1,  but please for other stuff too, especially containers. Make containers openable in POS hangars.

This would improve the lives of 90% of Ninja salvagers.

More time spent flashy red to people means more people will take the bait and means more Marauders to ransom.

Now c'mon... Really?

Now that there quality of agents is removed and you can use ANY l4 agents for the same effect, this problem should really be practically non-existant. Just salvage as you go or if you can't do that - just warp out when a salvager comes in - ther's a good chance the rats in a l4 will aplha him.

The same old whine is still old, but new subscribers full of butt-hurt log on everyday.

By the way, since we're already talking, do you want to buy a rifter? I've got the cheapest rifters in Metropolis. If you can find a cheaper rifter, buy it!

I just wish my "visitors" would actually salvage.
Usually they only go flashy and soon leave once I blue the wrecks.....

Go ahead and try and back your assertions up with proof also.

No? Yeah, that's what I thought...
Just read the forum. You'll come across plenty of "stop crying over internet pixels posts".

I've never seen a "I used to to love risk but now I want it removed from the game" post.

It's just pathetically sad that people are still complaining about ninjas when the noctis can reach the entire breathe of the field without moving.
