Hello

I have been playing eve online for a few years now however recently me and my corp are experimenting with PVP ( anti-can flipping)

We have a problem.
I set up my fleet and deploy a can then just wait around for someone to steal from it.
The problem is when they do no one in my fleet can attack the can flipper (even If I am attacking him and vice verse).
I have experienced this problem before when I am not the bait and I can't do anything when one of my comrades is under fire.
I know its possible from the times when people stole from our mining operations, then the whole corp/fleet can fire.

I am grateful for anyone who can explain this and perhaps provide a solution to the problem.
Thanks in advance!

Being in a fleet doesnt include you in the aggro timers. The only way your whole group can get aggro from a flipped can is if theyre all in the corp that owns the can.

I used to have a clever sig but I lost it.

Feel free to give Shield/armour reps to the target tho ... just be aware you'll be able to be shot at then
