Reshipping via orca, carrier etc while agressed is only considered an exploit if you do it to avoid concord. Verified by several ccp dudes.

Seen this tactic being used a lot lately. Best advice would be to try to bump either the aggressed ship or the orca out of range so that the ship cant be stored. Otherwise, working as intended it seems!

Tactics like these are allowed.

Possibility to make things like this is good for eve, i see that knowing how game mechanics work and use them to get even lame advantage is good thing.

Only people who does not know how game works are going to die to guys who use tricks like that.

The people who do this aren't looking at it as PVP... they see it as a farming opportunity for killmails, comedy, and loot. Same as smart bombing BSs and stuff of that nature.

And docking your expensive Legion in an Orca instead of letting it die to an aggressed fleet isn't cowardly, its economical and smart.

Pirates need a source of income just like anyone else in this game... these guys are just smart enough to use game mechanics to their advantage and farm incoming traffic. Would you say running missions is cowardly? How about playing the market? Personally, I find missions, markets, and gate camping all too boring to spend my time doing them.

Orca camping isn't an attempt at PVP or a search for a gf, its income.




Anyway, I don't do this. Maybe thats why I'm always broke... :P

I'm back!
