EVE New Citizens Q&A

Kill him, and pod him then kick.

I'd love to help you by killing sadly not a corp jumper, but your best bet is either hire someone to kill him or petition it sorry man.

Currently the situation seems to be that you're besieged.

So, as another option, why not go to war with some actual PVP or merc corporation, put a big bounty on his head, and put his character name in your corp description or your CEO's Bio so your war enemies find him easily. Word it as if his character declares he's the boss and all that, and insult somebody's mother in his name.

It won't worsen your situation more than it already is, but it will worsen his.

Bonus if you have private talks with the CEO of the corp you're wardeccing, promising extra rewards once he's killed repeatedly. And, while the war is going on, you may even learn a thing or two about PVP.

EDIT: Or, join the corp to faction warfare. Same deal, except you can end it whenever you want, by leaving. Lots of people will be valid war targets against him.

Oh you'll be surprised what a determined enemy can do.

He's gotta decloak to attack you, right? So be bait, have your allies wait ready to pounce. If he's just chatting in channels you can block him I believe.

I would totally do it. That cloaked ship he's flying in is expensive. Show some balls and make his setup less fun, and he'll go away. Sometimes all it takes is the threat of war, and not the actual thing.

Well he knows who all of you are and when you're on.

Enemy militia, lots of unknowns for him. Block him on the channels and undock now and then be bait in systems with war enemies.

EvE encourages this sort of gameplay. While he might be being a bit of an ass, you aren't going to get any admin/GM intervention, it's a part of the game. I agree that not being able to kick someone who isn't docked up is a bit annoying though. You guys made the mistake of letting him into your corp, and now you need to deal with the consequences.

As others have mentioned, fight fire with fire. There are plenty of people who would be willing to kill the guy for you, and if new players like you can find him while he's cloaked up, an experienced player should have no issues. if he always cloaks in the same spot it's even easier, just bookmark that spot and then warp your bounty hunter to it.

If he cloaks in different spots, scan him down. There's always a way to find and kill him, such is the nature of EvE. He's probably AFK a huge amount of the time as well, so it should be a relatively easy find and kill.

If he only attacks when there's a few of you on, you could do like he does and just AFK instead of logging off. It's not perfect, but it makes it harder for him to tell who's actually online. Also, make another chat instead of corp chat, and invite everyone except him to it, so he can't tell by chat who's AFK.

Wait till he logs off.

You can kick people who are logged of no matter where they are.

Also, the ability to kick people only while docked is for grief reasons.
If that rule is lifted you could kick any corp member while you are with him on grid etc to evade for instance a wardec.
This would be highly exploited as anybody with a war target on him would just leave corp / ask to be kicked to safe the ship and see people get shot down by CONCORD cause you are no longer a war target at that second.

You have 3 options as far as I can tell.


If he trolls chat:
1) Everyone in corp/alliance mutes the player, and ignores him.

If he attacks people:
2) Someone gets in a bait ship like a skiff, and you do a logon trap. A few people in decent pvp ships logoff in the belt, tanked skiff has tackle. Only 1 or 2 people are online, he tackles skiff, skiff tackles him, login, kill, boot. Problem solved.

3) Create another corp, put a single pvper in it, and wardec it. Cost will be very low. Declare the war mutual, then put some pvpers in that corp. This way, your annoying guy can't tell how many people in your corp/alliance are online. Then do the same trick with the skiff.

If he isn't attacking people, and is just sitting in a 1.0 system, really, just have everyone mute/block him. Feel free to send him an evemail informing him you have done so. As soon as he realizes noone can hear him trolling, he will leave.

If you're seriously asking why it works this way instead of just randomly whining, it's because if you could kick people from corp in space you could pull all sorts of trollish griefing with docking rights in sovereignty space. Your situation is not considered a priority because, frankly, it's being maintained more by your own unwillingness to invest real effort in resolving the situation (sell off some kill rights to mercenaries, set up bait and a sting, have some mercs declare mutual war on your corp specifically to deal with him, etc) than anything he's doing.
