OK .. ccp need to step in !!!!!!! Stop groups using newbie ship to stop you from jumping in a freighter ,if you look at the eve kill broads there are about 4 freighter a day That are kill .Alot of them you see that newdie ships with 0.0dmg in the kill mail
There should be a out cry i love to pvp but this is n't not cool .There is no way the freighter has no way to fight back .There are ton of thing on youtube now about how there are doing it .I belive ccp should look back in all the freighter kill mails if they see the newdie in there
they should give the ship and the loot to the ploit .To me this is like pos bowling there at the point of breaking the rule but not there yet .CCP i would like you all to look back in the e-mails see the rookie ships there and ask is this right

1/10. The illiteracy was OTT, as were the excessive exclamation marks. Will re-grade you depending on how many bites you get.

If only there was a corp available to everyone that couldn't be war dec'd like a corp run by NPCs or something. Maybe CCP could also implement a ship capable of keeping up with a freighter and providing protection against OP solo rookie ships.

It's not CCP's problem, lazy/greedy pilots have brought it upon themselves, they should sort it out themselves.

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

How does this work?

Does the freighter get the WEAPONS-flag set when a Rookie ship shoots at it, thus preventing the freighter from jumping?

Loss is meaningful. Therefore is the loss of meaning likewise meaningful. It is the source of all trolling.

No. What usually happens is a neutral alt flying a procurer, ibis, (edit: or blackbird) or otherwise innocent enough ship, tackles a jump freighter, piloted by someone involved in a war dec, that's just entering highsec. The idea is to have wartargets log on and resume tackle before the neutral alt dies.

Some people manage to kill dozens of jump freighters a month, with that tool playing a large part.

I'm more interested in the remarkably common lowsec jump freighter kills. Those I just don't understand.

Ah, gotcha.

So it is like a kid, which drank too much and cannot hold its bladder, runs, gets held off by a person of authority (i.e. the head teacher) and wets itself before reaching the toilet...

One of the thing i see that going to happen with all the freighter kills . Plex are going to go higher and higher this way the some are start to rule over the market . I do think this is something that CCP need to look at what going to happen when no will bring a freighter out the market is going to hurt because of it . ore price will go up and then will the plex and ship and so on and so on .

And so on and so on, and in the end does everyone get more ISKs for their stuff, because all the prices have gone up. Only you go empty, because you have lost your stuff and got nothing to sell.

The fact that a newbie ship can bump a freighter does seem unfair, but nothing stops players to use a bigger ship and so the problem is only marginal. How do you want to fix it?

Bumping is legit when it has a purpose beyond just annoying someone. I've kept ships bumped for friends before. A while back an associate had a battleship tackled in a mission space, but his cruiser couldn't break its tank. I showed up and kept it bumped for 60 seconds while he let his aggression cool off and jumped into a Hurricane so he could get the kill. That was entertaining.

You already have the tools to solve this problem. Suicide ganks. In fact, if it's a noob ship you could probably even get his pod before getting CONCORDED.

Too bad you guys have been screaming for suicide gank nerfs for years, or it would be easier on you.

I think there's a saying here about lying in beds that applies.
