Ok, so while I was around on my pos, there was someone, he said that this area belong to their corps, and etc etc I don't really get it because his english was very weird. In short he along with his corp threatened to erase my POS. My POS is located on Caldari Low Sec 0.4 near Uedama.

I wanted a peace solution and asked if they are willing to let it go for a fee, im not sure whether he understand what i was talking about or no.

I suppose no, some mins later he came, along with another guy 2 of them riding Cynabal or something I'm not sure. Came, harras my POS, and warp away. Came, harras my POS, and warp away. Came, harras my POS, and warp away. Did that for about 4 times. I have 2 warp disruptor.

They are in a 21 manned corps,

Anyone here can help me? Any merc I can hire? I don't really know how much does it takes for defending this small pos. All I want is just a piece of starbase where I can conduct my research. This is my second POS I've set up, had to move from previous space because it was too far away.

What I just don't understand is, there's many other POS on this system, some of them that I noticed even deserted, abandoned by its previous owner and had no bubbles, all of those POS why me?!?!?! seriously Straight

These generally mean people will stick around. That's kinda the idea. If you take the warp disruptors off, they'll be able to warp away and will therefore leave you alone.

But I've turned those 2 on, maybe they were out of range?

If CCP allows scamming, I'm sure cyber-bullying/griefing are allowed too.

===============

Aside of that, any merc for hire? I bought several plex, I have no problem paying merc corp to help me defending my pos or to teach them a lesson

Take down small POS, Put up large with lots and lots of small guns and disruptors. Grab friends who can man POS guns. Wait for pirate/scammer to come back. Watch hilarity ensue.

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

Because of the ease at which small towers can be beaten down, along with the lack of CPU/power, I don't recommend small towers for anything other than disposable moon-mining or disposable reactions.

It's time to relocate.

First off, you just told everyone in C&P (a wretched hive of scum and villiany) that you have isk in the form of plex, a small tower in low sec, and can be extorted. That was not a wise action. I would expect others will begin to harass you now.

Additionally, get out of low sec. If you can afford a pos, you can purchase a corp that has high enough standings to.anchor in hi sec. Any aggressor will have to declare war, giving you time to take down your pos.

Good luck!

Do you have any other defenses than just the two warp disrupters? Any guns or ECM? Neuts?

They're probably picking on you because they believe you're an easy target.

Assuming that is where it really is, and its not a trap, then why would you give away the location of your POS on the forums?

That's like ringing the dinner bell.

Everything in EVE is a trap.

And if it isn't, it's your job to make it a trap...:)

Look either he is baiting or setting himself up for more greifing. Either way, the proper thing to do is get in system with a bomber, ready to get in on as many of the kills as possible, because last time there was a fight in low sec over a tower... Well... Drool. Lol
