I do believe speaking between me and everyone else who rely on incursions for isk do not like it when ISN or any other community come in and contest your site you are doing, or abandon the site to come back when someone else is almost done doing the site you/they half finished, and waste everyone's time.

I feel this should be changed so if you leave the site you forfeit the isk and it can be done with anyone and they get the payout regardless if the opposing community comes back in to GC your site they almost completed (Regardless of the past wrecks they did)

- sites should be locked to whoever's fleet is inside so that noone else can come in and ruin your day of countless ammo spending..Evil

don't want to contest it, then you never really wanted it in the first place.

no. instances go against the core of eve.

If you finish another site someone started while they are at a different site (which they may or may not intend to come back to) they don't get any ISK/LP for that site.

Only the fleet in the site gets payout at time of completion. If it's a contest then whoever does more damage wins the payout.

What's not fair about this?

lolno.

The Incursion systems was specifically designed around players being in competition with other other. Either deal more damage than your competitors or figure out a way maximize your overall damage with fewer numbers.

The incursion community is ******* toxic, but instances are not going to solve anything at all.

If you don't want people in the same site as you*, shoot them. If you can't shoot them, move to a system where you can.

* I refuse to call it "your" site, because it isn't.

We need Incursion rebalancing as we need SOV changes, but we need smart ideas, with high rewards and even more risks.

Perhaps Incursion sites should give Fleet vs Fleet wardec-like mechanics. Let everyone "contest" the site in proper Eve fashion!

*This was posted because the thought of extremely expensive ships fighting against each other while an NPC swarm closes in sounds epic. I know it's not going to happen and I already know most incursion runners are against the idea so just take a deep breath and let the ragepost go.

People have been Concorded in sites because they shot at members of another fleet, also cap buddies that had their safety on red, yes it's hilarious when it happens.

People do this more than you might think w/o needing any help at all.

OP should feel embarrassed for even Posting such a WoW like idea.

What next?... "If My aggression setting is set to green, people shouldn't be able to attack me in empire".

Personally, I found contesting to be the fun part about running incursions.
