Putting them in the wormhole I'm camping and renaming them to send messages to the inhabitants... "Give me what I want and I'll go away." They haven't paid yet, but its really funny. They are so mad. They reinforce them. But the stupid things have a 48h timer. Pick it up.. put it back down again. Repeat.

Deploy outside 0.0 NPC station where a major alliance lives.
Rename "Sovereignty Blockade Unit" or "Territorial Claim Unit".

He wants them to scan it.

Because one day, he will be sitting in a cloaky T3 or Force Recon and pop the guy(s) that show up to slap the depot into reinforce mode..:)

Everything in EVE is a trap.

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

The fact that I am not a gazillionaire Gallente aristocrat with the sexual capacity of a rutting rhino is a constant niggle.

Honestly though I drop mobile depots in mission systems and forgot to pick them up

When did Crime & Punishment become the mercenary employment board?

Drop them in lowsec or lower, with names like 'XxxPiratexxX's Vindicator'. Confuses people whose D-scan detects them

I cane here expecting to see some story about awoxing. I love my corp and haven't been in hs for some time but the first thing I thought of was using one to avoid having to dock and get booted from a corp that you are awoxing. Use it for reps, boosters, ammo, dumping their bodies, changing proteus subs & armor hardeners to fit whatever carebear crap is going on, etc...

This is brilliant.

Trust someone like Malcolm to think up such pure hilarity. I must try this myself.

It was more of a group effort by the New Order bros currently tormenting the inhabitants of a certain wh even though we all know NO is too chicken to go to wormholes.

They will become so common that people wont bother scanning them down soon, then they will be truly useful. As it is you can spam them in a system and make a mobile repair shop for a region that is too tedious for the locals to scan down and deal with, provided you pop 10 or so down in a system.
