I would like to see the ability to smartbomb jettisoned containers added to the game.

so let me get this straight:

you are mad... because you cannot gank/grief a miner easily enough for your tastes? One would think there are plenty of ways to effectively do that- isnt that what the new order does every day?

while the idea is cool, it doesnt exist for a reason

How about special probes that only seek out cloaked ships? Twisted

This fella has ~28 cans bundles together right now. About 150mil in ice.

But it's okay for miners to leave 28 cans of ice in space undefended and without consequence.

Must be a very popular word, "metagame" but you've almost certainly used it incorrectly here.

there is a consequence, you could steal the loot in the cans, you risk getting flagged so he can shoot you, but meh. if hes afk or not paying attention you get his hard mined ice.

Pretty sure there's a loot button on those containers. There's probably also a fire button on your turrets somewhere..

shooting incurs the wrath of concord.

Although flipping the cans is possible.

One of the bitter points of a good bittervet is the realisation that all those SP don't really do much, and that the newbie is having much more fun with what little he has. - Tippia

CONCORD will also avenge containers destroyed by smartbombs (as OP wants, if it were possible). It's just that the ratio of destroyed cans to Concorded ships will be much larger. So essentially OP wants an EASY button.

In which case I want a mining smartbomb that crushes several rocks and deposits them into containers for me. Only seems fair..

If you can't figure out how to take it from them you do not deserve it. Sound familiar?

If you can not defend it you do not deserve it.

Maybe that rings a bell.

Buck up and stop with your tears. It is not becoming. I expect it from High Sec Bear's not from 'griefers'.

EDIT: Oh, OP's main spotted...maybe.

EDIT 2: IT is also funny that you pick that part of my quote to address and not the point where there are ways to make the player suffer consequences, you are just too lazy and want the quick fix.....kind of like High Sec Bear's

Just drop a Bomb on them, done.

Oh wait, highsec.

(One time, there was a camper in our nullsec system that was so useless he resorted to bombing cans in a slealth bomber to try and get some kind of reaction).
