Non-corp'ed ship getting bounced out of pos after DT

Hi,

An out of corp friend of mine has a pilgrim docked in my wormhole pos-shield and if I don't board it to change the owner, it will be bounced after DT to around ~120 km off shield. His corp is in an alliance, but I've added his corp as corp contact with standing of +10.

The weird thing is that I have another out of corp friend (not in an alliance) that has 5-6 ships in here and there's never been a problem! His corp has been added as corp contact with standing +5.

Any ideas?

Probably to do the fact that the POS needs a password which your friend can't put in if he's just logged in.

No, this isn't concerning him logging on in a ship, forgetting to type in the password, but rather the ships he has left in the pos-shields being bounced out after DT.

Since there haven't been any response to this, i'm going to assume its a bug introduced in the latest patches and make a petition. I'll update the answer I get if it's not the standard petition responses, similarly to the one above this post.

under forcefield check the box that says, allow alliance.
If not, i dont think it will work.

Any ship left is a ship without ownership (unless the players logs out inside it of c.) hence it should be never bounced off from the forcefield no matter who owns it once it's inside.
Only exception from this rule is when you happen to change the password for the POS and even then it shouldn't fling the ships without someone boarding those first.

You should report the issue.

Have you tried resetting the password? That solves 99% of POS problems.

Confirming that this actually happens.

I've anchored a POS in wh and had my combat character join the indy guy inside. While waiting for combat guy to drop his roles so that I can have em both in the same corp and use pos facilities w/o hassle I logged off and then logged on again to fix some training queues. Well - once I land on grid my combat's guy drake and a hauler are doing their own thing, bounced off the POS. I've saved pos password and it functions (I can get inside the shield w/o problems).

What's even more fun, I have +10 standings to my indi corp (obviously) with combat guy and the corp he's in, but the pos guns start targeting him (I've set em to fire on folks with standings lower than 5). That was not happening before I logged off Ugh.
(This has been solved, seems that my POS-corp contacts did not include the other corp as +10 after all, hence the guns activated. However, even when this has been dealt with, bouncing problem persisted).

Judging from OP's comments, I think it might have to do with the fact that chars from out of POS-corps are in corporations that are members of an alliance?
