Pissed theres no nice way to say it

So....

Has anyone done a mission and have that person come along and start taking your savage? yea that happened to me and i shot the person because it IS THE SAME AS TAKING LOOT FROM THE CONTAINERS and theres no way to say its not because they are marked when the persons name when they are destroyed, this rule needs to be updated to the same as the Looting rule you take it you get the right to shot them without concord or someone getting killrights period.... When we are doing missions and fighting and playing YOUR! game we should be able to defend what we work for not be punished for doing so.

Most might think im just pissed Attention over nothing but its just how it needs to be, if any Dev wants to try and tell me otherwise please explain in detail now the wrecks can't be considered a looted item, The target the wreck and hit it with their savager and loot the contents into there cargo, its the same as someone coming along and looting a container... they target the container, they goto it and move the items out of the container and into their cargo hold. See my point ?

Because of this rule the person had a killright against me and opened it to everyone and caused me to lose a Navy Apoc and fits which was about 850million and i know most of you out there buy plex and whatever but some ppl actually enjoy the game and work for there ingame credits like missions... mining whatever right?

I think this is a bug and needs to be addressed and anyone being killed from the punishments from it should regain what they losted if they was in the right.

Who else agrees they should change this to the same as if someone looted your cantainer ?

Salvaging other peoples wrecks.... This is an intended game mechanic and is in no way an exploit. People salvaging your missions npcs or the player you just blew up are doing nothing wrong. The players are salvaging what is effectively floating rubbish in space and Concord places no value on this wreckage.
Eve is a harsh place you won't always have everything go your way, its a do or die world and people do what they can to get along. If salvaging some wreckage gets them a few more ISK someone will do it, it doesn't matter who just blew it up.

Players are still completely free to salvage other pilot wrecks at will ... and doing so is not considered as an exploit.

Per CCP Prism X :
CCP Prism X wrote:
Why is stealing salvage OK? It's not. It shouldn't even be possible to move an item from your cargo-hold / hanger to another persons cargo-hold / hanger without opening a trade window. Before the salvage enters those containers it is not considered your stuff by the server code. Hence it's not stealing.

****Per CCP Incognito :
CCP Incognito wrote:
Had a chat with some designers this evening.
Ninja salvaging is intended game play. It was always intended that the wrecks are public, the loot is private.
They do not see it as a problem if others salvage your wrecks.

(These quotes are kept handy for your convenience at Ironfleet.com.)

In short, the salvage isn't yours until you actually salvage it. (Some of the GM quote links no longer work, but the quotes are actual GM quotes, I've marked the ones that do work with ****)

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

Miners have same thoughts about the whole "can flipping" thing.

It's a basic game mechanic. It's not a bug and there is no way CCP will change it. EVE is designed to allow people to ruin your day if you let them.

You let them and they ruined your day. Now that you understand the mechanic you can adjust your play style.

Nope working as intended, salvaging is a recognised profession and any amount of hurfblurf on your part isn't going to change it.

You CAN flip cans without getting "in trouble". CONCORD will not care. It does give the person who owns the can the ability to fire on you (not that it does a miner any good).

The difference is that you OWN the can, NOT the wreck

Sorry to hear CONCORD savaged your ship. On the up-side, the nasty pirate probably got to salvage your wreck, so not all is lost.

edit: almost forgot!

The difference being there is a random chance with salvaging that you will get anything, whereas there is a definite chance of a can having items that are instantly stealable. Next time fly with some salvage drones, and go after whatever he goes after. At full skill, you have 5/1 chances of getting something before he does. Other items can increase that.

i could give a damn about your flowchart dude, this mech as you all call it a Profession needs to either be unable to do so without being fired on or just follow the same rules as a looted container.

It's NOT the same thing. I know you WANT it to be, but it is not. I understand that you want the wreck to belong to you, in the same way that a can does. However, the wreck does NOT belong to you. No matter how much you want it to, that will not change. It is a game mechanic that CCP has publicly supported over and over (see the above quotes).

I understand your pissed. You lost an expensive ship. That loss was rooted in not understanding the mechanic, its a hard way to learn something, but learn you did.

All that's missing from this post is "If CCP doesn't fix this I'm leaving Eve forevar!!!"

The game has been set up this way. You are not the first person to say this should change. The Devs have stated it will not change because it is a game mechanic and not a bug/glitch/exploit. You have nothing. You lose. Good day sir.
