That's be my thought as well. Half a year ago, I found a BPO research job that I had started in 2009 or so, but never gotten around to deliver. It delivered just fine after I travelled to the system the BPO was in, though.


Ah, that would have been the first thought (or perhaps the fourth of fifth) but I also had a pile of blueprints purchased which I hadn't used.

I am still favouring the account being interfered with as the most likely.

Thanks ever so much, I'll take this opportunity to leave the area around Dodixie and move on elsewhere.

OK

The only BPOs that exist in the game for a 'robotics' is "R.A.M. - Robotics", which are an absolutely different thing than "Robotics".

So, are you seeing Robotics or RAM - Robotics in your Jobs History? The distinction is massive.

There were most indeed BPOs for "Robotics" in game. The item was called "Basic Robotics". Now, those existed, but that was the now obsolete way of making Robitics units which was replace by the PI methodology for Robotics manufacture in June of 2010. The BPOs were removed from the game at that point, so it would not be possible for you to have completed a job of Robotics with a BP in April of 2012. no way possible.

This is why trying to help you is turning weird and difficult because a lot of your information just isn't adding up right at all.

Just letting you know.

you checking the right account/character?

the basic robotics is from a lvl 1 3 part mission if memory serves.

Exactly. It's not going to show up as a 'completed job'.

Did you have a Corp Hanger that was repossessed for not paying rent? Everything in the Corp hanger gets packed away and can be difficult to spot and find.

Happened to me once when I had a break. I also found that I had lost a manufacturing slot for a year by leaving a job in it in another region lol.

A bit of poking around in menu's and a fine or fee later I got the corps assets released. Think I had to pay a month's rent on the office where my goods were impounded.

... in which case you would find those in your 'corporation window' under 'assets' and there you have to check for 'impounded'. And yes, as Aurette said, you have to rent an office again at the same station to get access to your impounded items.

While you are there, check the other tabs for your blueprints as well and, as someone already mentioned, use the 'Science & Industry window' to search for blueprints and corp blueprints and keep in mind that you can search for copies or originals and, in the case of corp blueprints, select different divisions.

Thanks again. I have never had a Corp hanger at all.

Yes, I am in a one-person Corp. Why that, you ask? Because I can't stand the chatter in the NPC Corp window and I prefer the silence of my own company. In this Corp no-one can hear you scream.

I've ran jEveAssets, bought new blueprints. Searched on the new one. Found it and only it. There are no jobs anywhere, so be it. They've gone in smoke and I can always sell the Mexallon to get new ones.

Again, thanks for the contributions and suggestions.

I doubt your account was hacked. They would have taken everything. If you really wanted to explore that scenario, login to Account Management. Under Account, open View Account Activity. You can see every IP that has accessed your account.

Nothing disappears. It's just a matter of figuring out what you did with it. I once managed to hide a freighter from myself for a whole week. It turned out to be in an item exchange contract that I had made to an alt and forgotten to accept or cancel. I've also been absolutely certain that I'd looked everywhere for a BPO that turned up in the hold of a covops I'd been sharing between characters. The various interfaces in EVE also have lots of filters and such; it can be easy to lose track of things.

Best of luck!

Yes, this character and another on the same account, or an 'alt' if you like. Hence the lack of drivel spouted on CorpComms.

I was aware of that fact but it's easier to say One Pilot because effectively that is all there is at one one time. And no, the blueprints haven't been transferred. The other character is also in the same Corp even though he's in LoSec for the same reason; less DrivelWaffle on the Chatter channel.

I do appreciate the help and comments but is this fine toothed nit picking really necessary?

Diolch yn fawr.

As long as you are in this corp, you have a corp hangar. You will have at least one office ... the one where you registered your corp. Registering your corp comes with an office and thus comes with a corp hangar. Search for the button called "corporation window" and/or the one called "science & industry" and follow my instruction from my previous post. Study those windows thoroughly ... the answer to your question might be there.
In case you found your assets in the corp hangar ... travel to that station, dock and open the assets window, then select the corporation subsection. You won't see the corporation hangar, if you merged your personal hangar to the station sidebar and just have a look there. As I said, you will have to open the separate assets window.

This is incorrect. Your HQ is set to the station where you created the corporation. However, it does not include an actual office, with hangar space, etc. Your HQ is a valid med clone target and shows up on your corp info as your HQ, but that's it.

Still, nothing disappears. It's always somewhere.

Thank you for saying this. This thread has smacked of so much leg-pulling.......anyone who has actually run a Corp knows this type of stuff about HQ and offices.

Really wish overtly lying about game mechanics was ban-able.

Sometimes I wish that it could just send you the account on a read pnly basis so that you could look there.

I've neve used Corp hangers at all. When I inherited this corp (no I didn't make it someome else did, invited another of my chars in before leaving. I named my second character, this one, after the corp) and I can tell you have I have not lied, nor leg-pulled, not used one Corp Hanger ever.

I only used the Corp as a way of turning off the nonsense in the chatter. That is its sole purpose and, you know what, works. There is only this character and another of mine on the same account (for the same reason) in this corp and the two have never met nor shared stuff. Hence the reason why the Corp is effectlvly a one-man Corp. I repeat the Copr is only used to filter out noise in game.

It is you, sir, who are making absurd comments and accusations. If you have nothing constructive to say then kindly don't.

All I kniw is that I pile of blueprints purchased at Dodixie (which I bought ages ago by contract) are not there and I have piles of Mexillion all over the place (well, fewer now as I have hoovered them all up).

That this the reason for this thread and no other. As I say, if you can't say enything useful then don't bother. Your posts are nothing but baseless accusations which are a total waste of bandwidth.

But you did and like wildfire it shall grow!

You did check your other character's assets/jobs/cargoholds right? And also, did you have a previous account you could have traded it too?

If you still think that it is hacking, you can check your wallet for player transaction between the time you were gone, and also you can check contract history. Best not let an account hacker live on eh?

I apologize if my information regarding HQ and corp office was incorrect. When I started a corp many years ago, I'm quite sure it came with an office. If that is not the case anymore (or my memories fail me), so be it and I'm sorry.

I also don't think anybody tries to pull a leg or what not. We are just trying to give ideas where to look for those blueprints or how to find them. I pointed you to two places where you can have a look. I guess you did not find your blueprints there. As long as you keep this thread on a polite level, somebody else might come along and present you an idea, which leads you to your blueprints in the end.

We're doing our best to help! It's not criticism; it's just that some of us have been through this before. Many times. At one point I had around 12 accounts with a full T2 production team, a full Red Frog freighter alt team, a couple of missioners, a pvp pilot, and various other characters. It was pretty easy to lose stuff in that mix.

It boils down to this. They are either:
* Inside of something -- cans (including ones anchored in space), cargo holds, POS mods
* In Production -- job has been started but never delivered (double check to make sure Science UI is showing entire Universe, not just the station or current region); job was started in a POS that was then destroyed or taken down
* In research -- prints were put into research but never delivered once they were ready
* In Limbo -- inside an item exchange contract that has not been accepted or deleted (if it expired; look for contracts with a red Expired in the status column); inside a courier contract that has never been delivered
* In a hangar -- whether corp or personal, if something isn't in space, it has to be in one of the places listed above or in a hangar. Double check your filters for hangar viewing.

Or they were:
* Used up (if they were BPCs)
* Sold or given away (check contract history)
* Trashed
* Victims of a hacker (check account activity per previous instructions)

To my knowledge, no blueprints have been outright removed from the game.

Assuming you made an exhaustive search, had all your filters correctly set (esp on the Science UI and the contract UI), and they're not in one of the places listed above, then one of the following must be true:

* Your memory is incorrect. You either destroyed, sold, or moved the items and don't remember doing it. This is the most likely answer. You have piles of mexallon you don't remember having. Since there are no other minerals, it wasn't refined. That means you had buy orders up at some point or you went shopping and never picked up the goods. If you're not remembering where the mex came from, it's likely you're forgetting something else.

* You're on the wrong character. I hear what you're saying in your post above, but if you're concealing alts (and well you should), check them. Even if you don't think you ever did anything with the other character, check anyway.

* They were BPCs, not BPOs, and you used them up in a long-forgotten industry job.

* You're trolling the OCD population (easily done btw)

* You were the victim of the lamest hacker ever.
