Right-click on the wreck, show info, then click on the portrait of the pilot that shows up as "owning" that wreck.

Send him or her a scathing email berating them for having the gaul to have shot at the rats in YOUR plex before you even got there.

I don't judge people by their race, religion, color, size, age, gender, or ethnicity. I judge them by their grammar, spelling, syntax, punctuation, clarity of expression, and logical consistency.

Were you fleeted with a non-corp alt? They can turn yellow if they belong to your alt and you've logged the alt off. They may be yours, but they belong to that other character, in that case.

Was just going solo, the pilot(that the wrecks belonged too) was i system earlier but left before I even started the plex. So yeah, it's a mystery

Chances are he was probably in the site you were doing, before you got there. Same thing happens when you try doing another person's mission, you may be killing the rats, but its his mission, so to speak, so the wrecks show up as his.

So he shot some guys but didn't finish, and all the wrecks are still his, seems like weird mechanic. wonder if it's working as intended?

Delete your eve cache files that should fix it.

Everytime you buy something that says "made in china" you are helping the rising unemployment in your own country unless you are from china, Buy locally produced goods and help create more jobs.

You are not in a complex, OP, you are in someone else's mission site.

I think you still get the bounties but that might have changed.


Check on the "Owner" of the wrecks. Is he around? If not, loot them while aligned on something just in case he is cloaked nearby.

i don't think I'm in a mission site, it was a site found by the system scanner that's there often

Aggression timers aren't kill rights.

Also if you want to shoot at something you should give me a try. After all I went through the trouble of making myself all flashy red to you. <3

Can't, I made rules for myself.

Rule #3: Never engage if you know you are going to lose! ;D
