Alphas can utilize top end industrial haulers like Mammoth to bot level 4 courier missions.

I suggest restricting them to the first tiers of industrial ships (IE: Wreath) and increasing the requirements for other haulers, or remove Alpha's ability to utilize industrial haulers altogether.

As was said the last time you posted this, if you suspect an account of botting, report it

Go to Igunn. Plenty of people to ask there.

What is ever going to make you suspect a bot? Just because they don't answer your messages doesn't mean anything. Suicide ganking mission haulers? Way too much effort for no reward, and neither solves the problem.

This garbage isn't a issue the players should have to clean up.


Get a clue.

The reasonable thing to do is to make it less profitable for Alphas attempting to run level 4 courier missions, through ship restrictions or otherwise..

Some courier missions give approx 1200 LP and over 1 mil isk and can potentially take 1 jump to complete. I know of a few agents where all the missions they give you take 1-3 jumps with a rare 4.

I would estimate its very close to what you would be making per hour doing combat missions, but with zero effort.

Really, how stupid are you to be arguing against real botting solutions that don't have to depend on the handful of players who would actually go to the effort of policing that crap?
