The story: I entered a 4/10 DS complex in a 0.4 system with 2 corp members, in my Brutix. As the Brutix has no launcher points, I had installed a smartbomb as defense against missiles. And used it a few times in that complex. After warping back home I was shot to pieces by gate sentry guns Sitting in my pod I discovered that I had a sec standing decrease because I had killed a drone. I had received no warning or kill mail and hadnŠt noticed the message on the screen between the big amount of hit messages. And his owner was not around and had left his drone behind.
In my opinion you should not be flagged if you hit an abandoned drone, which is given up by his owner. And yes, I had Combat Drones option switched off in the overview. Not much use having all your own drones there and wouldnŠt have noticed the abandoned one probably.

Hmm, adding to my notes:
"Never return back to 0.1 and above, there are stupid rules for agression and flaging"
Thank you for warning, and I would advice you to petition for loss.

I had that back when Missiles had a blast radius. Mining in 0.5 with a Celestis firing on Belt rats with a heavy launcher. Missile exploded hitting rat, but the blast also hit an abandoned drone in the belt.
Instant wtfpawned by 3 Concorde BS. Totally pointless loss of a ship due to sloppy game design on ccps part.

"Smartbombs are everything but smart.". Someone was saying this on help channel in my early days, it looks like it is still true^^.

The (quick) response from CCP-GM is, that the above is according to game design. My solution: * reprocessed all Smartbombs in my hangar and corp hangar. * I wonŠt get another Brutix until there is a anti missile laser to fit onto it. They are being tested by the US, so probably wonŠt take long to get into the game

Edited by: Squelch on 26/03/2005 12:27:47 Some of the most amusing posts in this forum seem to originate with either a drone or a smartbomb or a combination of the two
Edit:
Oh and Viceroy of course

Giving this post a bump, so there is something different to read than "oh no server down again!" posts In my story I left something out...I am already 3rd victim in my corp because of smartbombs.
First victim: * During a mixed corp mining in secure space the hauler accidently let his finger slip and activated the smartbomb near the miners. Concord was very quick to kill his indy and while they were at it also took out his shuttle that he had parked nearby to make bmŠs. Maybe they thought there were explosives stored in the shuttle?
Second victim: * My corp mate, whose name I will keep secret (nickname: Muppet), was testing his ship setup with another corp member. They did this near a planet, but failed to see the abandoned shuttle...Also a quick visit from Concord after testing the smartbomb. After been docked, he thought to go out and mine for a new ship and boarded his mining barge. Which got killed too when he left the station
Hmm, maybe I should not have written this. Makes me look stupid...
