Making the ship only claimable by the woner would take a lot of fun out of the game. Mining is becomming a more and more dull activity especially since they introduced the auto claiming.

And besides that:
Well, it isn't funny to loose a spaceship... but a game where i can neither win or loose is not worth playing.

i agree with you.
My decision of giving half of the beacon it that i wouldnt have it at all if miner wouldnt place the bomb... so 50:50

It's so easy to explain
Spacecraft always spawns 200 meters from "you" when put a bomb, and in that moment it's spawning. Thats the reason why it should be given with deed to miners... anyway... i cant imagine spacecraft deed... where is all the risk? strange signal always make me fascinating feeling. you never know what will it be .

In my honest opinion this guy should give you back all
50/50 sux for you as it should be yours...
I'm sorry for you.. If it'd be me i'd give you back all after realise who's is it...
i had already several spacecrafts. never missed any but i'd got furious when realise that some1 stolen my find...

regards

well, you have no idea that it's spawing "in that moment" - i asked for proof and you gave me .. um ... not proof

even assuming that your "proof" is true, i.e. it "always spawning 200 meters", there is still no proof that you spawned it - another person can walk up and say "it spawned for me" - your logic relies on itself to be true, im afraid therefore, any conclusion of "stealing" is poorly based

When someone gets a spacecraft and the hof's are low - it goes into mining.
Fact.

More than once I've been in an area, ran thru, saw nothing - only to spawn a spaceship 100 mtrs away & come back - voila .. spacecraft.
Fact.

I've been with friends who've gotten signals - and I dropped at the same exact spot they did and also at the ship - never once did we get a duplicate signal.
Fact.

People are always going to believe one way or the other .. it's usually a hunter that says "it's not a mining thing" or someone who's stolen the ship saying "you didn't spawn it."

The only ones who know the facts on spaceship discovery - is MA.
It's their world & we just rent space in it - and speculate on the few facts that we do have

Well I agree with this too, however...
The person who looted the spaceship didn't have to come here to say anything but they did
They didn't have to invite me for a private chat about this & yet they did
And yesterday the said person gave me some of the loot money.

So all in all, I guess I am lucky to get anything back & I acknowledge that.
I guess I feel Tytanick deserves some credit for being open & honest with me so he kinda deserves half for that alone.


I'd like to say also a thank you to those of you that have made interesting & positive replies, may you all get a nice global today!

Thanks for all the votes, please keep them coming.
