Wasn't the gang aggression exploit fixed in QR?

It wasn't considered an exploit, but gang mechanics were modified after "the lofty" broke out in the forums. And yes, it was fixed - Boomershoot


"systems which have a security level of -0.0 or less, are considered lawles" - Shouldn't it be systems -0.4 or less ? - I think the editor ment the security status of the system but toke the status of the character -10.0 to +10.0 to explain - Chi'Lar

No. The criminal flagging system is the same in low sec and high sec. The only difference is that once you are criminally flagged in high sec, concord spawns and kills you. Nareg Maxence 16:11, 22 August 2009 (UTC)

Article states: "The rules for criminal flagging only apply in Empire space, that is, solar systems which have a security level of 0.5 or above. Solar systems in deep space, that is, systems which have a security level of 0.4 or less, are considered lawless and any actions players take in these systems will not cause them to be criminally flagged"

- I think this is incorrect - criminal flagging still occurs in low-sec, although the consequences are much less (gate and station guns will attack...). Jumping into high-sec with a criminal flag gained in lowsec will result in being concorded I think.

I would suggest chaninging the following:

"The rules for criminal flagging only apply in Empire space, that is, solar systems which have a security level of 0.5 or above. Solar systems in deep space, that is, systems which have a security level of 0.4 or less, are considered lawless and any actions players take in these systems will not cause them to be criminally flagged."

"The rules for criminal flagging only apply throughout Empire space, that is, solar systems which have a security level of 0.1 or above. The consequences of having a criminal flag however differs depending on the actual security status of the system. In solar systems in deep space, that is, systems which have a security level of 0.4 or less, criminal flagging will result in gate and station guns attacking (tanking and/or evading these attacks is acceptable). In high security systems (those with a security level of 0.5 or above), criminal flagging results in not only gate and station gun aggro, but also in a visit from Concord who will detroy your ship.

It appears that a link is broken on this page. See the line, "Stealing = a player who takes items from a container/wreck belonging to another player (covered in this article here)". Since I can find nothing else on the page regarding stealing, I'm guessing the "covered in this article here" is supposed to link to an appropriate page. Yet it does not. I suspect that it should point here: Container and Wreck Ownership or perhaps here: Can Flipping. -WheatGrass

Page needs to mention another method of maintaining aggression that isn't documented anywhere: shooting of wrecks/cans/drones. But somebody else can do that. I paid CCP $360/yr for two accounts to PLAY the game, not so that they can tell me to document it for them.

Can't rate the page inaccurate

The requestion action could not be performed on this revision.

A template or image may have been requested when no specific version was specified. This can happen if a dynamic template transcludes another image or template depending on a variable that changed since you started reviewed this page. Refreshing the page and rereviewing can solve this problem.
