 Spaceship Form -_- So obviously this spaceship system sucks. Instead of having your spaceship turn into spaceship form after a while of it being in stasis, make it so that they get towed away into either a base in Sol or the nearest gal where they were left at. And charge for the tech of the ship and gear or whatever you want to charge us, just please remove this spaceship system, not all of us can play everyday. Its not a big deal when you lose a 50-100mil trade slave, but when its a slave or actual ship with 100bil+ worth of gear on it, its a bit ridiculous.

Re: Spaceship Form -_- Agreed completely. There might have to be a mechanism to abandon ships once they get auto-towed, or perhaps you'd just let them rot there till uni reset.

Re: Spaceship Form -_- I'm just not sure how:
1. You could forget a ship with 100b+ gear
2. Not be able to log on for about 5 seconds it takes to fly over the ship and press R
3. Not be able to get on for 1+ weeks O.o (I assume its a t20 and above ship)
4. Oh and how does a level 600 get a 100b+ ship
But whatever, i don't support nor dislike this suggestion either way.

I could of logged off quickly for whatever reason, your ship stays there for a little and during that time a aggro hive or something could came by and killed me. 2. If i had some way of knowing my ship was in stasis i wouldnt intentionally let it stay in stasis. 3. I do get busy in RL sometimes with family and work and dont log for a few weeks, im sure im not the only one. 4. My main is 1600, and i have really nice teammates

Re: Spaceship Form -_- I agree that spaceshipping is of evil. With the GG system gone it's also almost pointless. There should be a different system for losing ships.

Re: Spaceship Form -_- I think it's a cool way to let others pirate yo shit when you're stupid enough to let it be unguarded for that long.
Don't log off when shit is attacking you? Woah that's a hard concept.

Re: Spaceship Form -_- I support this only if it includes a way to destroy unwanted ships instantly.
Because as it is, stasising a ship is the only way to get rid of t19+ ships. (which is utter BS)

Re: Spaceship Form -_- Pro tip: always park your ships before logging off, including slaves that you couldn't possibly replace.
This being a MMO with a dynamic galaxy and all.

Re: Spaceship Form -_- Edit : What Visorak said. Without a way to actually get rid of a t19+ ship FIRST, this can't ever be considered.

Let's say we just get rid of "space ship" form.
Let's say I have a shield monkey and I level him up in, oh, an apprentices ward. Then I get a rhino, then I get a heph machine.
I don't want my rhino and my app ward any more, but I can't sell them, can't slave them and blow them up, and now I can't SPACE SHIP them? I can never ever reclaim those slots, and any ship above tech 18 will be permanently tied to my character unless I pay money to have an admin item form them which of course costs money.
If you allow AI bases to buy such ships, then it's inevitable someone will make a mistake and accidentally sell their main ship, along with all the gear inside it. Obviously when the ship gets auto-towed you could just not reclaim it at the towing station. Or there might even be an option to abandon it there completely. I know that the hard-ass response is "suck it" but I don't see the merit of the mechanic. Making the game infuriating for no reason shouldn't be confused with keeping things from become carebear.
