Is this legal? I never tried (if I tried and it was illegal it would have warned me since safeties were on). I’ve seen people warping off while I was mining leaving behind drones 10 times. 3 times it was a medium drone like me. 7 times it was mining drones. 7 of those times was in the same system Dantan. 3 of those times it was a fellow from the same corp so I mailed “hey, dude you did something stupid like I did. The drones?” And I asked him to thank me in corp chat. Every time I waited 5 minutes, got no reply, and said in corp chat “hey (name) you left your drones in Dantan’s asteroids” and each of the three times the dude came back to the mining spot 15 minutes later.
If it’s legal to take them, I guess I help myself to some replacements.
And if it’s a corp member, I’ll still warn them.
