Open Instance teams on missions

Open Instance teams is nice, but you should be able to disable it for missions. I got tired of having my kills stolen and my loot taken away on what should be MY mission. If I'm looking for help on missions, that's why I'm in a fleet. This is definitely a potential gamebreaker for me. I shouldn't have to do all the work on killing an enemy ship then somebody else goes ahead and takes what I earned. For all of you people who want to flame this thread, lemme know what missions you're on so I can go ahead and let you do all the work and steal your loot.

    Hit O, click on the Team Settings tab, on the middle right, it says Looking For Group Mode, put it on Allow Team Invites or Block Team Invites. Either way, when you start a mission, unless you grouped beforehand, it won't auto group you.

    That's not really the point. I'd like to be put in a separate instance so I don't end up with a bunch of TRIBBLE looking for easy loot. Like I said, if I want help in a mission, I'm in a fleet.

    Not quite sure what you mean. If you change the settings like I suggested, no one will be a part of your mission. There won't be open team invites.

    So I'll be put in an instance all on my own without other people to bother me and steal my loot and my kills?

    Yep, if you change the settings the way I told ya.

    Open Teaming: Auto group on missions
    Allow Team Invites: People may send you invites in instances such as Fleet Actions, Defend Missions, PVP
    Block Team Invites: No one can send you an invite, doesn't matter where you are. Your missions are your missions, solo.

    Nice. Thx. This should be better documented. Loot thieving is one of the reasons I don't play WoW and it's nice to know that other MMO's have learned from this.
