yeah and lets also remove the decay on weapons you can buy because I am sick of buying flamethrowers and acid rifles.
I am not the best pilot around but in the time I have been playing jtl I have looted enough components to pay for all my ships (I have so far purchased every imperial ship I can get 4/3/4/4) although I have sold on the lower level ships whilst they are still in very good working order.
and I have loads of components that I will not sell because they are too good and pilots don't seem to want them.
I am currently going the shipwright route as well and let me tell you unlike other crafting profesions you get roughly 1 xp point for every unit of resource you use to make the part
So it costs a lot to become a shipwright and half the parts you can make aren't as good as the looted items so ppl don't really want to buy them.
I am slowly getting my way up the tree but it takes a lot of time resources and money.

Uhh, once upon a time, dident SOE say that the idea was once you bought a ship you NEVER lose it? I'm sure i read somthing in the initial FAQ which said that you would never lose your ship...

like it has been said, dont remove just cut the decay by 2/3.
even at 3 or 4 cpu it adds up every quickly on avg tier 4 ships on my server are 400 to 450k master at 800k forget firespryer they go for about 10mill

What's so special about firespray? It's ugly and it's just a light patrol ship.

I just bought an A-wing about 2 weeks ago and looked at the chassis level and it is now at 160. It is one thing that we are losing are equipment from the deaths. I don't know about everyone else, but I cannot afford buying a chassis every 1 month that costs 1 million credits.

Lame idea. Maybe if you didnt get your ass shot up so much, you wouldnt have to worry about chassis decay.
Try learning to fly better before starting yet another dumb petition (I would just assume this game NOT become the equivalent of the Special Education' room in school.)
If you blow up 20 times YOU are doing something wrong, not SOE. Treat your ship better, geesh.

didnt tiggs say that they just ignore petitions?
anywho i /antisign. try shopping around, i went out and bought a kimogola. First shop i visited had one for 300k, which seems the avg. Then i walked across the street and found one for only 40k! Dont just buy the first thing you see or splurg on things u dont need and credits go along way.

id like to see looted componets decay less, crafted ones remain the same.
I really dont die very often but of course i cant find pvp either, infact without pvp i eject/die maybe once every few days of powergaming. Guess i should stop trying to solo a tier 5 gunboat in my x wing

Where do you think our (Shipwrights') resources come from? These ships take a !*&$load of resources to build, and the grind was even worse (especially to get to Master.) We need some way of getting money back.
