Every time this happens is one time to often. This is a flaw that can't be overlooked if you implement such a looting feature. You can't be 100% sure that you wont get flagged using your toolset in pvm, and I aint talking about borealis. If you really have an engi, and this never happened to you than I wonder how often you play that engi. No it doesn't happen every week, but like I said, every time it happens it's one time to much.
I'm not a careless person, I've gotten used to it enough to remember canceling auras on leaving bs and entering bor. However, when I was new to the game I often forgot. This ain't a way to attract and keep new players. It's annoying enough to get killed once in a time because of your auras. Also, many pvm encounters atm still leave the option to flag up people with aoe offensive capabilities, and it happens from time to time. Once you add a gain to flagging people on purpose it will happen a lot more.
What's so bad about finding a good implementation. It's just pvp gimps who want easy loot imo. Make it hardcore, I made a suggestion for it, but obviously nobody liked it. I can only wonder why noone did.
