I don't even have the "schematic" to most of the stuff I own(everything not researched)
How the hell is somebody gonna steal that from me when they hack me?

And the concept of collect x number of parts to make something have always pissed me off. Would you kindly tell me how the hell you are gonna make a gun out of 5 barrels? Or maybe you can conjure up a car with 20 doors?
Now, if it's collecting a set of different parts, it's a bit better, thou anything remotely realistic would mean that it's going to be near impossible to get--I rather doubt the core component would remain intact when it explodes, because that's the part that would be doing the exploding. And it'd be rather hard for them stuff in the center to get blown into space even if they are not exploding.

Now, the raid stuff is much more realistic. However the 2nd one is extremely abuse-able, so I doubt it'd happen in the current design.

Quite possibly the worst suggestion I've seen here.

Cool, so Dan releases a new ship mod. Only way to get it is to hack the schematics from someone who has it and steal parts from several others who also have it. Problem is, noone has it yet. Enlighten us as to how this new mod comes into circulation.

New item would still be obtainable via badges. Seems rather simple tbh.

How the hell is that consistent with "only obtained this way"?

Rank doesn't mean much. There are players lower ranked, but stronger than me. And there are players higher ranked, but weaker than me. So I disagree with getting more badges for disabling someone higher ranked. And combat reputation means nothing. As pointed out earlier, most players above rank 800 are either insane or laughable.
