					<description>Good question!

Answer is no -- cleaning up stuff is what Ironfleet does, and salvagers aren't in business to leave salvage behind.  

On the other hand, there &lt;b&gt;have&lt;/b&gt; been times when the, er, contributor, convo'd me in friendly fashion, asking what they did wrong or begging for "their" stuff back.  When they are nice about it, I am usually friendly; and I have been known to give helpful advice or, after finding out what their *real* game goal is (it's never "I want a zillion ores in my hangar") offer help with that goal.  I've even given out free ships -- cheap T1 stuff -- to people who were nice, but &lt;b&gt;never&lt;/b&gt; the actual stuff back that I hauled in the first place.

99 times out of a 100, though, the dumb / noob player responds with the most foul abusiveness, and so any charitable impulse I might feel is most handily suppressed.

There was a time I was wreck-baiting in my stealth bomber and one-shotted a day-old player in his Ibis (honestly, I didn't realize when I fired, and I was NOT in a starter system).  Him, I offered to help, but he didn't respond.</description>

					<description>Question: Have you ever NOT taken ore because you felt the miner was too noob or dumb?  During a brief noob-griefing period in my career, I kept sending guys isk when I took their stuff, because I felt like it was beating up bunnies.  I actually admire consistent philosophical outlook, but I wondered if you've ever broken your own code.</description>
