Yet the suicide gankers have no consequence.
The gankers lose sec status. That is a very significant and limiting consequence, if you don't think so, try ratting yourself up from -10 then come back and talk.
The consequence for the carebear carelessly flying a gankworthy ship is that they get ganked. The consequence for the ganker is that they now need to raise their sec status or start paying for an alt.
Oh look, consequences are driving the game |

While yes... an insurance company that is out to make money would probably find ways to shortchange on insurance policies... CCP and the CSM are run by individuals that have no interest in changing this... so your only hope is to actually vote in the next CSM for a strong high sec player, so just maybe your voice will be laughed at on the CSM table, instead of on the forums.
*EDIT* Calling goons to come flame this post. I have nothing against suicide ganking, it's a part of the game, nowhere is safe and never will be safe. But the system is very messed up as far as risk goes, those doing the ganking are playing a no risk game. What other careers in EVE allow you to kill a 100 million+ isk ship and their pod, with almost 100% success rate, risk free, cost free. Suicide ganking is easy enough as it is, it doesn't need to be free too. Last I heard the CSM might not be around much longer. Good thing too.
Post with your main. |

I never said suicide ganking wasn't easy. I also never said that it wasn't risky. What I did say was that it has consequences. You have made an alt to do your ganking, a definite consequence seeing as how you now have to spend more isk or RL money to facilitate the playstyle. If you were doing it with your main you would have to grind sec status to stay in high sec and to get the most out of your ganks. |

Costs ISK? I think you missed the 22b isk bit. Can you say plex? 22b - 400m = 21.6b Sounds like profit to me, not cost.
That isn't guaranteed though. That is the fault of the people carrying shiny things in paper-thin ships. |

It is positively adorable to see all of the carebears getting into a froth over this while posting with alts. They must be afraid that Goons will put the suicide bullseye on their mains. |
