Proving you nerds dont have the balls to actually go after the pubbies who fight back.
Maybe we should start inviting miners into low to bait you to try to shoot them while we guard them.
But then you'd have to enter low AND WE CAN'T HAVE THAT CAN WE.

Gate camping is for the desperate. I mean really. Having 10 long range ishtars or whatever sitting ona gate and murdering a miner or destroyer or whatever because you want the kill board stuff is stupid.
I am new to EVE. And constantly I murder people with kill boards that should make Me sweat and blush. But they got those numbers being jerks, not being skilled.
So pick one. Be a jerk, or be skilled.
As a note, one if the people that have murdered me over and over again , has my complete respect because it was all about the fight and engagement, catching me when I thought I was strong, not at my weakest.
Seriously. Stop begging for kill board wins, go earn them. |

By these whiney threads you attract even more people to gank you because seeing you cry and beeing butthurt is mad fun . Also if I loot your ship and get a few T2 harvesters for a T1 destroyer I still make isk out of it. The idea is that nothing in this game should be without risk and its supposed to be that way. There is no broken mechanic Your ideas of "Concord protocted space" are broken. Please leave EvE or man up. <3 u Ok I'll answer this post just because it's so filled with unoriginal thoughts like "whiney" , "carebear alert" , "cry" and suggestions that there's only one way to enjoy EvE.....yours..... ! Why should you care what I say ? You're out in null-sec , aren't you ? I've made no suggestions for any changes out in null or low-sec or WH space for that matter . If you ganked me out in Fountain I'd probably congratulate you unless you were blue to me . Plus telling me to "leave EvE" says you haven't been reading much of this thread [it's been stated....frequently] . What it does say is that you're probably not one of a hand full of highly vocal pro-gankers with more accounts than most people can afford ! Just a random poster . The pro-gankers got good reason to be afraid of guys like me . The Gods of EvE might actually be paying attention . They have before . In the beginning high-sec was without protection it seems . Maybe just a few guns here and there . Then gankers made the installation of CONCORD necessary but alas they were weak and might easily be ganked themselves . Thank gankers for the next installation . They gave CONCORD the dreaded Doomsday Devise and made them tougher , maybe impossible to gank . To meet them now is to be driven before them like dust in the solar winds . Still there's room for improvement with organized crime getting bolder and more organized . Yet there's still gankers who think this causes them to push the envelope further . They remind me of a burglar who discovers a big house with nobody home and a door key hidden in an obvious place . He enters and finds a number expensive items and money that could be pilfered and might even be blamed on somebody the owners knew if he had just kept a low profile , steal them and lock the door behind him . Also it could have been a place he might have been able to visit again ......but....Oh no , not him . He has to get on the phone and call a bunch of friends to back up on the lawn with their cars and clean the place out . His ego you know . So this lets the owners know something is up . The cops dust for fingerprints and find them on the phone he used to call his buddies and instead of wealth , he gets the slammer ! Moral : gankers are afraid that my voice might cause them to loose their big rich house . They really ought to blame themselves for loosing as much as they have already .
you are so full of **** it actually makes me sad.
a) I dont spend 23/7 in Fountain because i am in FA. actually I enjoy Empire Space and FW PVP a lot.
b) "Pro-Ganking" is a term i find rather laughable.
c) my point stands. man the **** up. |

Goal shouldn't be make them quit EVE, but get MORe involved. Hell, I'd admire a high sec ganging corp that asled their victims to seriously join them after. That would be hella cool... Can't join unless a previous victim lol.
Hmm... seems to me that there is an organization pretty much exactly like that in highsec. Except for the "previous victim" thing. Let me do some Google-fu and see if I can find them for you... oh yes, here they are - check out this link to their website.

Why would the New Order of HI SEC go to low sec to fight some loud mouth?

NO ganks miners that have guards quite often, and sometimes even ganks the guard instead of the miner. If miners are going to low sec where they have to pay attention and don't have an omnipotent police force on call, then the NO has won...they don't need to go after them in low sec
Posting on an internet forum dedicated to internet spaceships and calling other people nerds. Sounds legit.
Let me get this straight...gate camping with a fleet of 10+ people killing solo frigates and destroyers with little risk of loss to yourself is leet PvP, but you cry about hi sec gankers who ALWAYS lose their ship? You're not only a tool, but a hypocrite as well. |

What time? We were probably out in a WH or the ass end of Metropolis near Avenod. Try again between 2330-0000.
EDIT: Also, despite being a gank nerd, props to actually entering lowsec.

And actually, if you did your research, we're the ones REMOVING the gate camps the likes of Nuli Secunda, Periphery, and other nerds who like to gate camp and call it "pvp." Just as bad as ganking miners being called "pvp." Most of our time is spent roving about blapping bads. Hell, we even found an Orca getting shot at by Eve Uni, repp'd it, escorted it back to highsec, and taught the pilot why doing that solo was probably a very bad idea.
If you're going to make a claim or statement against me like saying I'm a hypocrite, at LEAST have the facts to back it up

Blah blah blah.... I personally find that there are two things wrong with this game: First... If blown up, the stuff should be assigned to the guy who blew it up and the guy blown up. Not "blue" to everyone. I blow up an NPC.... everybody touching the scarp is flagged. Not so when a player is blown up. STUPID!
Second... If I run into things I don't take damage. We are in a fecking bumper car fair ride armed with AK47's... HUH???
Those two flaws in the game design degrade the otherwise remarkable simulation to look like Ken and Barbies Space Station Play set.
If #1 would be changed the ganker has to come back to claim the loot if blown up in highsec by concord and his buddy can't take it without risk. Or he becomes at least a suspect. WAY more spicy and exciting as the entire environment can become involved in case of a gank. All risk reward. Not gank and run like little princesses. Every real ganker and pirate MUST love this idea because it would relieve him from the grief of being called a friggin princess pirate and candy stealer.
If #2 would be changed a fast flight into an astro field could be the last thing you do. Banging to hard into other ships would cause damage according to mass and speed of both. Docking to fast.... SPLAT! To enter and exit spaces like jump gates or stations an invul timer like the inviz after jump could be installed to prevent mayhem.
Just my 2 isks....

"If someone bumps into me they should take damage", to which the bumpers said okay, I'll park a freighter outside Jita 4-4 undock, watch as all small ships undock and quickly blow themselves up.
"Ah but, what if it only applies if you click the approach button", to which the bumpers said okay, so what if I double click in space to bump you.
"Ah but, it should apply if you turn on your afterburner/mwd and bump someone", to which the bumpers fell out of their chairs laughing.
"And," the victims continued, "it should turn you suspect too! This would of course mean making activating your prop mod a yellow warning", to which some of the bumpers stopped breathing from laughing so hard.
"Ah but...", continue the victims, trying to describe an algorithmic way to detect if a bump was malicious or not, rather than just tanking up their damn ships and learning how to avoid being bumped/ganked.
If bumping did cause damage, it would benefit gankers and bumpers far far more than it would benefit victims, simply because the gankers are innovative, and many victims are lazy.
Not to mention the havoc it would cause in the 1000 strong fleet-based fights. |

Apologies for coming so late to such a quality thread...
Matogg: With each nerf to non-consensual conflict in hisec you kill EvE in a death of 1,000 cuts. If you want theme-park, go to WoW. I will continue to kill-it-forward in your name, and the name of your petition-bear brothers. YOU are killing your bear brothers with this heresy against HTFU, I am just GOD's instrument.
Anslo: Your ePeening and elitism against other pvp'ers while hiding out in an NPC corp is...delicious. Also, your BC killboard at a 4:1 K:D and abysmal ISK lost-to-killed ratio seems a bit outpaced by your mouth? Came expecting a pvp God, left seeing a sheep in blob clothing

I'm bored, I'll bite.
You argue that your chosen playstyle doesn't affect anyone else. Unfortunately (for you), that is not true.
Those rocks you mine, you just prevented someone else from mining them; will you give me the ore from the rocks that you took from me?
The items you manufacture, buy, and sell affect the market and hurt the profitability for everyone else on the market; will you send me ISK to compensate me for the damage you have caused me?
Even running missions affects others. Combat missions create wrecks in publicly-accessible places containing loot and can be salvaged, both acts resulting in items that you can sell on the market to hurt my profits again.
Trading missions require you to travel between systems. Jumping from gate to gate affects others, because each jump has to be processed individually. If too many people are jumping, you have to wait in line. If too many people are undocking from a station, you will be bumped like crazy trying to warp off. I missed a deadline on a sale because I had to wait for you to jump through a gate, after bumping into you while we were both undocking at the same time. Will you compensate my loss?
Everything you do in this game affects someone else in some way. Everything except sitting in a station doing absolutely nothing.
By your own admission, you don't just sit in a station doing absolutely nothing. Why then should YOU be allowed to affect ME with a playstyle you have chosen, but I not be allowed to affect YOU with a playstyle I have chosen? |

I love when bears tell you that Eve is a sandbox and you should let everyone play as they want.
The biggest misconception here is, while it's true that Eve is a sandbox it doesn't necessarily mean that everyone can do whatever they want whenever they want and however they want without any consequences.
Let me give some basic examples so bears can also understand;
Do you want to mine but the fact is that mining is so boring, you also want to read a book, watch a movie or bang your girlfriend? That's fine ! Seriously it is.. The game allows you to do that. But as you said my carebear friend, eve is a sandbox and it has a built-in butterfly effect. Nobody really forces you to go AFK, you are willingly giving that decision on your own like an adult (I assume you are an adult) we gankers assume that you guys are mature enough to evaluate the consequences of your actions. And guess what, after getting ganked (which is the inevitable truth and consequence of being AFK) you whine like a little cry baby.
Whining on forums, begging CCP, sending petitions. Gentlemen, either take responsibility of your choices or seriously get out.
Yes Eve is a sandbox. Yes everyone is free to do what they want. But guess what bears, your tears on forums and pre-emptive demands kills "OUR" sandbox. http://www.minerbumping.com/p/the-code.html |

What i'm saying is if you're ganked in anything other than high-sec you were often just plain unlucky and taking your chances . Not going about your business like in high-sec where you only had a slow reacting CONCORD to depend on to almost save your ship .

CCP has never considered high-sec ganking to be griefing.
Yet, if a gank victim feels 'griefed' - and expresses his opinion in public - I consider that to be a huge bonus.
Funny how that works. |

HI-SEC GANKING IS NOT ANYBODY'S RIGHT ...IT IS ILLEAGLE !
The problem is that a blind eye has been turned to it for the last few years as it steadily got worse . There used to be fun for all not just a minor segment of the playing population who will milk this cow until it can't stand up . CONCORD needs longer arms and sharper teeth . CONCORD is just like the police in real life, powerless to prevent crime, they can only provide consequences for the offender AFTER the fact and no we are not letting CONCORD kill anyone who locks you just as the real police are not allowed to blow away anyone who looks at another person on the street.
As with much real crime, high sec ganking is frequently a crime of opportunity. They see a chance to make large ISK at the cost of some easily recovered sec status because you have put way too much ISK worth of potential drops in a ship that is far too easily killed. I spent a long time flying a Golem in high sec level 4s and never once got ganked (though I have been ship scanned before). The reason is simple, the ship can only drop at most about 300 mil in modules (almost entirely in a few Caldari Navy BCUs). If it were ganked and drops EVERY faction module it has on it, chances are the gank squad would still lose money or maybe break even. My tank is full T2 because it keeps the cost of the ship low and doesn't help run missions any faster since it adds no dps and I can comfortably tank all level 4s anyway so literally all a deadspace tank would accomplish would be making my Golem a profitable target. The cost of the ships required to gank that ship is very likely to be more than the potential drop so no one will look twice at it.
There is still the possibility some random person will gank my mission alt just to try to ruin my day, but I can afford another one easily if it were ganked (see cardinal rules of EVE for details on this) but anything can be ganked just to ruin your day. It just isn't likely to happen when there's no profit to be had.
Here is an article for you that will help you determine how much of a risk you are running with your expensive ship in space.
http://themittani.com/features/alod-return-investment?page=0%2C2
TL;DR: The best ISK/hour in the game is ganking silly people in high sec, deny them the payout and you won't get ganked. |

Matogg wrote:A few days ago I decided to learn how to use the forums after having offered various game-play ideas to GM's through petitions . I was always told to go to the forums because they would be more apt to seriously look over my ideas there than they would petitions . The fact that i've posted here is not to take something away from you that you've been used to doing like hi-sec ganking but to let people know that it's being abused.....much more so than a few years ago when this activity was rarely heard of and that went double where freighters were concerned . Hi-sec may not have to be totally safe but it should be much safer than it is today where ganking has taken on an almost organized crime look and feel . That's not right and it's only fun to a small portion of the players playing EvE most of whom seem to post in this thread . I know that there are many others who feel about it in a similar manner as myself but I can see now why they might not want to post on the forums . From my own experience I've been threatened in-game , told I'd better not poke my nose outside my station and even had to sit through one "tasteless" rap video from a young man who probably dreamed that there was bits of wisdom among all those 4 letter words as he blamed CCP for posting it on U-Tube .
I'd like to clear a few things up: #1 I appreciate all the tips I've received on how to avoid being ganked even though I suspected that they were delivered more out of loathing than a legitimate concern for my welfare . #2 I've been around EvE for much longer than most of you , judging from your profiles and for very good reason Matogg is an alt so if you're wasting your isk trying to figure out that he's in Jita then waste not.... want not and that goes for blowing him up . He looses nothing of any consequence and that includes his pod . Don't waste your resources . BTW any content in this thread are solely the ideas of me . Just one player . #3 Stop telling me to go play WOW . I've got a sizable investment in EvE and I'm only trying to make MY GAME a better place to play in . Besides I understand that WOW has a sizable part of the world population owning accounts in it so it couldn't be as bad as all that . Just not my game . #4 I have never lost a ship in hi-sec due to ganking [I have a few tricks of my own] and neither have any of my alts . My concern with ganking is only because a new breed of player is abusing and changing the game and yes I have sympathy for guys just trying to move an expensive load of moon-goo materials and other T2 and T3 building materials . If they take it in 2 loads that means they just doubled their chances of getting ganked especially going through these 0.5 security bottleneck systems that organized hi-sec gankers love so well [routes to every major hub has them] . Yes , I know there are things to prevent trouble . Not everybody has access to the best ways though . OK there was no way to pass up pointing a couple of things out.
#4 is almost certainly a lie, why would you petition the GMs if you hadn't been ganked. It is very difficult to believe that you have some altruistic outlook that caused you to feel you need to protect these helpless high sec inhabitants just minding their own business albeit in an incredibly silly way.
In a similar vein I've seen people IRL that will sit half the day and watch handicapped spaces to call the police to ticket/tow anyone parks there without a permit. Now they may believe they are doing the right thing and most of us may even agree but when you look into someone like that, surprise surprise they've got a thalidomide baby son or daughter without working legs. What they are doing is trying to make sure no one is in that handicapped spot for when THEY need it. Even without being one of the people who will necessarily condemn this sort of behavior (there are people who do) the point is that no one spends that kind of time looking out for other people. Human nature is wired to help the victims of emergencies it is NOT wired to be perpetually on guard for those most likely to be the victims of the next emergency.
Secondly, GMs telling you to post about your "idea" here instead of in a petition can essentially be translated in the following manner:
"What happened to you was well within the parameters of the game and hence we will not be doing anything about it, neither in your particular case nor in general. If you still wish to vent/cry/appeal to others may we present you with this electronic version of a tissue." |

I've never been ganked in high sec and I really don't care if you believe me . Talk to me nice and I might tell you about the time I tanked a gank attempt from a T3 battlecruiser in high sec while I was mining in a mackinaw . I'm sure CONCORD blew it up but I didn't stick around long enough to find out . I have been ganked in both null sec and low sec but since i'm not concerned with those areas that was OK with me . Congrats to them
It makes me sad when somebody suggests that there's only room in this world for people who are only concerned with their own personal feelings and has a "a psychological disorder" if you want to try and make life a little easier on people you don't even know . I feel that high-sec is where people , new to the game and not ready to go into null-sec yet , just want to mine and do carebear stuff while they build up the skills they will need to navigate through one of the most complicated MMO's anybody can play . This without being constantly harassed by PvPers , insistent on remaining at the PvP kiddy table .
I like your delusion above about what you dream CCP is really telling me but I beg to differ with you . CCP is a business and a business often looks out for it's own interests among other things . If people start to leave and maybe GO to games like WOW [as I've personally been asked to do by some] where they apparently look out for the interests of ALL their clients then that's bad for business . Changes made have been the installation of CONCORD , the empowerment of CONCORD making them stronger , changes to can flipping [that used to be the thing to do ] and recently changes to "bumping" . Which is just to name a few . It's just my opinion but since the bumping change the organization of CODE has gone to straight ganking . Guess they'll show us , huh ? I've got a hunch that Mr . James315 and CODE may very well end up being the saviours of high-sec just the way he sees it but not for the reasons he thought .

Feyd Rautha Harkonnen read my last post . You and your psychotic collateral damage mentality are very much a part of what I'm looking to change in hi-sec . kill a lot of miners and it will begin to draw attention . Play that Forward |

Must... Resist... showing support for Feyd....
I'm sure he is shaking in his boots, but calling people psychotic because they don't agree with you on internet spaceships isn't healthy to say the least. A lot of miners have been getting killed for quite some time now, when will your plan to change perfectly good stuff by whining about it come in motion.. Oh wait....
It's PAY it forward, you delicious troll you.

Wow there is some hard core crying in this thread. A lot of the talk coming from carebears here reminds me of idiots on WoW who spend their whole days farming on rp servers(yup, I even came from WoW). Hell, I even lost a carrier the other day and I'm still saying it, if you can't stomach a sandbox game then seriously go find something else to do. A bunch of whining and crying because you couldn't afk-mine without getting jacked with isn't going to change anything. **** like that is the very core and heart of this game. Without that the game truly would be the most boring game in the entire mmo community. Sounds to me like you all need to grow some spine. |

This is what I'm talking about :
" Let me introduce you to Feyd's Kill-It-Forward queue...
For every carebear who calls in the EvE-O forums for nerfs to hisec, rails against HTFU or who simply insults an emissary of pvp, an additional innocent carebear will be hunted down and murdered. I will not hunt down the transgressor, I will put a stake in the heart of an innocent and let him know who is ultimately responsible for his demise"
It's the essence of "collateral damage mentality" Oh I can't hit the one who made me mad so I'll settle for somebody innocent ! Psychotic is putting it nicely compared to how I really feel about that train of thought and always have every since I first heard of it a long time ago .
EvE is not purely a fighting game if , in fact , it ever was meant to be . I'm only advocating a change to the high sec part of it . I've noticed that when someone has a different approach to the game that involves high sec ganking they are shouted down , bullied , badgered , threatened in game and even people that may agree with them are made to feel intimidated . These things along with the act of organized ganking in high sec all fall under the same umbrella.....Harassment . Harassment is a EULA offense so don't blame me if I feel that the people who practice it are THUGS . If you don't like what I say then give me an intelligent argument . Some do and they have my respect even if they don't agree with me .
I have a new spin on an old idea that I touched on in my original post . There are people who remind me that the cops in real life don't get there in time to save your life . If cops SEE a murder about to takes place such as a man brandishing a loaded weapon they will pull their guns and order him to drop it or die . If they don't drop it immediately , well you know what happens and they always shoot to kill . I believe it would be a nice feature if CONCORD were to spawn when the "disable safety " button was clicked . If they found 1 or more vessels with their safeties OFF it could be determined if it was a gank on a player that said ships had NO kill right or war declaration on . If the safety went back on CONCORD could just holster their guns again . Nobody has to die . At least they would be there to kill the offender before they caused any irreparable damage . A very small ship might be able to be insta-popped but what would a ganker want with a ship that size when any hauling could be done with a tanked ship . The act of a duel shouldn't even be enough to call CONCORD up since it would be by consent . Besides if they did come it could just be like any instance where no shots were fired by CONCORD . With a change like that gankers would be able to ply their trade somewhere where they aren't driving new players out of the game as some have stated that they find pleasure in . |

Quite the contrary, it's the essence of someone playing a game he likes who wants to put an end to people trying to make said game into wow because it's too hard/not wow/whatever. Calling this gamer psychotic is not only stupid, it shows a state of mental instability resulting in being blind for boundaries between real world and gameworld. If you really feel angry about someone liking a computergame and defending it by ingame means, you should search for help, now.

If you don't like how hisec mecanics work, adapt, take action or move away. Or as CCP puts it: HTFU. Don't whine for magic spacepolice to save you, that's NOT taking action. I am not shouting, bullying, threatening badgering nor harrasing you. I am concerned for you. Think about what you are saying. You want to ruin the game for everyone. The game is meant to be as it is and is liked and has thrived because of it, not despite it.
