The proof is in any thread in the past however many years where fittable freighters was suggested and the gankers were the ones warning that it would result in silly people fitting for max cargo, only to be surprised when they went boom. Our posts were actually coded messages to CCP telling them to make it happen. Unfortunately, the decoder rings kept getting lost in the mail until James 315 took one to fanfest and handed it to Hilmar personally. The same techniques were also used in the push for being able to close and restart a corp to drop a wardec.
Damn you gank cartels , damn you ... /me shakes fist

Its incredibly boring more so than mining and not something i like doing hense why i dont do it, but if someone can get by with making money from shooting carebears who have so much isk to splash out and be stupid by running around afk then who are you to tell them to go trade, carebears have enough to protect them and its their fault if they choose to cut corners

The counter-ganking safety manual.
Yes spacefriends, carebears can NO LONGER wail and gnash their teeth that they 'weren't informed' about the realities of hisec not being safe, nor how to protect themselves against ganks.
The intent here isn't to nerf ganking or to white-knight, but provide a handy link for the inevitable future gank victims that refuse to follow its advice, and mistakenly call for nerfs instead. I intend to jam this post down the throat of each and every fail-bear in the future who wails 'nerf ganking!'. F#)$(#!

There is no such thing as "unreasonable" highsec ganking anyway. An action taken within the boundaries of the game's rules is legitimate by default.
Suggesting anything less is suggesting that people have the right to abdicate their own self defense to the mindless NPCs. In which case why in the **** are you playing an MMO in the first place. "Verily, I have often laughed at the weaklings who thought themselves good because they had no claws."

I'm pretty sure that any ganking is unreasonable to some. For some bizarre reason people think Concord are a replacement for taking responsibility for their own safety.
It doesn't work like that with law enforcement in the real world, and it most definitely doesn't work like that here.

I agree. While I don't think CCP should do anymore to punish gankers. I think there needs to be more potential for players to punish them. It is dumb that an outlaw who is shot on sight can dock in station. I think what stations they can dock in should be determined by their security status. -1 security status and you can only dock in a 9.0 station. -2=8.0, etc. This wouldn't prevent them from hunting in highsec, but it would prevent them from using stations to hide. If they need supplies, they can still go to lowsec for them or they can have an alt bring them supplies.
Gankers are added content. Why not take advantage of that and let people try and hunt them down. |

In a lot of ways, I lay the root cause of a lot of tears and cries for nerfs at the feet of CCP, who don't expectation-level honestly with new players on the reality of EvE.
My personal experiences in RL have taught me that if you make someone aware of the 'paper cuts' coming their way, they are much less likely to freak out and cry grievous arterial wound when said time comes.
My recurring theme is also that the CSM is nullsec/losec centric, and while population density is highest in hisec and where new player subs are won or lost, proper pressure is not being put on CCP to do said expectation levelling.
I remain convinced, that if CCP did a 'cold dark truth' tutorial for new players as outlined at the bottom of this, they could address new player unsubs better than with any mechanics nerfs that p!ss of the vets they do have.

well if thats the case then the automatic warp scramble concord apply as soon as you shoot a player in highsec should be removed completely and allow them to be chased out of system by players and police

Instead, how about we give negative sec status players some incentive to undock?
Remove facpo, that way neg sec status players are not being constantly chased around by the magic space police. That's the reason the prospective white knights can't get anything done by the way, because we can't have a margin for error thanks to the fact that the faction police can chase us down faster than a player ever will.
You want to open up player interaction? Then remove the NPCs who get in the way. "Verily, I have often laughed at the weaklings who thought themselves good because they had no claws."

So true.
Also, I would like to point out that 8/10 players think CONCORD = Faction Police. So its doubtful that anyone would notice other than the criminals. Killboard

I wasnt referring to system ownership.
CONCORD cannot be tanked, cannot be evaded, and cannot be destroyed. They only spawn when a red card is handed out.
Faction Police (whatever they are called in the system you are in) will shoot anyone with a low enough status in the system you are in, beginning at -2. They can be tanked, evaded, and shot at.

Eve Wiki wrote: Restricted Systems
Players that have low security status provoke a police drone response when going into systems with a high security status. The thresholds for provoking a police drone response are follows:
1.0: -2.0 and lower. 0.9: -2.5 and lower. 0.8: -3.0 and lower. 0.7: -3.5 and lower. 0.6: -4.0 and lower. 0.5: -4.5 and lower. 0.0-0.4: No restrictions.
Please note that the systems in the Sanctum constellation in Genesis are claimed by Interbus and CONCORD, thus the faction police are CONCORD. Entering any system in this constellation, while having a security status below the level stated above, will provoke a CONCORD response, similar to the response. Gates will be locked down to prevent you from escaping the system and you will be webbed, scrammed and your ship destroyed.

Mammy Thule made me sit through a 100+ slide show of Little Leto one night. He had the cutest set of little boy chaps. Romping around the yard riding his little stick myrm. Shooting at carebear cutouts. I laughed, then cried, then woke up naked on the bathroom floor. Not sure what really happened that night.
(I thinkg I may have been ganked, but who knows)
Overall I would say booting them from tranquillity is a bit over the top. I'm not sure what a 100+ page threadslide is, but that also sounds unreasonable. -
There is some pretty basic math that will keep folks from being ganked for profit. Nothing can protect you from the lashback of a poorly thought out forum thread. Nothing can protect you from wacked out role players (CODE) that do it for.... well I'm not really sure what goes through their noggins. |

I was wondering when we would see another one of these, Short answer NOT GOING TO HAPPEN Gankers face enough issues in high sec as is from being free to shoot to anyone once they fall into criminal levels, killrights ( many of which are very cheap or free ) which make them legal targets in high sec if they bring their sec status up as well as legal targets in low sec without station or gate gun interference. Plus they lose ships to concord all the time and have FAC-POL on their tail the second they log in
If your having issues with gankers do one of these easy simple tricks:
1. Don't go AFK in space 2. Don't haul stupid amounts of ISK in antitanked haulers 3. Don't Mine without a permit 4. Don't Smack local when you die, tears are great motivators for ganks 5. Don't fit purple mods to subcaps 6. Don't go AFK in space ( Did I say that already? ) Is it bad if your friend says "that was a Metaphor" and you say "Meta 4? Get Tech II or faction" ?I love the sound of silent explosions in Space.-á |

That helps people who live in low security space too you know, if you fall to negative 10 you might want to bring it up so you can have gateguns on your side again, or actually enter a 0.5 and pass to another low without instant death and destruction dropped on your head. Its not a broken system it works as intended, it just also works for high sec ganker
PS: Its Freaking expensive to do that, its not something they do lightly or without reason as it takes a coniderable chunk opf change for something so simple as processing a tag and buying said tag
