To be entirely fair, that right there was pretty much a guarantee to happen. Same thing happened when CCP lifted the cargo bay restrictions on PLEX way back in the day. Learn well, my fellow pod pilots; you see before you the absolutely best example thus far of one of the worst mistakes you can make. There's always one. DON'T...BE...THAT...ONE!

I don't know where people get this stuff. Freighter kills in March are on pace to be well below last month as well as below the six month average. Do we really need this alarmist GD post? I guess a PSA can't hurt: Freighter pilots you should tank your ships! You should also pay attention, scout your route, fly with an escort, not carry multiple billions in cargo and get yourselves a permit. Even all of this may not save you, so remember the Golden Rules of Eve and never fly something you cannot afford to lose. Stay strong brave freighter pilots. Your strength in the face of adversity is a real inspiration to gamers everywhere. o7 freight kills are double from Oct 2015 Freighter "kills" are indeed double October, but that is not the relevant category. That is people managed to get on a killmail with a freighter (which, since freighters don't have guns means people are hopping between ships). It is freighter losses which you are whining about and they are down as I said. We might reach October's 396 freighter kills by the end of the month, but certainly not the recent numbers from January or February unless someone decides to burn somewhere really hard next weekend. And it is certainly not double anything recent as you claim.
It does seem to me that the last weeks have brought a return of 10B+ freighter kills though which had dried up. Perhaps the coming expansion is inducing hauling amateurs to move high value stuff around in preparation. I should do a more careful study.

People kill whatever they can. I had one of the funniest killmails the other day. A alt entered a low sec system and immediately lost his ship. 2 Loki and another 8 assorted pirates to kill a empty Velator (I had dropped the 1 unit of tritanium in another system, so even that wasn't unavailable). The pod escaped.

But can't you just see how very, very unfair it is that a mere 38 players attacking an unescorted hauler will always win?

I wanna fly a Freighter for some reason but read enough about them to know better lol.. So pass the risk onto someone else!
What I do is use public courier contracts. Only risk is a typo so don't do that. I pay 2% of whatever the collateral is for a reward and letting anyone get the contract instead of private to Red Frog is much faster too. (at least in my experience)

I watch the gankers all the time, you don't even have to have anything in your cargo. just flying the ship warrants you getting ganked since industry is the scum of the galaxy to them.

To be more precise, its not all industry players that are the scum of the galaxy to them.(and therefore getting ganked) Just their empire competition. Big or small. Stuff getting blown in HS however is still fun. It's too quiet anyways. |

While you are correct, I feel that removing freighters from the game could have unwelcome secondary consequences.

Why would "they" nerf high sec ganking into oblivion if this is the best play soccer moms-with-VISA's kids can come up with?
Just don't provide them with targets. Let that end of the game go into disuse. Wait them out. I'm betting the tiny-attention span crowd will find another game to one-day-wonder-boy-gank in. 'T is the nature of the mental configuration of such like people. |

Why not, kick freighters out of hi-sec inline with other capital class ships - why should industrials be specially treated little snowflakes? The game didn't die then.

How come red frog/black frog ganks are rare?
Are they secretly behind all the freighter ganks to boost there business....
