I'm new to Eve as well as Eve Insider and for the life of me I can't get over it being ****ing Gate-Camped... I have been killed 7 times already by people that do just that and what I donÆt understand is that most of these people have been playing for over a yearàCome on! I mean really, are you to chicken to go PvPÆing against someone with the same kind of experience as yourself? Or is it just because you suckà? 4 X BS + 2 X Elite Cruiser (While Gate-Camping) = A Thor just ****out of luck I guess . Anyway, other then that EvE is a really cool game and I hope I get the chance to really improve so that I can kill some of you ô*****catÆsö who just sit and Gate-Camp.
PS. Any Good Clans out there? (Specialy ones that go after Gate-campers)..

its because its better to sit at a gate than look for hours for a noob in a cruiser. Its not about fair fights, those dont happen anymore.

People gate camp to kill things. There's a lot of 'traffic' at gates.
Stay out of low sec if you don't want to die.
We're not chicken - we'll fight whatever comes along. If that's 10 BS, that's fine. If that's 1 shuttle, we'll kill that, too.
Join an anti-pirate corp (note it's a corp and not a clan you join). Celes Apoc are probably the most "famous", but if you're new to EVE, they probably won't accept you. Try the recruitment channel.

Because 3/4 of all PVP in eve is at gates, guess where I want to be sitting.
There is no such thing as a fair fight in eve.. someone always has the advantage.. better fitting for the job, more blob, more gank, more ew, better skill, blah blah

Good traffic, good money, good kill mails. The real question is, "why not?" Why should the pirate spend hours hunting your frigate in a belt when your sorry ass comes to them?
My advice, don't whine about ANYTHING that happens in low sec that you don't like. Hell, I wished D2 good luck in their war on BoB, and they still popped me like no other. I've lost probably a good 20 million from a simple snipe camp, meh.
You'll get used to it, if you get a new name.

We're a full corp who do nothing but hunt pirates, but that doesn't mean we don't gate camp. You more or less have to do it if you want to fight, so...

Gate camping is the natural result of the fatal flaw of Eve. Thanks to warp drives and stargates, Eve is not a game of traveling and exploring. It's a game of "jumping." Jumping from point A to point B to point C. So the only way to actually engage an enemy is to catch them at one of those points. Hence, gate camping. Now you know why.

You can only get gate camped in low sec/0.0, and you get a warning before jumping into those systems saying that they are dangerous, so you have been warned. Gate camps are also a great source of income, and in 0.0 they are about maintaing control of space and regulating access.
Plus, due to the nature of eve, the only place you can catch people while they are travelling (that's what the majority of people are doing in low sec) is at gates.
They really aren't that hard to avoid, and if you got caught 7 times in the same gate camp...

The only reason why I'm going trough a low sec is because I don't feel like going 60 jumps to a place that will take me 30 jumps (While going through a low sec). Besides I only had 4 low sec to go trough and I got caught by the last Stargate..! Makes sense right...

I was caught out by gate campers after being in the game only a few days . I understood the risk, and still went to 0.0 in a punisher to try my luck, but i didn't go out and have a little cry about it. Gate campers are part of the game, much like ore thieves and macro miners. Eve would be no fun at all if there was no risk. All you would do is mine, and manufactuer, and very few people would play.
End of the day though (@ 2359), if you can't afford to run through low sec, don't.

I'm not "crying"...? I said I'm ****ed, there is a "HUGE" fkn difference between the two...
I also know the "risk', it's just I have zero fkn luck when it comes to Stargate Jumping, I will jump with 10 other poeple but, I will be the "IDIOT" that gets WJ.. That is all I said!
No here, take you 2 cents back cause it ain't worth *****!

I wonder, would you do the same offer to someone who has played the game for say 2 years and has done nothing but pvp? Challenging someone who just admitted he is a newbie does not make you a "not coward".

I would like to fight himà Besides I get to gain some experience I have been playing a game called BF2 for 2 yrs know and I know for a fact that if he comes running on to the battelfield, I will 0wn his Bacon, Fry it with some eggÆs and then enjoy it with a nice warm cup of coffee..

Simple Fix....while cloaked just log out if you see a gate camp....they hate it and you can giggle as they seeth...just make an alt to go in and out to see if they have cleared away and such....if not just log in after dt or the next day :)
I rat the belts...and usually i get a good fight out there when the occasional noob killer comes along...but gate piracy is crap....they arent cowards...they just dont have anything better to do
and since you got better things to do than lose a ship....log out
