I could spend months always warping to a celestial on every gate and then the one time i slip up boom. Even when the bully is not around i have to waste my time just in case.
So it's not the mechanic, it's that you're just a bit too lazy to bother playing well? I don;t think i'm paraphrasing, you literally just wrote that didn't you?
EvE is a game where the wheat is separated from the chaff by various game mechanics that are just annoying enough that not everyone will bother. This leaves the lazy vulnerable to the dedicated and is one of the main selling points of EvE for many of us yes.
Don't be lazy team and you'll be on the winning team.

Let me buy an expensive ship and i lost it in pvp and I think thats unfair.
Here is what you do, fnd a system that is frequented by smart bomber, normally in system with gates that are very low or high on the system grid. Make a safe point 200+km behind the normal enterence to the gate, check things out, if there is a flert there, warp to 0. If you dont have cloak and they have interceptors? Warp off. I its a smart bomber warp to 15 on HIM and kill him, you're a t3 cruiser, and hes a smart bomb fited ship, put him down.
Dont look at him as an obstacle, look at him as an objective. |

the problem people aren't seeing with gatecamp smart bombing is.
1 is afkable pvp of the highest caliber, it doesn't matter if its 1 ship coming to or through a gate or a whole fleet.
2 it completely cuts off low or null sec, I haven't been able to go to a low or null without running into one of these bombers, you cant warp at range if you are coming through the gate.
3. its not always as simple as you think of just warping at range and killing 1 person, sometimes its a whole fleet, sometimes its a super.

I agree with the general thrust of OP Xzanos`s argument. Whilst those of the opposing view have made some good sound points, in my own personal experience its just too much effort to use celestials and pings everytime I travel between systems. Just my humble own opinion. I get that others have differing views |

I do not mind null-sec pipe bombing tactics using drag bubbles and dictors. But i do not think you should be able to activate smartbombs on a gate your even a station.
while you are at it, why not also deactivate guns for everyone in lowsec for your safety? |
