They then drive prices up while at the same time destroying the economy and the competition thus they will make insane amounts of profits. It all has meaning, this was never about "fun", fun is not to gank people afk or that are noobs, it is about the GREEN! It is a pretty damn smart move.

Repeating someone else's jab is passe and not very creative 1) No one was whining. I'm not slamming my fists saying CCP should do something to change it. It's EVE, so be it, as you can see I have never been ganked, so how the hell can I have tears for it. I'm just observing that something has passed it prime and it makes me YAWN. It's not news-worthy. 2) I wasn't repeating YOUR jab... I was repeating mine.

Urgg Boolean Center for Advanced Studies Gallente Federation 30	Posted - 2012.05.01 15:46:00 - [26] - Quote This is definitely flame war territory. IMHO the problem with suicide ganking is that the punishment does not fit the crime. You can commit murder and the only penalty is a ship loss plus a reversible sec hit. Those who gank Hulks lose very little, and in fact, murder is profitable. Many claim murder to be a mini-game. It's not the same level of play as the salvage mini-game at all. Murder has insufficient consequences. Okay, fodder for the flame war along the lines of reciprosity for murder: 1) Eye for an eye, tooth for a tooth: Concord should react with equal force, meaning if the ganker pods the victim, Concord pods the ganker. If the ganker only blows up the victim's ship, Concord stops with the ganker's ship. 2) Permanent, non-reversible murder count: you can still work off the sec hit as now, but your permanent count increments to a point that, if you keep murdering, eventually you will be Concorded if you set foot in Hi Sec. 3) Send NPC assassins after the murderers for some added fun. Think of it as PVE content for gankers. Murder should have real consequences if carried in Concord proteced space. Targets of opportunity, like the famous shuttle with a bazillion PELX in it, fine, or some juicy freighter with 900Km3 of morphite, fine. Grudges/payback, fine. Griefing, fine. Lo/null as is. But murder with virtaully no consequences in Concord protected space is just not in the spirit of EvE's risk versus reward credo..

You commit "murder"... to a group of immortal superbeings that literally cannot die. Lets have a bit of perspective here, Capsuleers never have to worry about real death. Human morality quite literally does not apply to them in this way. Attempting to apply in this way is nothing more than a transparent attempt to dumb down the game's PVP mechanic, yet again, and make highsec "safe."

WTF are you on about? Griefing is fine but griefing isn't? Most gankers go after people who don't play the game. Myself, when I'm out solo in an arty Thrasher looking to drop more sec status, I like to scan down a Retriever and warp to 0 on the belt. Then I motor in on them, not even bothering to get a lock until I'm ready to F1. Most of them warp off. Those that don't weren't playing the game and lose a ship. I popped some auto-piloting pod on a whim and learned a hard lesson in what systems to avoid when you have low sec status. I also learned that the faction police will scram you; I once felt stupid for having instas on my high-sec homes, now they're proving their value. NPCs in this game are pretty merciless, unlike a miner/missioner with kill rights. +1 in local

Most gankers go after people who don't play the game. -snip- . I am not against griefing. Nor am I against taking out AFK macroers/botters. I am against the fact that ganking has insufficient risk to the perpetrator, yet can provide good rewards. My only real argument is that ganking in Concord protected space should have real risk. The sec hit is easily worked off, and ship losses are trivial. Good reward + virtually no risk = so many players argue against this, except when it comes to ganking ... does not fit the EvE philosophy. Like I said, flame war stuff. The counter argument is that miners have all profit and no risks, which I cannot contest, except that miners don't generally blow up other players and thus cause direct losses.

Diomedes Calypso Aetolian Armada 73	Posted - 2012.05.01 18:16:00 - [37] - Quote "Destroying the Economy" is a bit grandeous ... but there in lies some of the joy ... the tongue in cheek grandiosity (for people who take their posturing seriously, I feel sorry for your lack of humor.. its a game like WWF wrestling... Hulk Hulgans plays a character) The most that could happen would be to create a little turmoil in the economy and change the economy. Even if ships cost 3 times as much or 10 times as much even, you'd just have changed the economy, not destroyed it. Its not like players will be out of work without food for their families or roofs over their head.. there are stations and missions and all sort of other things that they'd make some isk doing under a different difficulty level imposed by piracy.

Diomedes Calypso Aetolian Armada 73	Posted - 2012.05.01 18:36:00 - [39] - Quote Couldn't you conceive of a game where Developers chose not to have a "high sec" ? It is all arbitrary game design choice how much NPC and mechanics protection they feel like putting in place in different areas of their virtual environment. --- Is it lame that there isn't a place where ships are safe 100% of the time ? Is it lame that you need to think about how you play to make sure that you profit enough from sucessful trade runs to pay for occasional losses ? Was it lame when 19th century whaling fleets lost a fair percentage of their ships at sea but more than paid for the losses with the sucessful ones ? Is it the fact that another player is at the other end of the risk that bothers you ? (why does that bother you compared to losing to an NPC or pefect storm etc... ... ) As for the Role Play.. there are these things called pods and clones that prevent too much lasting damage. The Concord issues ? What state has universal protection of its citizens from robery and so forth. Given the medical clones you have it's hardly murder.. just a property crime. Concord has managed to ban weapons of mass destruction Capitals, and block cyno's in high sec but they just don't seem to have the resources to immediately and intantaneously resppond to anyth threat. They've gotten it down to 10 seconds though. Somehow they can't seem to stop criminal pods from moving around.... they must have gotten suckered into signign some Geneva convention making government shooting or detaining pods a crime against humanity.

Whether it's killing something ridiculously expensive or watching the internet drama unfold as the victim cries people seem to have fun doing it. If any sane person can find shooting rocks entertaining I'm sure even more people could find playing terrorist equally amusing.
