Not sure if this belongs here, but here goes anyway...
I thought the tech part of this was great. I will give that to CCP [cheers]. However, one thing I question was the ability for Jita to truly defend itself. When the Goons started to attack, eventually everyone outside the Goons' Corp/Alliance should have been able to shoot them without CONCORD intervention... example...
1) A Character ganks and gets nailed by CONCORD. The Character comes back and does it again. After a certain number of times of doing this, 'anyone' outside the Character's Corp/Alliance should be able to shoot them on sight 'anywhere' for a reasonable amount of time. If they want to gank, then let them. Just know that people will be waiting to nail them when they come back. Right now, the gankers are given the immunity to strike when and where they want... and only the Characters they shoot at can respond. That, inm, gives the gankers a distinct advantage which I do not believe is fair.
2) If a certain amount of Characters within a Corp are flagged for ganking as above, then the Corp itself as a whole becomes flagged for anyone to shoot... again for a reasonable amount of time.
3) If a certain amount of Corps within an Alliance are flagged for ganking, then the entire Alliance itself gets flagged.
I read once that when someone gets the first shot off, they have the tendency to win in an equal 1v1 PvP encounter. That in itself gives the gankers a distinct advantage... because they get to pick and choose their targets and when to strike. If these gankers continue to gank, then fine... I have no issue with that. Where I have issue is I cannot shoot them unless they shoot me first. I cannot defend anyone against them and I cannot take preventive action against gankers when they show up. That is where I have issue. They want to gank... fine!!! This is Eve!!! I support that action. But give me a decent chance to fight back and leave their butts hanging for once. The playing field here needs to be leveled in some way.
