People mission. People pirate. People show their prowess in high-sec duels. People fight for their region. But not you. You are a space grouch. Griever of space lanes. You wait patiently for your prey. A large freighter fat with goods and on a time-frame. You bump freighters just to make them angry. Until.... CAPTAIN CCP APPEARS! and you... are... bummed...
until... You open a convo and say. Hi, you see that jump gate? My name is gandalf and.... YOU SHALL NOT PASS (until you give me a substantial amount of gold)
Cheers (also this is approved by ccp apparently.) |

Because, as we all know, AFK freighters are going to respond to a convo.  |

To better encourage this tactic of engaging in irregular warfare against the hated freighter menace, I propose that we discuss which ships are best suited to this role. Perhaps optimal fits even? And most assuredly a discourse about which gates are better than others. With a chance of debate about certain locations versus others.

If you're doing it to the person with no other reason than just to **** them off, then yes it is harassment. But if you're doing it to gain an advantage over them, then it is game mechanics.
Ask a Gm. And 90% of them will tell you as long as you hold them for ransom its o-kay.

The GM's, if you are correct about their response, are full of crap. Easy to test the logic. Sit on the Jita 4-4 undock and bump every single ship off the station. Demand ransom in local. What happens if the pilot refuses to pay the ransom? Can the ransomer bump you for eternity? I doubt it somehow. |

Stabber, 100MN Microwarp Drive. Lowest entry bump vehicle with great results.
And if they "refused to pay ransom" then there are any number of things they could do. They could log, walk away, set autopilot and do something else, or wait until you got bored.

If somebody did this to my freighter (with the whole Gandalf quote) i would pay them ransom gladly to commend their comedy skills to be honest.

I've been pondering doing this for a few weeks... I think you'd want to use a Minnie BS for best results, but a Stabber is another appealing choice.

Confirming that doing anything unwanted to another player unless they pay you to go away is griefing.

For one, there is no consequence. EVE is all about consequences.

yeah they make auto pilot for a reason. Anyone that tries this on my frieghter alt will find themselfs talking to no one. Should I look at the screen and see it getting bumped. Then loging and reloging makes *******s go away. Either that or for luls I will just go buy a throw away phoon and have me some gank fun.
Always funny seeing a griefer in a pod and a white wreck. Hmm
This sigs has been removed due to the gross **** it showed.

this actually sounds funny, as i'm a: going to fly a fenrir with maxed skills. if older player experience is correct, then i should be able to align and warp as fast or faster than most battleships b: love it when the really rich guys who fly freightors get annoyed c: likely to do it myself, as there's no loss in sec status.

Hi,
It's a thin line that you're dancing on. But you're free to do so as you wish. Just be sure it doesn't enter the realm of harassment or griefing.

You just need police gangs that go after criminals. Rather than close the door on options you just open more to alleviate pressure.

Make bumping x number of times in a row concordable and you can ransom away. But consequenceless griefing is not what EVE is about.

It's not the 90% of them that count, it's the senior GM to whom this stuff escalates eventually whose decision counts.
So if you make habit out of it there is quite considerable probability that this ends with vacation from EVE.
