.
The freighter kils i had seen after a goonie linked them had none to sht drops and if i would add all 8 i was shown the griefers would be 'working' with a loss.
Offcourse i did not see all of them so might be profitable , the total loss for the victims was high though , verry high.

I'm all for ganking if people like doing it , it is part of eve.The only thing wich allways has concerned me is the throw away negative sec chars.That goes for the freighter ganking now , the hulkageddon thingy and all other previous forms that we have seen .
Easy to fix though , characters with a -sec stat can not be removed from your account until they are positive again.Should be able to implement such a thing in a few days is my guess IF CCP wanted to since they claim to be against recycle alts. |

We have never used disposable alts, we simply put them on the sec safari.
As said , but just to be clear , i'm all good with ganking it's a part of eve so if it's done with a char wich goes through the sec grind later on then by all means enjoy your freighterkills  . |

- Never autopilot (yes it's boring, but I'd rather be bored than dead) warping gate to gate at your computer very much decreases your chances of being ganked. (personally I used to autopilot with an empty cargo, due to the fact it's not extremely profitable to destroy an empty freighter but some individuals don't even do that)
- If you suspect you have been scanned, dock or change route to avoid any 0.5 and 0.6 systems
- There are intelligence channels for certain areas of high security, especially in uedama and niarja, join them
I'm sure many others in this thread will have additions to this list including scouts, but I find just those three rules keeps most pilots alive for months at a time. I have never lost a freighter. Agreed. The map tool is great to plan routes free of risks...I honestly think that with a bit of planing one could even find a calm route through 0.0 and autopilot an Orca for several jumps.
'll just add that from jita to the south it's about 15ish jumps to hit your destination , now set that autopilot on avoid uedama and it will be 45 jumps  .So avoiding it is doable but takes a crapload of time.
There is a much easier way to do this even through uedama ....
The surest way to remain poor is to be an honest man ...-á |
