CCP Greyscale should fix double wrapping rather sooner than later, since he already decided he would do so eventually. |

Pirates were shot on sight. You fail to see the point in High Security space.
You are a pirate? Why are you there?

So instead of teaching people how not to lose ships or how to be financially secure with a lose in a game where with the right asset management you can survive and prosper you instead want to nerf that aspect of the game.
EVE is Darwin on Crack in Space Battleships in a War with a 1000 Player Factions and 4 Empires. There are other games that offer stuff that isn't EVE.

People get robbed in first world nations too, they just removed Death as a thing that can happen to victims and assailants and incarceration as a Penalty.

Then, for one, why do you care? Secondly, Goons have never bothered me. Thirdly... I know it's unimaginable in a game like EVE, but Goons are players too, and have the exact same mechanics available to them as every other player. FYI, my corp has a freighter pilot who runs stuff in and out of Jita frequently - specifically, a Charon. He's never lost the ship, not once. He's been attacked, even webbed, but never once lost the ship. He's flown the same one coming up on about 3 or 4 months now.
You don't scare me. I've been to Jita. |

Macks need to have their tank reduced to that of the hulk. Still very tankable but if you fit nothing we can make enough of a profit to make it last over a long enough timescale to make our isk. |

You are a pirate? Why are you there? Interestingly, they do get shot. Have you ever seen a gank in hisec where the pirates didn't get shot?
I think you're missing the point of hisec, where it's supposed to be high security, not perfect security.

No I think it is you who does not get high security space. Highsec is not ment to be 100% safe.
As to why we are in high sec? Well good sir, we are are pirates and we want all of that isk. |

Most Goons never leave Deklein. I have no issue with them. I'd have no issue if they chased me out of Deklein. I wouldn't have an issue if they chased me out of some low sec system in Khanid space.
Why do I care?
I've been playing for 7 years. I like EVE. I like it rough and tumble. I just have enough self control to moderate my bad behavior. It's called being an adult. |

I wish the old Super Mario game had Dev's. There was this one level where I always died because there was one space of land between two long pits and I usually fell over the edge.
If Mario had Dev's I could just complain until they move the winning flag right in front of that post. Maybe also start me off at least Big every level. |

Actually, yes, I have.
The Talos pilot was afk, and the Thrasher came in and flipped one of his wrecks, then did this. Then I congratulated him on a smooth kill, and he flew away - I had front row seats to the whole thing orbiting in a Breacher at kiting range just incase he came after me.
Serves him right IMHO. AFKers getting ganked is not a huge loss, and they have nothing to complain about if they're AFK when they come under attack. SAME GOES FOR AFK FREIGHTER PILOTS ON AP. You don't scare me. I've been to Jita. |

You know, if you actually wanted to pretend you're "an adult", you would be mature enough to see EVE for what it is, i.e. a dark and harsh world where unconsented PVP happens even in hisec.
Notice the word "high" in hisec, not "perfect". Suck it up. Cyno's lit, bridge is up, but one pilot won't be jumping home. |

Let me be more specific.
How much - in terms of ISK would a mass suicide gank event require per average mack killed, considering losing the gank boats, selling the drops etc? IE what's the "deficit"?

How one plays this game does not in any way reflect their maturity levels. Let's not go making that mistake. There is no such thing as "bad behaviour" in New Eden - it as an alternate virtual reality that has no bearing on the real world. If you want to make passive references to someone else's RL maturity without knowing anything about them to begin with, then I would suggest it is you that has some growing up to do. You don't scare me. I've been to Jita. |

And I still make more sense than you, clinging to this half baked idea that EVE can work when people don't use self control to restrict the damage they do. I'm out numbered here, being ganked in to the ground and while I do care, not enough to fight battles CCP have chosen not to fight.
If it's OK with them, it's OK with me. You still missed the point in me debating you. Maybe EVE is healthy as a horse. If so, carry on. Maybe this is what they want. |

10 to 20 million per mack when attacking them in a 0.7 system which is where most of them live.

I just have enough basic intelligence to be sensible in what I risk so as not be bothered or effected by attackers.
If everyone had that then problem solved. For the minority who don't, I would rather not have the Devs move the goal post and lose the people who take time to plan things out. There are a bunch of games for the few idiots where everybody is a winner, EVE is for the sensible.

I still don't see why CCP hasn't tried to remove Security Status gain from 0.0 ( and possibly hi-sec ).
There really is no reason why CONCORD should lower your sec for destroying ships in high security space, only to reward it back when you go to kill rats in lawless 0.0 space.
Now if people had to regain their sec by ratting in low-sec instead ( where CONCORD actually needs you ), there'd be a bit of consequence for their unlawful behavior in hi-sec, and a bit more activity in low-sec  |

You don't get it - self-control has nothing to do with it. What you seem to be failing to realise is that when one commits to a suicide gank in high sec space, one is in complete 100% self-control. The only person losing control here is the one that's making references to others' mental states and maturity levels based on how they choose to operate within a virtual sandbox that has no consequences in the real world.
Makes me wonder how you feel about people who play Grand Theft Auto - do you suppose they have "self-control" when they go for that six-star wanted level by popping a couple of virtual old ladies on the side of the road? You don't scare me. I've been to Jita. |

They've buffed concord numerous times over the years, and on dec 4th they're going to extend the possible protection detail from "just" the corp to the everyone who's nearby.

Not even the smart, just the sensible. You would think so, but CCP is heading down the path of Trammel with the buffs to mining barges and the introduction of "you do anything illegal in hisec and everyone can shoot you scot free" which'll come dec 4th.
I'm sure even that won't be enough for a lot of people, though. Cyno's lit, bridge is up, but one pilot won't be jumping home. |

The bottom line here is that freighter pilots need to get their **** sorted and adapt - stop flying on AP; stop flying AFK on AP; start setting bookmarks; stop using the automated route planner and start planning your own routes; randomise your routes and never fly the same one on the return trip; stop carrying plex; start using scouts and escorts.
Those, amongst dozens of other steps you can take to protect yourself in transit, are what will solve your problems, freighter pilots. Not putting you in more cotton wool when in high sec systems. You don't scare me. I've been to Jita. |
