No lol. I don't even understand why you are asking this when you're in a mercenary corp of a high sec ganker alliance.

Bacon......... That's why!

...Reason why IGÇÖm asking is that a char has requested a gank of ten times or more on a NPC char and in my head this is bordering a petition from the NPC char for harassment and breaching EULA rules?...

Not the clearest of answers but:

Essentially it seems the answer is "use common sense". If you are disrupting someone's play continuously and they report you, you could get banned. It seems it's mostly about picking on one person over and over causing them distress.

I mean if you think about if from a CCP point of view. If you harass 3 people, and they all stop playing, CCP loses 3 subs. If they ban you for harassment, they only lose 1. So don't disrupt CCPs dollar and you are alright.

My opinion, if the character you are going to 'gank' ten times or more is a new player... that might be Crossing the Rubicon.

^^ Pretty much that, but even then, it's iffy. Just don't be this guy: http://eve-kill.net/?a=system_detail&sys_id=5360 GÇö stay away from people in newbie frigates in the newbie systems, and don't make it so that they can't play the game.

Why isn't that guy banned yet?

If people make no effort to move to another area it is not harrassment.
If you have reasonable expectation of profit it is not harrassment.
People ragequit EVE all the time and CCP are well aware that the real meaningful losses are also why they still have a game 10 years down the line.
Is hiring mercs to clear a system of rival miners harrasment?
Is Test being hounded out of 3 regions harrassment?
Is the guy who brought 3 unfitted ships to the same FW plex over a 2 hour period able to claim harrassment?
Is hunting down corp thieves or awoxers harrassment?
Is war deccing random corps harrassment?

Almost nothing in EVE is deemed harrassment under the EULA although IRL threats are taken very seriously. People who gank miners are never banned but many miners have had temp/perm bans for the IRL threats they have issued. Same for awoxers and corp thieves.
Basically defend what you have, hide from people or accept your losses as a price of doing business.
Whatever you do in EVE you can find fairly safe places to do it in high, low, wh or null. It isn't other peoples fault if you don't try to do this.

Most likely because they're newbies and don't know the rules or the reporting mechanisms yet.

With the EULA rule advising that if a char feels he is being harassed by another char this is a ban able offence.

I kill npc's all the time. They never complain. Never even try to warp out. Anyway, it hasn't been considered harassment.

Reason why IGÇÖm asking is that a char has requested a gank of ten times or more on a NPC char and in my head this is bordering a petition from the NPC char for harassment and breaching EULA rules?.

A big worry is if a cry baby player complains often enough and loudly enough and/or threatens to quit or something equally as bad, would that encourage ccp to make a different ruling?

Have faith in the system!

7. Use of profanity is prohibited.

The use of profanity is prohibited on the EVE Online forums. This includes the partial masking of letters using numbers or alternate symbols, and any attempts at bypassing the profanity filter.

Under war rules it is different but if a NPC char is just trying to play the game can he or she petition this to be stopped?.
Would like some clarification thanks
