No, but you can stop illustrating it by pretending to not understand what the GÇ£whyGÇ¥ in question was in relation to.

That's the problem: they just did the opposite. The rendered corp wars completely obsolete since you don't even need to jump corp any more to get rid of them.

This leaves ganking as the only available means of attacking people, for whatever reason, and if this change is intentional, they're breaking the balance of that tactic as well.

Oh wellGǪ with a bit of luck, it's just a bug (and with a bit more luck, they'll reverse that policy change once it gets abused enough).

And you can stop pretending that he didn't answer your "why?" in his response.

on a side note,: Tippia just got successfully trolled with one of the oldest troll attempts on the interwebs, which is repeatedly just posting 'troll'.

Or, put another way: why should I assume things rather than to strive for certainty?

This and Dec Shielding. EvE does not condone griefplay anymore... what's happening ? it's truly the end of the world.

Why not go the whole hog and refer to it as "Tippia in Tears". Everyone loves T i Ts right?

It's obvious you will cheerfully ignore that which is certainty.

You can't even wrap your head around the comical illogic of insurance payouts for what the mechanics of the game deem to be illegal acts.

"How so?" you say.....and normal posters slowly shake their heads and silently mouth..."what the fu.....?"

How does eve not condone grief play any more?

No. It is just that I cheerfully don't assume that something is a certainty.
Of course I can. It's just that I can also see the logic of having mechanics in place that makes no real-world sense if they benefit gameplay. CONCORD is another such example: it is utterly illogical, just like insurance, but it serves a purpose in the game and thus has its place.
Yes, GÇ£how so?GÇ¥, I say, and thus probe for knowledge, in whomever made the claim, about what the purpose of insurance is in EVE. If all they can think of as an answer is some real-life comparison, they are overlooking what the insurance is actually doing, and thus their assumed lack of logic is in fact a lack of perspective. They are arguing game mechanics without considering the game mechanic.

CONCORD is another such example: it is utterly illogical, just like insurance, but it serves a purpose in the game and thus has its place.

Still trolling.

If it's "utterly illogical".....how can it "have its place" and "serve a purpose?"

Please....explain why CONCORD is "utterly illogical."

At last.. now let's all sit back and watch the griefer tears..

The real tears will be from the miners when they find out that gankers actually do not give a crap about insurance.

Crap. my bucket is full..

/gets new tear bucket

Can't have enough ganker tears!

Wait, you mean Poetic Stanzeil was right? Score one for the tinfoil hatters.

Hilmar said he wanted to make CONCORD smarter ... I suppose those smarts was invalidating insurance claims. :)

This won't put an end to ganking. It won't put an end to ganking for profit. Nor should it. Ganking is a valuable part of this game. But gankers will have to use a couple braincells in their target selection. They might even have to create a spreadsheet. ;)

The real tears will be from the miners when they find out that gankers actually do not give a crap about insurance.

On our end, we might have to increase our bounty payouts and throw in a slight cushion for flubbed ganks, but this will not put a dent in our campaign in the /slightest./

(The only real solution there is to give the barges/exhumers more CPU/PG so that they truly have the option to fit a tanky setup, rather then the choice right now of "one piece of tin foil" or "two pieces of tin foil" on the Mackinaw. You can fit a better tank on a T1 industrial then you can get onto the more expensive T2 exhumers.)

I am gonna go a head and doubt that letting every Killer have free reign in the space they killed is the most sensible thing about them.

Sensible would be coordinating off the wreck setting the perp to -5 and sending him on his way out the door. I am sure Suicide Ganking would go down quite a bit. Which is exactly what the Police would want.

But that would be a lot less fun then smoking some dudes Barge in a Rax.
