"Ganking doesn't need a purpose, the gank is its own purpose. You don't ask why a field burns or a plague spreads. Don't ask why I gank."
In memory of the Mobile Tractor Unit shenanigans, several of the internet spaceship thugs behind the New Order, the Belligerent Undesirables and other sources of carnage and chaos in EVE would like to invite you to an evening of carnage, chaos and tears in the Sisters of EVE level 4 system Apanake this weekend.
We'll be hunting down extravagant mission ships, chasing carebears into missions, reducing their hulls to scrap and harvesting expensive modules and priceless tears from the wrecks.
With special celebrity fleet commander Psychotic Monk, and a large stash of free gank Catalysts, a great time is bound to be had by all.
Loot will be sold, and proceeds used to repay those that sponsored the event (currently myself and Erotica 1, but only to the tune of a billion or so between us). Excess will be distributed between players involved - two shares per hour for your first account, and one share per hour for each additional account. Tears will be shared equally between all involved.
The time: Saturday Feb 1, 2000 hours EVE time until very, very late.
Meeting place: Come to the Apanake system, set up a personal safespot, and we will operate from the Apanake station until we encounter resistance. If we encounter resistance that makes using that station dangerous, we will use alternate locations in the immediate area.
The communications channel: "Burn Apanake" channel in-game. We have TS3 comms organised, for opsec reason these are not being posted widely but will be available to anyone that can demonstrate that they are not a 'white knight' to Psychotic Monk's satisfaction.
What we want: Catalyst pilots (low or high skilled), Vexor pilots (high skilled), Thrasher pilots, experienced podcatchers, scouts, people with experience with combat scanning probes (anyone that's lived in a wormhole in particular), and even total newbs in light tackle.
PVP and fleet experience is optional - we will take people happily that want to learn to be a bastard in EVE as well as those that have been bastards for years.
-10s are welcome. If you are highsec legal and want to return to that status afterwards, avoid illegally shooting pods and I'll be happy to help you regain sec afterwards in the nearby lowsec areas.
Highsec is worth killing for.

If you want to mine in highsec outside rookie systems, obey the New Haliama Code of Conduct or else the New Order will gank you. www.minerbumping.com for more info. |

You forgot Methodists.
Everything in EVE is a trap.
And if it isn't, it's your job to make it a trap...:)

There is a level 4 sisters agent 3 jumps from Hek. It's a much better location. The bears are sent to several different 0.5 systems to earn their loyalty points. It'll be easier to sort concord and you can have multiple irons in the fire if you utilize that particular system.

Willing to try that in future, but Apanake is also surrounded by many a 0.5 system. Sosh, Sigga and Apanake itself are all 0.5. And for various reasons the New Order already had significant numbers of gank ships close by.
If Apanake dries up, I'll move the second half of the festival.

I'm not sure I follow the logic of burning Apanake when Osmon has twice the targets but I'm down if I can find some time this weekend. |

Osmon sec level: 7
Apanake sec level: 5
This means a potential difference of CONCORD arriving on-scene in approx 10 seconds in Osmon, vs being on scene in approx 19 seconds in Apanake. An extra few volleys from the cats in that time can mean all the difference :)

Maybe one of the organizers could put a post in the WH section of the forums. Let the wh folks know you do and would appreciate thier scanning abilities. They aren't all that big on sec status either, so you may pick up a few guns also. Just a thought. |

So let me get this straight.
Because CCP did their job and removed a bug, you are going to go out and harass as many players as you can just cause the removal of said bug makes it SLIGHTLY harder to kill people.
To quote an excuse from one of you New Order guys, you have plenty of ways to gank...use them.
But don;t whine about it with some poxy 'burn Apanake' event. Makes you look like you are 4 years old. |

Its a form of player protest because every day CCP slowly makes more concessions to carebears and makes it JUST THAT MUCH more of a single player game.
Here in C&P, we are about group activities, such as the one being planned for saturday. If you dont like it, get a fleet together (youll need to do this non-solo) and come to the party. You also wont make any ISK. (OH GOD!)
Missioners: make sure to petition all of your losses. CCP will totally whisk your ships back into exsistance because ganking is cheating/exploit and CONCORD is suppose to make you not die.

I'll spell it out for you.
It's nothing to do about making ganking hard. It's got everything to do with the fact CCP removed a mechanic that allowed emergent game play to occur. Worse: In doing so, CCP removed the mechanic that favoured only one type of player: AFK HiSec mission runners.
They removed a fun part of the game to help a portion of the player base ... not play the game.
Awesome.
TL;DR: Don't reply. |

ESS is new emergent game play but yet people want them to be removed

Actually, no.
In my personal view this inspired action is about the bigger picture, protesting against the constant water-drip drumbeat of nerfs CCP keeps doing on its new quest to bend over whenever a carebear loses a ship and petitions, as they seek to acquire moar WoW-reject subscriptions.

There's plenty of ways to not get ganked, use them instead of whining to CCP.

I'm inclined to agree 100%. Many of us like myself have sit in silence as CCP has slowly swung the nerf bat on high sec PVP in general. Their backing off on the MTU mechanic as intended appears to be the proverbial straw that has broken the camel's back.
I and many others have raised our concern about this in this forum and have received no response on why CCP changed their minds. Although I did witness a thread locked in general discussion that was CCP's way of trying to censor our concern and keep us quiet.
Now we're going to act on it. |

I think them removing that mechanic from the mtu is the right thing to do. I also believe that ganking people in high sec is funny as shiit, so i endorse this venture.

To put it in perspective for the detractors of this event:
1. To not go into limited engagement the players had to set their drone settings correctly. That's it pretty much for them not to get ganked. It's really simple step, it's not complicated.
When surprised by their ignorance of how something works rather than learn how to properly use something new in the game it was easier to complain until the thing they don't like gets nerfed by the game developer annoying people who liked it the way it was.
In my opinion ignorance followed by outrage brought on by their own ignorance should not triumph over people taking the time to learn and use the game as the designers intended.
2. If running ganks is how a group wants to play the game - whether for protest or fun (or both) then be grateful that they warned you it was coming by posting it here.
