But the thing I love about these kinds of threads are the masses of people who say "Get a t2 hauler, get a freigher". To them I say, idiots. You honestly expect characters who are a few months old to just pull a freighter out of their arse? Please.. A t2 hauler sure.. why not.. that's only the cost of a BS or less/more. They're not that hard to get as long as you don't take into account the amount of time and skill
T2 haulers cost 30-50 mil last time I checked. Explain to me how one can afford hauling high end goods that cost hundreds of millions and not be able to afford the ship?
As far as time and skill goes. It takes longer to train to use a cruiser to its full ability than a tranpsort ship. As I said earlier, if you are already advaned enough trader to move such expensive loads take your time and train for the darn transport.
Its really simple. You can keep hitting your head against the wall and lose hundreds of millions over and over again, or you can train for a transport and become successful.
Removing insurance payouts for CONCORD ganks will not solve the issue. Hell, there was a thread earlier about "recon ships high sec piracy! Something gotta stop cause pirates move their recons into mission runners' smart bomb range". Now imagine if there was no insurance payout. People who keep whining instead of acting will alays find something to get upset about.
Enforcing bigger security loss for high sec attacks is not possible unless you change the whole security loss/gain system. Besides I don't see why the punishement should be any bigger if somebody decided to gank a hauler in high sec.
I am 3 months old and many times i had to haull 300 mil of stuff that occupies less than 1m3; it's not that i can't afford a blockade runner, i can't fly one.
So yeah ... there are ppl in this category.
So far i haven't been ganked but i also haven't hauled anything afk.

From the eve information page :
"There are starting areas for new players where you will be safe until you have gained enough skill and experience to venture out into the wilder, more aggressive areas of space."
Guess they lied 
Gank Piwates in high sec should not get insurance.

Hmm why not have some fun and run BPC's and 1 units of zyd around in empire high sec space in your haulers. If it was not profitable then pirates wouldn't do it. Don't forget you get kill rights and know exactly what the enemy is flying and their fit. If they use smart bombs then web them and stay out of 5km range and they loose thier ship for nothing.

Are there really new players carrying around hundreds of millions of isk in a hauler? Or are the pirates really going after new players in frigates and rookie ships?

Well heres a quick fix to your OMFGWTFBBQFISHSTKS IM DEFENSLESS freighting problems.
First off dont be afk. Then instead of fitting nothing but cargo expanders strap on some sheild/amor hardners to your lil indy (Badger MkII's work best imo). Youll take a beating but live through his short attack as concord and sentries waste him. Leaving you free to motor up, loot his can, and laugh ur arse off as you continue on ur merry way.
As for Security hits and Concord reaction- Eve is a totally free for all pvp game. Meaning anyone can attack you anywhere. The only protection you are afforded by staying in .5+ is that your attacker will loose his ship nothing more. If you cant handle that please unistall Eve and buy World of Carebears, farm copper till you have 10 gold pieces, and then hide in town for the remainder of you gaming life.
