TL;DR

Don't waste your time reading.

The fight between Anti and gankers happens everywhere. You will find all types of people in Eve. The goal of the Antis is to stop ganking. The goal of the gankers is to gank.

A chance to gank the gankers? Where can I go to sign up??

1. What's the goal?
2. What are they trying to protect? Miners only or other ships too?
3. System wide action? Whole constellations? Are there "protected" regions?
4. Is there a group with actually larger following?
5. Any religious RP types?
6. Only self righteous losers or actually people who can be taken seriously?
7. Are there actual PR efforts and if so, why don't I know of it?

I am a Hacker, and this is my manifesto. You may stop this
individual, but you can't stop us all. After all... we're all alike.

TL;DR


1. Either "justified" murder or "protect the carebears, they're human too!"
2. I dunno, I would say carebears because they're great targets
3. See 4.
4. I'm not sure, there's probably some groups that go and protect the carebears, I would say it's more like the type of "group" the hackers manifesto refers to. To quote,

So I suppose it's more of an idea of free carebears and each individual just eliminating the gankers when they can.
5. Like crusaders? I dunno.
6. You may be able to find a few serious people. I plan to start SBing them on my main soon, I'm in it for the highsec kills though.
7. PR? If that means player rights, you have the right to HTFU, use your kill right and go -censored for fear of ban-.

Thank you for your post.

PR is Public Relations. Like James does it or like Goblin fails at it.

You plan on discoing? Who where what?

So does this mean that gankers are anti gankers at the same time? They gank targets before other gankers gank them? Or do they gank would be gankers before they gank a not ganker?

It's like stealing, finding something for someone before they lose it, was it that way or the other way around?

I have a few of these "anti-gankers" following me around as I go on with my ganking business. They tend to limit their activities to insults in local chat, as well as sitting outside stations in cheap frigates trying to tackle me before I warp away.

Most commonly they claim I am actually a sadistic transvestite psychopath who gets off on the misery of others. I'd post some of the chatlogs, but I fear they may have far too much foul language for the audience of this fine forum.

Thank you for your contribution!
If you could tell where this is happening, it'd be nice.

I know this type btw and mentioned it in my initial post.

I once podded Gevlon (I think it was Botslayer Goblin but can't recall TBH) so does that make me an anti-ganker or a ganker?

I have no idea what Public Relations is or who Goblin is...

Anti-gankers try to stop gankers (like the name suggests). The better ones use ECM to drop a gankers targets mid-gank so they get concorded for nothing, but some do run around shooting at gankers where they can. There are chat channels and they are full of spies, but for the most part the channels are there to exchange info, like gankers alts for warpins and whatnot and some areas where gankers are operating, etc. There's not much spies can do in those channels as all info is taken with a pinch of salt, it just gives a central location to pool info.

The Red Queen is alive and well in EVE. If you have more cautious penguins who can spot a brown polar bear from a distance, eventually the system will present a white polar bear. I think it's one of the most beautiful things in the game (besides the complexity).

Thanks for this.

Nothing new, but that's okay.

Are there any actual serious ones too or only those who restrict themselves to miner protection?

I consider this to be pointless rbh, but can't exclude them from information gathering.

I never see him any more, but a guy called The Saint Tsero used to cause us some trouble in his Falcon. He was amazingly good at figuring out which miner we were going to gank even when using cloaky warpins. There were a couple of others, but since he was always around when they were, I assume they were his alts, but could be wrong. But if The Saint was around, ganking miners was going to be a lot tougher.

I think his secret was that he was just as dedicated as we are. He wasn't thinking about the isk/hr he was losing by sitting in his Falcon for hours. He didn't start watching youtube videos just because there wasn't any action for 10min. And above all, I think he did it because it was fun, not because he was really interested in helping miners.

I've been for some time now hunting gate campers with some friends.

They're all quite stupid and their spots easily predictable, but their rage is twice the regular carebear rage.

So I'm guessing anti-gankers are just looking for the same: Gankers tears, which are probably twice as tasty as carebears tears.

Sincerely, it amazes me how players took so long in this game to start an initiative against such easy prey

There's a guy in this character's corp who has been creating all manner of epic lulz by popping people with killrights on them, getting Tornado kills in scanning ships and the like.

Funnier than hell if you ask me.
