I'm relatively new to Eve so I may be misunderstanding something really basic.
From what I can gather Eves economy at the basic level revolves around the destruction and construction of assets, why are the people who are doing the dying and complaining not making money hand over fist from the market opportunities an activity like ganking provides?
If stuff explodes there is a need to replace it, minerals need to be mined, stuff needs to be made, hauled to market and sold to do so.
Miners, haulers, manufacturers and traders should be rubbing their palms together with glee at the oodles of space money to be made from it. Sure they'll suffer the occasional loss, but overall if they grabbed the opportunity with both hands they should be able to profit considerably. |

Done with this game. I would greatly appreciate any donation of your unneeded stuff.
Also wrong thread, you appear to live in lowsec and nullsec, suicide ganking doesn't happen there. If the Cormorant was the sum total of 3 months work you're doing something wrong, also are you going for the Guinness World Record for most pods lost? |

Quote:"The boards weren't combined until 2012" - no problem just look at 2013 onward Which kind of invalidates your claims for 2011 and 2012
Quote:"Wardecs and other" - as mentioned this should remain consistent throughout the data sets. Why should it remain constant, going by all the screaming going on wardecs are on the increase, and have been for some time.... Dirty griefers 
Quote:"We have to use cheaper ships right meow because nerfs" - between 2013-2014? They do use cheaper ships now, and more of them. From what I can gather you used to get an insurance payout on your ship when it was Concorded, it was common to see battleships used in suicide ganks. Now that there is no insurance payout the gankers have gravitated to smaller and cheaper ships, the downside being that they need more of them to bring the same amount of firepower to the party. Which means that the amount of ships that got killed by Concord increased, what it doesn't mean is that the rate of ganking has increased.
