Roc Tazinas will say Hi from Sol! ;)

Who wouldn't want to awox you in his bed? ;)

Nice looks. (:

Grats, I guess? The funnier one would have been Joel Freon, who whelped a T3 cruiser the other day.

I think routinely ganking empty freighters is pretty stupid. There is no defence against this other than not flying freighters. Going down this path will definitely result in a further nerf to ganking.

Everything should have a counter. It should be carrying a cargo value below the ganking threshold.

Is there a point to that nonsense, or would you like me to highlight how it's still more effort than their victims have ever put into the game?

Found him APing at the gate to Uttindar, in Hek.

His name pretty much was the reason I came after him,
just to make him say Hi to you. xD


He lost a few skillbooks on his way....

EVE has a reputation for being brutal for a reason. Most of the time, EVE is all about finding a weaker target and then mercilessly crushing them. We all win some and we all lose some.

Do you realize that this thread is only encouraging people to go gank empty freighters? Asking gankers to live by a sort of bro-code will not end well.

Considering I know some of the victims mount tanks and attempt to avoid ganks only to be bumped on the gate by a rookie ship long enough for the "real pvpers" to come in and press f1...

Bumping a charon is trivial. You can bump a freighter with hobgoblins for god's sake.

But yeah sure tell me about how every single person who is ganked was afk piloting a non tanked ship with +4b in their ship's hold...

Still doesn't change the fact that I accurately described what is involved with being the ganker while you resort to silly caricatures..

...exhibiting bot aspirant behavior...

Obvious hyperbole does not help your case any. It just makes it look like you don't have any left to argue with, but you want to keep arguing.

Undock. Activate autopilot. Congratulations, you can be a hauler.

Pointing out something that requires low effort is not a good strategy when you are trying to defend something that requires even less.

I was not making a "value judgement" about ganking but rather commenting on the inevitable, self-defeating outcome of such action.

Uses a function built into the game exactly as intended
Accepts the associated risk inherent with using that function
Doesn't use keystoke repeaters or other outside input automation
Is somehow still "bot aspirant"

The real problem is some people just have too many alts and too much isk.

Not a single drop of hyperbole in there. Hobgoblins can bump freighters I've done it to myself.

I'm not trying to defend anything.

Subscriptions are up. They've been going up, despite everyone claiming that this sort of thing is "killing EvE."

Ganking is at an all time low. I am old enough to remember what pirates used to get up to in high sec and today is nothing like the slaughter back then.

If people honestly think that blocking low-sec-status people out of highsec (or even highsec stations) wouldn't have a significant effect on players simply quitting, remember that the reason CCP put tags in for raising sec status is because enough people were simply quitting EvE instead of trying to drag their sec status back up.

If they cry on the forums about how low sec status people shouldn't be allowed in highsec, is that really "accepts the associated risk" to you? I'm just curious about that.

Oh, this should be rich. Go on, please tell me more about how a drone can bump a freighter.

Actually, yeah, you are. Your exceedingly bad carebear apologist post history makes that pretty clear.

]Did they all do that?

Do you have proof of this?

The OP did, which is kind of the point.

So this was limited to the op? Not to any of the other freighter pilots ganked while on autopilot?

Oh my.. this thread is getting good.




X up for popcorn refills.

I love how the first thing out of your mouth is to ask for proof of an assertion, and then make a crapton of assertions based on nothing more than your own specious anecdotes.
