Man up, get with the program and stop posting like a petulant child.
Nobody in Eve owes you anything, if you want protection from suicide gankers then it's up to you to take the initiative and provide it for yourself, just like those of us that already do provide for our own protection. There are plenty of example of how to do so in this thread, you're either blind, wilfully ignorant or a troll, at this stage of the thread I'm going with the latter, rather than either of the former.
CCP have provided you, and everybody else with the exact same tools and mechanics, the problem lies with those that can't find the damn toolbox even with a map, a guided tour and ping skyscraper sized flashing neon arrows. That would be people like you.

One of us has to. Quote: How does this not imply that the only reason you don't gank in more expensive ships is because of the popo? Did you mean concord? You must see how that is confusing. It's only confusing if you don't realize that there are other ways to lose sec status than ganking. And there are low sec status pilots out there that are not suicide gankers. I would wager to say the majority of them. So, what it "implies" (as opposed to what you incorrectly infer), is that I believe that the people who cry about how gankers always dock up until they find a target are hypocrites for defending the very thing that makes up a large part of why low sec status characters stay docked up in the first place. And that I think you'd see more low sec status characters undocked in open space if facpo were removed from the game for everyone except faction warfare characters. Quote: You cry carebear but ultimately you're the one docked up watching netflix waiting to go out and shoot a gunless freighter with zero concern if your ship comes back or not but when it's worth less then 10mil why would you care.

Well forgive me for not making that jump in a thread dedicated to high sec ganking... You know also a very common profession to lose sec standings and far more related to our conversation and the thread in general. |

No.
Ganking is not a problem.
Wardecs are not a problem.
Non-consensual PvP is not a problem.
The problem is, that certain subsections of the community (carebears) think that they are immune to damage.
They cannot grasp that we play EvE in a cycle of...
Create.
Destroy.
Create.
Destroy.
Create.
Destroy.
Perpetually, until the day the servers shut down. Anything that can be created...can and should be destroyed.
That includes...
-Barges -Exhumers -Freighters -Industrials -Destroyers -Frigs -Cruisers -Battleships .... You know what...
Just about every ******* thing in EvE. 
And at least if people are gonna whine....
More pssshhh. Like Pssshhh Level 10, at the very least.

And this is absurd. Those Freighters have no chance to align and warp off. In the meantime the gankers form up, warp on grid first at warp in range to the Freighter, CONCORD shows up, they warp on top and gank. More CONCORD shows up. This will additionally create lag. However. This is just my pov. CCP has to look into this because at a special point this kind of gameplay might be an exploit. Sorry for starting a rage thread from this point  Yeah but its not. See BUMPING: A Response in C&P for the official line on bumping You want to align fast and not get ganked? Get an escort and use the legal "exploit" that already exists Bumping is the only issue I believe that should be looked into. Even with a escort all you have to do is just bring in a second mach pilot and you are going to get bumped, also as much as I would love to say this is game where you play with other players, it should not be a necessity when it comes to flying a freighter / JF. If the only way to avoid getting bumped is to use a "legal Loophole" then something is wrong I honestly have no idea how the mechanics could be changed but what I do not want is to see any kind of official ruling that bumping is not allowed or anything silly like that. I can understand the frustration when you being bumped as once you received the initial bump you are as good as dead, well it is out of your hands at any rate.
If your flying solo its possible that they may be bumping you towards a warpable object, In that case just warp to it and your free. Fit a DCU and 2 bulkheads, it gives you somewhere in the range of 600k ehp on a freighter.
Your hauling stuff in a freighter, you shouldn't be alone anyway. 3x webs or a bump in the right direction will get you into warp very quickly. Its not unreasonable that capital ships (and freighters are capital ships) should not be flown solo and unguarded.
Check your route though highsec, if a system has alot of kills in it, even in highsec, avoid it. I know it might be 20 extra jumps to go around but hey it will still take less time then letting your freighter afk autopilot the trip.
Jump freighters you have no excuses at all, you can jump to the nearest lowsec system to your destination, land on the gate and jump into highsec. after that just avoid the systems with high kill rates.
Honestly is any of this so hard that people refuse to do it. Freighter pilots want to be killed if they are not doing these things.
Stop complaining that its unfair, or that bumping shouldn't be allowed. It is allowed, CCP said it was, time to adapt.
And before anyone says anything about me being just another ganker, check my killboard. I don't gank people. But I do find gankers to be very useful in punishing the stupid. |

That's an impossibly blanket statement. Personally, I lose some and I win some (feel free to look up my killboard for some examples). Ganking has taught me a lot about keeping my own stuff safe, for whatever that's worth.

Clearly CCP does not object to this.

The first word I thought when I read this was "Boo". Guess what the second one was. It rhymes with boo by the way.
Also, turns out that if you choose to be a prey animal, the predator animals will try to eat you. The interesting thing is that, unlike real life, in a videogame you can just decide to stop being a deer or a water buffalo.

And why is that?
Because you cannot be cost effective or know how to counter?
Don't know how to use logi?
Don't know about ECM?
Smartbombs?
Gank on Gank tactics?
Or is it more...
I need more blue mods. -sniffle-
I need more green mods. -tear-
I need better isk per hour. -cry-
You are certainly not deluding Falcon. As he has said some people just want to watch the universe burn.
Agents of chaos, so to speak.
Don't get upset because your lack of :effort: keeps you from being effective.
Then it just becomes entitlement.
And entitlement is devoid of pssshhh.

Nah, I just break it down sentence by sentence or phrase by phrase so that people who have had the same things said to them in 20 million threads about the evils of ganking, can actually clearly understand the point I am trying to make.
I do not have the time to do the "Logic Wall" fatality that Tippia has perfected. So I use "Logic Wall: Literal Wall Edition."

You made me write a somewhat paragraph. Shame on you.

It can be argued that stopping you from changing locations could be harassment too.
The wording in the quote states "However, persistent targeting of a player with bumping by following them around after they have made an effort to move on to another location can be classified as harassment," Trying to warp out is clearly "making an effort" to change locations |

While that is an excellent name for a freighter protection agency, it just wouldn't work. You'd make much more being crooked as people have said. The people who get ganked are generally too ignorant to both recognize and pay for dealing with a threat, and permits are already available for the low price of 10m ISK.
It would be nice for CODE. to actually have some competent antagonists though, just for the sake of the sandbox.
Suppose you want to put a stop to them. Easy - gank the bumper ship. Not once. Not twice. Whenever you can. Even if you don't pop it, you have already won. Think about it for a second. The problem is that there is no reward for doing this. CODE. is doing a great job and keeping HiSec clean of garbage.

I am not linking direct to the killboard, but his group (mostly his corporation "The Conference Elite" and a few others, suicide ganked freighters, many of them empty or carrying nothing of value. They also targetted other ships of value where they could cause a large isk loss to the player, even if they were certain to get nothing out of it for themselves.
It used to be just the freighters carrying too high value cargo that were targetted, but now, even empty ships are targetted.
I personally don't care if changes are made to fix this or not. It doesn't affect me directly, I do not use frieghters or other high value ships. This is just an observation I made, a line was crossed when they started targetting empty ships just for the sake of it. Is it time for change?
A -10 character, or a character with sec status below the accepted system minimum requirement should not be able to chain gank people. They should be barred from boarding a ship in high security space, or at least barred from entering warp in any ship except for a pod. It's exactly the same as when a concord flagged player tries to undock in a ship or board a ship, concord has you blocked from activating your warp drive. If concord can already do this, then there's no reason why they can't do this automatically to players who fall below the minimum system security status. They can still travel through empire in a pod, they just can't chain gank people. It's stupid that concord would allow this to happen.
