I just don't think a criminal should be able to hide in a highsec station. Maybe instead of being concorded, make it so they can't dock up and they can't safely log out of the game for a period after a gank. Maybe they can't even use a gate for a while. So they are always fleeing and hiding. Would probably be more fun for everyone involved.
Yes spending 15 mins warping from safe to safe with my egg sounds like a ton of fun, please sign me up.
Well you are a member of CODE and therefore a roleplayer. So do the crime, do the time. It's not very realistic letting mass murderers hang out in a station after being publicly identified by authorities.
I don't really have a problem with the suicide gankers, as long as they actually follow their RP or at least sometimes go for ta rgets that have a chance to dust them instead. AFK freighters and toons old enough to fly a barge but refuse to throw on some tank or completely AFK it kinda deserve what they get. They should fly smarter.
What I do think is kinda stupid, is suicide tankers being able to undock, pop a target in 30 seconds, dock their egg back up for 15 minutes while they salvage on their scouting alt, and then head back out and immediately do it again.
The ganker loses maybe 3 mill on the catalyst while they destroy at least 20 mil-30 mil on the coveter or the the retriever. Being able to dock back up just makes it too damn easy.
I have a better idea for those who want to RP as criminals. Its more immersive, and adds a level of realism to the game. Actually create a punishment system instead of sec status loss (which is lame because -10 is like an award).
1st Offense - Gankers market price ship value is given to gankee as compensation. 2nd Offense - compensation plus "jail time" (two hours of logged in time where no skill point increase occurs and the character is stuck in a penal station) 3rd Offense - compensation + 3 hours jail time.
And so on....
Of course their would need to be some form of rehabilitation Available to the offending player so their toon is not worthless after so many offenses, but if CCP is going to consider it a crime in highsec and have space police, then make more realistic.
Plus I think this would separate the true CODE members who want to RP and actually teach a valuable lesson to rookies, and the jackwagons that simply want to grief.
Just my .02 isk. |

I think we even have some of the special people among us who laugh at people doing such a thing in a roleplaying game. They're still good people, though.
Ahhhh. Didn't know that. Just know I've seen a lot of the James 315 references. I still stick by the rest of what I said though. Its just too easy to undock, dust someone, and then dock back up.
And I kinda feel that's almost the same as an AFK miner. The character is just sitting there until its time to be used For a single purpose. Alt gankers press their F1 button to blow up a venture like a minor switches targets only after he has wasted 80% of a cycle and hears "Asteroid is depleted".
The gank toon gets to sit in station completely safe until it is time to switch rocks.

So again, someone is asking for game mechanics to dish out the punishment. Again, the measures will have a more severe effect on newbies since multi-accounting gankers will be much more efficient at circumventing these measures. The skill point freeze is ridiculous to begin with. First of all: gank alts are mostly specialized chars trained for flying specific fits and after they reach their goals they don't do much training anymore. Second: I'd just switch my training to another char b4 ganking. But you're prolly gonna suggest the skill training stop should be 'account wide' or something like that now... 
Hell no I wouldn't suggest account wide. If someone can circumvent that then props to them. But there are gankers out there that multibox and don't just turn off training after they can fly t1 fitted cats. And yeah, I do think game mechanics should take care and offer more protection for noob pilots, especially when they have less than a million skill points and are flying ventures to start their industrial path. If they are dumb enough to go solo mine in a coveter and jetcan then they deserve what they get, but too many gankers are nailing ventures and frigate miners because noobs don't know any better or don't yet have the skills to sufficiently tank their ship.
And no...I don't feel bad for posting that. Maybe you should "feel bad" for wanting others to face consequences for gameplay choices (which can at times can be an extremely expensive screw up) while you face minimal penalties for your actions. Maybe instead of gankers being able to dust a toon every 15 minutes they should have to wisely pick their targets and make the gank worth it in terms of isk and time.
I'm not asking for ganking to stop by any means, I would just have more respect for it if the ganker had to actually put some forethought into it.

I'll keep saying this: ganking requires a hell of a lot more effort than mining, missioning or other favorite carebear pass times. You're just like every other whiner about ganking: "No, ganking should be viable! But we just need one more nerf cuz it's really too easy and profitable now! Just ONE more nerf, I swear!". As for ganking noobs: good, we need more of that, not less, teach them to lose ships and how to avoid losing them while they are young lest they turn in to whiny little bitches 
And I'll keep saying this...pressing the undock button, flying to the asteroid belt, clicking approach and pressing F1 to pop a venture in two cycles and then docking back up after waiting a bit at an unaligned safe spot takes no more effort then mining or running missions.
Its like some of you who want to only grief others just don't understand how business works. Star Citizen is not too far off and WoW is getting ready to drop a new expansion (lol @ WoW all you want, I do), and the trend in the gaming industry is for a gentle ease into player vs player combat.... Not getting ganked by more experienced players in the first week of play. Just pay attention to rookie chat sometime and count how many potential customer say "effe it, I'm out" when they have been ganked two days into the game and lost most of their assets. I understand the "it's Eve", but if this game doesn't find a way to better transition toons into actually being able to defend themselves, then new games coming out (especially Star Citizen) is going to take a huge chunk out if its player base.
Hate carebears all you want, they make up the large part of the gaming community and pay the bills. And at that I'm done in this thread. No point in trying to talk sense or have a logical discussion on this topic anymore.

After what I saw this weekend...I retract any previous anti-ganking statement I made. Gank on! Dingleberries floating afk in jump freighter's, frieghter where the pilot says they have been afk for 20 min because they "had to poop". Complete lack of common sense. The anti gankers kept repping freighter's with drones (as if that's enough have them), complete lack of organization and constant complaining. Absolute extreme paranoia because of an image posted of their chat...but then give out the password to EVERYONE.
Gankers....gank on. I'm starting to think that is the only thing that will encourage players to do their homework and learn the game. |

Honestly Veers you just need to move to null.
When I first started playing this game I had the WRONG mindset of "GrrrrrGankersGrrrrr" Because the precious games I had played bred a wuss attitude. Then I slowly started accepting that ganking, thievery, and general chaos are an essential part if EVE. So I moved to null sec for PvP and friends. I prefer the fleets and small frigate roams over ganking.
You know what's different from us out in null taking out a domi or navy issue bling bs with a pack of frigs as opposed to a group of catalysts taking out your bling in hi sec?
The guy who gets ganked out in null isn't a sissy who goes and whines on the forums. That's the only difference.
Please Veers, EVEmature like I did and realize you are choosing to pay 15 a month for your dreaded hi sec priblems, and quit trying to insert more currburr into the game. |

Dude you don't properly analyze anything. It's like it is impossible for you simply say "this is the game I choose to play and it operates like this...".
I hate to call someone fail at gaming...but you are getting close buddy. Quit asking for tons of changes to the game. Adapt and enjoy your 15 a month, or find something else that makes you happy.
And as for the tanking discussion....yes, 10 or 12 dessies should be able to pop your bling BS. You know why? Because that's 10 or 12 people playing the game TOGETHER. Plus destroyer's are meant as high dps with low tank. Run with a crew of AF's if you want protection from the big bad gankers.
And quit telling people their arguments have no weight just because you don't agree. Just adapt to the game and have fun instead of trying to be that pickle faced aunt that always comes over for Thanksgiving and expects everything to be her way. |

That is risk mitigation. You are the one demonstrating risk aversion, and a disgusting level of it in fact, by wanting to have your Machariel's tank tripled just because it costs more. Nevermind demonstrating a staggering level of ignorance as to how EVE's cost/benefit ratio works, and the concept of marketing. That's funny because I fly a 5 billion isk battleship all over highsec, and yet somehow I'm risk averse. But the dedicated -10 gank alts who never undock in a ship worth more than 100 mil, are not risk adverse, but "risk managers." Touche.
Way to put a GANK ME sign on your back.
And BTW Veers...I'm not a ganker. I'm a pvp'er and still pretty young in this game, but at least I now "get it". You really need to just accept the game the way it is and you will have more fun.
In all honesty those gankers have every right to target people with the blingy ships. Just because you invested way too much isk in your ship doesn't make you immune to the same thing that everyone else deals with.
Actually...I kinda hope they gank you now. If I was super rich I'd pay the cost of your BS for a code killmail. Instead I'll just hope they do it and offer to replace the catalysts used to bring down your navy-issue-rattlesnake-decipticon-battleship that's brobably painted pink and has those stupid stick figured on the back window.
I don't want you yanked out of any dislike...I want you ganked so you get to PvP with people. |

You are welcome to come try and gank me....better bring a whole bunch of buddies, might need the entire CFC to pull it off.
(A) I'm not CFC. (B) I have lots of buddies that can fly bigger and badder ships than you. (C) when I log in I don't bother with ganking. When I log in I'm busy defending my corps home and very right to hold sov, dodging people who want to kill me when exploring, or hunting people like you who fly ships that are way too expensive.
Why do you play a PvP game again? Because you do understand that's what this is right? A pvp game.
You can fly a ship like that around all day, but that newbro flying a little atron around pulling tackle, flying with no implants, and laughing hysterically with his buddies on comms, is ten times more badass than you and that overpriced ship you use to target little red crosses and click f1.
And as for the CFC...if they wanted you ganked it would happen. No matter what you were flying. I'm pretty sure 500 catalysts would get the job done.. And I'm positive they could field that if they wanted. |

Dafuq did I jut read over these last few pages? I thought this was a thread to cry like little girls about spaceships getting blown up... Instead I'm reading good ol' Veers talking about the hoosker doos and hoosker don'ts of completely fake money in a completely fake game.... And he's even getting it wrong. o.0
Can we please get more legitimate whiners back in the thread? Cuz you know...thinking sucks on forums. |

Except us non-elite types have to contend with nullsec having absolutely no mechanics that deter people from shooting us. This is called "more risk than highsec". When you have an omnipotent reaction force that deals with any kind of offensive action by bad people (and can't be tanked, killed or evaded in any way) that's called "much less risk than anywhere else in the game". I've lost my elite to mere mortal dictionary so I apologise if I've not communicated the above clearly enough for you, Grand Beers Veldspar, elite interwebs spaceship pilot. Yes, except that in the blue donut there is no one for miles around actually trying to kill you! So yes the mechanics provide for unlimited risk, but how risky is the result if there are 0 hostiles utilizing them? Keep trying, buddy.
What? Seriously.... What? Have you ever lived in nullsec? Sure there are empty systems, but in no way is high sec more dangerous than null sec. Let's see...
How often do you have tactical points around gates you normally use in high sec?
How often do you have to check Intel in high sec?
How many times have you gone through a gate and found yourself in a bubble of doom in high sec?
How many times have you gone through a gate and a stealth bomber drop a bomb on you in high sec?
...and the questions can go on and on.
High sec, even with CODE and other gankers running around, is so safe that you can travel afk and survive 99.99% of the time. Get real man.

Veers you have no clue what you are talking about. Null is not safe...at all...ever, especially in Catch where I live. Yeah we have hose Intel channels because it ISN'T safe you dingleberry. CODE camping two systems with catalysts does not make hi sec more dangerous than null.
You are delusional and full of it. Have you ever even lived in null? I'm guessing not. I'm guessing you went on a roam. Couple of times in a super deserted area and thought you were badass because of it. If null is so safe, how about you come hang out with us down in Catch around the EX6-AO area.
We would live your company! |

We would live your company! Why choose Catch as an example? Why not Deklain? And even better, why not the deserted renter areas in the East where the highsec miners go because CODE kills them too much in highsec? How dangerous is AFK Carrier and Ishtar ratting farmville? You are pointing out low population areas and relating that to all of null...yet you point at TWO systems in hi sec and think that applies to everything. OK...not just Catch. Go to Providence, VOLT, anywhere with people and see how long you survive. The idea that hi sec is dangerous is a complete joke and its almost as funny as you. Lame posts + delusions = Veersforum Except that MOST of null is low population. And MOST of highsec has suicide ganking. The blue donut has effectively strangled real risk in nullsec, except for the people who actively want and court risk. For the fahmas' its a heck of a lot safer and more lucrative than highsec. Delusional nullsec superiority complex + terrible factual errors = Trixieforum
Most of high sec has ganking?! False! Its something you hardly ever see outside of CODE systems. You are throwing around terms like "blue donut" as if you were some kind of experienced pro on the topic.
You know why so much area is empty? It has no strategic value. You can't measure the safety of an area by pointing to the empty spaces.
I don't have a superiority complex. I have not once claimed to be a PvP expert, unlike you with the ultrabad killboard. You just spew forth tons of lame and can't back anything up. Do you really feel that bad about your care bearing that you have to build a little fantasy world where you live on the edge of danger? Its sad Veers. Really sad.

Oh Trixie - I'm sorry you don't like my pic, once again pleasing you is one of my key goals in Eve. Yes, I love the PvE content....a lot more than PvP roams, etc.... Now when I PvE I'm also PvPing because I fit for tank to deter gankers, monitor local, etc... Like I said, I'm elite at both. It's unfortunate that you can't appreciate elite PvP, but I don't really have the time to explain it you. So good luck in your Ever career, may our paths never cross.
Trust me. One day our paths will cross. :-) then you can show me how elite you think you are. Then after you reship you can show me again. I love blowing up blingy ships. |

I don't operate by your schedule. I'm not a wannabe ganker either. You are already in the hot air department. It'll happen when it happens. I don't spend alot of time in high sec... So i'll come play EVE with you when it suits me...not you.
If you are so l33t why don't you come on down to my neck of woods. Oh...that's right...you wouldn't even survive the trip. You'd get popped within two jumps of entering null. I don't play in an empty pocket off in the middle of nowhere.

So to summarize - ganking you is too hard, you are too far away. I'll just stay in nullbear land and bloviate with empty threats. Have you considered joining CODE, they are also known for their elite PvP? You have some great blingy kills on your KB....nice job.
No. To summarize. High sec is boring. I go up there maybe once a week to play with a RL buddy. And why would I join CODE? Are you f'kn illiterate? I said I'm not a ganker. I also said I'm not elite PvP...I'm just...PvP. I only shoot little red crosses when a few extra isk sounds good.
YOU however claim an awful lot and have shown NOTHING to back up your claims of eliteness. Nothing. Nada.
Anyway, I'm sure we'll being seeing you at some point in the future. You have a great time in your little bubble of delusion. |

Spot on bud. I expect to lose my slasher every time I undock. I don't care about price tags, I care about getting kills for my alliance bros and gals. I may not be "l33t", but I put my 3.01 mill sp to good use. Also I think Veers missed the BS kills, along with the NI Raven. May not be incursion bling, but its enough bling to make someone a dummy for flying it within range of us.
I really think Veers has inadequacy issues. Its the only explanation for thinking that you are an elite player and thinking that hi sec is the most dangerous part of the game. And to claim being elite when your KB has less than 100 kills, and those kills coming from piggy backing off of other corps and alliances, is just flat out the opposite of the claim.
Once again, high sec is by far the safest place in the game unless you actively pursue wardecs. Being able to afk it through 99% of the systems, being able to dodge wardecs at will, having fake police deter the vast majority of threats, and being able to move system to system without needing Intel or worrying what's on the other side proves it. |

I'm really surprised this thread is still going.
Veers... If I ran a massive organization like the goons, you bet I would use a scam for recruitment. The ones that fell for it would be considered too stupid to get in. Period. Alot of this game is meta. If you arent intelligent enough to apply some common sense to your play it isn't the game for you.
Once again...if you autopilot all over the place in a shuttle then you are a dingaling. All over the internet ganking, scamming, and unexpected chaos is mentioned with EVE. Its not exactly a secret.
If you want a game to hold your half and keep you safe while you accumulate massive amounts of currency then play WoW or one of the other many rehashed mmos that exist.
You say that people leave the game because of it's harshness, and some may, but 10x that many will leave if this becomes Teletubbies in space.
No harsher punishments need to incur, people need to quit being a wuss and realize the glory that is EVE. |

You say that people leave the game because of it's harshness, and some may, but 10x that many will leave if this becomes Teletubbies in space.
No harsher punishments need to incur, people need to quit being a wuss and realize the glory that is EVE. Well, that says something about your moral values. Eve Uni (for all my profound disagreements with their hand holding) doesn't scam new players. Waffles (and trust me, I'm not a fan) doesn't scam new players. Being a nasty and miserable person isn't part of the "meta," it's just, well...pathetic.
How dare you question my morals based off of hypothetical actions in a video game.
People like you are what's wrong with gaming. You associate gameplay with reality way too much.

Veers... If I ran a massive organization like the goons, you bet I would use a scam for recruitment. The ones that fell for it would be considered too stupid to get in. Period. Alot of this game is meta. If you arent intelligent enough to apply some common sense to your play it isn't the game for you.

Veers appears to be of the "your actions in a video game are a reflection of you in real life" school of thought, which IMHO makes him one of those people that have problems differentiating between fantasy and real life. If you tie that in with his arrogance, despite his evident ignorance, and sense of entitlement there's a while smorgasbord of words we could use to describe him, most of which appear in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders.
Couldn't we just refer to him as a lawyer? |

When you are l337 you don't need no stinking reasons. What you say goes! When you can kill a comet with a cynabal then your opinion matters. Amirite or amirite?!?!

None of you can argue with Swordmasters OK. That level of L337 is not obtainable through peer to peer gameplay. Only those that have conquered "the tiny red cross" technique, spreadsheets, docking up, and giving hugs to space police have the game experience, the guts, and the moral compass to become one with the forums.
All us scrubs need to step aside and let the real player tell us how this PvP game needs to be handled. |
