And please both of you note, I said I didnt have an issue with ganking and considering it myself, but it is far too easy to repair the sec status.
The returns of a gank are determined by the stupidity of the victim and a diceroll. Even then, a single gank is not going to have high enough returns to pay for the tags of every character involved unless it is a particularly lucrative gank. Twitter: @EVEAndski

Din' read most of thread. I play EVE because ppl can blow me up whenever. Period. Lot's of it's charm would be lost any other way.
That is why I "play" (carappily) EvE.
I recently bought a bunch of T1 hulls to guess what? Blow them up. When I hae some play time I'm gonna fly them into FW losec and get shot. Because that's what you do in EvE. Why would you play otherwise?
I use a AF for lvl 2's. Why? Harder to gank. Faster to warp and in warp. Farther from warp in beacon. Use a cruiser do missions faster they say, no safer this way. Slower too but safer (not sure on slower really). TLDR; EvE is fine join for the right reasons

I'm surprised there is so much focus on sec status. It's the 30 days of kill rights that are the PITA. If the gankee sets them reasonably low, then they make it difficult to operate.
I ganked mission boats for a few weeks a while back. Keeping my sec status positive was easy. The kill rights were the issue. I couldn't fly my gank ships from a trade hub to the gank system. We ended up needed out of corp haulers to get them there. The there was the issue of having the kill rights activated as you moved in on your target.
The kill rights I liked were the ones that were too high to be worh anyones trouble to activate. 100mil isk kill right on a pilot in a naga just isn't worth it. The 1 isk ones were also ok. Just hop in a noob ship and have a buddy clear it. You want to hurt the gankers activities - make his kill rights available to all and then choose the sweet spot where the costs of self clearing it hurt his bottome line, but the value for someone else to activate it are just fine.
The more active a ganker is, the lower the price point. |

They would be dumb not to use it. The null blocks have been using it for years.
CCP should (I'm being serious here) have a little faith in their game and not listen to the (fill in threat of mass exodus from the game because of..... here). Eve is a good game. Folks won't leave. When null block leadership exclaim all the folks will leave - what they actually mean is all the lambs will leave their tax reaping herd and find their own pasture. Same for HS. Folks will adapt/endure.
The Monty Hall effect is what kills long running MMO. When the day finally comes where everyone has everything they want.... we'll all look around, find the game boring and leave it. More isn't better. More is the path to boring. |

We used a 5 or so man crew and ganked a couple of times per day. So if you had to purchase kill rights to clear them at say 25 mill / guy. That's 125 mil per mission cream puff. We were doing it to see if we could turn a profit. Weighing the cost of ships vs loot fairy blessings..... adding another 125mil per CNR would deffo make the profitability math tougher.
Too low = we clear it ourselves Too high = no worries (no one will buy it)
Just right = complicates business plan immensly.
We used tier 3 BC to take down mission boats. If you're using a dessy to pop a miner or a lone tornado to pop a fat hauler the math changes a lot. For what we were doing - a well aimed kill right was troublesome. Not a deal breaker, but we'd have to move our price point on target fittings.

Additionally, because of the level of pansification displayed in starting an entire thread on ganking when CCP has repeatedly validated it as sanctioned gameplay, the victim was summarily beheaded after an inspiring 10 second countdown in Oursulaert local, as warning to all who may spread further heresies against HTFU.

Talos & pod loss From: Feyd Rautha Harkonnen To: [readacted per pansification policy #324093403943093220]
Hello [readacted],
I just wanted to take this opportunity to help clarify the rationale behind your recent Talos detonation & POD loss.
You see, carebears filled with nerf-hisec heresy and wielding petitions instead of Antimatter are polluting the EvE O forums with their wailing and gnashing of teeth. These heretics would have CCP throw baby out with bathwater by doubling-down on previous nerfs, to implement further theme-park WoW-ification modules or nerfs for the ADD rejects from said game.
Your end, was sourced specifically by the heresies of '13 nonames'; please contact him directly for refund of your ship & pod loss, as a full measure of carebear altruism.
If you have any questions, your inquisitor 4KICKS (and myself) stand ready to answer them, up to including you in our asshat training program so that HTFU and Kill-it-Forward can further spread throughout empire.

Exactly. I don't understand why people don't get this. 13 nonames, you should thank them for doing that and helping you to learn how to tank your ship. While the New Order roleplaying is sometimes a bit overboard they actually are trying to help you. Because now you will adjust your play tactics and probably won't have that happen again if you fit correct and use the intel available to you both in and out of game. If you were involved in the Eve community and read blogs on it, you would discover that the New Order has been ganking Freighters/JF's in Uedama and Aufay for some time now. This is why there is no sympathy here and why (hopefully) CCP will not nerf ganking. All the tools are there for you to use.
Or of course you buy a permit. |

You should really learn CONCORD mechanics before calling other people stupid and posting stupid drivel yourself. Gankers in a 0.5 have at most 25 seconds to kill you, not 1 minute. You also need to prespawn as many CONCORD ships as you have gankers. 1 CONCORD spawn means only 1 ganker gets the extra time.
Since your orca was fail fit, you made their job easier. Learn to tank your ship, and don't autopilot.
P.S. I hope you're not real attached to your corp.

Whenever I see a post like this, I search the OP on the killboards to see what they lost.
OP: Maybe if you hadn't turned your Orca into a grossly undertanked 700mil target, you'd have been less likely to attract people looking to blow it up. I mean, seriously, swapping out a DCUII for one of those lowslot cargo expanders would have made you far harder to kill. Reading Comprehension: a skill so important it deserves it's own skillbook.

Why do people ask for such things ONLY when they have lost a ship due to this and not before?You're playing since 2011 yet this is the first time you ask for this and it won't be a coincidence that the day you made this thread you lost an orca in empire now is it?
You knew about this tactic before yet had no problems with it untill you yourself fell victim to it.That is what i call being a hypo .

It's a game where we all play our own little mini game in , allways been that way and i LOVE EvE for that reason.That is the beauty of eve however it immediatly also is the biggest problem CCP has with it.You just have to keep an eye on every type of gamestyle being possbile without effecting the other play style too much.
I think i have played out allmost every playstyle there is in eve except for ganking/incursions/wormholes and i can not remember complaining at any time that ''my playstyle'' needed some help in regards to be safer from another playstyle.I allways try to keep a reasonable look on the ways others play too and as such usually more hang towards ''nerfing'' my own playstyle then that of others.
The question is though , when is one playstyle becoming too much favoured towards the other that it needs CCP to come in between and in that regard i am happy to not work at the CCP office ....
