TL;DR: Yes
If you are piloting a freighter carrying several billions in your cargo bay, well that's just dumb. Every ganker in Hi-Sec will salivate at the thought of ganking your ship.
In fact, that is just what happened today in Poinen. Space Warriors ganked a 7.8 B freighter. I'm sure it was a well coordinated effort. They must have been cheering and celebrating as their own out of corp freighter was warping into position to collect the loot.
As the Space Warrior freighter landed on the wreck, one of our pilots was standing by with a Proteus. As soon as their freighter went suspect....well...we can only imagine that their comms went dead quiet. Their hopes and dreams of easy isk were quickly squashed. The looting suspect freighter died.
Local chat came alive as the mean-hearted gankers began to rage...lol.
After much laughter on our part, and many salty tears from Space Warriors, Space Warriors decided to wardec us! But before the war goes live, we activated a kill right on one of their Jita station campers and killed his tornado. Haha.
And the bonus to all of this fun is that we have a free war dec on our books. oh happy happy day!!
God I love this game!

To summarize my understanding of Space WarriorGÇÖs premises for their oh so salty tears: 1.god-like ghosting of suspect freighters is not cool. Only non-suspect freighters should be shot at. 2.Ganking is OG only when the gankers are doing the ganking. 3.Gankers should never be ganked. 4.Poorly executed ganking operations are never the FCGÇÖs fault. 5.Your status or membership in a coalition will always protect your suspect capital flying alts. 6.When gankers are ganked by other gankers, wellGǪthatGÇÖs just not right/fair. 7.Pursuit of Happiness are just a bunch of [insert carebear tears here] 8. Aligning your freighter prior to going suspect is totally unnecessary if you bring enough swag in your cargo hold.
Lols...I hope I'm understanding this right.
Here is where the plot thickens...I was wondering why this NPC alt was marked -5 to begin with. He was killed in a fight on Aug 3, 2014 providing logi support against the very same coalition that he claims to be a part of. Must be an error on the kill boards. InterestingGǪ

And i seriously doubt the coalition will dec us over your little so-called merc corp, but if so its certainly nothing we havent faced before.
Very long wars are started by underestimating us....just trying to help you. |
