After being sniped from 200+km by a gate camp of 8 'pirates' for the third time this week I'm going to whine a little.
1. Why don't these people get some dreadful disease and die?
2. Why doesn't anybody help us who can't gather a blob of friends in t2 battleships?
3. Why do these *******s call themselves pvpers?
4. Why is this not considered an exploit?
5. Why isn't anything being done?

Shut up you stupid whiner.
1. Get a covert ops ship
2. Position on a sniper
3. Jump though the gate and warp to your covert ops
4. They cannot hit you, you win.
Now stop crying.

1. Because they are mostly healthy people.
2. Because blobs aren't fun/profitable to kill one person.
3. Because they engage in Player Vs Player combat.
4. Because it is not an abuse of game mechanics.
5. What exactly do you want done?

YES... so that's what I should have done. It's so simple now. But I don't have the skills or the cash to even buy the covert ops skillbook... oh well I guess I'm just screwed

1. thats a bit harsh isn't it? it's only a game
2. because you've not paid them yet, mercs arn't free.
3. sniping is pvp, and they probably do other forms of pvp aswell.
4. why should it be?
5. there are already plenty of ways to avoid camps. check recent pirate activity on the map before moving through lowsec, use instas, etc.

The truth is that a group of 8 battleships sniping gates is probably quite hard to get rid of. You need a big gang of people, and organizing it takes time.
You should use instas in low sec.

Answer to all of the above:
Because they are lame.
The sooner you learn that, the sooner you can begin to ignore/avoid their kind and not give them easy ganks...
CCP has proven they will not make it tougher on carebear pirates.

How they choose to play the game may be different to how you choose to play the game but you have to accept that. Your stereotypical views of these people are quite funny but please stop thinking that every pirate is the same as every other.

they are making closer range combat more prevelant, that is part of the reason they made interdictors, so more fleets stay put. They will fix it.
@OP
you can use instas, look at local, use a scout (14 day trial in a shuttle works wonders).
Every low sec death is preventable.
but you know what i really hate?

Im not so sure they are making it close range. They will introduce 3 excellent snipers with Kali One. The Caldari even has a range bonus and the Abaddon has extreme dps at range.
I know they have talked about it, sure, but talk is cheap...
Oh well, we'll see.

I see we still have people who don't understand the difference between PvP (two players/groups fighting EACH OTHER) and PK'ing (one player/group ganking another one who doesn't, and quite possibly can't, fight back).

1. They like making you mad. They're succeeding, they'll keep doing it.
2. Get better friends? Or you know, scout ahead in dangerous space.
3. They're players fighting players. Just because they're not giving you a chance to kill them doesn't mean they aren't PVP'ers.
4. It's really not that big of a deal if you scout ahead. Losing ships sucks, but hey, welcome to low security. If losing a ship really bothers you that much, stay in Jita.
5. There's nothing wrong with it really, nothing drastic anyway.

Ultimately, its just semantics, since both are definitely allowed and encouraged in Eve.

1. Probably because asking them to die in a fire only gives you bad karma? Lighten up, it's a game :)
2. Some people do. They're called "Anti Pirates"
3. It is, indeed, fairly cowardly.
4. Because it's not an exploit?  Read the FAQ :) http://www.eve-online.com/guide/en/g16.asp
5. Because #4, #2 - People do, it's just the folks who kill these campers could care less about people whining about it.
If I can get past some of these ganks in a well setup badger mk II so can you.... were you flying an ibis or something?
Did you bother LOOKING at the map, or SCANNING the gate before going through? Playing EVE in "afk" just sets it to "easy" mode for the pirates :)
Please also tell the group that you were not on autopilot :)

The easy answer is simply that they want to make isk.
Belt hopping is not bad but is variable as to how much you make or lose. Gate camping is pretty good isk but very dangerous. Sniping is ok isk and resonably safe.

You would think that after getting killed by snipers twice in a week that you'd have learned the lesson...
To be honest I love the snipers, they tend to weed out the players we really don't want anyway, before they finish their trial periods.

One reason why EVE has such a small piece of the MMO pie, and always will.
It will be interesting to see what CCP's next MMO is.
If they want more of the pie, they need to change their views...

Welcome to lowsec, where you die the moment you enter. Use instas, check the map, and attempt to get a friend to scout for you and you'll be fine - that being said, having a small piece of the MMO pie isn't necessarily a bad thing.
I'd rather have 1% and EVE's generally high quality than 50% or so and live in WoW...

1: Expect a forum warning
2: Fight for yourself, or get in a corporation who will help you
3: They killed you, Thats them (Players) vs you (a player)... Player Vs Player ? get it !
4: Because its perfectly within game mechanics, You bears whined for sentry guns, Pirates adapted.

I got shot to **** by a gate sniper on my trial. It happens.
1) Why don't you?
2) You don't need t2 (fitted) battleships. You need persistence, skill and a blob. If you bring in 30 trial players, they could *****several of those campers.
3) They are killing players. Player. Versus. Player. I would assume that they call themselves PvPers because they are PvPing, and they know what it means.
4) It isn't an exploit. Nothing is being misused.
5) Why aren't you doing anything?

Okay, let's take a look. That popup message says that only as long as you stay in 0.5 or above, will CONCORD guarantee your safety from other players.
Note the word guarantee. Note how this rules out any possibility of being ganked in Jita while carrying bpo's in a shuttle.

Ignore the trolls. I can answer one of these questions for you.
The reason nobody comes in a fleet to help is that, the pirates usually have scouts and alts a few jumps in each direction. They'd know we were coming, and simply safespot or log off. We'd sit on the gate for 6 hours waiting/smacking... then leave out of boredom. The pirates would then immediately return.
The effort required is disproportionate, and revolves more around trying to outsmart pirates that are hopefully stupid... as opposed to outgunning them, which is easy.
For you to defeat these pirates is NOT a case of 'fighting' them in the traditional sense - they will just enjoy it. The best way is to try and create as much of an annoyance to them as they do to you. Try sitting on the gate warning every single person not to jump as there are snipers on the other side.

So Concord are lying bastards. That doesn't matter in this case, because there is no Concord in low sec, which is the important part of the message in this case.

Hm, even though I dont like sniper gate camps, it can be avoided. If they had 7-8 battleships, you should see their activity on the map ("Pods destroyed in last hour" filter). With instas you would probably survive too.
Lowsec is dangerous, especially in slow ship. I dont know if sentries limited range was planned feature, or if sniper's longer range is more like abuse of sentries bug, but they are reality so you need to plan your route carefuly.
Or dont go to lowsec at all, they will get eventually bored and quit the game for good.  (more likely you will meet them in Jita suicide killing your ship though)

Concord != the sender of the message.
And even if they are (don't have a screenshot), you have to be mighty stupid to read that message and think to yourself 'ha, this is bs, I don't believe this, I'm sure I'll be safe in low sec.'
But hey, if you want to use semantics to justify a whine about gatesnipers in lowsec, be my guest. It would probably be more effective to find some friends with a brain, and kill them or drive them off. Note that that would take effort though.

I will give you helpful advice, unlike some others.
You should get some bookmarks or make your own, also try to stay out of low sec systems that have a high number of ship/pod kills in the last hour (check map for this) as these systems could be camped, it's not an exploit but it's far from PvP, real PvP uses skill and tactics, simple sitting at 200km+ is silly and in some cases they are asking for trouble.
Also I would stay off the fourms if you need any help, try the in-game help chat channel for advice, these fourms are full of goons, some you have just met.

Well unlike some of the people above, I'm not gonna call you a n00b and tell you to get a life. Instead, I'm going to share with you how I plan to go pick up my Cynabal (150ml faction cruiser) in lowsec (with about 8jmps through lowsec preceding).
Take my alt (nothing to lose eh?) put him in a shuttle. Take him to the highsec system before the lowsecs. Make my clone at the nearby Medical Facility.
In my shuttle I will make bookmarks to every gate to and from the destination making Safe Spots along the way in case I get in a jam.
How many times will I get podded? Who cares! I could get podded 15 times and I'd still be under 100k isk total cost to get a 150 million isk ship out.
Once I get my BM's to my main, I will get in a condor with 3 nanofibers and 3 WCSs in cargo, perhaps some shield resists or other various tanking items and a AB (just in case a BM is off) use the bookmarks and hit my destination. Hop in the Cynabal, fit the items above and use the bookmarks. I make pretty good BM's so I trust myself to not mess that up. The nano's will align me quick to warp to make opposite gate camping near impossible. I'll be in and out real quick.
Still, its not foolproof, but it increases my chances of survival by 200% no doubt.

Try sitting on the gate warning every single person not to jump as there are snipers on the other side.
I am based in a certain Lonetrek system that contains a gate that goes from high sec to low sec. As a result it is regularly camped, and guaranteed to be camped on weekends.
One day I tried the warn people that there is a gate camp only to watch a procession of ships fly by to their deaths, many apparently afk. It was like trying to stop lemmings from running off a cliff.

I just took my alt through the jumps made all the bookmarks and even had a guy clear an NPC gatecamp for me in his battleship while I watched in my shuttle patiently. Yes, I saw a -10 and a -9.2 but what did I have to lose? So I got my bookmarks, now to get the ship into highsec.

YES... so that's what I should have done. It's so simple now. But I don't have the skills or the cash to even buy the covert ops skillbook... oh well I guess I'm just screwed
perhaps you shouldnt be in lowsec at all.

hat is why there is that little pop-up warning whenever you enter low sec, saying Concord will not protect you, are you sure you wish to go.
Eve is a lot like other MMO's, WoW included. in WoW, there is a PK switch, whcich can enable your character to go PK. Eve has the same thing, they are just called jumpgates. Going to .4 or lower, your purposly making yourself PK enabled.

1. Why don't these people get some dreadful disease and die?
Why would they?

Because instead of learning from your mistake the first time you keep making it and whining about it. This is Eve, help yourself.

3. Why do these *******s call themselves pvpers?
It is technically PvP but in real terms it is to pirates like a strange mix of mining and lucky dip, not combat. Boring as hell they sit and snipe at everything that comes by in the hope that somebody is hauling an expensive BPO in a shuttle. It happened once and has encouraged shuttle popping ever since. Some pirate groups also run killboards that score quite highly for killing shuttles.
No, I don't get it either but thats probably why I don't do it.

4. Why is this not considered an exploit?
Because it is not an exploit. Look up the definition of exploit. Next question.

5. Why isn't anything being done?
Option 1, go around it. Yep I do that from time to time ifit's not too many extra jumps.
Option 2, go through it. Yeah, I've run plenty of blockades. I live in 0.0 so I have to contend with bubbles, interdictors and intie tacklers on a regular basis. A handfull of snipers is nothing, it's just a matter of learning how to deal with it.
Option 3, get some mates together and clear the camp. Very easy to do with a covops or just a whole bunch of really fast ships. Trust me I know.
Bottom line, plenty being done. Just not by you.
