Well what are the options in EvE?
1. Stay in high and do the most boring missions imaginable with a vanilla fit so you don't get suicided.
2. Go to low and get ganked, gank.
3. Go to null and join a huge coalition that's doing nothing but gank or run anoms or sit at gates twiddling fingers.
4. Go to a wormhole and be bored and occasionally gank or be ganked.
Ganking is low brow, it attracts the worst players to the game. Low numbers are probably a symptom of a sick game. EvE needs a total reboot. A reevaluation of whats the biggest pool of client prospects, is it griefers, scum and scammers or regular normal players.

It is legitimately a "Bad Game" and if the inherent edgelord piratey/space game of thrones crap wasn't in the game and this suddenly became a theme-park MMO it would be the absolute worst one and would be free to play then canceled within a year.
Look at the sub numbers after any great tale of treachery/murder reaches the MSM. They go through the roof.
EvE is a business. If CCP had the choice to get rid of all the skinny pale nerds that take out their angst against the world here in EvE with rude, trolling and abusive behavior in exchange for double or triple the number in decent human beings they'd' do so instantly. At the end of the day they're in this to make money.
I agree with you on one point, EvE is supposed to be a bad game, its supposed to be ruthless, cruel and dangerous however over the years that in game behavior has transformed into out of game behavior which is unacceptable to the average gamer.
In the early days we had characters like Tank CEO, who were ruthless, cruel and dangerous but they didn't cross the line into harassment, abuse and hate on the forums, on TS, didn't suggest people killed themselves, didn't follow people around for months trying to get them to quit the game.
When things got out of hand due to patch creep, such as the ability to insta-gib a ship in high sec, they game was changed to prevent that from happening.
You're basically a newb so you don't know what EvE was like when it was popular. I do and so I know you're incorrect.
