There doesn't need to be some New mechanic or new punishment. You just need to fly smarter than you currently do. Apparently this is way too hard for some people, who insist that "just one more nerf" will fix where all the previous nerfs failed.

And I don't want to hear whining about something that is easily avoidable by using that small pea pinging around in your skull. Guess neither of us gets what we want.

This game isn't a solo game specially crafted so you can feel like you win all the time. It is a multiplayer sandbox where there is suppose to be a criminal element in highsec. I am afraid you will be more successful dealing with that using in-game methods rather than trying to metagame CCP into changing the rules to your favour on the forums.

How would criminals operate efficiently in this game if they couldn't dock?

They don't really. They are forced to lug in POSes and fuel so that they can farm the lucrative PvE sites in wormholes which makes the effort worth it.

If you are suggesting that criminals should have to set up a POS, they cannot as the faction police will destroy them while they are trying to deploy the tower. Nor under your plan would they be able to dock in a station to buy a POS or the fuel in the first place.

So you want a new player who decides to play the game as a criminal to fly to nullsec, spend a couple hundred million on some POS that they can't even deploy in highsec.

Yeah, that's balanced. I can't see that having any affect on the number of criminals operating in the game.

Criminals are in the game by design. Suicide ganking is an intended mechanic; this has been confirmed by CCP many times. They are there to provide player-driven risk in highsec.

You are suggesting an "idea" that raises the bar of ganking to the point that only the most dedicated, organized and established players will be able to do it. And you have offered no reason for such a drastic change in game balance.

"Logic" is not a game balance reason. Far too many things are illogical in this game, starting with the infallibility of CONCORD itself.

Logically EVE spaceships could only fly in one trajectory, instead of like a plane

Logically the sun would burn a ship up, instead of bouncing off.

Logically the amount of 'near earth' planets in EVE would be far fewer

Logically going into a WH with a blackhole would mean death

Logically you shouldn't be able to zip between solar systems.

WHO WANT TO BE LOGICAL AND TRAVEL AT LIGHT SPEED TO JITA AND AMARR


NOT FUCKIN ME

I hope your brain doesn't explode from the implausibility of it all.

And you restricting a perfectly legitimate game style because you do not like it..bla bla bla..some tears

You join a game known for ganking since it's birth, then do nothing but complain about it.

Nope, your "ganking is bad, gankers need to be punished" line definitely count as tears, and you're full of complaints about how gankers shouldn't be allowed to dock because you don't like it.

Oh my bad. I thought not being able to dock was a restriction.

So your restriction to a game style, fixes what exactly?

Except your fix is not logical. Concord is not a policing agency with any direct authority over the Empires of EvE, so your suggestion that the mega-corporations of those Empires should care about what Concord says makes zero sense.
