Each of us that hauls has a responsibility to look after our own safety and these situations really can be avoided. It's not up to CCP to protect us and in the end, if gankers use teams of characters to effect a gank (even a hyperdunk) then we should use teams of characters to shift the odds into our favour.
It really only needs 1 more character (webbing ship) and good information (kill boards, haulers channel, anti gankers channel, gank Intel channel, a detailed watchlist) and if you really want, a scout.
No need for anyone to give up hauling. We all just need to be responsible and apply some smarts.

I think I saw at least 3 killmails last week where a freighter got killed with blue webs on it.
Well, I always said that webbing never worked, because it never worked. Repping doesn't do much either, overkill with free ships counters that stupidly easy.
Biomassing alts and making throwaway accounts to avoid consequences of negative sec status was actually declared an exploit. Wonder if somebody ever got punished for it.
When the only thing that's preventing a gank is lazyness and stupidity of an average ganker, what do you expect? CCP, it's tweaking time. |

Yep, haulers and the solo players just need to learn that EvE was never intende for solo play.
Edit: On the other hand, outside of the planning or practicing strategies....ganking is really super easy. Did it a long time ago on different character. It got boring, really boring because once you know all the ins and outs...its just, well boring as much as mining is without considering the motivations behind it. |

Avoid it in the first place and there is nothing to worry about as a hauler.

As long as there is no ship which can't be freely ganked, this paragraph is utter bullcrap.

Uedama Niarja Madirmilire always have gankers, don't need intel for that, and they are unavoidable. So you have a scout in Uedama Niarja Madirmilire to see gankers there 23/7, I dunno if it turns you on, but it doesn't make ganking you any harder. Detailed watchlist? There are 400+ QQODE, thousands of gewnies, and god knows how many tardmites. And there is always someone in Uedama Niarja Madirmilire, so I don't see it as helpful.

Is there a reason the freighter couldn't slowboat the 15k back through the gate and warp out until another time?
Would the ganker just follow?
Sounds to me like logi is the way to go on this but again then it's just the attrition of boredom.

Yeah CCP, you hear? This guy had to face the fact that he sucks at EVE, so it's time to nerf the people who are actually playing the game correctly!

That's because you don't actually play EVE, like most carebears you just pretend to.
Before I joined CODE, I would run my freighter through Uedama and Niarja half a dozen times a week or so. She never got ganked, she never even got bumped.

All you idiots saying webbing doesnt work just dont know how to actually do the web trick lol.
Seriously google it you idiots.
Yiu need to web immediately as freighter uncloaks and clicks warp to the next gate.
Freaking test it going from station to station.
But that would be too much effort for you babies.
You just suck at this video game.
Web IMMEDIATELY.
Its too late if you start moving and get bumped.
Freaking teat it you from station to atation.
God you guys i hope you quit. Eve doesnt beed you. You are worthless to this video game.

It's just gonna be pushx losses and not mine for now, until the inevitable tweaking pass is done due to bleeding subscriptions on this issue. |

Yep, because gankers were as lazy and stupid as you are when you claim webbing works. Unfortunately, I can't count that **** won't hit their brains on my webbed freighter all the time. |

If you quit because you can't figure out how to neutral web your own freighter, pretty sure CCP will write you off as no big loss.
I know I sure will. Now, can I have your stuff?

You're right. I've never piloted a freighter. I haul my stuff in a Crane. Might have to make multiple trips but never been bumped or ganked. Maybe it's because they were too busy with the freighter loaded with billions of ISK worth of cargo. Maybe it's because you're an easier target than I am.
Moral of the story - don't be a target.
Added tip (because I love you) - don't be a victim.

If you could bring any scenario where webbing actually works in a game, we could have something to talk about. But you are just pressing to be called a blablatard, because that's all you can do.
I will say it once again, slowly, so even famous bonehead who stands out even among the QQODE with his blazing idiotism can understand: instantly. webbing. freighter. does. not. make. ganking. it. any. harder. https://zkillboard.com/kill/47757900/ - this is the proof.

Good riddance.
Now, since I actually can fly a freighter properly, which by the way the fact that a ganker can fly a freighter better than you is something you should be ashamed of, how about giving me your stuff? It's pretty much a fact that I'll put it to better use than you have.
Quote: If you could bring any scenario where webbing actually works in a game, we could have something to talk about.
Be me.
Be dual boxing a freighter and a Dramiel with double webs.
Use freighter's position on gate to forcemove Dramiel to within 6k of freighter, while freighter is still cloaked.
Click buttan to warp freighter to gate.
Frantically alt tab.
Dramiel locks up freighter in less than one second, with webs pre-activated to land upon lock completion.
Dramiel webs freighter into warp towards gate so fast it can't complete it's warp animation.

I won't say it slowly, even though I genuinely do deride your capability to read it.
The tactic is not broken just because you're too bad at the game to use it correctly.

No point being paranoid in a video game. Much better to have fun. I didn't give it up, I outsourced it. I would've done it myself if it were possible, but it isn't, due to ganking being free and cretin-proof easy. Well, gankers are harassers who just want to ruin the fun of it. That's why I had to move from hisec. I'm in null now, where they will never come out to play, because of how scared they are. |

Hey don't get pissed at me shitbag. I didn't gank your ****. Have no desire to gank your ****. And am just tired as **** of people bitching about crap. Find a way to make it work like everyone else who makes it work or **** off to another game.
You call gankers stupid and yet continue to sub to a game that you obviously have some serious anger issues about.

So.
I have to abuse some substance which will slow me down to your level.
I have to do some dramiel kung-fu instead of using a minmatar recon like someone with a single not ****-shot brain cell would do.
I have to be unable to put two windows side by side like someone... you know the rest.
I have to not know that basically anything locks up freighter in one tick. I also have to be ignorant pissbrain to not know you cannot lock things in less than one second.
I have to pretend https://zkillboard.com/kill/47757900/ this and all the other blue web killmails never happened.
Sorry, that is too much. You can't make it work, I afraid. |

I just read it the other way.
Never been a ganker by the way. I prefer other forms of play. I just don't have anything against them.
