You keep saying this, but you have nothing upon which to base this. You tried with suicide ganking of freighters, but clearly you have failed in that. If there is no problem, then it stands to reason it is not broken. Just read the OP. There's no proof or anything that backs up what you are saying. Only to you don't like it. That's not a valid reason to change gameplay mechanics. It just means that you should change the way you play. In other words: HTFU

So now you are advocating for people who are mismanaging their risk? Do I read you correctly? You think it is wrong that when a player mismanages their risk it is bad for other players to take advantage of it?
So I take it you also do not like:
Scammers, Corp thieves, Log on traps, And killing people who blind jump their capitals to a cyno beacon.
Yes? After all all those things also entail people mismanaging their risk. We need to save people from themselves...since they are not capable of taking care of themselves, we'll do it for them. Yes?

Absolutely. I would argue that is part of being a prudent player. Be aware of these things. I am taking my JF NOWHERE near Jita this weekend. You guys would be on me like stink on **** (even though we were once blue...I'm not now so I'd be fair game...which I have no issue with).
Hell at past Burn events there'd be people along the routes saying "Turn back...they are killing all freighters" and the freighters would head right into the meat grinder, some even on autopilot.
Exactly. You can't fix stupid.
As far as for the OP I would invite you to try ganking yourself. Learn the mechanics and you will learn that not all is as you seem. There as alot more to just sit there and shoot and some pubbie at random. If you really feel that my end of things is as broken and lop sided as you depict, this experience will enlighten you to what it is like and that there is alot you have to deal with to be able to get that juicy kill. It will also enlighten you to the stupidity of people. Would you haul 7 billion in an anti tanked T1 hauler? Maybe not but people do it. And that is why they get themselves blown up. |

Fortunately you are not ISD, and you put your idea out there for others to comment on...which includes me.
Perhaps you should consider the following:
Editing your post with something like: Needs to go back on the drawing board.
Then ask ISD to close the thread and there...I can no longer comment. But since I'd like to see the game survive, I'll comment on ideas I think are both good and bad.

Stop saying sandbox. It is not a sandbox. It is a brand that gets very frequent updates and changes all the time based on the best interest of the game. There is a reason that gambling got wrecked, roraquals got redesigned, and everything else in this game gets changed. That is not a sandbox, that is a game like another out there in the world. Whenever the good-old-boys club uses the term sandbox, its nothing more than an attempt to discourage changes that they benefit from. |

A ganker can only make that much money from ganking because the victim provides that much loot. If freighters did not carry as much, or bothered to protect themselves, gankers would make much less isk.
Do you understand that? The gankers pay is ENTIRELY dependant on the greed and stupidity of their victims. And you are ommitting that gankers have to share payouts.
And AGAIN with the lies. Without any real effort? perhaps for individual gankers. But the collective effort required for ganking freighters is massive. The logistics, the fitting of ships, the scanning, the camping etc etc So much effort in fact that very few groups can pull it off and make good isk.

Well, since they are criminals, you could go and hunt them as the devs have made that possible? I mean, I am pretty sure that is the reason you can shoot criminals freely?

They are treated as criminals, just not as you'd like them to be treated. You can shoot them. The FacPo will chase them, and if they are not fast enough catch and kill them. IIRC gate guns won't defend them if you shoot them first in LS.
The issue is not that they are not treated as criminals, just that they are not treated like you'd like to see them treated.
Please tell us how treating them more harshly will help the game?

How are we not? Lets go to the OP's original statement surrounding the -10 Sec status. At that point ANY pilot may freely engage your ship/pod. In addition to that you are limited in what you are able to fly due to the faction police spawning and chasing you to kill your ship so therefore you have to fly small/fast ships and you also lose the ability to cloak. |

Barely even reading your posts anymore nightmare. Your posts are that baseless they don't deserve attention. You're going in circles and keep coming back to 'Only gankers don't like this idea. wah wah wah'. So i stop reading after a couple of lines.
Be less childish then maybe i'll address them.

If your security status falls low enough, you can be shot without you having any timers on. Hence I used the word "criminal" and not " a player with criminal timers"

Your reply in no way refutes anything that Daichi wrote. Kusion's profits are entirely dependent on how much loot is in the freighter. Who put that stuff in the freighter? Kusion? No. The freighter pilot did. You should be at least as upset with the freighter pilot as Kusion.
But you just can't seem to get this point.

It would balance out the gankers reward vs risk. It would push more people into nullsec since being a criminal pirate in lowsec would not allow you into highsec unless you repaired your security status, It would limit the number of highsec only gank contracts so that they dont overrun the contract system. |

There is a reason that gambling got wrecked, roraquals got redesigned, and everything else in this game gets changed. That is not a sandbox, that is a game like another out there in the world. Whenever the good-old-boys club uses the term sandbox, its nothing more than an attempt to discourage changes that they benefit from.
CCP themselves call it a sandbox.

Solo? With how many accounts? And how many ships?
Every ship had to be bought, hauled and fitted. And then every (or almost every target) has to be scouted. Its not like he was randomly ganking freighters with a single ship.
We're talking hours of work here.

Do you understand that? The gankers pay is ENTIRELY dependant on the greed and stupidity of their victims. And you are ommitting that gankers have to share payouts.
And AGAIN with the lies. Without any real effort? perhaps for individual gankers. But the collective effort required for ganking freighters is massive. The logistics, the fitting of ships, the scanning, the camping etc etc So much effort in fact that very few groups can pull it off and make good isk. No its not... Kusion ganked freighters effortlessly all day long as a solo pilot before I started making it not worth it for him. Your reply in no way refutes anything that Daichi wrote. Kusion's profits are entirely dependent on how much loot is in the freighter. Who put that stuff in the freighter? Kusion? No. The freighter pilot did. You should be at least as upset with the freighter pilot as Kusion. But you just can't seem to get this point.
We are talking about criminal status and highsec control in this thread and OP, not the targets... take that **** elsewhere. |

It would balance out the gankers reward vs risk. It would push more people into nullsec since being a criminal pirate in lowsec would not allow you into highsec unless you repaired your security status, It would limit the number of highsec only gank contracts so that they dont overrun the contract system.
That is not CCP's business. If I foolishly put 10 billion at risk...that is my problem, not CCP's problem. So you are just flat out wrong.
The ganker's reward is somebody else's risk. If you want to reduce the ganker's reward, reduce the other person's risk.
How about this: Nobody can undock with more than 1.2 billion ISK in cargo value. Put more than that in terms of cargo value into your hold and you simply cannot undock.

I mean, I am pretty sure that is the reason you can shoot criminals freely? How does that help to shoot the criminals when that already are to late as they in 99% of all cases have killed their target before i can do something about the criminal? This is why it should be harder for the actual criminals to continue doing it the more they do it as it's impossible to prevent a gank before it's to late for the target they are suiciding on anyways. If your security status falls low enough, you can be shot without you having any timers on. Hence I used the word "criminal" and not " a player with criminal timers" But how does removing a criminal for 15 minutes help in this case AT ALL when they are back doing the same thing over and over and over every 15 mins?
That debate can go either way, I could ask for a 5 minute timer while those who are on the wrong end of it are asking for an hour. Almost every single timer in the game is 15 minutes or less. The exception being the Jump Fatigue timer. |

You brought it up dude. Perhaps you shouldn't post that crap then.
