Quite frankly, i could care less if some "roleplaying" gank squad tried to attack me. Even though my character is gallente, i dont roleplay in game (i prefer to do stuff with my corp) and i try to avoid pvp (although the People's Front of Mim is ****ing me off with constant cargo scans). However things like this are annoying to me from a friendly player standpoint (Ive given out quite a lot of money to new and beginning players in the help channel, and when i have money i try to help them as well as by helping them by answering questions. In my opinion, the best thing ive ever had happen in the game was when a Dev thanked me for helping. And Im DAMN proud of that.). Luminaire is a SAFE system. Yulai is a SAFE system. I dont see an option to declare war on factions. You should NOT be able to travel in a pod from station to station with a negative sec rating. Ganking of one race is not called roleplaying, its called ETHNIC GENOCIDE. Taking advantage of the kestral (with its cheap cost, excellent weapons payload, and extreme damage potential) vs PVP n00bs (indy pilots in 1.0 space are not supposed to get blown up by gankers in kestrals who are out for a power rush in an attempt to shaft the system) and taking advantage of the game system itself (see m0o for excellent example of things like this) is often what makes the game distasteful for others. Quite frankly i have absolutely NO PROBLEM WHATSOEVER as long as u do this in .4 and less space where it belongs. There are PLENTY of gallente areas that are well travelled, you are just being lazy about this to the point that you are just out to gank stuff. In fact I challenged you to come and try and stop me from going through Luminaire, and i didnt see a single one of you rise to the occasion (so much for warring on all Gallente). As long as you are in 1.0 you guys are nothing but griefers and in my mind exploiters that are taking away from the play experience of others. When you look at it from the standpoint that we cant initiate offensive action first (instead we have to wait for the first missile to hit us before we can fire back) we are faced with an exploitation of the games mechanics to the deteriment of other players. You are exploiting the CONCORD/sentry system by using them to prevent US from attacking your ships, while you are free to take the first action always. Until u take this type of actions where they belong (.4 and down) or CCP enables us to ATTACK ANY PERSON WITH A NEGATIVE SECURITY STATUS IN EMPIRE SPACE WITHOUT CONSEQUENCES, this type of action is an exploit in my mind, and im sure in the minds of others. All you are a person who is exploiting the game mechanics to bring harm to others playing the game. Until you prove that you can do what you are supposed to do (i.e in .4 and down) you will be an exploiter to me (and im sure to CCP as well).
