in my recent Gate campping experiments i have noticed that the increassed ranges of sentrys Dont serve n00bs/haulers
N00bs and haulers are only kind of ships that are Still easy to drop from 150km
on the contruary - tire 3 and 2 cruisers are fairly safe (it takes luck to get em down) and its useles even to atak BS's
so here ya go - n00bs and haulers are still at disatvantage    
ha ha haa suck it up CCP -------------------------------------------

Quote: I disagree. I don't think it was stupid at all. If you look at things realistically, the only way you are going to be able to make that range is in a BS. If you are in a BS, and able to make that range, you have been training your skills for a while, and have the right modules to do it.
I would guesstimate that this change probably knocked 90%+ of pirates ot of the gate ganking business unless they use suicide tactics.
These changes were needed to help solve a griefing problem. They have helped it tremendously. If anything the range needs to be further increased. The reason I say this, is the recent posts seem to bear out that pirates are now hunting miners in the belts...as intended. This tactic seems to have worked in other words.
It also introduces a higher degree of risk to the pirates doing the gate camping since you can warp to an object more than 150km away. So there you sit, at 166KM, waiting for a hauler. In pops someone geared for normal PvP, warps to you, and destroys you. I would say most people aren't going to want to do that, but I would doubt that you can have a real PvP set up when you have to have so many boosting modules to make your range. You should be an easy target for pirate hunters.
yor point of wiev whuld be valid - but u Cleary dotn know all fackts 
first of all "can warp to an object more than 150km away" ne ne - u cant  and the old - warp to 60KM trik dont work in this case - i used to kill gatecamppers in Molden heath region by warpping to gate to 60 - but now when u sit 150km - u are Compleetly safe  
and this one "only way you are going to be able to make that range is in a BS" - well, Post yulai accident gate campping were done in BS's also - 150km or 60 km dont matter - u still use BS as fiaring platform and cruisers to support 
and this one "you have been training your skills for a while, and have the right modules to do it. " - sensor linkking skill takes electroniks lvl 3 and sensor linkking skill lvl1 + BB and some cap relays so u can go AFK while boosting BS range it dont take that insane skills - it takes now more personell to pull it out 
and this one to "I would guesstimate that this change probably knocked 90%+ of pirates ot of the gate ganking business unless they use suicide tactics." - well - now all cearbear community feel itself safe in 0.4 - 0.1. i see enormus amunts of friggys passing trough thees areas now - also fair amaunt of indys and the regular amaunt of other stuff - the point is, they arent safe in there, and when i kill em - u cant imagine the moan and whine i get - 0.4 - 0.0 arent supose to be safe 
and that one "These changes were needed to help solve a griefing problem. They have helped it tremendously" - look in the eyes of all ppls i killed yestuday and tell this to them   
grrrr "If anything the range needs to be further increased" - why dont u bring concord to 0.4 - 0.1 - because that increas will not stop me from campping - insted of 2 BB's it will take 4 BB's and scorppion but i will still do it 
"You should be an easy target for pirate hunters" - lad, u seem forgot one thing, Im Captain Siddy - Savvy?  -------------------------------------------

it was a stupid change, and everyone with some brain knew it.
still there are a lot of ppl around defending it...
The change was anything but stupid. It's sad to see you haven't grown some brains. The change may not have stopped every single form of abuse as far as gate camping is concerned, but it drastically reduced the amount of griefers. The only bad thing you guys can name is something that could have been achieved just as easily even without the change.
Fact of the matter is, rules gotten tighter and grievers will have a harder time doing the whole lame gate camping thing. Of course there will be some exceptions in a game this dynamic, but every step in the right direction is another good point for the game.
Now, before you go on with the sig bashing, might actually want to think things through and provide arguments. Unless you want a repeat of our last "conversation".
pfft
my point is - the people that thees Cheanges ment to protekt - are still suffering - actualy they suffer even more now
were is the point of that? 
obviesly Gate gun range increases dont work
How a baut a Shield bubble tha makes everyone inside it safe from gatecamppers from 150km and only way to kill in it is to suicide ur ship
i bet u carebears whuld like that - dont u  -------------------------------------------
