I have come to the conclusion the Devs that do play are gankers.
How many devs playing EvE?
How many non-devs playing EvE?
Percentage of devs playing EvE?
Devs ARE the gankers?
Fail

I say this because they effectively removed any "flight" options. When faced with an impending attack a persons options are 'fight' or 'flight'. Flight is not an option. I've read "CCP wants you to commit to the fight." HA! commit to the gank is more accurate.
Pilots avoid fights all the time, they "flight" all the time. Where have you been?

We had WCSs, they nerfed those crazy. So if we 'Adapt' and fit more stabs and deal with the 'borked ship' we end up with, they give us bubbles. Effectively making the WCS a useless mod.
Bubbles were introduced long before the WCS nerf, which was made for the reason that _combat_ ships were using them to gank and run instead of gank and fight.

So we 'adapt' again and think nano to escape bubbles. Nope, MWDs don't work in bubbles. Cloak? Nope, with the existance of insta lock ships/setups that's not a possibility. Think outside the box? I'm open for any suggestions that are not blob (lag-fest) dependant.
A Microwarpdrive can successfully be activated inside a bubble just as well and it can be used outside, it does not matter.

So I conclude that the Devs play this game and when someone(s) are escaping thier gangs, they themselves don't "think outside the box" they just nerf whatever means were/are used to escape them.
Where is the "balance"? Where is the "everything has a counter"? Here are suggestions for you all to flame on:
Fail

WCS: Remove the 1/2 targeting range penalty. "But everyone will fit a WCS!" you say? I say Bull-malarky. "EVERYONE" will not give up the slot when really, to be more effective you would have to give up two slots. You have 2-point scrams, yet no 2-point stabs. THAT is fair-enough.
No, it was like this before and was a big problem. It seems that you don't know much at all about EvE.

Bubbles: Make MWDs work in these please. Correct me if I am wrong, but I don't think they do. At least that is what all the corpies were telling me when mine didn't activate in a bubble. Again, it is only the CHANCE to escape I'm looking for.
They do work, but maybe you failed.

A CHANCE, a balance between fight or flight. A means to disengage if needed.
I have snuck around these forums to hear all the 'whines' from the ganker/griefers "WAAA CCP! That hauler/cruiser/whatever won't just sit there and let me/us explode them!" I believe the devs play as ganker/griefers and that gives them the most jollies and they want the victims to just sit there also, so they introduce infinite point scramming ships, bubbles and nerf whatever means others develop to escape.
If we get a reliable way to always escape combat after it started, then surely everyone will use it (especially the pvpers) and combat will become meaningless since we can just run anyways. Result? We will need larger gank to destroy the target before it can escape, making the gank factor much worse then it is now.
