In response to the OP
OUTSTANDING post. One of the most well written posts I've read in the last 3 years.
I don't agree with you on everything. I still think the best and simplest thing would be to have zero insurance for any ship that dies while flagged by Concord (regardless of who gets final shot), but I dont mind if someone with less than 30mil cargo gets free ride.
But the insurance issue is minor point, and one I'm not really much worried about, even if I do have an opinion on it.
MUCH more important on this issue is a point you made that I 100% agree on: There should be some PRACTICAL (Stress the word "practical") way for bears to harrass suicide gankers and make life miserable for suicide gankers. (however, I can't think of anything to do this for your average bear, so I'd settle for no insurance....)

Eh, OP.. nice effort but the problem flew over your head.
The problem is not afk t1 haulers. It's heavily tanked mission runner battleships getting blown up. Frieghters with over a hundred thousand hp being blown up. Any mining ship above a cruiser getting blown up.
If someone uses a transport that only adds up to their loss, because gankers don't work solo. Transports are junk. 3 Brutixes ?  that's less then the cost of the empty transport if the cargo wasn't worth anything  .
Any t2 ship above frigates is basicly open to griefing in highsec because it's cost empty and unfitted is higher then the cost in ships it takes to suicide it.
You just do the math, your ship value, their ship+loot value, and you know you will win.
Thats one of the reasons I'd like to see zero insurance for any ship that dies while flagged by Concord.
Although I'd like to see a practical method of harrassing suicide gankers in 0.5+ even more. Make the issue into an actual two way hunting affair.

Excellent post.

If there was tons of people suiciding all the time, then it would be a problem and CCP would change some of the mechanics.

What server do you play on? It sure aint Tranquility.
