Hmm I dont even know how to reply to that :/ I want to play then game. I really like all the aspecs to the game just not the part where I can be killed for no reason and be set back months of work... can you guys not understand that?? or are you too short sighted??
I have a family, work and kids I don't have them time that lots of you have.
First, I would like to state that your problem is not that the game is PvP. Honestly your problem is that your computer reset at the wrong time. Unless the game caused you to reboot, (which is quite likely, it happens to me occasionally), then that is the real problem, not someone locking you and destroying your ship.
I do not have a family, but I have a job that I work a rotating swing shift (5:45am-2pm & 11:30-8pm) with alternating Fridays, 2 Saturdays a month, in a band, dating, yard work, hanging out with friends, and the list goes on and on.
This game takes time, we are all part of one great big story. Two servers would destroy the authenticity that this game provides.
That being said, I know how you feel. I have been playing since September of 2007. Even to this day you will not see me flying a 40 million isk set up, outside of a mission space, by myself. You need to protect your assests as you would in real life.
Take this for what it is. Learn from it. Try not to make the same mistakes again.

P.S. I truely hope that you were not ratting in high sec in a 40 million isk set up, just not necessary!!! |

The more frequently you buy insurance the higher percentage you pay or lower percentage the payout becomes. I know from a few personal experience wrecks cause my insurance to go up.
I know it is a game and all, but in what world would insurance pay out money to someone who intentionally comitted an act that was illegal. I think that charges of insurance fraud would brought down upon said individual.
It is EVE it is a cold dark Universe where the perverted may prey upon the week.
Here is a RP option to maybe appease both sides. Make the insurance company have a fraud division that attempts to looks over all killmails. Make it so that all killmaills that involve CONCORD go through a raffel and certain individuals get flagged for fraud, get investigated, and have said determined amount of isk subtracted from their wallet. Also provide a way for the gankers to pay a certain amount of isk (payoff to Concord or Fraud Investigators) to ignore the incident.
Very rough concept and would need some major tweaking.
Role with it if you fell inclined.
