Flame away but i hope the normal eve players will agree with me on this, CCP needs to fix this ganking trend or the game is going down the pan.
I am sorry, but it was these 'normal EVE players' in question which killed you.
If you do not like this, then you may not be playing the right game.
And contrary to what you seem to think, the majority of EVE players are in the range of 25-30 years old and have successful careers and a family. Whereas its the kiddies who have had everything handed to them living in moms basement who cry the most when someone bloodies their nose.
p.s. The VERY FIRST tip in the player guide is this: "Don't play the game in AFK mode. This game is not designed with this kind of playing style in mind and you should NEVER consider your ship and character safe while being away from your computer."
Suicide ganking is nothing new to the game, it has been around since the game started and will always be around. If you have to be away from the computer dock or log out.

The sad part about this whole escapade is that you really can go afk in an inty. Just double click in a random direction and hit the mwd then go about your business. 
Shush you, we are busy browbeating the whiners in this thread.

...The "mature, successful career" people are in 0.0 alliances or mining all day in my experience.

Suicide ganking is not limited to AFK targets. Get a clue.
Well... On the first point, I guess our experiences differ eh? Maybe my experiences are an aberration... Maybe I am the aberration? Who knows...
Second point, the majority of people who lose ships to a suicide gank are indeed AFK, or are letting their ship fly on autopilot while not paying attention at any rate. Yes there are a few situations where people get suicided while not AFK, but I never said 'all suicide ganks happen to AFK people', did I?
