Oh suck it up people.
You either know what you are doing (and will be fine), or you don't (and will give up because the classic empire suicide gank is "too hard" now).
It's amusing actually.
The whine is that EVE is becoming a pink fluffy place with no challenges for the player base.
The truth is that certain types of gameplay just got much more challenging to do successfully.
Anyone else see the irony?

Nop i canŠt can you elaborate?
Just for you? No, I'm afraid my time is more valuable than that. 
But you can ask most anyone in your alliance that posts intelligently, they would appear to understand the concept already.

Indeed but you have taken the time and effort to whine about whiners ,i mean if something is more hypocrite is that.
Stating that I find these threads amusing (and more than a little ironic) != whine.
Nice try though.
And have I suicide ganked before? Why yes, although it was for political purposes, not financial ones. Despite that fact it was rediculously easy each time (and very profitable as a side note).
Had it been a bit more challenging, it would have been more fun.

So I suppose each new player that joins Eve and elects to not become a pirate is an equal nerfing of piracy? I mean...it's more targets to go around, so less likelihood of any particular individual coming across a limited number of pirates...
New players != changes in game mechanics. Don't be obtuse.
Additionally, it has less to do with the number of pirates Vs. the number of targets and more to do with the number of pirates Vs. the amount of ground that can be covered. You could have made a stronger attempt if you had gone about increases in systems or gates. Still weak, just, y'know...not as.
You are reaching a bit now.
You know as well as I do that as long as it is still profitable to suicide gank, they will come. 
Stating that there won't be enough players willing to dabble in this (in my opinion perfectly acceptable) style of game play is more than a little ludicrous. So is arguing they "won't be able to cover enough ground"... what ground? Are we keeping boundaries and score now? Please.
Yes the number of occurances will likely go down. Hello, that is the reason for the adjustment to be made in the first place... that is the goal. But as long as it merely requires some thought, risk, and dedication to that type of play the main result we will see is more of a focus on very high value targets. I don't think there is anything wrong with that. And apparently neither does the majority of the EVE community, both PVP oriented and Carebear oriented alike.
