another nail in the coffin of PvP.....
/hands over hammer
Ganking, I mean PVP are still possible - some lamer tried to get me last night by camping by a station in a .3 in an alt; I was going to station to pick up an escrow item. Course as soon as I entered station the alt logged off and guess what guy with like a -8.8 suddenly pops up in local. I think should I just log off - IN station before I get flamed; I was going to anyway when I got back to my home base - or come out of station and take my chances?? Well I took the non care bear approach - I was armor tanked/sheild tanked and had 3 heavy missle bays active so I figured if he did web me or get a shot off at me I would take shots back and take my chances. I took the time to do a show info on him - after I left the station, set my destination, then hit my auto pilot...dude never even got a shot off at me. His response in local as soon as I warped? "I was ready to hit fire motha" exact words. My question is why didn't he? What took so long 
I'm not a PVP'er by nature but was willing to do so in this situation if provoked into it apparently this -8.8 guy must not be too quick.

He was bluffing you most likely trying to entice you to shoot. If he was outside a station, the sentries would destroy whoever opened fire first.
In a .3 it is my understanding that the sentries don't care unless you hit them/station and I've read before on the forums of people getting detroyed coming out of station in this fashion. If it's true that he couldn't then that makes more sense but I won't fire first but will hopefully fire last

nope they care alright and will attack the pilot who shoots first in anything but none empire 0.0 space.
Well then that expains it then...guess he was hoping I was a N00b...
One question on this then, how are Pirates getting people at .4 gates? i thought >=.5 Concord responds =>.4 no concord response?
