No, I don’t, you say new player but your discussion is not new player.
It’s also ■■■■■■■■, but that is beside the point 
And how else do you propose to evaluate the safety of highsec given the fact that “safe” can only be defined relative to other things? What objective rate of loss, independent of any references to anything else in EVE, is considered “safe” and what justification do you have for that standard?
Some gankers are sociopaths.
Some Renly Rohans commit indecent acts upon sheep.

When are you are going to get over whatever it is you can’t get over and stop taking raging at everything I say and dragging other threads around all day?
Perhaps you should look in the mirror given how many times you whine about how persecuted you are when I address 100% on-topic responses to you. Sounds like you’re the one who can’t get over your little vendetta. Or is it simply envy?
No. Sociopaths don’t gravitate toward carebear roles. Mixing an insigificant minority with a separate signifcant population would be either stupid or purposely misleading.
I love this part the best.
So when someone gets jumped in an alley (closest thing I can think to your mining issue) how do you think that 911 call worked out?
If anything Concord’s response time is WAY faster than any officer in real life.

Do you have any concrete evidence for the claim that sociopaths make up a significant portion of gankers, and an insignificant minority of carebears?
Why are you dragging “safe” into this now?
The term is “high security”. And we have plenty of high security places in the real world for comparison. Eve high security space simply isn’t even close to meeting the standards. It is therefore misleading.
You did it! 
If my posts sound angry to you I assure you that your own brain added something between what your eyes saw and mental cognition.
Why does it need to be “concrete”? Do you believe that most psychology is “concrete”?
Of course they do. Being able to slaughter helpless NPCs is appealing to sociopaths, just like some Renly Rohans are attracted to sheep.
(But not all of them, I wouldn’t want to generalize.)
Because that’s how “security” is defined, FFS.
And we have plenty of high security places in the real world for comparison
Oh really? What places do we have in the real world with privately owned warships owned by immortal demigods who can treat any “death” as merely a financial inconvenience?
You trollin’ bro?
We had our biggest exodus of players between 2013 and 2016. Player number plummeted basically the entire time.
PvP changed tremendously. Salvaging and stealing mission loot was a HUGEEEEEEE community back then. Suddenly Ninjas was the group I was in and we were recruiting like CRAZY up until these changes. It was seriously the best time in Eve. New bros could jump right in a heron and start stealing mission loot. We would kill a mission runner every now and then but we made so much off of loot and salvage we really didn’t need to care too much either way. Ninja Salvaging was a MASSIVE part of PvP player retention.
THEN, CCP destroyed the game.
Between 2013 and 2016 (by which point our playerbase had dropped to half) we got:
Crime Watch: Which was basically a big excuse to nerf orca ship swapping and give Whale mission runners a safety button. Added no content. Removed swaths of it. Furthermore it made suspects shootable by EVERYONE instead of just the corporation we stole from. This didn’t really matter to those of us who were established but there were NOTICABLY fewer new PvPers sticking with the game after this change.
NPC Bounty Buffs coupled with Tractor Units, Noctis, and Salvage Nerfs: This might not SEEM like a PvP nerf but it was DIRECTLY targeting the ninja salvaging community. It wasn’t even that these additions made it any harder for us to steal salvage, the problem was that they devalued salvage to the point that it was no longer worth the time for us OR the mission runner. Now the mission runner has nothing to defend, can play basically AFK, ANDDD FAR more of their income is direct inflationatory isk deposits. Couple this with inflationatory Incurions added a year earlier and you see why plex prices more than doubled over this period. This is also why CCP is having to rebalance minerals now. People got too rich, but instead of nerfing bounties (which is what they SHOULD do) they nerf industry cause there are way more Whales in ratting and missioning than there are in industry.
And these were just the nerfs to the Salvaging community. The few Ninja Salvagers of old who actually stuck with the game switched to suicide ganking or War Deccing because of these heavy handed nerfs (mUcH bEtTeR cOnTeNt AmIrItE?) and CCP proceeded to nerf those professions into the ground as well.
It was a clear change of business model by CCP. They wanted the game to be easier to moderate and what they REALLY wanted was a NEW game (dust or some other pleb magnet) that was MUCH easier to moderate. Needless to say they failed on all fronts.

I’ve got evidence you’re one of the most prolific high-sec gankers and scammers, and may in fact be a blood relative of James 315. It’s not concrete evidence, but that’s hardly important.
Alleys are not high security areas.
Alleys are not comparble to expressway toll booths or the outsides of major shopping centers or official buildings either. Plus, such places even being labeled “high security” is rare, because actually achieving high security in such areas is difficult.
In high security areas there is rarely anything to react to. You are generally disarmed at the entry.
You are confused between general claims and specific individual accusation. The two are wildly different.
Plus you are simply lying.
You cannot answer the question?
Look, DSM changes over time. Not much is concrete. You are asking for such a ridiculously high standard of evidence I think its you that’s trolling.
You’ve refused to answer pretty much every question that was asked and now you’re flipping it on me?
This is getting too weird even by my standards. Is all of this going on some “greatest internet moments” thread on Reddit or (shudders) 4chan? Am I going to become famous?
Look, if we did they would not be labeled “high security”.
Yes. But not nearly as appealing as slaughtering helpless PCs who then offer salt.
Look, the only reason I can imagine why you keep denying the obvious is that you are damned lonely. Please find a friend or adopt a cat or something will ya? I am going to bed.
One might wonder why he stopped posting under Ridley Rohan and swapped to an alt on March 5th, but then one might check zkill and stop wondering.

Ridley got shadow banned. IDK why.
Appeal to the moderators to unban him and watch me post under that name again.
No need for tinfoil hats okay?
I been up front with this from the start.
Man you guys need a hobby.
Might have had something to do with the never-ending bait?
You’re going to need another character now anyway. Over the past couple dozen posts you’ve done such a good job of discrediting yourself that no one really needs to reply to you - they can just link to this thread.
Ok, So pick any other place. My brother in law once got mugged at his apartment door.
People get attacked and beat up, or even killed in all kinds of places
The whole point of laughing at the reference to “real life” is that 911 will never save you when you are actively being attacked.
If you are trying to equate the definition of High Security IRL and in EVE, just don’t. They clearly don’t and have never held the same definition.
