My conscience is always clear . I can’t see how you think of me as the sheriff of Nottingham type but them he had his supporters.

All criminals will be judged , just like last night when we helped purge a border system of fraternity.

( Note I said helped we did a small part)

I just want to ask again.

A lot of these miners are AFK.

Why do you care about their spaceship, more than they do? You should get out there and start mining yourself, or learn to PvP - stop protecting weaklings, and holding yourself back for people who don’t appreciate you or care about the game.

You know I’m right.

We are at one point all weaklings but many can become so much more , not all, your right some don’t care some don’t like the game , some are just not cut out for PvP but luckily our game caters for them and these we protect.

Many just need showing the way , take the other night a band of these pilots that you relish the thought of killing , boarded their ship’s. Small frigates set-up for one job ,pilots with little skills in the art of warfare , this one night we became a band of brothers and sisters flying to the aid of someone in need. Someone most of us didn’t even know.

We dived head long into a massed fleet of cruises and battlecruisers setting off our Ew bombs time and time again one after the other .

Other groups did their part ,whether they got paid or volunteered and the result, well your friends from null who you often gank with lost this day .

Is what we do still so wrong to you.

Uhh… C&P kinda just _is_ “similar topics”.

Two topics, in fact. The same two. Over, and over, and over again. For over a decade.

“Ganking good!”  
and  
“Ganking Bad!”  
(Usually written by the ganking good people trying to stir some drama.)

I wouldn’t say that’s anyone doing a “good job”.

And the same old trolls trying to derail stuf  
and in its simplest form what else can it but the righteous and the deprived in there eternal battle , of course it will look the same to an outside of these events who comments with little knowledge or research.

And where you get ganking good and ganking bad from , some pipe dream I’m sure . I find good and bad such silly terms don’t you think.

But surely, Githany, you see where that poster is coming from?

I’ve been watching closely the 2 threads in which miners/industrialists try to figure out what is happening/will happen to their gameplay when the impending changes go live.

Both threads mention ganking. Common, but erroneous myths are presented by the posters and, far from trolling, I (or someone else) must step in to correct the poster.

Thing is, almost any thread in GD concerning Highsec is likely to end up being a wordy brawl between opposing factions of the ganking debate. Can you deny it?

Yes, there are trolls; of course there are. I ignore them (when I’m not completely take in by their spiel…).

Yes, ‘good’ and ‘bad’ are typical descriptions of anything, given out by people unable or unwilling to deal with nuance; in adult fashion, that is. They are everywhere; why not on these forums? The poster was, I feel, simply pointing it out to us.

So, let me be clear; in a roundabout way, I am agreeing with you!

Tho to be safe, I would say the pro ganking crowd has ultimately effectively won.

I’m not sure I’d say pointing out what’s obvious marks me as a troll.

“Troll” =/= “someone pointing out something I don’t like”.

And it’s _your_ forums. It’s _your_ game.  
I just think that there should be more to talk about than ganking. It makes the game seem boring.
