Within High Security space the most active conflict is rabble from the fringe of society pulling what is essentially a infinite money glitch against those still putting in the hard work of moving stuff from A to B on a regular basis.
Silence is implicit acceptance and does nobody any good.
Was it lawless at the time?
That is objectively wrong, as many PvP engagements are about playing an objective, not holding grid. Destroying a structure or POS. Destroying an iHub. Busting through an eviction. And so on.
Also, glad to see you back. Would you like to address any of my critiques or let them continue to stand on their own merit?
There is, it’s the profit of your hauling run. If there is no profit attached, you should seriously reconsider your business decisions and ask yourself why you should risk a 5B ship+cargo for no gain.
How long does concord wait while all this is going on?
…of whom I am one. Ganking is also a hobby.
I did not advocate silence, Eloken. I posited that I did not understand anger as a response to immutable change.
Of course, it is a perfectly acceptable initial response to something we dislike, but it serves us poorly in the face of immutable circumstance, where it might properly be seen - by emotionally mature persons - to be an exercise in futility (a waste of time).
If you are going to question what I’ve written, do be careful, Eloken. I am known to bring Neutron Blasters primed with Void S to every encounter - written or otherwise.
I feel like you might be dumbfounded to learn how many of those are the same people.
“not losing money” is not “profit”. Learn the difference.
Yes. 100% this.
Let someone else spring the obvious trap.
You didn’t just ‘not lose money’, you increased the value of the goods by moving them to a more useful location and thus made profit. Thats the base every transport business is founded on, ask a trucker what he is paid for.
No you did not.
If there was no ganker, you would do it the same so the interaction does not increase the gain.
Also the fact that you make money doing the activity has no relation to the fact that the ganker have a much lower ante than the freighter, related to their potential gain and his.
If there was no ganker, your competitors would get their goods to market unhindered.
This effects your profit.
Hate to burst your bubble, but the world does not revolve around you.
It does not.
It does.
The prices on the market, on the other hand, does not revolve around the activity of gankers.
You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make it drink.
Trying to explain the basics to you is like trying to get blood out of a stone.
Actually it does.
Your claims are only the basics of stupidity.
They are plain nonsensical ones.
The offers on the market are not the slightest impacted by gankers activity.
Well it looks like you have mastered
So we reached that point where you can’t even pretend to discuss and go back to personal attacks.
Color me surprised, you’ve been doing that for years on the forum to harass any opposing opinion.
No I didn’t, those were your words
I have a fan
Yes it did. It was the reason to haul it at all. That value doesn’t need to be ISK alone, it can also be ‘efficiency value’ aka selling faster, supplying a production facility, a ‘convenience value’ aka moving stuff to a location you have easier access to it or even an ‘emotional value’ aka you simply like the stuff to be at B instead of A.
No matter what, you got value out of that trip, else you hadn’t made it. If someone just wants to fly a freighter to fly a freighter he can easily avoid all systems where gankers are active. I can recommend places where no freighter has been ganked in years.
