25 mins is plenty.

HTFU and deal with it.

If you cant land a gank fleet on a target in 25mins, you failed.

What about the process of putting a freighter into the queue? For instance say there are 4 freighters being bumped. One gets ganked. Due to the nature of criminal timers, it would take an hour for all four to eventually be ganked. If the bumper can keep a freighter bumped for an hour while he waits for timers to refresh, should he not be rewarded for his skill?

But criminal timers only allow gankers to gank every 15 minutes. If a group can bump more than 3 targets at a time, should they not be able to gank them all?

Criminal timer is not changed by a 25min hardcap on bumping.

Criminial timer remains 15mins, with all that entails, as before.

Bumping is not a criminal act, thus unrelated to criminal timer.

They can and will be able to, as now, provided they sustain the 15min criminal timer.  
No change is proposed to criminal timer.

It takes a theoretical 30 minutes to kill 3 ships

Add the time for a formup, a time to warp around if needed, etc.

You forget a lot of factors as usual 😂

Anywho

No change is required as only a very small group of people are affected by any form of bumping 🙂

If there are only a small group affected by it, that means a change can be made without widespread impact.

25mins is reasonable, supported and referenced by experts as a hard-cap.

TLDR: If you cant get your fleet together and land on the target in that time, and/or place a point to suspend it, too bad, too sad.

Why should CCP cater to the weak?  
Why should they spend valuable dev time on a non-issue?

If you cant land on a target during 25mins of bumping, its you that is weak, disorganized and inefficient.

Nor will repeatedly denying the truth.

25mins is enough, as supported/suggested by the Miniluv report.

If you cant handle that, well, you must be bad.
