I would argue that a 25m hardcap would actually be a problem. I would foresee that ignorant haulers would believe that after 25 minutes have passed they should be free from all harm. The majority of cases would end in the deletion of their freighters after some void delivery, and they’ll get upset that the 25 minute timer didn’t save them.

Is that so?
Maybe you arent so pro after all then.
If you dont like the 25min hardcap, send mail to Miniluv, as its what they suggested.

I’m allowed to have my own opinion. I don’t think sending any mails is neccessary.

There’s a way simpler solution - make cargo-scanning turn someone suspect in high-sec. You can log-off safely if you’re not being target locked, and they won’t gank if they haven’t cargo scanned - too much ISK risk. They could target lock and not c-scan but then you’d know they’re taking an ISK risk if you hard-log.
Cargo scanning is not the issue.
Perma-bumping is.
We have to go deeper to find out what causes perma bumping.
What causes perma bumping? The refusal to pay the ransom. Pay your ransoms haulers. Its for your own good.

Oh dude - the bump is a set-up to a gank to delay you. The cost of a gank is based on the freighter value, if they don’t know what the kill is worth, then they won’t gank. The bump becomes redundant at that point and you could probably risk hard-log out.
It doesnt matter what causes it.
All that matters is it happens, and putting a cap on it.
Cargo-Scan is easy for CCP to do - the only reason not to do it is because ganking might well be an ISK sink that is keeping the economy in check. A bumping fix represents more difficult coding.
Cargo scanning is not an issue.
Perma-bumping, is.
You just don’t get it brother.

Its you that doesnt get it.
CCP was already exploring changes to bump mechanics before they had to lay-off the team.
The issue is perma-bumping.
Miniluv agreed to a 25min hardcap,
Have you not considered what the Bumper’s Union thinks? Miniluv isn’t the only group around that has an opinion on game balance.

Yeah - WTH does Miniluv have to do with CCPs dev team - MiniLuv is Goon oui non?
Lol these replies.
Babis and their first trolls…
Miniluv is Goons yes
The doc was written by one guy @Salvos_Rhoska
Not the entirety of Miniluv, nor the entirety of bumpers.
Bumping is a non-issue.
Your ignorance is tho.
E: Inb4 copypasta
Bumping isn’t an issue for me - CODE failed(s) on my freighters. I don’t care.

To be fair to CODE - some of those Jita JF kills are impressive.
If you cant get your gank fleet onto a bumped target in 25mins, well, you must be bad at ganking.

Years worth of experience and nerfs to your playstyle will do that 
(I particularly love that Marshall kill)
