@Chad_Frostpacker I donā€™t think gankers are supposed to be polite and as a matter of fact they may not know how to be polite. ---

Total baloney. As how come some gankers have pointed out after identified whenever a miner is not so polite with them? How can some ganker could even be extremely patient with such miner? They pick and choose their target the same way they decide which miner will receive a level of politeness and who doesnā€™t. ---

> [@Akolja-Oenris\_Frael](#): > > You know too much about ganking to be a simple ā€œminerā€. Some people regard the Frostpackers as a family. Or a troupe. There are certainly miners among them and none has - to my knowledge - become a ganker in the fullest sense of the word. There isā€¦ _history_ with these delightful folk. They entertain us daily, giving freely of their time and energy. On-topic, though, I always greeted gank targets politely. I usually received the potty-mouth in response and sometimes found it necessary to deal with the miner quite firmly. This was in recognition of the possibility that families and otherwise impressionable persons might have the Local Chat window open and be scandalised by such verbal violence and ordurous obscenity, all decked out in the garb of frat-house anatomical colloquialisation. ā€˜Calm down, Minerā€™ didnā€™t always cut itā€¦ There is no cause for the Ganker to be other than polite following a successful intervention. A ā€˜GFā€™ in Local - from both parties - should be the norm. As to Patience; no one who has not acquired this virtue will ever become a successful Ganker. Indeed, such a person may struggle with many of the various challenges posed by EVE Online (and Life). So, @Chad_Frostpacker, if it appears to you that Gankers are not being polite and/or patient in their dealings with the carebears, please remember that ganking can be a stressful and demanding activity. Show _them_ the Politeness and Patience you expect to receive and Iā€™m sure weā€™ll all be hunky-dory. Mmmk? Edit: Spelling ---

Makes me want to fold him backward in half even more now. ---
