Since CCP is nerfing PVP in High Sec, if you truly cared about newbies, you’d advocate for more ways for them to get blown up in High Sec in constructive social situations. Advocating for removal of ganking is removing the last remaining form of PvP loss available to newbies, and thus denying them this key moment entirely. Which makes it harder to retain newbies. CCP’s words, not mine. Your position of “get rid of ganking” is anti-newbie-retaining.
