It seems you are a huge ganking advocate for high-sec, and you might be an experienced high-sec player who deals with new player problems daily. I don’t know.
Following the logic that ganking is the best for player retention, how about championing to CCP to add extra damage against new players for veterans and let Concord not show up while ganking new players?
That all MUST then skyrock the new player experience AND push retention numbers to the heavens. Let’s try that for 6 months with the option to do a 180 if the numbers are tanking.
