I don’t think they ever should have allowed multiboxing because it allows wealthy people to have an unfair advantage in the game…which is BS, IMO… There’s also way too much advantage given to gankers in the game which has directly impacted player retention… At the very least, we should be able to attack reds in high sec without them having Concord protection… It has really gone stupid in this regard… Then the hunters would become the hunted in high sec…and of course they can’t let that happen and upset the gankers… Bottom line…Eve has lost half their players over the past five years mostly because they refuse to address the lopsided game mechanics in favor of ganking at the expense of player retention… Pearl Abyss only has dollar signs in their eyes with their only intent being to drain this game for every penny they can squeeze out of it… That’s why they massively encroached upon the skin sales and they intent to monetize the ships as well… Crying shame… Wish they would sell the game to someone who is not going to steal it away from the players out of pure greed… ---

> [@Shaigh](#): > > There’s also way too much advantage given to gankers in the game which has directly impacted player retention… Okay… just get into a corp and designate one person to sit in a Logistic Cruiser. they don’t cost that much. Have that person join the mining expedition so he can be ready to target any mining barge that gets targeted by a squad of gankers. If that person has the skills and the fit, he or she can make it impossible to destroy a barge before Concord arrives. Even if it doesn’t work, you’ll at least be able to say that you tried! That ship is fast on its feet. If the gankers target you, just move. Cats are not that fast. At least try.

> [@Glenduil](#): > > I mean… Not all of you like that part. There have been cries to “Nerf Concord” as often as there have been cries to “nerf ganking”. 🙂 First of all. That is Anti-Gankers propaganda. They cry to make ganking easier on alts to make us look bad. They do it because they know it won’t work. We, gankers, HTFU after every nerf and come stronger than ever. That is a fact. Second, it is not that I like it. Nobody likes their gameplay to be nerfed. I just agree that most of those nerfs over time were logical. If not ingame wise then monetary (alpha ganking). We are a few and have no representive in CMS, so unlike antiganking crowd we can’t change the game to our liking. So we have to accept it and find a new strategies. ---

Anyone can attack my -10 sec status gankers at any time without CONCORD intervention, and yet they don’t. Why is that? Multiboxing (which isn’t the topic under discussion) doesn’t just favour gankers. Take a look at any system with ice belts for proof of that. Please provide evidence to back up your statements that gankers negatively impact player retention, and that ‘EVE lost half their players over five years’ because of ganking. Otherwise, it’s just empty blather. ---

CCP’s own study confirmed that new players who were ganked within the first 15 days were more likely to continue playing than those who hadn’t lost a ship. Less than 1% of people who cancelled their subscription said it was due to ship loss or griefing.
