Ganking has gone too far

Look, one red apple in a pile of rotten vegetables doesn’t salvage the situation. We have to judge ag at large and they fail really really hard right now.

I mean look at your spiritual leaders. Dryson completely lost it, ran away to nullsec again and is now crying about PL in his unique ways. And Drac ran away to nullsec as well because he is “bored” but still cries about bumping on a daily basis.

Every time I take a glimps at the channel there is some whining about game mechanics and people reporting the same gankers in the ever same pipe every 5min an getting angry because no one is doing something. It is a serious trainwreck.

The only question is when will you be fed up with it enough to join the dark side (a.k.a. the land of fun and wealth)? :grinning:

I guess ganking would go too far, if CODE managed to gank an AT flagship just before a match? Tha would be something to see right?

Because you cannot do that I guess Ganking has been nerfed?

We have seen that - CODE. ganking not just a flagship, but a whole AT fleet:

But the Alliance Tournament is really a corrupt abomination, not representive of what goes on this game. Don’t get me wrong, it can still be a bit of a lark, but given how much collusion and match-throwing there is to ensure the connected people get their valuable AT ships, or back in the day win a bet they made against themselves, you probably should treat it more as a series of WWE wrestling matches than a real esport or competitive tournament.

Further, it takes place in a safe space separate from New Eden between balanced fleets - in other words it is everything Eve is not. Even if the AT was somehow cleaned up and made into a fair tournament, success there has very little connection to what wins the tourney and what makes a group successful at Eve - unless you count the back room skullduggery and side deals that decides much of the event.

So enjoy the AT as the spectacle it is, but don’t spend too much time analyzing it or trying to emulate/apply what you see in the rest of New Eden.

That is incredibly funny.

I even stage from w-space, feel free to drop by and camp the station undock some time.

So you have moved on from calling me a leader to calling me a spiritual leader, I guess that is an improvement of sorts, but still totally wrong.

I have never been a leader in AG, and in any case AG is a chat channel, if you want leaders look at the HSM and I was never in the HSM.

My reasons to go to nullsec was because hisec is so boring and stale, in nullsec I have had some really good fun fights, including being in on a massacre of a PL cap fleet. I previously left nullsec because of the stagnant nature of the game in nullsec with the Dominion sov system, and as soon as I was sure that Fozzie sov was working I joined an alliance that suited my TZ and went for it.

So continue to whine about me leaving hisec, it makes me chuckle a lot.

PS I have largely given up on these forums too, but someone mentioned your whine here and I could not help myself, finding it rather cute that you were missing me. You are just a little old sweetie.

Consequences, consequences, consequences… Every action, behavior or attitude must have appropriate consequence.
Like not being able to dock at all in high sec when go bellow -2 to -5 security status, depending on security status of the system, 0.5 to 1.0.
You get shot by police in a system for security status being bellow a threshold, then you also cannot dock in any structure in that system. Providing safe sanctuary for all outlaws in high sec stations is one of the most broken feature in eve, ever.

Oh dear, well it makes it too easy for them and impossible for most of their targets to counter apart from docking up and not going through the pipes. The gankers have proved by their ganking of JF’s that they don’t need ibumping to gank. I think the game play would be better and more engaging without it, because they would have to be set up to gank instead of pinging for a bumped freighter to kill with some poor sap sitting there perhaps for hours being bumped and the freighter pilot can add playing with the cloak timer to his arsenal of counters.

People who whine about people saying this is bad game play are the issue and don’t really get Eve imo.

Thank you for that, and sorry to ask you that when you had evidently given up on the forums.

As I could not give a flying ■■■■ about these rancid forums, go ■■■■ yourself you stupid arsed ■■■■.

And that was fun wasn’t it Sol !!!

PS You gave me the most amazing moment in Eve when you defined all carebears as Fascists which is as about as emo and whiney as anything I have ever seen. And your boasting about making an Atron warp away in Rens was hilarious, but not what you thought as funny, thanks for those moments, still makes me chuckle.

Oh, you misunderstood. You are just the perfect rolemodel of why ag is failing all day. Constant whining, no innovation, zero action.

As for the ‘leader’ thing. There are some ag who just stand out, like Dryson, you, JTClone Ares, Russel etc… It’s not leader in the sense of actual leadership, more like in a really comical sense. I think everyone with a sense of humor will immediately know what I mean if he reads your posts :rofl:

As I said to you before at a personal level I did not fail, you never got a single kill on any of my characters, not one loss to CODE. I was in on many saves, and had a 40% success rate on those I attended, with twin T2 logi. So that is failure is it. My killboard shows many CODE kills with meaningful DPS on them. before CONCORD whored on my kills.

So let me entertain myself with your comparisons.

I have no idea who JTClone Ares is or was so cannot comment on him.

Dyson and Russel both claimed to be leaders and tried to get people behind them by calling for that on the forums, I have never ever done that, not once. I made reasoned arguments about poor game mechanics and imbalances, not impassioned whines about ganking as a whole which the others did.

You have got kills on them and did numerous articles on them on your website. But no kills on me and no fun stuff about doing things to me on your sad website, because you can do jack against people who know what they are doing. AKA me.

My killboard has a high efficiency rating, I am in the top 10k by the way, but the others you have linked and tried to define me as don’t have anything like that. Their killboards are appalling and their own personal game play has been directly impacted by CODE’s actions against them. Me nope.

Of course you could define my decision to not use freighters as a personal victory against me, however that is really the piss poor mechanics defeating me, not you.

Being humorous is actually having a grain of truth in it, but if it is not even close then it makes you look idiotic, in other words it makes you look like a roaring twat.

PS AG succeeds every time you have to bring extra to gank something, every time you fail a gank and have to do it again, because AG is a resistance movement based around a chat channel, which you fail to understand and every time you misrepresent that you show yourself as petty minded and idiotic.

Is that the best you could do? When you use humour it has to be humorous, have a grain of truth in it, any comparison between those players and me is in your septic mind, and as I said you just come over as a roaring uniformed bitter twat.

So go on link kills on me then, link articles about me on your website then, nope, go find me calling for the end of ganking, nope,. You won’t find those at all on me. It is all in your mind Ima.
