> [@Ax\_l\_Thorne](#): > > but not actually preventing ganking. Of course we did , I know it’s an on going joke about ag failing and sometimes we did but we could stop a 50+ gank fleet with 8 man ag fleet that hit the same freighter 3 times then us once , or stop a fleet of 10 Talos for the loss of one frig and one pilot on grid, so yes we could stop ganker , could you. It was actually good fighting some of the most skillful gank fleets around , we indeed failed a lot but stopping these guys made new and inexperienced gankers a doddle as some ganker FC while out training new guys will tell you. Good times indeed . ---

> [@Vuhdo\_Rin](#): > > if this is your game, to sit there and wait if gankers going to kill someone … I mean they do it for the content. It’s fun to them and that’s it. I can’t see any other reason to do it as it’s not profitable or actually achieving anything. But content is content and to each their own. Similar thing can be said about gankers. “to sit there and wait for someone with cargo to come by” Not much point in trying to shame, make fun of someone’s content. In contrast people mine full time. They look at a rock and are having fun. I’m sure even antiganking is much more fun than that. ---

Gankers often crap on AG and vice versa, but I don’t really see that big of a difference other than gankers actually get loot and can play for profit. Although I usually don’t. I enjoy killing things to kill them and if I’m up or neutral that’s a bonus. A lot of people in this world get their pickles hard by just “messing with someone” and that can be a big motivator. And if you’re motivated you’re usually having fun ---

> [@Vuhdo\_Rin](#): > > but let me ask you a question → can you tell me where gankers hurt your feelings ? … xD To tell you the truth we never sat around for hours on end like gate campers or larger fleets in null , we had good intel and if gankers became active we would assemble, or go out hunting roving gank fleets in planned fleets . One roving fleet came across 3 tornadoes all flashy red and tethered , guy obviously getting ready for a gate gank. We had good DPS so we bumped one of tether , to our suprise we hit the anchoring ship, and the other neatly followed the first ship, we killed them one at a time . It turns out he was afk and turned supper salty on his return. As for your last question, they never did , it’s not a game style I like so I wanted to see if there was a way to fight what they do , without any real game mechanics available to us. I never was a miner or hauler so never came across them that way. I wanted both ganking and anti-ganking to be play styles supported by a workable war Dec system . ---

> [@Githany\_Red](#): > > without any real game mechanics available to us no game mechanics for antiganking ? oO wtf … and you want that i believe you ? you can still say what you want 🙂 whiteknighs are just former victims and now they want revenge and even if the revenge is to safe other lazy and stupid ppl not to die. i dont care about it … if you or anybody want to do it then go ahead and do your best … but dont try to change my mind for this canse because nobody wants it if they wouldnt be cowards to find real ppl to shoot or to salty to look for other content and btw … yes ganking is boring aswell but it need more skill then antiganking and they doing profit so … ---

> [@Ikaru\_Caderu](#): > > can’t see any other reason to do it as it’s not profitable or actually achieving anything. You would be surprised at the isk and ships we have been given over our time hunting ganker , remember many of there targets are very rich haulers. I was given 1 billion for a 15 min freighter save . Guy was loaded and was pleased someone helped him . It probably helped that people started to recognise our group and me but we never wanted for ships and isk Still, just re subbed and going to try some new stuff this time but it was fun. ---

> [@Ikaru\_Caderu](#): > > People like to say that ganking isn’t fair Everything is totally fair in a world in which you can _choose_ ( the operative word ) what role to play. Nobody joins Eve and gets immediately told ’ right…all you can ever do from now on is mine’. People **choose** to be miners. As such, they choose to be prey. If they don’t want to be prey, the game gives them fully the option to be something else. Simple ! Eve is fundamentally all about the consequences of your choices. ---
