Why are repeat gankers not labeled as terrorists and anyone given free reign to KOS? (or insert better mechanic) Or at least labeled as terrorists by the factions controlling the space in which they are doing the ganking. Surely concord or the factions would not let someone who commits terrorism again and again right after stepping into a new clone protections? Literal 0 sense. ---

If I was on the Dev Team I would probably adjust it to be more the ability of class of ship. for example: A freighter getting ganked: anything below a battle cruiser ganking there is a cap of number ships hitting target, ie say you have 20 catalyst only 15 are doing damage 5 are shooting blanks A iteron V getting ganked say you have 20 catalyst only 1 is hitting 19 shooting blanks on top of that not alpha can gank but they still can pvp, same as any new character under 10 million skill points can’t gank but still can pvp. ---

> [@Strider\_Alpha](#): > > anyone given free reign to KOS? (or insert better mechanic) Or at least labeled as terrorists by the factions controlling the space in which they are doing the ganking. You must be new to EvE. High sec gankers have a -10 security status, which means that anyone can shoot at them, at any time. The problem is, high sec care bears are afraid of shooting at other players. Aaaaand, unlawful transgressions against other players result in the addition of a killright. The problem is, high sec care bears won’t bother themselves with learning how to set that kill right to “public” and they are greedy little bears. On the off chance that they do figure this out they set the kill right to 100 zillion kajillion isk. No one is going to pay that to activate it. Especially when the trangressor is already at -10 and free to shoot. On the topic of calling them terrorist. You see there is this standings mechanism in the game. Set known gankers to “bad standing.” Also known as “red” so you know when they are around. As for activity calling them terrorists, well, that’s what these forums are for. I’m glad I was able to help you. ---

What if you would try to intentionally get ganked? Fly a hauler, consider it lost already, but secretly put a lot of tank on it and see if anyone attempts to gank it? Could be fun if they try and fail. ---
