So if I put my ship in front of another moving ship I can flag anyone as a suspect and freely attack them? I don’t think you’ve thought this one through…
There is no way to determine who the ‘bumper’ is when two ships collide, without it being abused by those evil people who want to kill your ship in high sec.
Simple and perfect fix without drawbacks:
As soon as you hit Warp, you can not be bumbed anymore.
Gives the Middlefinger to Gank Psychos. You will still be able to defend against toxic Carebears.
Have a strawman award.
I mean you could equally say that it’s been lobbied for high sec to be removed therefore anyone who doesn’t want to let bumped ships eventually warp wants high sec removed.
The two are not automatically connected.
You are not ‘bypassing Concord intervention’ if CCP have decided Concord intervention isn’t required for bumping. You’re inventing a ‘crime’ when none exists, stick with the facts.
That’s called inference.
People infer (because that’s how our brain works) rules from situations that repeat. It’s not about being good or bad to do so (it’s bad, but it’s the only way to enjoy a game).
The more exceptions you have to rules, the more annoying it becomes to follow the rules. To the point we move from game “depth” to game “cumbersomeness”. An example of that is the way Aura tells you to orbit the rats in the NPE. It’s stupid, but at the same time it’s needed to have a single rule to follow : orbit the rats to kill them.
It’s the same for concord. People don’t remember the list of items that actually create a suspect/criminal action. And the rule that they infer from Concord reaction if “if it reduces my mobility or harms my assets then it becomes criminal” . That’s why people don’t understand why killing mtu only gives suspect, but understand that festival launchers don’t. Even if they don’t formulate this, the brain process information to create the most generic rules.
So yes it’s not written in any rule of the game. Actually no rule is written for concord. When you start the game you can’t say in advance the real ruling. That’s why people make this general ruling. And from the general case, it’s “if you impend someone ability to act or harm his assets you get concordoken”.
The fact that bumping allows you to prevent someone from warping and does not produce a criminal flag like the point does, is thus absurd.
Of course we are all talking about modifying the concord rules, which means we KNOW they do not forbid bumping so far - otherwise we would not have asked for it. You must be particularly stupid to not understand this.
Whoa, calm down. I’m just asking you to imagine what your reaction will be if they were to implement the changes you want but it having no affect on freighter death.
My guess is that you won’t just accept the fact that EVE is a game where carebears in freighters die sometimes.
