Oh Im certain there are people who read the forums.

You are poor and never carry anything worth the gank anyway, so that you yourself escape doesn’t really matter.

Rather sad that you have to gank people to get rich. Ganking is a poor gamers excuse. Gotta have a lot cash right now, you dont want to wait and do something constructive.

High Sec gankimg is like I said, a poor gamers excuse. Back in the day, your type of poor wouldnt have lasted long due to all of the Mercs placing war decs on anyone in High Sec with a corporation.

Like I said, High Sec Ganking is a poor gamers excuse.

Most freighter pilots need a scout, a webber, and a brain to pass through highsec with 100% safety.

Dryson needs billions of isk worth of escort ships to still whine and cry about it.

Still whining about whining scissoring?

High Sec gankers are poor gamers due to the change in war dec mechanics.

Like I said, High Sec gankers are poor gamers due to the mentality of doing things easy without little toil.

Also, I don’t whine about your silly little idea.

You occasionally like to mislead people into possibly thinking you have the faintest clue what you’re talking about here, and I bring that glorious idea you had out to let them know who they’re talking to.

You don’t want newbies to get the wrong impression now, do you?

Give us back the ability to WD null again and I think we will find our problem with gankers mostly, (there will always be some) solved.

I agree with OP it’s too easy mechanics need reworked, People just un-sub there are too many games to play,  
Been the #1 complaint in forums since launch.  
The gaming community has grown intolerant of griefing.  
Ganking is fine but needs to be much harder requirements, more planning, have much higher penalty’s so targets are picked accordingly.  
As it is it’s 90% Grieving 10% ganking

If ganking is fine, why does it need to be a lot harder? That doesn’t make sense.

And if it’s not griefing, just get ganked and get better. Learn from it and move on. It’s possible to not get ganked (gate camps are still a problem, but even they can be avoided or even limited to super rare occasions and they can even be survived).

This is a PvP game. It’s going to happen, but you’re not going to be ganked every single day unless you do everything wrong with a sign on your ship that reads “Kick me”.

You only lose a ship when you make mistakes.

Listen to MegaMind. Learn from your mistakes and your deaths become teachable moments that make you stronger.

This is typical dishonest blathering toxic griefer copy and paste response “git gud bruh”  
you don’t even know the difference between ganking and griefing

To cut back on griefing so gankers will be focused on high value targets, better logistics and planning., not free for all drive as many new players from the game as possible.

You’re being dishonest again, a new player in basic mining ship is griefing,.. and it is not impossible to not get ganked

again not true PVP games have evolved, for example is WOW the griefing was out of control and the devs saw this and instanced it (im not suggesting this) just pointing out games need to evolve this isnt rust.  
Dune Awakening died in 90 days from griefing and so would have EVE if it launched right now, back then they were the only MMO in existence and for 10 years less than 5 competitors.  
EVE has 20-35k players that is BAD very bad this game should be 150k easy if they address griefing ,. this game is too awesome to only 20k players and its from griefing.  
It’s been the #1 complaint in forums since launch.

No body is saying eliminate it.. it needs to be reworked .. everyone i know IRL that played eve quit from griefing, ive seen entire corps quit.. it’s bad

EVE’s player base is 50-70 year olds… not many new players are joining because of the terrible griefing reputation .. the player base is aging out, it needs to attract younger players

Lots of other things killed wow but not removing griefing

The Trammel server killed Ultima.

No one played the regular servers when you could be safe from PvP and have free mats in the Trammel server.
