You seem to be confused with an attempted gank and an actual gank. I’ve had plenty of people try. It’s the succeeding part that actually makes it a gank.

I have 9 PVP characters yes.

With Eve having so much to offer i’ve separated them skill wise as 3 industrial/manufacturing, 1 market/locator agent ect. 3 Catalysty, Talos, Thrasher, Tornado pilots & 2 high-sovernity carebear toons for NPSI fleets, event running and the sort.

15’ish years of Eve online. Changing activity from time to time or just doing a bit of everything keeps it interesting for me. Like building my own high-sovernity PVP ships in bulk for cheaper and so on and so forth.

Talking about “ganking” aka PVP and what i wrote there: Yesterday i logged in. Took a Thrasher to stargate. Cargo scanned for about 5 to 10 minutes and got this [https://zkillboard.com/kill/116845283/](https://zkillboard.com/kill/116845283/) logged on to another character to update planetary industry then to another character to update market PVP buy/sell orders.

I don’t know that went a bit off-topic maybe but regarding to defining ganking, pvp and trolling. I see it that all of what i do and listed is in some way just pvp . Plain and simple. For me to manufacture my ships is considered to be market pvp. Updating buy orders to beat others is also market pvp. The fact that i killed someone in high-security at the gate instead of null-security at a deadspace pocket is just as the same, pvp. 🤷🏼 NPSI fleets are pvp. Clearing combat anomalies in a pipe of systems before others thus being faster is pvp against them. Can be trolling too in a way lol 🤷🏼 🤷🏼

Listen here asshole, I’ve admitted my mistakes on that one and I have zero beef with the gankers that did it, I actually found them to be nice people. I’m intentionally trying to forget that because yeah, I messed up big time. Not the first I’ve done that. I would appreciate if you didn’t rub my mistakes in my face. Was actually wondering when someone would mention that to me on the forums.
