> [@Tharshe\_Bloes](#): > > EVE Online isn’t simulating perfect law enforcement In fact, it’s deliberately NOT simulating perfect law enforcement. It’s intentionally simulating a corrupt dystopian future, where a ganking princess like me is able to bribe the NPCs in order to do as she pleases.

There is no “precrime” in EvE. If pilots aggress others illegally concord destroys their ship, gives them a security status penalty, and a timer. After that their status resets until they get such a poor security status that they are persona non grata in the space Concord patrols. Concord does not prosecute precrimes. That was a different ip. ---

Just state that clearly You’re drawing a false line between gameplay and lore here—they actually align. In-universe, CONCORD isn’t meant to prevent crime, it’s meant to guarantee punishment. That’s a political compromise between empires that preserves sovereignty while keeping highsec economically stable. Total prevention would require preemptive control the empires wouldn’t allow. So the logic is consistent: highsec isn’t “safe,” it’s controlled through consequences, not protection. > [@Reminder that suicide ganking is lore friendly](https://forums.eveonline.com/t/reminder-that-suicide-ganking-is-lore-friendly/154626): > > I’ve seen it often bandied about as a “reasonable”/“lore based” reason that suicide ganking makes no sense because no one would ACTUALLY kill themselves if they didn’t know they could respawn, or something along those lines. As a reminder: every single capsuleer DOES know they’ll “respawn”. Lorewise, we are taught throughout capsuleer training of the ability for the Jovian space magic to capture our neural imprint and transfer it if we should die.

Because pretty much all law enforcement is reactive, they require you to commit a crime before they can punish you for it People can openly carry firearms in america but the police won’t react until you try to use one illegally EVE is essentially the same, they trust you’re an adult and able to prevent yourself from breaking the law, however they will punish you should you do it Pre-emptive locks of weapon use also really don’t work as there are cases where you would want to be able to shoot someone without having to deal with concord giving you permission to press F1 ---

Where did “you say” anything? Please point out? Just for your reference, i automatically filter out AI slop. So those posts don’t count as “saying” something. Maybe also consider “writing” something. And if you do, write it by yourself if you expect others to also read it by themselves? If not also ok since as i posted, i automatically filter it out.
