Not meant to be.

This also has an effect on the amount of isk that can be gained from such activities which to some of us is impotant and vital to our continued existance within EVE.

Eve players have been too productive. This is why CCP are dialling back rewards and thinking of ways to up destruction.

If ganking has been affecting player productivity, this is a good thing. This is what we need.

Part and parcel of eve. This is the kind of game where you can threaten and extort other players. As long as it’s all done in game and doesn’t become harassment by CCP’s terms.

Yes.

Either way ther have to be rules and any breaking of these must be met with severe consequencies otherwise the game will eventually die because the fun will die and no one will want to play this game anymore.

Criminal behaviour like murder, theft and such are not ‘real life criminal actions’ when committed in a game. Especially a game that is designed to allow such actions.

Ganking has been around since eve’s inception. Hisec has never been a safe place. Eve has been dieing since 2003…
