Nerf Ganking Megathread

At a cost of additional subscriptions.

It’s not just free.

There aren’t many people willing to do that, which is a form of balance itself.

It’s free if your mom pays for them.

or if the SP farm pays for itself.

Is your mom a SP farm ?

That depends entirely on whether we can claim it as an IRS tax deduction.

I am happy to see that this is growing into the promised megathread.

Summary so far:

Point: “The rules say you can do it, so that is part of the game.”
Counterpoint: “But if you do it, you are a terrible person.”

Why all should be measured by isk. How about the gamers skills, experience and brain.?

The only way a megathread could ever work is if its tightly and instantly moderated. That’s never going to happen. Sadly this will actually be worse than the regular gank related threads, though I think Shipwreck Jones mean well.

Because money is all those combined. If you don’t have a brain, you can buy someone’s .

Precisely like that, just without regular wipes and “npc sells all for 100 isk”.

Here’s some spice:

From the perspective of the case against ganking, if two industrial corps have a fall out, and at least one is not wardeccable, is it not ok for one party to gank the industrial ships of the other?

In my experience, they will never use violence against each other. Even during the days of cheap wars they wouldn’t.

There was a lot of staring at each other across the system and/or local smack-talk/cursing though.

Ehh debateable, but not the nub of the question.

Is it wrong to bash the miners of an economic rival?

How do you know they are the miners of an economic rival ?

In this example, they are in the corp that is in opposition to the corp considering the attack.

Absolutely not. Why would it be?

Thats what Im wondering.

Is this, from the persepctive of those in opposition to the mechanic of ganking, an immoral or objectionable use of the mechanic? And why?

Violence is never okay. Why can’t we all just get along?
