So when CCP bans ganking from Highsec, as you want, is there any reason for players to use anything less than an ORE strip miner Hulk, expanded freighter on AFK autopilot, or officer mod Marauder?
You know, I haven’t the faintest idea what you’re on about, Iceacid, but I am glad you’re here, always lightening the load!
Strange how every single thing anyone else says is ’ just your opinion’…whilst your own every word is hallowed by Zeus himself and is never ever ’ your personal opinion’…eh.
Sometimes he says “I disagree” as if that is the end of the discussion.

Thanks though!
I deposit the rapidly accelerating drop in player count as Exhibit A.
Anti-player behavior needs to be punished severely with REAL consequence.
If CCP keeps encouraging and facilitating such behavior then the numbers will continue to reflect their poor management of this eternal axiom.
You’re welcome!
I can’t afford you!
I have a couple of criminal pilots and they keep my attention sometimes while I am on a belt mining or sitting in a station afk for the night. I wonder if I will receive a ban as my pilots names were Jody Longbuck who is now biomassed and Jimmy Frostpacker is trying to repair his standings.
/Also I would like to bring it out into the open so we can confirm on the ruling if there will be a change to Highsec Ganking will these rules also be changed or upheld.

PvP behavior needs to be supported strongly with REAL consequence for losers.
If CCP keeps encouraging and facilitating PvE carebear behavior then the numbers will continue to reflect their poor management of this PvP game.
Reminds the judge that correlation is not causation. Ganking existed long before any fall in player count.
Very true…and it has a negligible impact on the player base.
I demand CCP bans all players who have historically supported ganking, starting with me.
If my demand is not met, I swear I will turn these forums so blue you will have no choice.
I’m just confused, is ganking griefing or not ? ???
Is it allowed by CCP or not?
Does anyone know the rules???
The rules are easy.
If it doesnt make Hilmar money its griefing.
Simples.

Ok, but if there’s no ganking, what is the reason?
Why use a procurer instead of an ORE strip miner Hulk?
ok but since u know where we are talking about…

Does it make Hilmar any money?
Then no
But you don’t have any direct evidence of correlation. CCP certainly haven’t provided any direct data. They have stated that blowing up new players in rookie ships does not fit their ‘cruel but fair’ model…but then that is nothing new as new players are already protected from ganking in no less than 35 systems ( something you persistently ignore ).
Nowhere does CCP say that the fall in players is directly due to noobs being ganked, or to what extent it may be the case if it were true. That correlation is largely something you have made up and assumed.
What’s more, noobs get attacked by NPCs in mining belts all the time. Whilst the NPCs are generally weak, they can be much stronger at times and can even warp scram a Venture and destroy it. So CCP doesn’t seem to have an issue with noobs being ganked by NPCs. Odd, that.
Why should there be any reason not to use ORE strip miner hulk with 3x Aoede mining laser? The whole point of this game is to maximalize the sweet ISK/h rates after all.
