I never said that CCP would āremove gankingā. I said:
To the casual reader, that may seem like the same thing, but itās not.
If you can take a minute and run through this thing again, you should be able to differentiate.
CCP supports suicide ganking. Itās allowed, and they want me to gank.
I asked them in a support ticket, and they said itās ok.
If CCP wants me to stop - all they have to do is ask.
Under the current mechanics perhapsā¦
Yeah Iām sorry, but comments like
and
made me think you hope daddy CCP will come in and end ganking. Clearly you where talking about something completely different.
Is this still about the CONCORD pulling? And you think that will end ganking? Itās like 6s or something, it would just be another nerf, but nothing we canāt adopt too.
In fact, prepping systems to get this additional 6s sucks. If that isnāt available that would make ganking ops more expensive but also easier to prep. Which means the targets donāt get an early warning when a ganker preps the system. They will just come out of nowhere now.
I would not hold your breath that CCP changes this. But even if they do, itās completely inconsequential.
Indeed, itās actually a first class feature. The whole purpose for CONCORDās existence is suicide ganking. This isnāt an emergent feature that players figured out. Itās an actual game feature that was planed and put in there the way it works now.

Why do we need to balance it, actually? Is there something broken with it now?
You dying is part of it working as intended. Didnāt you know āHIGHā in highsec stands for āHere Is Ganking Habitatā
They have indicated asking players for isk to not attack them is a scam. So CCP seems to be not on board with the concept that you guys are scamming people out of isk. Although they are not asking you to stop, they are also not giving you a ringing endorsement. I think you engage in a lot of āthis equals thatā kind of logic. A major cognitive fallacy.

CCP knows that I am killing miners, and demanding they pay rent, just like other alliances do in lowsec, wormholes, and nullsec. CCP said this is allowed. Thereās no reason to debate this. Iām doing it every day. If you donāt like it, come try to stop me.
Scamming has never been illegal in game terms.
Most certainly extortion (which is what it actually is) is not against game rules.
yes they know you are doing it and have called it a SCAM. CCP thinks your a SCAMMER. now own your own logic.
CCP has never called me a scammer.
Regardless, scams are allowed.
Even if I were a scammer, itās part of the game.

You are unloved and hated by the designer of this game. Face it. You make players stop playing and you enjoy that idea. They donāt like you or want you. You are a SCAMMER!
Christ Id hate it if Hilmar loved me.
Id probably make a terrible alt and call gankers scammers on the forums.

I improve player retention.
I motivate plebs to swipe their debit card and pay international transaction fees.
