Disabling docking in NPC stations to criminals, that is justfied and logical and I can understand it, but disabling gates too? That isnât logical at all and seems as a another of these âsolutionsâ which has single goal â remove ganking from the game allthogether.
Well you can disable -10 chars to use gates, but it wonât solve anything.
We will still be able to clone jump, or self-destruct jump into highec, and even if that wouldnât be possible, we will stage from Thera and gank in whichever hs that day whs leads to.
Agree it would be excessive and is a sort of âstealthâ nerf ganking proposal.
However from a lore perspective it would make sense as some missions involve smuggler and pirate stargates that operate outside the normal gate network, thus would fit in with the lore.
Although I must make it clear I just mention this fact for the sake of having this fact stated and am absolutely not suggesting CCP should implement an outlaw gate network of sorts that only -10 can use as this would be a nightmare of its own to implement and require a lot of effort better put elsewhere. (Though sounds reasonable from a lore perspective and an interesting idea on its own but not even sure it would be the proper or best solution even then.)
As it should. In reality, people pay taxes and expect better security in nicer areas. Why should Eve be different? Please go down to the Las Vegas strip and start acting a fool and let me know how that works out for you. If you actually commit a serious crime you wonât have a pod to jump intoâŚThey keep the street âcleanâ so the high rollers keep coming back.
And now youâre comparing a video game to real lifeâŚ

As a side note, there are literally hookers and drug dealers all over Vegas, along with loan sharks and enforcers. Itâs called Sin City for a reasonâŚ
Iâd shorten the length of kill rights. OK so I killed someone, but that was planned in minutes and executed in seconds ( I had a 10 second window in which to shoot them). The opportunity for the kill was not a 28 day windowâŚso why should the ârecompenseâ be ?
In real life, crime is equally illegal everywhere. There arenât âhigh-securityâ and âlow-securityâ areas where the consequences for committing crimes are different.
I donât know how you canât see the difference, but then again if your ant-like intelligence enables you to demand the same kind of legal and moral imperative enforcement in a science-fiction role-playing video game as in real life, I can probably imagine.
Got it. You want zero consequences for your actions.
But, at the same time, you want to punish people that are willing to work hard and build something in this game. Then, you want to take their earnings.
Makes perfect sense.
so¡cial¡ism
noun
a political and economic theory of social organization which advocates that the means of production, distribution, and exchange should be owned or regulated by the community as a whole.
Why are you so obsessed with Vegas? This the 2nd time you used this example
This a vidya game bruv
ROFL. Keep telling yourself that Ah. So naive.
Bro. You know we playing a vidya game right? Right?
Yes? Its fun being a pirate Also uh, this is an open world PvP game where you consent to PvP as soon as you undock. If you wanna build something in space, go play No Manâs Sky
Then feel free to tell me how a âsafe conductâ contract currently works in-game. Without relying on the âhonorâ system for payment. Because EVE, honor⌠not a good match.
They donât exist any more than Courier contracts would exist if there was no courier contract system. If your âcontractâ system is an honor agreement that âyou do X for me and Iâll do Y for you and weâll both be bound by our word, wonât cheat, wonât betray you to other people, wonât steal your stuff, and will pay fully and on timeâ then youâve clearly misunderstood EVE.
A contract system makes it a reliable, enforceable business. An honor system in EVE makes it a scam factory.
Youâre not in an alliance, and never have been. Youâre in a 5-man corp that misspelled the word âAlianceâ. And if you spent 4 months ganking with only less than a bill profit, they canât be paying you much.
TBH the one who looks greedy, lazy, and wanting to fly around EVE solo here is you. Are you too greedy and lazy to team up with a looter and share your profits with them?
Ganking pays because the profit mechanism is built right in (if youâre not too greedy and lazy). Thereâs no profit in anti-ganking against 3-million ISK gankfit Catalysts.
You and Altara Zemara are also quite naive if you think that big ganking isnât about profit. Itâs not only the profit from the ganks - the big ganking corps have their own industry farms, mining ops and trading business.
Ganking is as much about âmaking sure other peopleâs products donât make it to market so we can sell ours at more profitâ as it is about the gank.
At least, on the corp leadership side. Underlings and greedy, lazy solos donât really count.
Also uh, this is an open world PvP game where you consent to PvP as soon as you undock. If you wanna build something in space, go play No Manâs Sky
