That’s not what happened. One dude wrote an INN article about it, and there might have been a few more idiots saying that. But a cursory search across the forums and reddit shows that the overwhelming majority of gankers basically said that that they will deal.
I have no doubt that there were a few idiots/bad faith arguers, but they were definitely a tiny minority. Thus, it is disingenuous to say that “gankers were screaming about it ending ganking.” So, I guess the question is, are you misremembering things, or are intentionally arguing in bad faith yourself? Perhaps you want to paint us being alarmists in order to get people to dismiss our valid concerns.
Of course, there were a ton of posts supporting my assertion. But, I think I’ll just link this one. You might remember it. After all, you gave it a like.
