Just imagine the utopia they would create. A world of no ganking and effortless isk grinding…. And the topics on the forum would be “this game sucks, it’s too easy.”
“CCP needs to make the game more challenging or I’m leaving”
“3 things to make EvE better. Harder NPCs, PvP and redistribution of the isk wealth.”
“Market prices have crashed. Too much Veldspar by the big alliance miners have pushed out the new bro. Ban alliances.”
Won’t it depend?
If you’re the scout, or the FC deciding which target is feasible, then yes, it does take skill and experience.
If you’re there in a DPS Cat to approach and scram, shoot and maybe web the target, then , not so much…
I love how the gank-haters says that we are multiboxing because we are anti-social, greedy and don’t want to split loot, or just lazy to get a friend.
Yet at the same time they call those gankers who are helping others and just sit idle till the action starts a no-skill, no-effort, lazy and I don’t even remember what else.
Meanwhile, the true anti-socials are the players that just want to be left alone to solo PVE content, without any possibility of interaction with anyone else.
They’re even more anti-social when they come to the forum to complain that someone interacted with them.
Off topic: anyone noticed Cylla’s new alt on the forums? They are starting to break character. See if you can spot them.
On topic: So apparently there are plenty of AGers according to Brisc. How many AGers compared to Gers do you think he considers plenty? Or has he just made an off the cuff comment without considering it?
Yes, it was highly informative because it finally gave room to the other side’s position, how hisec gankers see the game and the impact, and explaining what and why, and putting things into perspective.
If anything it was also an antidote to the toxicity in the many threads about ganking, toxicity from people unwilling to accept the heart of the game and unwilling to make token efforts to avoid getting killed in space, unwilling to acknowledge this is a multiplayer full-on pvp game anywhere on the map.
