Pipe down miners. Your addictions to veldspar blind your ability to see the necessity of ganking new players. We are trying to prevent future drug addicts. Think of us as a specialized anti drug task force of heroes that save Eve online miners from the horrors of scordite everyday. You are welcome…there is no need to slow clap.

Probably. But if a single blinged out Raven is _literally all a person had_, and they lost that…well, they were too stupid to be playing Eve.

Exactly. It’s not a ganking problem. It’s an education/mindset problem that CCP can address through NPE and Career Agents far more effectively than just “banning ganking”

Agreed. In fact just looking at my own stats only about 20% of my ‘worth’ is in ships. No way would I ever let that get above 50%. Anyone who is spending 90 - 100% of their worth on ships, especially if its just one or two blingy ones, is just asking for trouble.

It’s all kinda connected. It’s a complex issue.

This is the main point i read right? Well this is already kinda the case, gankers do expect some tank such as a DCU so it’s irrelevant most of the time, fitting one wont save you. As for freighters they can scan the fit so once again irrelevant. But the game would need a rebalance i am not saying otherwise. It would be a big change yes i agree

But how do you rebalance a “ship for life”? Belt rats cant kill mining ships in belts unless the pilot does something stupid.

Therefore as long as the player stays in highsec that ship will never be destroyed. How do you balance that?

As for freighters, so what. The game could host bigger battles if there was less stuff destroyed in high sec. Isnt that what CCP want?

I mean the persons dying to ganks are noobs mostly, the bigger players dont die to ganks, or at least not often. So i dont really see a big change there either, at least with mining barges. Freighters are another story

Still, give more reason to fight over low and null sec and less in high sec, that is my main point. Real pvp.
