Solution to the Empire ganking trend

You’re full of it, CCP are on record as saying the exact opposite with regards to manipulating Concord within the normal parameters that govern their actions.

GM Lelouch

Hello all,

In order to clear up our current stance concerning this mechanic, I’m going to attach the ticket response I sent to Benny Ohu:

We do not consider intentionally spawning CONCORD using disposable ships an exploit at this time. This is, like all policies, subject to change in the future if deemed necessary for some reason, but we have no current plans to make any changes to this stance.

To put our stance quite clearly, we currently make no distinction between these two scenarios:

a. Suicide gank. CONCORD is spawned because Player A attacks Player B without the rights to do so.
b. Defensive spawning. CONCORD is spawned because Player A’s alt character attacks Player A without the rights to do so.

My best guess would be that the confusion stems from different rules having been broken. There are two exploits of sorts which I can think of which could have led to warnings being placed in a scenario similar to “b” above.

Furthermore as per a post in the NRDS Compliant Anti-Gank Permit - #62 by Lawrence_Lawton thread.

TL;DR you have absolutely no idea what you’re talking about, nor can you back up your claims. Now don this dunce hat and go sit on the naughty step to consider the consequences of your ignorance.
