But if it becomes less risky, it won’t be SUICIDE anymore. Instead, it would only be normal PVP. 🤢

Criminal Actions is neither legal nor condoned, anywhere. Committing such actions voids any and all benefits that would otherwise be available.

I would definitely be in favor of that, because the gankers just do their thing and then dock again. Right now, there is almost no way to catch them.

What exactly is unfair?

They choose their ships and fits. Ganksters also choose their ships and fit. In a struggle of intelligence, they choose to be unarmed.

Whether the victim is unarmed is besides the point, it’s almost always: Many 👥 vs 🧔 One

That is more irrelevant than you might think.

This is a social game, if a person chooses to be solo then they also choose to take responsibility for their own protection. Everyone can make alts, so if you choose to not live or operate within a society, you can still make choices.

One is solo, the other is also “Solo” but with multitude of accounts. Not so much a social game in that regard.

It’s pretty social, there’s 120 people in my channel right now.

**Why Was I Ganked?**

The admission fee is 150 million isk.

A lot of people assume ganksters are solo and using alts, but this is not always the case. The Gankster community is vast, but also vastly outnumbered by miners that refuse to defend themselves or take any action at all to protect their oh so valuable highsec ore

colleague, I recommend providing your [zkillboard.com](http://zkillboard.com) so it can be analyzed what you are doing wrong  
-start flying in a group  
-or find a better group

- currently ganking is very easy, if you cannot manage seek advice and learning and about 90% of gankers will teach you  
-if this did not help, change the game

A trash topic for the impaired.

I suspect your insurance claim was rejected due to the egregious grammatical mistake in the title of your post.

I appreciate seeing a post like this. There is absolutely no reason half a million isk ships should take down half a billion isk ships fully suited in high security without bleeding half or a thirdof the forces in the process. if it was easy to suicide gank and easily achieved to earn isk through this method it would not be considered “High Security Space” anymore.

Unfortunately, it is the reality that a few bombers of about 50 million each can kill a Marauber. Or just recently experienced a failed gank of 9 Coercers trying to kill my Golem.

Standing can be repaired way too easily with some of those Concord tags. Which, by the way, makes no sense at all. It would be better to remove the entire security standing system instead.
