I know I was stupid to fly into low-sec with a full implant set but the only thing this “event” provided was a ganker’s paradise. I will learn and adapt. The nature of Eve. But take a look at this: [What to do with Zlaves | Corporation | zKillboard](https://zkillboard.com/corporation/98594756/)

LOL. There is a kill every minute almost!

It’s just side effects of main event. EVE without gankers is like pizza without cheese.  
Too bad for your implants, I sympathize.

That’s where you should have stopped, stop blaming others for your own laziness and bad choices.

You’re missing my point. Of course Eve is dangerous, but this is a particular situation that is kinda lame, in my opinion. Kudos to the corporation to think ahead and prepare for the onslaught, though.

PS. I knew I’d get these types of posts, but don’t care. Keep flashing your e-peen.

I’d do the event if countering instawarping interceptors wasn’t a well known tactic these days. But event seems harmless enough.

I accidentally applied the Grand Prix Interceptors Expert System to one of my characters.

I feel so dirty.

I have enjoyed it so far. Despite playing this game so long I saw things I haven’t seen before. The gate camps add some extra spice. Fast align plus shields = win 🙂

Ganking is the point of the game?

PVP combat might be the point of the game, but ganking is just a workaround because CCP have been unable to promote regular combat between people who want to engage in it.

Shuttle, no implants. You run into a smartbomb gate camp (don’t forget to warp in at a distance first), you either go around it or you wait it out. Drop clones here and there, pod your way back if needed.
