No, he didnt. Let me quote him again.

He said Your Job is to stop them. This wasnt an objective rule in terms of his competition, otherwise he wouldve simply stated “Will only pay out if the victim survives”. When he said that your JOB is to STOP them, then that is not an objective rule of his competition.

Yes, he said so.

Why are you being so dishonest, Draclvad? Ive already quoted this section of his post to you.

No, the competition was “if the code gank was successful, no bounty will be paid”.

> [@Quint\_s\_Shark\_Hunters](#):
>
> If the CODE gank was successful, no bounty will be paid

He said, after that, in brackets:

> (ie your job is to stop them)

So theres two things that can happen.

You can either say “If the Code Gank was successful, No bounty will be paid, because it is your job to stop them.”

OR.

You can say “If the code gank was successful, no bounty will be paid, even though I know this isnt the job or goal of AG.”

In both instances, it is the same competition. You will not be paid if the gank was successful.

One of those options, admits that it is not the job of AG to stop ganks, but that stopping the gank is still a part of the competition.

The other, admits that it is the job of AG to stop ganks, and therefore stopping the gank is part of the competiion.

So you are wrong.

Period.

Or the other option (as stated) is to mention that what I said pertains only to the event…You seem to want me to define what AG is(or isn’t) and sorry, that’s not my intent nor is it to define what ganking is (or isn’t). There is no right or wrong for this issue as it pertains to the “CODE Hunt” only. Really not sure why you are drawing a line here other than to argue for the sake of arguing.

Also your two “things that can happen” are incorrect as the #1 determining factor isn’t if a gank was or wasn’t successful, it’s if a CODE ship was destroyed (to some degree) by a player.

I dont understand why it would matter if it were the #1, #4, or #100 determining factor. Part of your rules is that if the gank was successful, then no bounty will be paid. It wouldnt matter if it were the #1000th determining factor, if its still part of the rules and still applies, then it applies and is a part of the rule.

😂 what you want to do is make some incorrect point about the job of another group of players and try badly to paint me as a hypocrite.

You are arguing because you were told by me, that your assumption that the job of AG is to save the immediate victim was wrong. It is well understood by most AG that saving the victim is rather difficult if not impossible in many hauler type gank scenarios. So to see that as our job is just setting up for massive failure. Loot denial works…, which is why you don’t like it.

The OP was talking about his terms for his bounty pay-out, and as such he said that the gank had to fail in order to receive a payout, which is totally fine for him and his ISK. He did not make any comment about AG in terms of this, which is what you did.

And one more thing, do I have the arrogance to define what CODE’s job is, no, but you have for AG.

Antigankers are some of the least skilled and dumbest players in the game. Really makes you wonder what the point of them following gankers in their mind is if they apparently aren’t even trying to stop ganks anymore 🤔

Just to sit there and mildly annoy or harass gankers till they quit the game? Pretty toxic and pathetic 😅

Well, it mustve been depressing for all those years that theyve been lying to themselves, telling themselves that they were making a difference and stopping ganks.

Its those stages of grief. Theyve passed the first stage, denial.
