Fair enough.
Yep that is the lesson, I have made a fair few gankers give up, often without even having to blow up their loot scooper. Many times they don’t dare risk the DST.
The simple fact that the weak spot for multi-taskers and which is hard for the ganker in general is securing the loot. Blowing up stuff is actually rather easy in the main.
Sounds like you understand now, good.
I don’t know if I could just say fair enough, CODE and their ilk try to define AG as failing because they manage to blow up someone with its value in terms of its hull and fittings and its cargo. But because that is so easy to do for gankers and difficult to prevent from the AG side we define our success or not on whether the AG people there manage to stop the ganker getting any or all the loot.
First issue is of course whether there are any AG where the ganks are happening, there are many people who take opportunity to shoot flashy reds, but they are not really AG.
It is also rather difficult to point out a success rate as there is no information readily available on who scooped the loot. But as I know some people who loot scoop and I know their success rate, I can say that they are damn effective. I just park HIC’s and find it amusing that many give up. And I am told I fail to stop ganks…
I will however truthfully say that I avoid trying to counter the massive multi-boxing gankers unless I am with a group of people. And to be blunt Australian Excellence just does not get opposed as he is not in the TZ for that to happen. No wonder he is bored as feck and has to talk up his exploits!
Tbh I dont really, but its good someone finds fun in either of these activities.
Not up to me to understand it really.
Salty drac, still mad
hahahaha
So what about me or kusion who have hundreds of billions and dont care about loot anymore? Whats your excuse there
Youve literally said dozens of times you avoid me because im so good
I’m the best player in the game, I don’t need to talk myself up, Im already standing at the pinnacle, the top alpha male
You lost this argument, thats for sure.
This can all be easily put to rest, by answering a simple question.
Is it AGs job to stop the gank?
Yes, or no.
Stop what gank?
Any gank.
Like a BLOP’s gank?
Any gank.
So like a BLOP’s gank?
Sure, if a CODE member started using BLOPS to gank a target in hisec, that would be included under “Any Gank”.
So you narrowed it down to hisec, that is a start. So it is not ant gank is it?
But I am rather intrigued to see what I am supposed to save as defined by a CODE lover.
We are talking about this in the context of CODE and AG.
Did you forget what the title of the thread, is?
Pointing out that any gank is not just hisec seems to have upset you. In any case don’t CODE have an outreach dept?
Pointing out the context of the discussion seems to have made you go off topic.
And CODE have an outreach dept that operates in nullsec, so your any gank needed clarification.
And AG doesnt.
Well I don’t oppose their ganks for example.
Sure. But lets get back to the discussion at hand, and the context therein.
Is it AGs job to stop ganks?
What do you define as stopping ganks? For me making someone not gank because they won’t pick up the loot is stopping ganks.
