Being space rich has its perks.

I injected marauder V for a measly 250b.

It took about 30 minutes 😁

Reading comments about ruining Lores in HS. I think suicide ganking is a necessary evil. We don’t need a lot of SaltyBear Ranters in HS but those who can Adapt. Gankers Protects highsec in a way.

I haven’t been podded in high sec that I can recall. I checked on the kill board and can’t find anything in high sec. Maybe year one? I don’t recall. However I frequent low sec and last year I was killed once and lost 2 ventures and 2 miasmos. I expect to lose more mining in low sec, but I guess I am doing it all wrong.

Have fun!

So by causing destruction, they’re saving us from not having destruction?

That’s a pretty cynical statement 🙂

As for Netflix, Everyone in Eve watches Netflix. Even in Null sec. We all do it- even gankers watch Netflix when they’re camping a gate for 30 hours LOL!

Besides, what’s the point of having three monitors if I can’t use one of the screens for entertainment while the other two display both my accounts?

Actually, some gankings don’t have to wait for a long time.  
A fleet from Jita who kill miners can gank a ship in 5min.

Suicide Ganking should be buffed. HishSec are full of Ungrateful, Greedy Incels. Githany’s Ideology was proved to be wrong. Aiko was right. all along. How naive of me. I wasted my time supporting the AG’s. Don’t help PVEr’s that spits on your face.

It’s time to support the Suicide Gankers, no string attached. Destroyers are too cheap we can donate thousands to them.

Why would anyone hang out in the slums of Jita? I went to Uedama. That’s how it felt. It’s Jita’s back alley.

Dunno. From observing the Ganking vs Antiganking stuff ingame, I often got the impression that player driven “Law Enforcement” Career simply isn’t supported ingame in any way. There are a few ways how to ‘prevent’ a gank or even make it fail, so the gankers lose all their ships… but none of them will offer the AG a tropy (killmail aequivalent), a reward or even a “thank you” in most cases, since the ganktarget was more or less afk or totally clueless and didn’t even know what happened or why he survived.

I could imagine that a _well designed_ player driven Law-Enforcement system _could_ attract players who want to play the “white knights”, but that would have to be designed very very carefully to keep it balanced and no side is at a too huge disadvantage. Both should have options to succeed, if they are good at what they are doing. And that is something I don’t see being realized in the next decade. 🤣

How so?

You do get a killmail on the gankers. If this is combined with the lack of a killmail made by those gankers at the time shows you have a successful anti-gank killmail, or an unsuccesful one if there’s a related kill by those gankers against some poor hauler or miner.
