Weird, right? If ganking is so easy and basically free money, why isn’t everybody doing it? Is it because it’s morally wrong and all the people playing in HS are actually angels?? With confused regards -James Fuchs ---

Is it because it’s morally wrong and all the people playing in HS are actually angels?? I don’t think it’s easy - and there are probably more occasions where it’s “famine” vs. “feast”. I don’t think morals really enter into the equation. ---

It’s not super hard, but it is quite boring, there’s a lot of scouting and waiting for a target. This also means while it can be lucrative it’s not a steady income. If insurance paid out for CONCORDed ships, it would be easier to make a steady income with fewer ships, i.e. characters/accounts/players, and thus it would become more prevalent. ---

I don’t gank but find plenty to do like playing Vanguard. Running the belts in Null, ESS sites, data and relic sites, mining, FW and general mischief in Null like bombing a Keepstar in Stealth Bomber and watch while everyone warp around trying to find me. ---

No…you were asking for actual NAMES of devs… Ever thought that said dev maybe does not want that? I mean me saying the things i said as a player and user is one thing, but dropping names is complete out of the question because it COULD cost a job if things go downhill… ---
