Ganker List hasn’t been updated in years, such a silly channel. Half of the groups they listed are long gone. 🙄 ---

I mean, no, there’s no harm in a dead channel which hasn’t been updated in years and provides people with a bunch of out-dated erroneous information. ---

I think ganking is a dying activity, no? I still haven’t seen any real numbers as to how much ISK income players really make ganking. And if it’s just for the thrill of the gank, that requires a lot of persistence and dedication - something I don’t necessarily see many new players gravitating towards. ---

Yeah, it’s been dying for years, the death of a thousand cuts. Taking away insurance for CONCORDOKEN was the biggest cut. ---

You used to be able to insure your gank ship with platinum insurance and thus reduce the cost of ganking. Which made it more profitable, and thus popular. ---

‘They’re adding to it’ I sure hope so. Because that’s some of the most irrelevant and out of date ‘gank intel’ ive seen in a channel. Watching hs carebears struggle to do something as simple as maintain intel is always so funny. ---

“For all the gankers out there, what would you do if you could no longer gank in high-sec?” I would take Aiko to the aquarium. ---

You can do leisurely stuff in Eve safely. It’s easy. People in null bot all the time AFK nonstop. Botting is the most leisurely activity in any game. That alone proves that Eve is not that dangerous. People multibox and bot in High Sec all the time. Hell, I mine ice with gankers in the same system looking for targets. You just have to know what you’re doing and not be stupid. It’s not hard to survive in this game. Sure, every once in a while, a mistake costs you your ship, but most of the time, I just do what I want. Within reason of course. I don’t own structures anymore since they’re impossible to defend in a system that both eliminates concord protection and allows for giant fleets that promise you’ll spend way more fighting to keep it than you did building the damn thing, but aside from that very broken system, Eve is pretty chill. ---
