They are not bullies, that’s just how they roll, loc.  
They are taking advantage of the mechanics put in place by CCP, yo, so if anyone gets mad at gankers he/she should really be mad at CCP but even that is in vain, man, because EVE is PvP and anyone who undocks accepts the risk of getting blown up, G.

I just don’t understand how you can put your whole game into a freighter and not scout the gates carrying it to Jita.

@Spring_Sky I don’t know how people think, Spring. I barely know how I think, when it happens. I would guess laziness, wanting to save time and maybe a false sense of security.  
I got my pod trashed last week because I thought it has fast align. I was just going to pick up my shuttle that I had left a few systems beyond so I got lazy and died. Live and learn.  
I have no idea how some players will transport billions worth of stuff and not use a scout beforehand. Again, laziness, haste…?

I think it’s more like “I can do what I want, and no, I won’t accept the consequences”.

I’m sure there’s a word for that attitude Analoreke, but it escapes me at the moment.

You mean _entitled_ ?  
I can hardly believe that players would go onto a PvP game believing they can do anything they like without expecting consequences. But then again, it’s a crazy world so maybe I might believe it.

Can’ beat a good Gregorian chant…however you probably want to ‘prey’, unless you are really bad in which case praying might work.

Depends on who’s actually doing the gate camp I guess, no doubt you would loose a fair few battles, it would probably take a bit more than 6 or 7. I find a lot of people are scared to Hotdrop in case they then get hotdropped in turn. Also it would only work for a while then word would get round and they would be ready for you. Find out who all your scouts are etc

Gatecamps are not dumb, they have scouts. And what you gonna catch with a fat bc anyway?

You sit there with your 6 BC’s you will soon be in pods.

Heck why not bring battlships instead? Make sure to fit purple mods just in case.

You obviously send in bait and tackle first. And I know what gate camps are like since ive been in a few myself. Like i said its the people who do nothing but camp I don’t like.

It’s like at the very moment they lost 40 bill, they realize they should have bought a hauling permit not to be confused with a mining permit.

@Spring_Sky Wait a minute, there’s Hauling permits _and_ Mining permits? o.O  
What’s next, Docking permits, yes? That way they can’t dock and be safe until they pay up 😁

But I can understand hauling permits, like the over-the-road truckers have to pay to haul.  
Some of them have beautiful rigs! Like they used SKINR, lol
