Well that made me laugh
We don’t need eyes…
ears, smells
What you actually need is big massive NERF
To need at least triple the effort of ganking anything,
Not because i want to or to be mean ,
Just for balance sake
Yes you do
I even know a few Characters used for spyng/scouting/watching for ganks
Gankers are opportunists. Though they may go on a roam covering a dozen systems, they are not gonna travel or scout that far just to find you in particular…unless you happen to be in some particularly juicy ship. Generally they either stay in areas where they know there are easy pickings ( Uedama, Isanamo, etc ) or they go on a dozen system roam hoping to catch people by surprise. But nobody’s saying ’ hey…Roxana is in a system 30 jumps away, lets all fleet up and go there '.
I remember once Cilly sat in Uedama hoping someone would care.
Excellent Eve survival strategy
You don’t want democracy. Anti-ganking whiners keep rigging and attacking every poll because they’re in the minority anyway and aren’t tough enough to admit it.
Also, you’re wrong, you get [any kind of government] by people fighting for it and spilling blood.
Might makes right, in Eve like in real life.
Maybe i should evemail all the ganked players to go aand complain, stop accepting it, i am sure they would be mad enough after losing bilions of isk ships and ■■■■.
Otherwise this will never stop
I think while you have understood the issue with AG in terms of most people not even bothering to save themselves, you have not understood the reason to still AG despite this, and that is because quite simply the gankers are even worse carebears then the people they prey upon. Think about it…
As was said in another thread, the “GANKED” tag is not a good estimate for how many ganks have happened because it is badly coded and majority of ganks doesn’t get this tag. Only ganks with 5+ attackers and at least one of them posting a loss to CONCORD will be flagged this way.
Furthermore many gankers, stopped posting their kills in a response to antigankers emaling their victims for killrights. Action and reaction.
No so, the number is much higher than that. I also thought that ganking is in demise when I came back because I was looking at the killboard “GANKED”, but in reality, the amount of ganks didn’t drop that much from 3 years ago.
To get real number of ganks you need to know all the gank corps and alliances and check their killboard specifically. For monthy you can use Stats page.
And idk, to me 600 bilions destroyed in June by Safety. alone seems pretty much impactful. Add other alliances, solo gankers, and you are at 1 trillion. Is this really insignificant? Why do you think so?
//Btw I destroyed nearly 38bil alone as Alpha player I am proud.
You are forgetting one very important fact, the people getting ganked are usually the laziest of players, ones that don’t think of anti ganking fit’s or living where its slightly less convenient anyone you message will be too lazy to commit any effort to your cause.
More than other alliances, the assets we destroy are predominantly resource harvesters, and their destruction eliminates resources which would have been harvested. I suspect far more wealth is eliminated by forcing people to dock up and stop farming.
I recommend mining in low sec. They don’t go there.
But the difference here, is they took up arms and fought for it. They sacrificed everything to ensure a democracy.
You are just a pacifistic whiner that wants someone else to put in the footwork while you benefit from their sacrifice. Classic Socalist
You want a democracy. Here it is.
I vote for ganking.
Vast majority of players dont know forums exist
its just a few like me that come and complain and all the gankers that come here and make sure the people that complain dont get listened by CCP
Because you fear ganking would get nerfed more than i fear coming back to play
Please cite your source material.
I’d like to see the proof.
More like, they vast majority of players do know they exist. They just don’t give a ■■■■.
If you think only a few people come to the forums to complain about ganking you haven’t been paying attention. Almost every single day there is a new thread about it, discussion about it dwarfs every single other topic by a wide margin. Believe me, CCP is aware. We are all aware. You can stop now.
I will never stop until it stops !
Wait, we can’t just stop a type of gameplay because there is a higher frequency of complaints!
We really should look at the possible solution that is right in front of the capsuleer.
Risk vs Reward is what is driving the complaints is how I am seeing this scenaro play out on a large scale.
