“PvP change” is the only answer 🙂 ---

I never said it needed to be. Calm down, ganker. I just said it bugs me. ---

That was the rationale for being unable to change course in midwarp. Bumping was something that players found out that could be done. Is this whole thread another I hate gankers. Seriously? Here is a suggestion and that is all it is. Develop situational awareness. Always, ALWAYS be alert. Hit your dscaan regularly even in highsec. Most especially mining. Pay attention to your overview. Do not think that just because you do not see someone. That there is not a ship cloaked somewhere nearby that sees you. Presume there is. Always! If you are making any trip out of your home system. Use the third party tools and see where the gate campers are or were. Plan your trips carefully. Ganking is going to happen. It is part of the game whether you like it or not. There is damn good reason why I have lost so few ships in the year and some that I have been playing. Have only one or two ships actually blown up by gankers. Every ship I lost was due to my own stupidity. I got caught out and learned better. Being ganked is like stubbing your toe. Painful and you curse yourself for stubbing your little toe on the dresser. Then you get to the nearest station and replace the ship. That is where I come in.. If you lost your venture to a ganker. I will sell you a nice shiny new venture. plus some modules A ganker that that just got blown up by the space police, A nice cheap frigate. Plus ammo and some modules. As one player accused me of being a filthy arms merchants. That always gives me a chuckle. Gankers and anyone blowing up ships are good for my bottom line. As my skills increase and can do more BP’s. The more I can offer on the market. At a reasonable price of course. ---

Is this whole thread another I hate gankers. Seriously? Yes. Players like him has only one agenda. And that is to remove all PvP from this game or at least from highsec (which is the same for them since they never leave highsec). And if you don’t agree with anything they write, then you are a ganker and your opinion is meaningless. ---

Wrong 🙂 I just like for things to make sense. If you knew half of what you pretend to, you’d know that much. But hey, gankers can’t be bothered with learning I guess 🙂 ---
