Suicide ganks (face it, that is what this is) are a valid and viable tactic in EVE. This tactic means that your attacker gets blown up, just like in any normal suicide gank. And just like any other suicide gank there are ways to protect yourself from it; in this case it means having redundant systems and not count on the bare minimum. Or bring ECCM.

The loophole that was plugged recently fixed a tactic that gave no warning AND had NO consequence. EVE doesn't do 'no consequences' (or close to it anyway). This tactic has plenty consequences, namely CONCORDdokken + standings/security hits.

Also, it is GM Homonoia - the goddess of concord and oneness of mind.
Not GM Hormone - the family of chemicals that are designed to do weird stuff to your body and mental state.

I am unsubbing my six accounts until CCP realizes that suicide-ganking is an exploit and a breach of the TOS. They are not going to get any more money out of me until I am able to opt out of being griefed by these mewling, autistic children with no jobs or girlfriends.

Am I doing it right?

I wrote some true EVE stories! And no, they're not of the generic "my 0.0 alliance had lots of 0.0 fleets and took a lot of 0.0 space" sort. Check them out here:

OP, you're dancing because you've just discovered the sky is blue.
It's been blue for millions/billions of years. Kids these days.

This is MORE epic, imo - http://www.eveonline.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=592669&page=11

tl;dr : public cruxification of OP involving illegal RMT isk buy (if you read the whole thread).

At least you're doing it like most high sec carebears :D I even heard some of them petition after a wardec (which could look a lot fairer than suicide ganks) !

Why, he didn't say anything that has not been said by everyone else (including GMs) before.

What he said was: Eve = Consequences. If something lacks them it is considered broken and will be fixed ASAHA (As Soon As Hangovers Allow).

It was as much a slap in the face of the loop-hole abusers who are spamming teary-eyed threads every day to protest the agression mechanic change as was a reiteration of one of the core principles in Eve.

In short: OP fails at comprehension and by extension this thread is fail.

PS: Posting in a fail thread for the WIN!!!!!! \o/

a.) "OP, you're dancing because you've just discovered the sky is blue.

no, Im dancing because CCP I think actively telling the whiners that their whining is useless is just funny.

b.) "tl;dr : public cruxification of OP involving illegal RMT isk buy (if you read the whole thread)."

Interesting, I dont see any nails in my hands nor my feet, being that IM the "OP" in this case and IVE never been involved in RMT, nor do I seem to have even POSTED in that thread you linked.

Good try, sloppy execution.

lol Im LIKING the GMs finally telling the qqing carebears to HTFU and Im still wrong? Man there are some DUMB mfs here or what?

I approve of this post. Without the Jihad mining would be seriously boring. Now I actually have to think a little and keep an eye on local. Boohoo. Of course it sucks sometimes when I am blocked from doing what I want - but then again there's plenty of other stuff to do in EVE.

I think you missed the point about the thread he linked... he wasn't insulting you at all. He was linking another thread that in his opinion had more GM win than what you posted.

The TLDR of that thread, was the first poster posted a rage about his friend getting ISK removed from his wallet for 'No reason' . CCP Prisim X decided on his spare time to take a look to see if the guys claims were warranted. As it ends up, the poster's rage got his friend ANOTHER 10B isk removed, as well as a 2 week ban for RMT.

Honestly, IMO, the RMT thread is better than the one you linked as well.


My personal favourite though was right before the release of the T3 cruisers. Some random was complaining on S&M about how hard it would be to make workable setups due to the number of combos of subsystems. Some Dev replied with an incredibly condensending "OH NO! You'll actually have to THINK about what you're fitting to your ships now!!" or something to that effect.

I'd find the post, but it was a long time ago, and I can't remember anything about the thread except for that, and trust me, I''ve tried looking.

No you should post something like this

I want to be able to be payed and do not want to take financial hit when Concord blows up my ship after action that I took knowing the consequences.

Want to suicide sure go for it it is valid tactic.

Should you get insurance payout when you do it HELL NO HTFU and do your gank calculation right

Have a nice day
