Assembly Hall

Now, this is just a thought and while I expect a little flaming for this, it's a legit question too. There are a few common facts that can be pointed out:

1. Concord does a good job killing the people that attack or attempt to kill you wronfully.
2. Suicide ganking is a great way to make isk.
3. Suicide ganking is in and of itself generally disliked by the community of carebears, which I suppose is reasonable by itself.

But just a thought...

How much of an impact on Eve would it have if Concord not only took military action against transgressors, but also took repair action in an attempt to protect the innocent?

It's probably just a silly idea, but I just wanted to throw it out there anyways. If it sounds legit, seems like an interesting thought. If not, oh well who cares. Generally my idea is that most Gate Campers and Suicide Gankers are fairly low in experience and are just looking for something to kill and/or a way to earn isk. Granted, there are quite a few experienced PVPers who gate camp and suicide gank as well, I mean, why not? It's certainly not illegal, and the reprocussions you get for doing so are justified. But from my understanding, if you want to learn PVP, invite someone to a duel, toss a can out, do it one on one, go into low-sec and get into a fleet and have some real battles. I tend to find blog gate camping and suicide ganking in or near high sec to be kind of petty.

The real fights, wars, where Eve lives and thrives, is in null-sec.

But really though, why is it Concord has all this amazing military strength but doesn't seem to give a crap about repairing anyone?

Just a thought :) call me crazy if you wanna. :)

I'll just say. As someone who mostly could be described as a 'carebear', we at least have a responsabikity to engage in an activity known as CYA. COVER YOUR A....

And...what is the proposal here?

As a dedicated carebear with knowledge of null/low securities, I don't like this idea. Eve is not a PvE or a PvP game - it's a market game, and as such, the PvPers take care of the balance of power. You should thank them for helping the gristmill of the economic engine run.

I cannot support this idea. While I don't like the activity of PvP, high-sec is already too safe. The only thing I would support is that Concord takes action against criminals, maybe by increasing their response times where the perpetrator is of low security status, or attacking those deep enough outright.

Remember to thank the suicide ganker next time for keeping the wheels of commerce running smoothly. I've been ganked before too (and lost over 10b ISK), but that's Eve for ya, and ISK faucets aren't too hard to come by. Play smarter with tanking and repping on your industrial - especially now with the revised industrial ships.

1. I really don't care. Completely honestly, I don't give a crap. It was an idea and I could honestly care less of the outcome.
2. Obviously you didn't understand the purpose of the proposal. You would still duel, can flip, and war dec. It just brings to question why Concord would blast away the bad guy and let you perish. If you're going to take any good-sameritan action, then why not repair ships being wrongfully attacked?

It is a thought-provoking idea. However, either way, I don't care. I just wanted to put it out there. Take it as you will.

Because I can, and because I wanted to. No idea is "crap". If you don't like it, that's your perogative, doesn't make it stupid.

I retract the proposal, please lock/delete thread.
