I'm looking at you funny now, if that helps.

I'm looking at YOU suggestively while you look at him funny. I know it helps me :) .

But on the OP, i've had exactly one suicide gank attempt against me, like 3 years ago. I had an officer mod in my prorator (back when they could be scanned and passed through Niarja. Next thing I know I was in hull, but that was as far as it went because I actually tanked my transport. The officer mod wasn't actually worth that much but i guess these guys saw "omg officer mod" and fired. I talked a little smack in local and the gankers actually showed me some respect because I tanked my ship.

Gankers only exist because of the weak and the lazy. Get rid of the weak and the lazy, get rid of gankers.

I happen to agree. The criminal/suspect flagging system should be the entirety of the policing mechanic, imo. If a criminal is flagged for his activities, it should be up to the players to eliminate him. I am wholly against a mechanic in any game that offers just one inevitable outcome - and guaranteed intervention from CONCORD for the destruction of a criminal ship falls under that bracket.

Faction police should act as CONCORD in 0.5 and of course you should still be able to escape them!

Only if flags and timers are persistent. After all, police don't stop chasing a criminal after 15 minutes, nor do they give them a pass if they hide in a house for a few minutes. Timers should only run down while the character is in space, and they should be increased to a minimum of a week.

Only if Concord also kills every other freighter that auto pilot in space.

Gonna derail here lol, but one of THE most fun things I participated in EVE was back at the start of Faction Warfare. I was in the Gallente (France ftw) Militia and some GalMil FCs got together with some out of militia folks and hatched an incredible plan.

The out of FW group basically aggro'd and then Thank the faction police in Nourvekaiken (high sec). Our Gallente Milita fleet jumped in, warped around and SLAUGHTERED caldari milita ships in a plaace they thought was safe. It was freaking Pearl Harbor in space and we were the ones yelling Banzai! They turned around and did the exact same thing to us at Villore hours laters, I lost like 6 drakes and a Dominix trying to fight off the smelly squid tide while eating baguettes and listening to La Marseillaise.

CCP stomped down Hard on it, with a patch coming out lightning fast. But for that brief moment in time, Faction Warfare was awesome lol.

My industrialist/trader friend said he will be investing about 10-15 billion isk to ganker crews during the holiday season in December.

I just think we need more space rich guys like him to take their isk made on the market and invest it in gankers and creating more wars.

Tell him to not waste his isk.

Instead, he should realise a plan for galaxy wide domination of trade routes.

He has the starting capital. Blindly giving it to sheeps,
without any bigger picture behind it,
is just a waste of money.

Strangely, this mirrors what I think might happen in the not too distant future: You are either with the Empires (FW or NPC corp) or against (all player run corps not in FW). Remember, as CONCORD Admiral Chinballs (as he is affectionately known by all capsuleers) said: "There will be consequences!".
