3 years of Eve, and I finally, finally, got ganked in hi sec while mining.

I'm not complaining. I'm just a little bemused, and weirdly proud. I sorta feel like I've made it, for some reason.

Now go right back out there and teach those nasty ganker people a lesson Twisted On a serious note it is very nice to see someone happy(ish) about being ganked Big smile

Pfff n00b. P

Closing on 5 years here, and I haven't managed to get ganked yet, even though I seem to antagonise enough people to warrant it. Maybe it's because I mainly antagonise people who think it should be abolished. Oops

There's something wrong with that statement but I just can't put my finger on it.

...not sure what to say. Confused. While I personally would not be happy to get ganked, I applaud your positive outlook on things... i guess? What?

Congratulations on being ganked while it's still possible. You'll be able to brag about that come winter.

This is in-line with how I think. Getting killed is just part of the way it should go.

You should mitigate the risk to your liking. Greater rewards for larger risks, of course. And then accept the inevitable loss when it arrives as part of the game.

I mined Ice for a month in Gallente space during the Goon Ice embargo, never got ganked. You must have done something wrong......Cool

Why would anyone waste ISK and a locator agent timer when I've just provided my location for free? P
