I think that miners should simply be given the pvp flag option. That would solve everything.

No it wouldn't. PVP flag just changes the time it takes for your ship to disappear after you log out.

Yeah, it would be best if they were just able to say "You can't attack me" and be invulnerable. All these flags, statuses etc just make it confusing when you just want people to stop shooting you.

He's talking about ganking for profit. Where the ganker is paid a flat rate for exhumers ganked.

You get the flat rate, not flat rate + hulls.

I hope that clears it up for you.


Where did I speak about price of exhumers or other popular gank targets?

Quote and link.

Wow just go back and read through the thread again.

Try to imagine us all snickering...

You'll get it.

Please read the quote again. I meant the hull ganker uses not the exhumer...

In this case "their" = ganker's

I mean give them the option to be completely immune to aggression. It's what this game desperately needs. Players should be able to choose how they play without being forced to suffer by basement-dwelling sociopath virgins.

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:

Let's do this. Like the famous dawnfall video

All proponents of non-consensual pvp in highsec, please leave...

But farms of monkeys and lesser apes should be allowed to mine in high-sec? Intriguing notion.

All I can find in this thread is gankers whining about tanked Skiffs and how unprofitable it is to gank one.

Because you're worse than monkeys and lesser apes, I guess.

You're even wrong about what he said. He said they don't buy the hulls of the gankers.

That's because "they" pay a flat rate, not for the hulls.

People who kill other people in video games have no place anywhere in modern society. At this point it's simply a waiting game until they die out, and humanity can finally have world peace.

And yet gankers use that sponsor money to get those hulls. If they can't gank 10 exhumers with 100M worth of hulls it means it's unprofitable... Roll

Do you know what profitable even means in this context?

It's not as if the ganker gets the entire cost of the exhumer he ganks...

Literally nothing to do with what I said.
