14 freighters/jf suicide ganked in empire last 24h by just handful of ships in every gank. 10 bc do it easily or 20 destroyers... this thing is just escalating by day. ccp time to do something about easiness and huge profit and neglible risk suicideganking these big ships offers.

14 Ships we thought were safe AFK solo easymode were killed by a bunch of people working together...

CCP help!

Edit: What do you want them to do? As long as you can shoot people in Hi-Sec there will always be enough firepower.

It's kinda difficult when you guys go even after 981k m3 of trit...

I know there isn't enough trit in null to build titans but geez...

It would be a mistake to reward stupidity by beefing up freighters.

Have you ever considered that while your own freighters would become safer so would the freighters of the alliance responsible for this.

And they own a hell of a lot more freighters than you do. It would just make their logistics safer.

Any spelling, grammatical and punctuation errors are because frankly, I don't care!!

A Charon full of Trit

You see that CCP?

Trit.

Now we aren't allowed to haul trit in High Sec because other players say so.

Your game is being griefed off the map. Ball is in your court.

By that logic if someone pops 20 empty shuttles you are no longer able to fly empty shuttles through Hi Sec.

Do you think players should be allowed to gank shuttles, freighters and other ships in Hi Sec?

I haul 6 Charons of Trit a week (I actually own 6 Charons). I've not lost one yet.

My most recent haulage was 12 billion ISK of BPO. I used a scout. [I was too lazy to make multiple trips.]

And by your logic there will always be an excuse.
Parse the quote. The ball is in CCP's court, not mine. Maybe they agree with you. It's their Job. I just play.

I'm curious. Suppose all the trit and logistics get through. What then? NC dot make fleets? -A- make fleets?

You might have to fight them.
In PvP.

Better keep killing those freighters.

You can scout yourself, web yourself, and fly safer loads. Ball has actually been in your court the entire time.

I've heard it all before.

Funny thing though, Goons had their freighter full of Zydrine reimbursed when someone popped it in low.

So much for webs, fleet, not hauling more than this and that amount.

I don't forget things like that.

What is your excuse for not wanting ganking?

Do you want 100% safe and secure High Security Space where you can not be shot at ever?

You make it sound like alliance reimbursed means no one lost money. The pilot did something stupid, things were destroyed someone lost that money.

Look, we all knew that this would be the next thing they're going to whine about. Just like we all know that CCP is going to "address" it.

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:

You now speak for CCP and when they take action against the player base?
Is there something I should know about your account?

While I don't like the guy he is right, accusing GM's of doing something you have no proof of is a no no.

Play EvE how you want to play it and do not let others dictate how you play. Evolve your playstyle to protect yourself from others! Even in "PVE", "PVP" is there, lurking in the shadows.

amahgahd my stuff is exploding!



please CCP, add a button on the militia pilots UI that lights up every time someone does something naughty within the same system or region, and let them warp to the location of the evildoer with a push of that button with kill-rights included.

make the militia system a "tour" based system, instead of a permanent commitment... "one week playing cop, then back to the hell hole that spawned you" maybe trow in a 1% LP discount staking for every week you stay on the militia being active.

oh and remove Concord while you are at it.






heh, we can dream, cant we?

People in general are to rich due to big inflation in EvE, in most cases people who loses freighters dont care about own ships and high amount of meny goods inside cargo ( no scouts, afk mode , silly - lazy thinking while they haul expensive stuf)

They come here to forum and whine when bad thing happens, but here is big irony, EvE general discussion is full of warrnings and topic about kamikaze !

However some people got bad luck... Also some - few of people atack freigters just for lulz but life is brutal be smarter than other. Few years ago i use freigter only on occasion, and quess what, i never lose it, also i never haul more than 300mil isk while i flying alone.

Even these days In some cases i do multiple trips with spliting goods, it better than hauling all thing at once, personaly i care even i haul 30 mil isk or less , because i have to work hard and i respect my work and money.

Also im ex miner, long time ago i spent a lot time on asterod belts i never die to kamikaze, even got some pvp on other character while using hulk vs thiefs, also during my mining profesion i survive few kamikaze atacks (at hull) but i was not afk got proper fit and skills, and again never afk, be smart - pay atention everwhere on everything.


Stop hauling stuf worth a lot isk, most players die to suicide atemps at own wish.

Ps. Remember after mining barges buf, some people swich to freigters... just becuse is easy to destroy, small buf for freigters would be nice, but come on, even buf cant protect silly pilots.

EvE isn't game, its style of living.
