CONCORD does not protect... it only punishes. Players are allowed to aggro anyone, anywhere... as long as they are willing to pay the price.

as someone who has participated in the above activity there are things you can do to mitigate the danger.

1. Don't fit deadspace/faction reppers to your ship. 99% of targets are picked by an alt who scans targets to select the highest return of isk.

2. Actually tank your ship with atleast some buffers and resists. You would be supprised to find how many mining ships have nothing in the mids. This requires fewer gankers to make the hit.

3. Don't, for the love of all the Minmatar god's go afk. There is a warning displayed when criminals jump into system if you see it and start moving to warp (you should already be aligned) your survivability goes up. Just he other night my alliance ganked 2 barges that were afk, right next to each other. They missed the first pod on the first gank but got while killing the second barge. It just sat there and waited to die cause the owner walked away from his computer.

4. CONCORD are just like RL police. They rarely make it on time to stop a crime. They just get to punish the criminal after the fact. Just be glad they don't have a response time of 23 minutes like most in the U.S.

5. Don't be deluded into thinking High Security systems are Totally Safe Security systems. Like is written in many many forums and EVE documentation EVE is ment to be a harsh, cold environment where the learning curve is steep. Every time you log in there is a chance of danger be it from suicide ganks, scams, pirates and any other evil things people dream up.

Personally when I was mining (recovering addict taking it one day at a time) I always had my hulks up close to the orca with a coupla gank catalysts of my own in the bay. Since the hulks and orca were all fully tanked it allowed me to swap out and return the favour while I waited for concord to show up.

Scammers are currently selling killrights on this toon for up to 5mil, if you have paid for this service demand your money back at once.

Killing me should be for free.

I totally feel your pain bro.
It is not fair these, "people" are allowed to just come in and blow us up when we just want to be left alone shooting rocks.
CONCORD has failed to protect us!

I feel we peaceful sorts need to create an eve equivalent of a "Neighbourhood Watch", to hunt down and protect others from roughians and scallywags so that they do not come to the same ends as you and your friend have.

Your story brought a tear to my eye, fly safe!

as a miner, i should be sympathetic.

however, i am not because you decided to butcher the english language. i'm glad you got ganked.

I don't know about that solstice project weirdo (oversized ego for a video game). I gank hulks on this toon...its very easy and brings lots of tears...and a kill right to have fun with. Hulks are high sec pinatas...they drop candy.
Now, enter my pod killer alt...sir smokesabunch. In the last couple months I have casually caused over 25 billion in lost isk. Its satisfying to know you can fit a 2 mill destroyer and take billions from someone. You can blame whoever's idea it was to add implants to kill mails.
Because honestly...I don't mind spending isk to cause tears and destabilization. Rage is a powerful tool.

Killing your ships and pods since 2008. Killboards don't lie, Don't get mad, get better.

Miners always threaten to take up honorable highsec PvP, but they never actually do it.

As long as you continue to AFK mine with a default overview, and ignore people with criminal reps that enter the system, you will continue to lose Hulks.

Shooting at honorable gankers after CONCORD has shut their ships down will not change this.

That's what carebears do.

They spit hate and rage and display what kind of persons they are,
judging about us as if *we* were the bad guys.

Talk all big all day, but as soon as you give them a taste of reality,
they show what they are truly made of.

We can thank CCP for having them, because CCP knows we need them as targets.

OMG you got popped in a Hulk, in Hi sec Shocked
Sorry that's as far as I got before I started to giggle.

But seriously, Jay this is a PvP game regardless of how you play or what you do.


Side Note: - don't get upset at being called a "carebear" as every player in this game has / is or was, they may not any more but they were.
