Goons are playing within the rules. Will they be nerfed?

The question becomes; Are the Goons actions falling under the same category as the Privateers and MOO?

As far as I can tell, yes.


Thankfully the rules aren't determined by Captain BlueBeard.

What I would do were I to determine the rules is irrelevant. What is relevant is your evaluation of Eve history and your projections based on said history.

...speaking of EvE history... what great history this is!

MOO... for killing the only Gold Magnate in the game o7

Privateers... for waging the most aggressive and indiscriminate war is the history of EvE o7

Goons... they suck... but for ending the reign of BoB. o7

The nerfs sucked. Privateers were awesome... that was a lot of fun... and piracy w/o MOO is like cake without icing. Maybe now would be a good time to do some mechanics un-nerfing.

I'll tell you what to nerf... jumping/teleporting.

It is positively adorable to see all of the carebears getting into a froth over this while posting with alts. They must be afraid that Goons will put the suicide bullseye on their mains.

This.

I haven't read a single instance of anyone advocating for removing the potential for a gank from any part of Eve. Simply the removal of the head spinning illogic of receiving an insurance payout for intentionally using your ship as a large, expendable piece of ordnance.

you can't read then

Awesome, so you don't actually have a problem with it being removed then, or do you

Consequences are imaginary

I could post several real life events when thousands of people died and show the idea but i chose not to, since many are not prepared to face the truth.

Because Eve is just like real life you see


I also like EVE to have consequences simlar to real life except when it doesn't suit me.

Congratulations. You just showed that fiddling with insurance will not help ganking victims…

…which, by the way, others have already proposed.


You seem to be posting an awful lot about this proposal you know won't make any difference Tippia Lol

The only people in denial are the people who think removing insurance payouts from ships lost to concord will stop them from getting ganked. I don't care if the insurance gets removed...the wailing from pubbies and the reimbursement and bounties from my alliance will more than make up for it.

Yet the suicide gankers have no consequence. Being destroyed yet refunded for your losses is not a consequence of any meaning.


What world have you been living in ya tard? Pollo remembers being blown up, lost standing and modules. This seems like a consequence to Pollo. Ya feel Pollo? ...tard

I would suicide gank, even without insurance, just for threads like this.

Judging by your **** poor combat record... You are the type of tard that likes to ice mine in targeted systems. Pollo recommend you pay the federales their due.
