Sigh. You're kind of missing the point. I'm saying that plenty of the "fights" in low/null are basically just one sided, low-risk ganks the same as what happens in highsec, yet when it's done in low/null you accept it, but when it's done in high you start ranting about them being "cowards" or whatever other crap to make yourself feel superior.

Why do so many people think it is fine to gank fairly weak and helpless miners or ratters in low/null, but not in highsec?

Stop trying to justify yourself. You're lily-livered, we get it.

And I expect most people don't think it's fine to gank weak and helpless miners. It's just griefing. Most people would agree consensual PVP in Low/Null is fine, but that's not the same thing is it?

I felt insulted and was about to say "This will be dealt with". Then i watched your lossboard and left satisfied. Someone else allready took care about your corp. Is it possible that your rant is fueled by butthurtness?

Btw, just because i think you might want to be interrested in bulk-charon-deals: WTS Charons.

So you think non-consensual PVP in low/null is griefing too?

According to the mentally of some here they confirm that i am really afraid of Null.. Low... and WH.

Even though my start in EVE was low/null.

I hated the many vs many although it really becomes many vs 1 gameplay. The constant traveling to find 1 target willing to undock only to warp in triage carriers to support his 1 battleship.

People in Highsec... Targets that make me ISK. I don't need to mine/rat to make ISK... Never.

Remove wars from Highsec I only see one thing happening, more people moving into highsec to stay safe. Say what you like, I know the majority of null/low guys are just as afraid of loosing his ship as the person in highsec. Which is why they all dock up the second a neut enters system. Yes you get your few that actually undock and go on the chase but 90% won't unless there is not some sort of fleet going with support.

EDIT: I agree with my mate StoneCold... John Ratcliffe needs to be dealt with and will be... soon.tm

Well when you finish giving your 'mate' a reach around, come find us in Poinen. There's 3 of us, so bring equal numbers if you're not a clown shoes. Anytime after 2030 BST.

I'm unsure if you know kane ... if you did you'd know he is not one shy of bringing equal or lower numbers.Let's just say he knows the pvp game better then most.

That said it is funny kane that this ''needs to be dealt with'' because ''oh my somoene talked bad about high sec gankers/greifers'' on the public forums .

This ain't high school son ....

I know it just seemed like the right thing to say due to the mentally in this thread.

I don't know him and I don't care what his reputation is. I'm not scared of a fight and I'm not scared of losing ships.

A Retriever... no. That is why you use a Procurer.


You can make them unprofitable to gank in 0.7 space and up.

Everyone was a noob once. however, noobs don’t fly round in 3.8 billion isk mission Ravens, only older players can afford that.

You got smacked because you weren’t paying attention and lost a bling boat, so you thought you’d come here and throw ad hominem attacks at members of the forum. All you are doing is proving the OP correct.

Oh, and before you start, no I don’t gank in high sec. Never have. However that does not mean I don’t think it’s a perfectly viable pastime for those who chose to engage in it.

Newbies don't fly around in pimped out 3 billion isk mission running ships.

Baddies do that.
