Wait till they get bored. Really the only thing you can do.

Make an alt on the same account that only has enough skills to fly a cheap-o frigate. When this happens log him on and fly him to the system, lead them on a chase, log that out and go back to the hauler when they are away from the station and go for it. It may not work everytime but other than sitting there waiting it's something to try.

Depends entirely on how competent those wanting to tackle you are.

If they're very good, doesn't matter what ship or mods you've got fitted, they'll have you tackled & popped before you know what is going on! Luckily for you though, these types of camps are extremely rare as most people will fail miserably when trying to pull it off Lol

Best bit of advice though is use a travel fit - that normally means fitting for super fast align / warp times on frigate size ships. Anything bigger, then the cloak / MWD / uncloak / warp trick will work 90% of the time.

Again, the more incompetent the gate camp, the more chance you'll have of getting away Twisted

Not fired a shot in anger since 2011.... Trigger finger is starting to get somewhat itchy.......

Log off. Do something else. Wait till they get bored and move on. Log back in and fly out.

But best solution. Dont get into such a situation....

What helps is put the guys on a watchlist of an alt you have and play around with that character and watch them log off.

Do not warp from gate to gate, and you should be absolutely fine.

When you jump into a system, and the start gate is clear, look at your overview. Do you see a planet that has the same distance in AU as the stargate? Warp to the planet and an arbitrary range, and use your directional scanner to scan the gate. If it is clear, warp to it and jump through. If you don't see a planet and a stargate with the same distance in AU, warp to a planet, anyone to get off the gate, and plan to warp to the planet closest to the stargate. Sometimes you won't find any planet in scan range, and you'll have to try your luck.

Jumping into the system should then be the only point of danger. You don't know what is on the other side. One way to minimise the risk is to use a noob alt in a rookie ship or a shuttle to jump in ahead of you. But then you would need two accounts.
