For 3.5 trillion profit reaped from those such as the op, I can see how lucrative it must be for a entire corp to demean itself in such a way. If the defending party wasent so insufferable, then i could partially frown upon acts like that.

lol, true.

That thread has something almost philosophical.

There's one side that always claims that Jump freightors or cloaky haulers can never be caught (or that dastardly cloaky Tengu and it's interdiction nullifier) and should be removed or nerved so much they could as well be removed and then there's the other side that claims all freighters are to easy to gank and therefore PVP should be removed entirely.

It's hilarious, really. Lol

Stupidity should be a bannable offense.

Fighting back is more fun than not.

Well to be fair a blockade runner is damn near impossible to catch in high sec if you do it right.

Oh theres no issue, although I still don't know why CCP made them unscannable. We have plenty of bads who transport billions in untanked iterons.

Being able to kill freighters and other high value targets in high sec in seconds, with a bunch of low skilled alts for giggles devalues EvE. Why put in effort and pay 50 - 500 mill wardecs to hunt targets, or pirate in low or null and hunt targets and in turn be hunted when you can just sit safely and immune in high ganking multi billion isk freighters / jump freighters risk free.


Oh I seeee


It should be easy for one group of players and not another


Got it

Should be easy for no one.

receipe to avoid disaster, needs to be same corp

Condor (race to flavor)
High:
what ever
med:
1mn mwd
web II x 2
cap reg
low:
nanofiber

after gate.
commence align/warp freighter
order frigate to orbit 2.5, target freighter, activate mwd to close the distance to freighter, under 10km, both webs.
freighter insta-warp.
shut the gate, the horse has bolted.

by the time the slow warp freighter reaches the next gate, the companion frigate's 60 second global has expired.

repeat as required.

Eve was a harsh universe untill the last miner barge HP buff, now it's just a world of war crack clone. The miner buff was an IQ dumb down enougth. Eve would trully die if they buffed freighter HP or made ganking any harder.

That ship is a niche, non combat ship. It cannot defend itself. What you are asking for is immunity from the actions of others because you have chosen to vastly increase risks to yourself through stupidity. That will never, ever happen.

So... we should remove the pricetag from wardecs? Pirate

Im making an observation nothing more. Dont fly indy ships.

And no the pricetag for ganking should be increased in terms of risk / cost.

Its much harder to set up a freighter gank than to make a freighter safe and requires at least 17 more people for the gank.

That really is a wee bit strange, I never understood why they did that.

I could have understood it if they had turned it into some kinde of Scan strength versus Scan shield systems mechanic, but that completely unscannable thingy is just strange...

Thing is, how do you increase the risk/cost of ganking?

You can't just make catalysts more expensive. They'd just to move to something else. They already removed insurance payouts if you get killed by CONCORD.

They have already been making it harder and more expensive for years. Nerf after nerf.

But apparently it's never enough. It's always one more little bit here, one more little bit there. The kind of people who whine about getting ganked are the people who really do want to have immunity. Those people are wrong, and whether they know it or not, those people are bad for the game.

That is why people jump down their throats on the forums, that is why people laugh at them for their losses. So yeah, to hell with those people.

Well this is incredible because it's only a couple of weeks since I was told that no one loses JFs ever
