EVE General Discussion

Hilarious.

Not that you wanna gank gankers... that's great,
but concentrating on those worth it makes more sense.

Frigates at gates, scanning ships or the Tornados next to them,
or their haulers.

Or interrupt the squads of catalysts that try to gank freighters,
using long range high rof turrets.

Your argument about the miners is invalid. If the morons who can't tank their ships would leave,
it'd not only make the proper miners (those who do) happier, but if prices rose,
others would create mining alts and jump in.

Then we'd see a drop of miners being ganked,
because more mining people then actually knew how to play
and don't afk or sit around in space without tank.

I don't think that you understand that without those members of the community sacrificing their ships and security status, there wouldn't be as many opportunities for those miners and industrialists to sell replacement goods to those that have been affected.

Lets Gank the Ganker that is Ganking... While Concord Ganks them.

Thank you Abyss, the only one that has posted constructive and pertinent feed back. It reminds me why I rarely post stuff on here

I have seen an upsurge of douchegankery , I mean skilled pvp, in teosenude and gelfiven, they are pretty lazy about it as well, might get some easy kills there.

You can pop them on gates or in the ice belts.

I hear bombers are the best anti-gank. As they land on the miners you bomb them and kill them before they kill the miners.

What would all the miners do with all the ore and minerals if nothing blew up?

If the Miners actually tank their ****, then they won't explode as easily...

Then I'd need a new hobby in EVE...

The real question you're facing is whether or not you've got the reflexes. Gankers are used to rapid response, and they know where their targets are. You won't know when they're coming, or who their target is, so you're going to need superior reflexes and good intelligence. And a lot of patience. If you try to pre-empt them, you give gankers kill rights on you - Hilarity *will* ensue. You may even get Concordokken yourself, which is a bit humiliating (have done that my own self; I know whereof I speak). If you wait until they're flashy, you've got bare seconds in which to react before concord shows up to spoil your fun.

The good news is that a properly-fit Insta-locking boat with long-range weapons - even a frigate - can pop a gankalyst with ease. *If* you get there before Concordokken happens. Maybe you can try to pop their pods - If you're fast enough, and if they're slow enough or dumb enough to give you a chance to engage or scan them down. Don't count on it.

We understand that. Which is why we are helping to rid Eve of bots and pilots who wish they were bots. So your minerals will be worth more. The primary way we have to distinguish between bots and active pilots is permits. You can send me your 10mil isk for a one year permit if you like.

You can choose to side with the rebels, an unfortunate decision, but one many make ... for a time. If so I think the best method is to sit in the belt/anom near some miners in whatever ship you have for running L4s or incursions waiting for some gankers to come along to attack the miners. Then you get 'em instead!
