Sol, accusations of trolling are especially rich coming from you. Did your caps lock key break? I kind of miss your intermittent use of Caps in posts.

And yes, my point stands.


In order for a point to stand, it first has to be valid.

Thanks 'mum', but I'm a grown up and I'll make my own decisions about who I do and don't talk to. If you've got a problem with attention seekers, then why do you do it so much yourself?
Sorry, but you've shown time and time again that you are not actually grown up enough to do so,
so it's better someone tells you not to eat bait all day long. Because you do.

But nooooo .... lol

Well ... fine ... keep talking to him, I bet you two make a good couple anyway.

I'll just block both of you! :D

Gotta beat down these people lest CCP do something silly like they did with the first barge rebalance.

Feel free to block me instead of repeatedly making inane comments in response to my posts and interrupting the flow of the thread. I think it will be better for everyone.

Look, this is real simple. CODE, and their Goon funders, have killed over 100 freighters in the last few weeks. Red Frog significantly raised prices, and pointed to increased ganking as one cause. They also tacked on a massive Uedama surcharge....something is happening here. I don't think anyone is buying the Goon talking points that this is all business as usual.

As far as how many catas it takes to gank a freighter, 10 should be enough, with maybe a cruiser to tank the guns/facpo. Obviously given the significant white knight presence, lack of sp, and desire for extra dps to make sure the gank works CODE uses more than 10. Fact remains that it is real easy to pull this off and throw all of highsec commerce into a tailspin.

The closes to your number is 14 and they were using talos. Fact is that outside of the one month long event in a handfull of systems freighter ganks struggle to hit 3 a day.

You're right, something is happening and I'll tell you what: the fact that they impose a 10m Uedama surcharge means that their couriers still pass through the system all the same as before, complete their contracts and pocket the extra fees at your expense.

We went over your numbers before and they didn't quite hold up to scrutiny. Moreover, last time I checked highsec industry was still intact.

I'd love to be able to see things from your point of view, unfortunately I can't get my head anywhere near my arse let alone shove it that far up.

Does it matter which freighter, they seem to have some slightly different traits ?
