In an effort to join those dedicated to being annoying on the forums when the forums are annoying to us, I hereby inform the universe that I got a "we were ganked" message. That is all.

Congratulations. As recognition of your new status in the EVE Online forum community, I hereby promote you to Idiot First Class. You may pick up your insignia from the nearest dollar general. Good day, sir.

I usually just ctrl-c ctrl-v and let it slide, but I think it's about time CCP actually did something about their sh!tty forums. It's been long enough for them to not get a pre-packaged, out of the box stable and secure. Seriously, CCP's webdevs suck so very very hard.

edit: and more people have been posting "we were ganked" threads, so I decided it's my turn to jump on the bandwagon

ganked again.

If eeryone who got a we were ganked message posted in the same thread ONLY when ganked, I'm pretty sure we'd have the biggest EVE threadnaught ever.

Is it called irony when you get ganked reading a "gank" thread?Roll

Been ganked twice reading this thread (so far; I look forward to more gankings (and know I won't be disappointed))

If only they included the original URL appended to the error URL - that way, I can just hit refresh to have another go, instead of backwards and forwards.

Also a pain if I put a thread into a new tab (in Firefox), and that tab gets ganked a while later - there's no history for it to go back to, so I lose that thread forever!

I wonder why this happens so frequently to some people. I browse the forums regularly in idle time and if I needed more than two hands to count the number of times it has happened I'd be worried about my ability to count.

Then and again, some people are absolute forum whores and when you're making @LargeNumberOfPosts a day the odds of getting it just increases Lol

Bam! Went afk a few hours, came back and ganked!

Forums suck, webdevs is worst devs, et cetera.

Same here. I rarely ever get ganked. Only has happened a handful of times since the new forums came out.
