Who would be an example of the very few who've succeeded in a war against gankers? And by what did you measure "success"?

I honestly wonder how one guy can be permitted to derail threads over and over again without facing a loss of his posting ability.

Oh....i dont know....maybe it has to do with people here flaming anyone who dares stand up for highsec pve players? Not to mention that i stick to the topic and its the code folks who always derail

Our ISD guys have a sense of humor in their own right if you know how to read between the lines.

I don't know if what veers could be doing is considered winning, but I am a tad bored of reading nothing but code threads, love em or hate em.

The idea is a great one, afk gameplay is bad for the game IMO. The code guys have made their mark on the universe and nobody can deny it.

OP says he wants a War on Gankers then talks about CODE for the rest of his post. The failure to acknowledge the existence of non-CODE ganking entities leads me to the realisation that OP is in fact yet another CODE alt hyping up their alliance.

Any serious war on gankers would need to stop all ganking, not just the CODE ganking.

[edit] ok he mentioned it at the end, but so much CODE this and that in the post I barely noticed that lol

I must admit, I'm really confused about this "war on CODE". It seems, there are way too many champions on the side of anti-CODE movement. First, there's JTClone Ares, well-known rebel leader and "major pain in Code's side" (tm):
http://www.minerbumping.com/2014/12/oceans-zero-part-1.html
http://www.minerbumping.com/2014/12/oceans-zero-part-2.html

Then, there are Marmites, who officially declared their intention to "decode" the CODE by permadeccing it, eventually switching to parasitic war-ally mode to save money.

Then we have all those anti-ganking channel leaders like Jennifer and Thomas creating all those white knight fleets, well-known for their questionable efficiency.

Now what, we have another leader rising? If you ask me, lack of clear leadership, defined target and objective metrics is you current deficiency. Please, do some homework and get back with clearer plan.

Meanwhile, being "decoded" and having such terrifying opponent as JTClone Ares, in which presence CODE, as we all know, "either dock up or flee the system", CODE gathered 1tril ISK kills in December.

If you want to call it a movement, I've had more impressive ones in the latrine.

Sounds to me you are just another carebear hoping to constantly petition gankers to have them permabanned.

Nice plan though as CCP Falcon says, why should CCP (concord) protect you.

This so called war (tearfest) would also be a very very slippery slope to go down, considering the amount of RL threats etc we get from gank victims.

Though more power to you and im sure this time it will work, surely one out 200 attempts has too right?

Did we really need a thread on this?

If you truly think someone is violating the rules or policies of the game then go and file a support ticket.

If you don't like the way someone is talking in local, then file a support ticket. Category will be EULA & Terms of Service. Copy the chat from local into the ticket and submit. Subject could be Violation of Rules of Conduct.

Be aware, this works both ways. So if you were both writing obscenities in chat, the GMs will know. So before you log a ticket, make sue you were not acting against the rules either.

I'll bet money that Codies could easily file more support tickets on this than miners. Miners who just got ganked tend to spurge in local more violently than any Code member I have seen.

For the style of warfare you're plotting, you really need to bone up on your storytelling though. You've got to grab the attention of your audience early, and hang on to it with interesting content. Be approachable, interesting, and personable.

That's the reason James slices chatlogs up into manageable chunks. Ain't nobody got time to read a pastebin chatlog, so you gotta be good at sniffing out the most entertaining bits to present to your audience. Classy humor also helps out a BUNCH.



Beating code is not a function of killboards. They want toake pve risky in highsec. By continuing to engage in high reward low risk highsec pve you win

to make...sorry working long hours and wrote this on my phone on the train....I will expand further.

War in Eve is not similar to a RL war. When Germany invades Poland in September 1939, victory conditions are clearly set. Either Germany will conquer Poland and turn it into a vassal state, or Poland will successfully resist the invasion.

War in Eve is fundamentally different. Dying is of little consequence, there is certainly no negative infinity utility as in real life. All material losses can easily be replaced, and simply docking up and playing on alts is a perfectly viable and consequence free approach. Conquering territory is impossible in highsec, and of little consequence in nullsec. Ditto for killboard statistics.

To wit, wars between code and elite pve players are not decided by killboard statistics. Code is trying to make highsec pve unprofitable to the point where players are forced to move to low/null, while the pve players simply want to continue making isk with minimal exposure to pvp. Victory here will depend on the efficacy of code in making highsec substantially riskier for pve. Killboards and damage are irrelevant, its all about making an impact on broad highsec pve play.

Here code has failed spectacularly...missioning and inucrsioning are as lucrative as ever. Mining has been minimally impacted. And even with a bunch of hauler kills, goods are still broadly declining in price. PvE play is just as easy and profitable as ever, and code keeps on losing day in and day out. No trillion isk of damages can ever change that fact.
