I want bumpers to pay for hiding in NPC corps.


I think NPC corps should reduce your speed by 50%. That'll teach them.

If you are going to start a troll thread at least make it entertaining.

You got a 1 because someone took the bait.

If you are going to fly a freighter in Hi-Sec, then be at the keyboard and fly with an escort. By having other ships flying with you, then it makes it harder for the bumpers. And gives you a better chance of surviving an encounter with bumpers and gankers.

AG can't protect everyone and surely can't protect anyone who is AFK flying.

It doesn't go far enough tbh. 75% reduction in speed and 75% reduction in EHP. Yea, let's teach those mothers. Twisted

If bumpers have to "pay", by means of a speed nerf, to "hide" in NPC corps then miners and haulers should have to "pay" by having their respective yield and cargo capacity reduced by the same amount to "hide" in NPC corps.

What's good for the goose and all that.

I like this idea. It would be even better with a 50% increase to npc corp taxes as well, to pay for those new mechanics and stuff.

Oooh I like that.

I was also thinking there should be a timer on everyone in NPC corps. This timer adds 1 minute waiting time for docking and jumping. Big smile

NPC corp should add a 1 minute timer to aligning and manual piloting so bumping is harder!!


I'm sick of bumpers hiding in npc corps where i cant wardec them its abusing the game mechanics


maybe npc corps should prevent you from using mwd that'd stop em

Yea I like that too.

So what do we have.


  • 75% reduction in speed.
  • 75% reduction in EHP.
  • 50% increase in taxes.
  • 1 minute timer for jumping, warping, docking and manual manoeuvring.
  • And last but not least, No access to a MWD.


Yea, that would definitely show those mothers.

If they get suspect flags while flying anything larger than a cruiser that would teach those bumpers and fix the problem where you can't wardec them.

The bumping mechanics in eve make no sense other than a stupid way to grief other players.

Personally I would prefer some sort of collison mechanic which would not be limited just to ships but all structures/rocks in eve but I would guess that might cause too much crying from the gankers and bumpers.

I'm pretty sure that you can kill bumpers the same as you can kill anyone else, simply turn the safety off and press F1.

The problem is that you don't want to accept the consequences, which makes you the coward.

I seriously doubt the majority of the crying would come from gankers and bumpers, they'd just deal with it and adapt their tactics to take advantage of it; mission runners, haulers and miners on the other hand...

I've just had an interesting Email conversation with some Nigerian Business men. Nice chaps really, they just needed some help with moving some money over here and I thought I could help.

Anyway whilst we were talking, I happened to mention this issue and we brain stormed it for a while. I think we may have arrived at the perfect solution.

It's called the 'He looked at me funny' module.

It can only be used by people in a player corp and has a high slot fitting.
It has 1 PG and 1 CPU requirement.
When activated, you gain 100% capacitor regen plus 100% more damage when applied to anyone in an NPC corp.

It works like this.

If you suspect someone close to you who is in an NPC corp and you think they may be eyeing you up, you can activate the module.
It them freezes the movement of ALL NPC corp ships nearby, rendering them unusable for 1 minute.
You also get to remove a percentage of ISK from their wallet, as a sort of help tax. (Not my idea but thought I'd include it)

I think it's balanced and in no way OP. Cool

You mean cheering? What a glorious age of destruction you would bring in if collisions caused damage. Carebears expoding their missioning or mining ship by accidently ramming it into a structure, gank Macks smashing into frigates and expoding them without a flag, suicide Stabbers taking out mission runners deep in dead space pockets.

It would be excellent.
