No..... griefing is committing an act for the sole purpose of causing grief.
Ganking is simply attacking someone who wasn't prepared for it.
Maybe you should learn your stuff..

For reference, this could be considered both ganking AND griefing, since the two are in no way exclusive.

Jeez, and I thought Elite players were bad at understanding simple concepts like this...

Run your mouth some more and you'll be griefed again soon.


Yeah be carefull or Saeger will give you a very nasty talking too!

Lol! Awww, now thats just pitiful.
Please tell me that the Code in Eve are more problematic than the poor excuse for pilots in Elite that use the name?
I know nothing of what they are like over here, but over in Elite Dangerous, they're a bit of a laughing stock.
I think people feel a bit sorry for them over there.

You don't need to be careful. You can always come wh with my corp. Codies don't go to wh. Speak your mind, that's what forums are for. If they hound you for your forum words - that would be griefing.

Sorry, noob question: WH?

With regards to speaking your mind, I often find that the ones who vehemently spit visciousness back at you for daring to complain about something that upset you, are often the ones who are most afraid of change or being found out.
They are often the ones engaging in underhanded or inethical practices who worry that bringing those actions to light will in effect cause the spotlight to shine on it or them and then change may happen.
Evolution of mechanics and practices often find these people to be the first left behind in changed circumstance.
And it terrifies them.
So I can understand why they freak out and lash out when anyone challenges the status quo.

I don't really play COD was simply using it as an example to show how dumb your argument is when there is things you could have done to prevent it. like oh i don't know FIT RIGS maybe???

What is clear to me now is common sense is way over your head, so to make it simple for you Sc0rpyon, more tank = less gank
tank means more hit points and resists on your ship
and LESS gank doesn't mean you can never be ganked you are just less likely to be.

This is a link to the definitive guide to navigating the Crime & Punishment forum. Just thank Noragan latter.

Remember just a guide, not rules.

The only thing that is clear from your inane ramblings is the bare-faced arrogance you seem to enjoy throwing about like yesterdays discarded underpants. I can only presume you wouldn't recognise common sense if it stripped naked, painted itself purple and danced the bolero, singing: "Common Sense is here again...!"

Either way you've successfully proved your ineptitude when it comes to adding value to a conversation. Thank you for your unvaluable contribution. It was an important point which needed to be made. But I suggest we leave the rest of this conversation to those members with a brain larger than a grape.

Hmmm. In fact, are you SURE you don't play CoD... the facts imply otherwise...

The guide will advise you to be polite to the natives, esp considering Tainted Demon is in the Best merc alliance in HiSec. I am sure Tainted meant to call you inexperienced and not dumb. But you would be wise to read the guide sooner than latter.

All this venom from a simple vent. Seems highly irrational.

I'm happy to ease back, Netflix and chill....

I pride myself on being polite and appreciative to those who offer a kind / sympathetic word or piece of useful advice.
But rudeness and spite only breeds ill repose and ire.

I apologise to anyone I may have offended, assuming they do the same in return.

It's fairly obvious you are new around here, no need for pleasantries or whitty banter, in fact you are only fueling the fire, if that's your thing proceed, but it doesn't seem to be, so if someone says something you don't like or take offence to, just ignore it, again, replying only fuels the fire.

Sure but when you see the same whiny, ignorant OP over and over again, it gets old real quick. You set the tone and people are replying in kind. If you had come here asking for advice about how to handle the situation better instead of venting your frustrations, the thread would have been different. But you didn't do that, you chose to vent so people are venting back, trolling and/or evaluating whether or not you are a good target.

Concord is there to provide consequences, not protect. There are ways and methods you can employ to your favor to decrease the probability of you getting ganked. If youre interested in those methods, just ask. Otherwise i feel this is some bait thread that will emd up being locked.

So, I left this game about 10 years back or so (with a brief resurgence about 7 years ago) - mostly because of the sheer amount of pointless griefing that was going on.

Then my mate said I should come back and start playing again. I grudgingly agreed to give it another go and see if the game had improved.

So... 3 days in, I've got my mining barge up and running. All good. I hop on over to a *cough* "safe" space Asteroid belt in 0.8 sec. 0.8 sec.... Not some crappy low sec. 0.8....

All is good for a while until suddenly out of nowhere, I notice warning lights and sirens go off.
Within half a secon, my shields and armour are gone and never enough time to hop back to the station.
Boom.

Shortly after that, the police finally decide to turn up and blow the idiot griefer up.
What for? There was really no point for this idiot to do this other than to just cause someone else problems. The fact that he had a 500,000,000 bounty on him says plenty, I guess.

Yep. Turns out Eve hasn't got any better.
Bit of a shame, really.
:-(


I'm sorry for your loss, Sc0rpyon.

This seems like a good time for you to invest in a Mining Permit. They're only 10m Isk and valid for one year. Reach out to me in-game and we'll set you up.
