Yes! Finally some thrasher tears, you have no idea how sick I am of the catalyst pilots lording it over us. Thrasher pilots matter!


Your clone looks like a combination of a cadaver and a plastic frack doll. I find myself sickened, repulsed, and yet somehow oddly attracted all at the same time.

It's the neck twist that creeps me the f*ck out...

Did you have an insta-undock for that station?

On another note... I wonder if I should be building thrashers and small artillery now.

Just sitting off of most, sometimes every gate of every highsec system I jump into? Do gankers use Thrashers? What does CODE. use?

I was under the impression that Thrashers are preferred at gates because they tank against the gate guns better than Catalysts, giving you fractionally more time. Not that you need much time against a shuttle or rookie ship.

True/False?

For ganking shuttle and pods, you just pick it for the Alpha dmg.

Herzog, good link, there is one AG who was doing what Aaaarg is referring to and having fun, killing pods and shuttles is what? It is fun obviously and he is having fun and yet we could sit there and say pod killing dismissively like he just did. Aaaaarg cared enough to gank him at least once, maybe more.

And should we mention the Griffins that actually did save a few pods and stuff and the fact that when people did that Aaaarg went and ganked some miners instead. Was funny to see.

I did a stint of remote seebo for one Griffin a week or so back and we prevented 2 out of 8 gank attempts which was not bad, Aaaarg even complemented that Griffin for being fast....

And what Aaarg calls kmwhoring for me is CONCORD racing, something really hard to do, except around gates of course..., but then that would be racing CONCORD, the gate guns and fac police which is very difficult to do, the objective is to have none of them on the kill. People should try it...

When the going gets tough the Gankers get their CSM rep to change mechanics in their favour.

Careful Drac. You might make AG look like PVP and CODE does not want PVP. That'll ruin their game.

Yeah, we saw how quickly they got things changed when they had to deal with fast small ships that are difficult to stop didn't we..., buff EHP was the answer... who would have thunk that !!!! ShockedRoll

A while ago I caught mention on Reddit of some "anti ganking" meeting subject with the CSM but I don't recall it actually including anybody I know from AG. Meaning it was probably all CODE giving their friends a list of buffs they wanted.

I think that out of AG will rise a CSM candidate eventually and the CODies will cry just at the thought of an AG CSM candidate. They'll cry only because their existence is based on crying. An AG CSM is unlikely to change anything except maybe have -10s drop pirate tags or something.
(Or if it were up to me™ highsec stations stop letting -5 or lower dock Twisted )

I would have told CCP just how disastrous that EHP buff to freighters was, because we had some really good emergent gameplay coming in with AG players actually ganking stuff and CODE and the Goons having to deal with small fast ships to protect their loot and CCP destroyed that emergent gameplay without any thought on their actions.

It is good to see that CCP are paying attention to AG, they should speak to Thomas au Chasteaux about this subject.

lol I feel like I have missed some posts all I said was "yes please" to someone thinking about building thrashers.

so where did all this come from, and of course killing pods is fun you cant beat it especially when shiny implants pop out .
This person I ganked was he afk on the gates of Madirmilire, that never ends well as I gank everyone, often they explode :).

Of course I ganked some miners unless you haven't noticed that is what we do and we do it a lot.

I don't believe I have ever seen you in local as far as I know so for you to have attempted to stop me is unlikely :)

km whoring /concord racing call it what you will if its fun do it and enjoy the Content we provide

I don't care about the gank attempt. I do care about the insta-locking. I have max targeting skills but I have never been able to get anything close to insta-lock, especially using big guns. So I don't know why he gets to insta-lock. I mean literally as soon as I came out of station and started aligning to gate, he hit me. It was less than 1 second lock and hit time.



Well, if you use an insta undock bookmark he won't be able to instalock you.... as you will be protected by undock immortality and go into warp immidiately. Aligning will be the death of you, why would you do that???
