Show me a prove that "many do not" - as repairing their status is cheap and ez;

I just pulled the last 2500 ganks by CODE.

Total ganks analysed: 2543
Total CODE. members involved: 112

% of CODE. members as outlaw when ganking: 78.6% (88 of 112)
% of CODE. members not outlaw when ganking: 21.4%

% of outlaw ganks: 93.7% (2382 of 2543)
% of not outlaw ganks: 6.3% (161 of 2543)

The CODE. attackers on gank killmails are outlaw 93.7% of the time.

You can repeat the analysis yourself if you like. Here's the data (A total of about 4000 killmails as not all CODE. kills are ganks)::
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B1nitFwBo5aARjRfZTlmd3dETUk

This result is consistent across months of checking data. >90% of CODE. attackers that appear on killmails are outlaw.

CODE. of course aren't the only gankers in existence, just the most active.

You're wrong.

This has been explained by CCP staff and by members of the CSM in the past. You're case is improved by a solid, objective argument, supported with evidence.

Just like us, CCP staff don't want to have to go looking for evidence to support every claim here.

In fact, in relation to ganking they have gone and looked for evidence to support it being a problem and concluded that it is not a problem.

So, good luck with your thread. At least it has contained you here pretty much. That's a win for the rest of the forum.

I envy them.


Hey.... your still here. I thought you figured out I was trolling you or something. 9/10 remember. Like I said... your not going anywhere.

"At least it has contained you here pretty much. That's a win for the rest of the forum."

I admit I could be wrong, you might not be a troll. But if you're not, God damn you're stupid.

Im a solo hero.... My alt Erika Einstein already has a fair amount of Tornado ganks under her belt. If you don't believe me, just check zkill.
Not what I asked for, yet again you're evading the fact that you have failed to provide any evidence whatsoever to support your claim that suicide ganking is too easy and has no consequences.

I wrote:
You made your claim first, show us a video of you organising the logistics, coordination and finding enough people to gank a freighter, and then executing the plan.
Here's the part you edited out in your attempt to evade my request for evidence. While my request for a video may seem onerous it's the standard of proof that you asked for from Scipio.


see initial posts....
I have, there appears to be a distinct lack of anything that isn't your opinion.

Is refer back to my other posts all that you have left? Not that you had much to begin with.

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

It's a containment thread. ISDs have explained before that they leave threads open well beyond their usefulness at times, because discussion here is at least contained to here and doesn't spill over to other areas of the forum.

Leaving idiotic idea threads open is ultimately good for the rest of the threads and everyone not interested in certain issues.


Not really, I've already commented on other threads about this issue whenever it relates. I link it to social media as well.

See under your avatar, your name is a link. It opens a drop down list that lets you check your post history.

I stopped at the end of page 15, but not a single post out of this thread. Your last >300 posts in the forum have been in this thread.

That's a pretty good example of containment.

Once again, the evidence available actually shows you are wrong.

Edit: There's only 2 additional pages to your post history past that and not a single post on this issue elsewhere. Lol. Foiled again.

"Fake evidence"?

Not only that but from the video we see he got 2 tornadoes, that alone could be enough for foil a specific gank. Yes, they may very well reship and come back, but the freighter they did have in mind of ganking may very well be in a 0.8 or even a 0.9 system. That is, you don't have to kill them all, just enough so that their DPS drops low enough to prevent the gank.

You can also try to scan these guys down too ya know. Scan them down, warp into the middle of them, scram some release drones and start shooting.

But nooo. That isn't good enough.

Anyone getting the impression these guys are just fecking lazy as Hell?


Those who operate out of jita v do not gank in tornados like this. These tornados are not the ones who are ignoring faction police mechanics. They are keeping their security status in check to continue their ganks in highsec. The problem is the 30-40 man fleet running out of jita V (goons, karmafleet, gimme da loot, etc) that stay invulnerable in warp until the target is reached (the one being bumped and not able to get away). Then within a few seconds of attacking the freighter is wrecked. There is not much you can do to prevent the freighter loss unless a small AG fleet criminally ganks the bumper before the squad arrives. This logic is useless though because now AG takes security status hits and is viewed as a criminal without even making any profit. That's why no one cares to gank the bumper. The tornado guy's are ganking the the way it should be done (managing security status). The fleet gankers are the ones abusing system mechanics.


So you have a boner for Goons, that makes you even more ridiculous. Changing game mechanics because a specific alliance is using them is lame beyond belief. Either argue the merits or STFU. Stop it with the Grr Goons nonsense it just makes you look stupid.

Edit: BTW, if he were doing it with a talos and shooting catalysts or coercers he'd likely be one shotting them and could probably burn through more than he did. Even by his own admission he wasted time targeting pods. Skip that step and you'll likely kill quite a few destroyers.

Serioulsy, can you just stop whining and complaining and go out there and find a way to shoot them?

The OP doesn't have merit based on anything factual posted, because nothing factual has been posted. It's all just opinion.

Opinions are fine, but time and time again, some evidence to support what you are saying has been requested and ignored, time and time again, in favour of instead calling people trolls and repeating already stated opinions.

Let's start with some evidence and work from there.

So, for example, the thesis of your OP is:

Given that, CONCORD (edit: Faction Police) and the security status are completely useless against repeat offenders (mainly -5.0 and lower) who fleet gank every 15min - 24hours a day. Yeah, im talking about those staged up in Jita V - Moon 17 station. Ganking as a profession and source of income should come with the requirement of having to manage and repair your security status based on the system that you are ganking in.

Well, it's actually not a given at all. Where is the evidence that supports what you are claiming is a given?

Your next claim in the OP is:

To prevent alpha clones from continually being rolled and used as disposable gank toons, I propose that only omega pilots be allowed to set their safety to red, while alpha clones can only set their safety to yellow at most.

Show us that this is occuring. Where is the evidence of characters being created, used for a short period to gank, then biomassed or just abandoned and new ones rolled.

Where is the evidence that this is occurring and if you have the evidence, have you reported that via a support ticket?


The OP is, in a word, a liar.

1. Nobody ganks every 15 minutes for 24 hours a day. An organization might, but an organization is not a player, drawing an equivalence there is incredibly dishonest.

2. People with a low sec status are effectively locked out of cruisers and above. Get in a cruisers and chances are the FacPo or players will catch you and kill you.

3. To become a criminal you pretty much have to build up a list of kill rights, which anyone can activate so long as they pay the ISK, and if you want your killer to be killed sooner vs. later, set the kill right to "free to all" vs. trying to get 100 million ISK.

So clearly there are consequences to having a low sec status. The OPs claim there is not one is just a blatant lie to further his own personal agenda.

I know, but funnily enough he won't....maybe he can't.

If he, or anyone else, pulled the data I'd look at it. I'd pop it into SAS and start turning the data this way, that way, and so forth. Looking to see if indeed there is a problem.

But instead all he does is make shrill posts about Kusion have 9.6 trillion ISK in kills. As if that proves his point.

1. Jita V - Moon 17 Station - KarmaFleet Zkill
2. Great - This pushes people that refuse to manage their security status into null so that they dont have too. More null content. Something that CCP wants.
3.You can activate the low isk killrights yourself to clear them. People wont pay 500mil to activate a killright on you when you are in a destroyer.
