Isn't it about time suicide ganking was fixed? (Not removed, just made harder).

Definitely agree that people who die to concord should not get an insurance payout upon their death.
That would lessen the incentives to suicide gank people. Bad idea.



I disagree, the purpose for suicide ganking should be to eliminate your opponent, and in rare circumstances you would be able to turn a profit. overall, you should lose a great deal of ISK in the process (depending on target and your ship).

Insurance should be removed for those smacked down by concord.


It would happen almost as much, because yes, your tears are in fact that tasty. Every single time someone gets upset, it justifies every single cost involved in getting those tears to flow, because you must achieve op success at any cost.

Tears(anyone but their own, honestly) just make them want to do it again... Once again, no matter the cost.

Oh, and from experience, a corpies tears because a gank failed, or because you thought being ganked was actually kinda cool when he was going through saltwater withdrawals are almost as tasty as yours, just harder to get(its so easy to make highseccers cry)


Do you actually believe this? I mean seriously what a complete turd you are...tears salt wtf are you on with? Seriously go out get laid do something cos this **** makes you sound like a complete comic book guy.......now taste my tears you nob

Yes, killing miners is kinda boring.

Listening to miners cry on the forums about it is HILARIOUS.

The only way this makes sense is if you're an AFKing highsec pubbie who can count on one hand the number of ships he's lost this week.

(Usually these types run AFK missions and/or AFK bot mine, so they really don't count for anything other than target practice.)

For the rest of us, those who actually play the game, losing ships is a common enough occurrence that insurance is vital. To say nothing about newbies who rely on that insurance to get back into the game without mining or doing L1 missions in a newbie frig to buy a second battleship... every time they die.



It amounts to government funded welfare. As in that case, those that receive the free currency will fight tooth-and-nail to keep the faucet running.

The problem is all these highsec pubbies are so used to never, ever dying and never having to interact with anyone else that the loss of a single ship is a life changing event. Or something.

If I were gonna start a whinge thread about how them terrible Goonies are forcing me to actually play the game instead of engaging in activities they've publicly targetted, while AFK or botting ... I'd definitely do it with a character whose name involves self-abuse.

On the other hand I, too, must admit to feeling some satisfaction when I read the mewling and bawling that these pubbie characters let loose with when the teat is slapped out of their mouths.

Cry harder, please.

EDIT: apparently the entire, proper word for having one off the wrist is filtered. It was odd looking at a string of twelve asterisks.

In light of how easily the goons have been able to clear gallente space of ice miners, I say the time has finally come to fix suicide ganking. Everybody is too afraid to mine gallente ice in hi-sec. What happend to concord? Oh that's right, concord are all but worthless in this.

I can think of two changes, one of which that should have been made a long time ago.

Insurance needs to be voided if the person dies to concord. Being able to gank targets in hi sec at little to no cost is stupid. Gankers being able to take up insurance so they can get paid to throw away their ships by comitting a crime is also stupid.

Concord needs to be improved, they are supposed to deter ganking from occuring in hi-sec, but they fail at this. I suggest that concord response times are greatly improved. It should still be possible to gank a target, but you'll need more firepower and there's a high risk of concord taking you out before you destroy your target.

These changes won't stop people from ganking each other in hi-sec, but anything that makes it harder will make a huge difference.


Easy?
Are you kidding?

The cost of this incursion for the goons are immense.
First it is the bounties that comes from ratting taxes.
Then it is the security loss making their pilots more or less useless in empire.
Then it is the standings loss towards multiple factions of NPC's that can never ever be repaired.
Then it is the mind-numbing logistics of keeping the area stocked with ships.
Then it is the 24/7/365 scouting of all the ICE belts and coordination of warp-ins, baiting Concorde and so on.

Personally I think they should take the entire insurance system and just cancel it. No ISK for losing a ship, ever.
I also think they should fix the kill-right / bounty system so that mad miners can put out contracts on people.


Now, how about buffing the rats in empire?
All belts should spawn at least cruiser size rats. I also believe there should be scrambling rats in all 0.7 and below systems.

Also, please remove ICE from high sec, thank you.

Psst, if he leaves to watch a movie and is still mining, he's using a bot and deserves to lose his ship.

miners are the scum of the eve universe, a blight, and ganking them should be easier

i propose the -5 police thing be eliminated, to stop penalizing those who do the most to improve the game
