Crime & Punishment

one simple bug that last 2 months, ganker cry about how CPP make it hard for them

it is like if they forget how to gank before bug exist...

sometime it is emergent game play, sometime it is unintended issue.

it is same idea as some players use ESS as trespasser detection system for Wormhole. But CPP state they will fix it...

The ways to gank others in highsec are getting less and less, meanwhile CCP appear to be pandering to the ignorant, the lazy and the AFK, primarily because those groups of people keep whining to CCP when their stuff goes boom. They won't rest until highsec becomes the equivalent of a kids playground with no sharp edges or pointy objects, because they refuse to adapt to the dangers present.

Burn Apanake looks to be a protest by highsec gankers against the constant nerfing of their chosen playstyle and the gentrification of highsec. TBH I can't fault them for organising it, they've seen their playstyle getting nerfed time and time again over the years, while constantly adapting to the new constraints on what they do, unlike other groups who just whinge.

Of course he's a douche, he's a Goon. He's also absolutely right.

See if you can cobble together some like minded wh scanners. It might lead to some fun.

In my mind, it's part protest, part riot, and part celebration of a mechanic that - for a couple of weeks - encouraged mission runners to protect each other rather than relying upon CONCORD for protection.

I hope a great time is had by all. Maybe even some of the prey - I know my first PVP ship loss woke me up to what EVE could be.

And you aaaaaaare?

Oh yeah. Nobody of importance.

I have to respectfully disagree.

Bugs are not supposed to be in-game. Burn Jita was against micro-transactions. I would have taken part in that if I could have gotten into Jita without my client crashing from overload.

This however is a protest over CCP's doing their job and dealing a bug. As for other comments that there are less and less ways to gank, I presume you refer to the 'impersonation' clause added to the TOS/EULA that stops you impersonating other players for the purpose of scamming.

Put simply, no matter how much you whine or organize 'burn' events, CCP is not going to purposely break a mechanic just to make non-concord ganking easier.

Who cares? You are still perfectly capable of going out and blowing the crap out of any pilot you want or even challenging them to a duel should the fancy take you.

If its too lard to shoot people in high sec, why not visit some of the 'island' low secs (low sec systems surrounded by high sec) as some can be just as active as high sec...with the added bonus that you blow up the poor sods without worrying about CONCORD.

Wrong answer for zero points. Burn Jita was a Goonswarm initiative to collect as many tears as possible in as short a time as possible, which coincided with with the removal of Mittens ban for being a drunken fool at fanfest, IIRC it was organised prior to him being banned.

The Jita riots were about microtransactions and happened in 2011.

Scamming via impersonating others is nothing to do with ganking, one removes money from the greedy and the foolish, the other removes ships via explosions. The removal of ways to gank refers to the changes to can flipping and all of the other little paper-cuts that are slowly turning highsec into a paradise for the uninformed.

You're one of those e-honour people aren't you?

Hell no, I once took an idiot for a couple of billion isk. I;m just saying don;t whine just cause a bug/exploit you used to bypass CONCORD was removed. It coulda been alot worse...CCP could have labelled it an exploit and banned anyone using said trick
