And ganking can be risk-free (if your desire isn't profit but instead the gank itself) if you account for all of the REALISTIC possibilities that could prevent your gank from being successful. If you plan accordingly, you can eliminate risk.


no, i didn't.

no, it can't. we've just spent like 3 pages going over that. ganking is not risk free, you've even admitted it in several posts.


Right here is when you begin using an absolute as an attempt to prove me wrong:

so

yes you did.


no, that isn't an absolute. seriously, est-ce que parlez-vous anglais?


Sounds like you two girls are hittin it off. You should hook up. Roll


They say most of your brain shuts down on the EvE forums. All but the impatient side, and the sarcastic side. No wonder I'm still awake.

So you waste time trying to get proof of an absolute. You just sat here and spent like 3 pages or so worth of posting demanding I provide you with an absolute, which means an absolute is important to you.

I never brought up absolutes, you assigned the attribute of an absolute to my post of your own accord, showing a propensity to demand absolute proof.

You'll see I suggested multiple times that the risk was so negligible, that it wasn't worth considering as a determining factor you should use to influence your decisions. Yet even after my stating that repeatedly, you continued to demand an absolute.

ALSO, you stated that your own definition of "risk" as an absolute.


i didn't demand anything, i just pointed out that the chance of a sucessful gank wasn't 1, and you were wrong. you've just spent 3 pages not accepting that simple fact.

you were wrong, ganking isn't risk free. we've been over this like 6 times now. is french your first language? i speak french but you're having a lot of trouble with english at the moment it would seem.


Yes you did.

Ganking is not risk-free. You are literally a big red target for everyone to shoot at. I died, got podded, by a disco battleship last night. When I go back to -10, I won't be allowed to fly around highsec without constantly watching my overview and bouncing around; and to be honest, it was kind of nice not having Facpo show up everywhere I land. I got the chance to duel my friend without having to get past lowsec gate camps, etc.

So, ganking definitely has its penalties and risk and the fact that you can't see that is because you've never really tried it long enough to appreciate the difference.

Yes, but if they lose emotional control, dont forget those tears van get you banned

And, isn't sanity really just a one-trick pony anyway? I mean all you get is one trick, rational thinking, but when you're good and crazy, oooh, oooh, oooh, the sky is the limit.

I also snagged around 50 corpses this weekend to add to my collection. The corpse market is going to be interesting for the next few weeks.
