Wait the Carebear squad was saying it's not fair that they were blowing up empty freighters, it's not fair that CODE is only doing this for griefing blah blah blah and now you're saying that there's "insane profits"

Come on guys get your story straight.


Yeah, see for a small while there people were carrying 50b+ plus in freighters on a constant basis. This doesn't happen anymore but we can't allow this fact to get in the way of our incessant whining.

The funny thing is CCP shot them down in flames but left this thread open for the tears. I bet they read some of the posts and laugh their butts off. Even CCP devs need comedy

It's like watching one of those late-night infomercials. You know the one, the annoying dude in the loud suit yelling at you that the US Government just wants to GIVE you all this free money. Ganking is just like that, see!

It's just so easy, risk-free, simple, etc. You just go...and gank freighters in highsec. Just do it. Easy money! So easy CCP should nerf it!

It's so easy nobody else is doing it because reasons.

Every complaint about ganking in this thread literally comes from the belief that online games should all be honourable 1v1 e-bushido simulators. I'm actually really surprised that no one has made references to their balls to back up such complaints.

There is also an effective way to avoid being bumped... have your buddy web you!

IF bumping is functionally equivalent to warp disrupting

THEN webbing is functionally equivalent to ECM with regards to warping out.

You can go on for another 50 pages but you can not deny webbing is functionally equivalent to ECMing and hence we don't need your horribad 60 second get out of jail free card.

Open your eyes,
Look up to the skies and see,
I'm just a poor boy, I need no sympathy,
Because I'm easy come, easy go,
Little high, little low,
Anyway the wind blows doesn't really matter to me, to me.

To fix the suicide ganking problem CCP needs desparately to fix nullsec. Currently the only point to nullsec is that it is an isk printing machine enabling bored null sec pilots to come to highsec for what little fun they have left in this game. It is a bit sad really.

Mama, just killed a man,
Put a gun against his head,
Pulled my trigger, now he's dead.
Mama, life had just begun,
But now I've gone and thrown it all away.

Too late, my time has come,
Sent shivers down my spine,
Body's aching all the time.
Goodbye, everybody, I've got to go,
Gotta leave you all behind and face the truth.

I don't wanna die,

So you think you can stone me and spit in my eye?
So you think you can love me and leave me to die?
Oh, baby, can't do this to me, baby,
Just gotta get out, just gotta get right outta here.
