There is nothing stopping you from hunting suspects and criminals. If you want to play policeman, do it in a Police Comet if that floats your boat and/or tickles thy pickle. You can tell them to pull over in local as well as maybe tell them to 'Freeze!', oh.. and don't forget to wear the big ass cop sunglasses, and maybe a throw on a lip caterpillar for good measure. Remember to ask them if they know why you pulled them over, or else the whole thing just loses something.

Do i understand well ?

Yes, they kill miners. In fact, when it comes to CODE. , I think of a group of players who blow up spaceships in a game about blowing up spaceships. Certainly, some of them take their RP too far, but at the end of the day, it's all about having fun in Highsec. A 'normal' EVE player knows that they aren't RL sociopaths or murderers.

They also create opportunities for others to test the 'player police' gameplay. (or, "vigilante", lol). For example, when I first noticed their ganking ops as a miner, I simply fitted gallente jammers on my Skiff and started protecting nearby miners by jamming the Catalysts who tried to gank them.

I can assure you, there is great fun in jamming those Catalysts while mining, and preventing the gank long before the stupid automatic NPC CONCORD arrival. In other words, you replace CONCORD in a much more successful way.

I find it odd that you weaken your Skiff's tank in order to protect your direct competition, but hey, we all do strange things for the lulz sometimes.

If you want to really protect them, you could also advise them to purchase mining permits, follow the CODE, and teach them vigilance to help them avoid non-CODE. player hazards.

Middle-class, white, suburban family types. Their closest brushes with some kind of unfairness in life come from having to go to the DMV to renew their driver licenses. I know people like this. The world is beautiful, peaceful, and joyful, and man strives to help man, as the soccer moms fill up their cars and bring groceries home to their 4-bedroom homes every Friday. To lie is a sin (the pastor said so), and the bad things only happen far, far away, to people who (probably) deserve them.

Like I said, I know these people. "Sheltered" doesn't even begin to describe them. They're the ones who wage holy crusades against scamming and ganking, because just the notion of such concepts risks upsetting their very existence (shattering the glass dome, so to say). I've met miners/mission runners who've told me that taking from them/killing them in the game is no different than doing the same to them in real life.

So yes, some will see themselves as better off if they help the competition because they ignorantly view their activities as helping to achieve some kind of greater good.

I wrote some true EVE stories! And no, they're not of the generic "my 0.0 alliance had lots of 0.0 fleets and took a lot of 0.0 space" sort. Check them out here:

Really has the publicity for code. been lacking of late? Lol

I love a roleplay as much as the next person, but you are pushing the boundaries in regards to supposedly saving high sec. Lets call it what it is, an extortion racket based upon how you view the game should be played (play my way/pay up or else). You can wrap it all up in a nice fuzzy feeling about teaching players how big and bad EVE is, but ultimately you are playing at being a evangelical host that has a narrow view on how the game should be played.

Since you are teaching out of the kindness of your hearts, why not do it for free, since you have received over 500 billion in ahem donations to the cause.

The biggest reason we think we need them is also the biggest reason why it wont happen. Ganking.

Exactly. I did it because it's fun. I don't really care about yield and the Skiff is rarely ganked, especially if you check d-Scan all the time like I do. So why not use all those low and mid slots to do original things like that? I have stopped many ganks with that Skiff, collected large amounts of ganker tears in a form of heavy water commodity, and asked them to get "ganking permits" in Local.

It's all about contributing to emergent gameplay and enjoying the damn game instead of complaining, and that is more important than the boring "mining competition" or the "Middle-class, white, suburban family types" example given by the other guy. What?

Teaching them vigilance is a must indeed. I have written a guide for Highsec miners about the importance of D-Scan, and I also insist on the importance of general spatial awareness whenever possible.

Be the change you want to see in Highsec.

CODE has no killing right if they are assasins.
They are under the law, under CONCORD law and local polices law.

But CODE is not the subject.

Assasins are.

Killing with a killing right is under the Law.
Killing an outlaw under -5.0 security status is under the Law.

Killing without a killing right is out of the Law.
Killing a positive security status capsuleer is out of the Law.
CONCORD principles must help you how to behave.

It is individual responsability to decide to kill out these principles.
If CONCORD do the job in High sec, The Law will also do the job against outlaws.
If CONCORD charges also them anywhere out of High sec, we will be the armed wing of
a justice without weakness.

Here is the start of a new era.
No identified corporation.
No Alliance.
Only an organisation against those who like flesh for flesh.
With agents, with mercenaries, alone, within their corps or
alliances.

I am not the character you could kill to avoid it.
I am only his messenger.

All money and all ships are and will be there to
track the wicked.

It could be interesting to vote for police members paid by the community to protect their diary life in space.

Not a reactive police only.
A pro active police.

Assassins must be punished by the law.



Oooh, that will end well.

I can already see it...the tears of all the high-sec people that will rage-quit because the "voted by the people" police kills off all mining etc



Where can I vote for this...

Ditch Faction Police --> neg. sec status players could roam freely and be shootable by anyone

Deny highsec docking rights to neg. sec status players --> they would have to reship either in lowsec (you could camp the highsec gate, for a change) at a POS (you can wardec it and shoot it or force them to take it down) or at an Orca (low-ish smb seems impractical to me, but if not you could scan it down and shoot at players while they're reshipping)


I wonder if anyone would bother though: if you're decent at PVP and you're not a ganker, you don't live in highsec.
