I think this is an excellent idea.

It will be forwarded to the proper authorities.

I am not a huge fan of most forms of highsec pvp, as I've established by now. But looking at some of the fits posted in the burner thread...flying around in 500m ISK frigates and advertising that you're doing it is excessive. I don't know how many people actually use faction/deadspace fits for these missions but it is a question that needs answering.

Obviously trading one thrasher for even a single decent faction mod is a huge ROI.

Looking at the damage profiles, it's pretty sneaky: Wait till the crab faget gets into low shield/armor from incoming NPC fire, then land a group of thrashers on him.

Thrashers with autocannons, no less. Cool

Autocannon thrashers are really good for hitting EM holes, which is a pretty common gap in mission boats.

Ok,
So, what do you think about this.

Skill books don't spawn in Jita. They have to be flown there.

The closest place they spawn at (that can see Jita's market) is "Sakenta" which is 2 jumps from Jita.

When I was a carebear, I used to trade skillbooks because it's a very safe commodity (spawns at set prices). I flew large values of skillbooks in ships as small as an Ibis.

Imagine all those copies of "capital ship" skill books traveling to Jita...


What do you think, farmable? It's a shame that nobody gets to enjoy all that value.

Late to the party, citizen. CCP just released a dev blog confirming what every ganking advocate has been saying for years: getting ganked is the most exciting thing that's ever happened to a new mission runner or miner, and that said mission runners and miners are more likely to quit if they have no lossmails.

Ganking is love. Ganking separates good players (and revenue) from the chaff. Pessimism verboten!

There is a big difference between losing a noob ship one time, and losing from a 200M to more than 1B ship.
So, the good players are sadomasochist players ?

It's a dead end.

Rule #1 - Don't fly what you can't afford to lose.

This is the only rule that matters in EVE.

The people that lose a ship early also won't be the ones to throw all of their isk into a faction battleship and lose it to a gank.

That's true, but it's mostly because they quit the game before they grow into faction battleship land.

That's true, but it's mostly because they quit the game before they grow into faction battleship land.
Alternatively it could be because they're not dumb enough to bling out their faction BS's for no appreciable ROI or to get caught napping.

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.
