So im a ganker that love to blap AutoPiloters and noobs hauling their *beep*.

But i've noticed more and more people coming to collect a km but yet calling it anti-ganking.

What im trying to figure out is why they call themselves anti-gankers when they dont save the target im going for, but only collecting km's filled with gateguns.
So what im asking is, what is the point of that?

And as you prob will ask, whats the point of ganking in hi-sec? Loot ofcorse.

It's either "but" or "yet", never both.

New Eden isn't nice. It isn't friendly. It isn't very hospitiable. Good thing there are people here to shoot in the face.

Want to make New Eden a nice place? Try this out.

That there is someone starting a thread to whine about it fuels this activity.

Some people think KM's is a sign of skill or prestige. In actuality, its the hunt not the kill.

Just ignore them.

If you failed at every gank you attempted would you not still be a ganker?

If I began failing because they actually do something worth calling anti-ganking, then yes I would either cut it down/stop or find a new way of doing so.
But you cant stop somebody by killing them after the gank has already ben done.

Then no, I would not still be a ganker if I failed every single one.

So even though you are attempting to gank people you are not a ganker? What would you call yourself?

You = ganker
They = anti-ganker

So they = anti-you
not anti-your.activity.

They would have called themselves anti-gankingers if they cared about stopping what you're doing. They don't they just want your corpses.

I didn't ask what the point would be or whether you would continue on, I asked what you would call yourself.

They're carebears and haters, which means that
they will do ANYTHING to make themselves feel like achievers
and no lie, self deception or delusion is too big!


That's all there is to it.

Its statistically impossible to fail 100% of the time. Which makes it really hard to be me.

Its obvious bait, but hell, I wouldn't have my name if I didn't at least pretend to fail at something. Here goes nom nom nom.

You see, Anti-ganking isn't about helping others. It isn't about saving the victim. Nor even about stopping ganking like the name implies. Anti-ganking is all about whoring on a CONCORDOKKEN, and then claiming victory. Its a reactive movement versus a proactive movement.

Sure, there are some who will use some ECM or reps to save someone once in a great while, but those acts are so few and far between that they are outliers in the AG statistics.

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

Feeling satisfied from whoring on lossmails
and then bragging about the kill someone else made?

Yep, you nailed it!

Wait, wait, wait.....all it takes to be an anti-ganker now is to whore in on CONCORD-mails?

What's after that....be in system when CONCORD spawns?
