Why is there no hi-sec "union" style Corp for hisec protection

So bumping is a game mechanic.
Ccp won't acknowledge that the concord Ai is broken.

Why has no one set up an anti hi sec ganking protection Corp.

What freighter pilot wouldn't pay 100m a month (or more) for srp and security/remote reppers in high sec

The game mechanic of criminals makes it easier to have much more powerful ships smash gankers

I mean you'll need like 4 Paladins to bastion and a tank squad would go pop and remote rep like hell

This seems the obvious next step.

There must be 100s of freighter pilots who would pay a small monthly Sum for safer 0.5 considering there are really only 2 problem systems

Hey man, if you're willing to put forth the effort and ISK to organize such a thing and force it into being then more power to you.

There's really nothing stopping anyone from doing something like this aside from a mixture of effort, money, and the ability to demonstrate to your potential clients that your service works beyond the drawing board.

Talk to people.
Come up with a plan.
Make it happen.

But yeah, short answer is effort.
It's always easier to attack than defend.

Come hell or high water, this sick world will know I was here.

Broken how? Concord, in its current form, is terrible for gameplay but I've seen no indication that it's not working as intended.

No, your rights end in optimal+2*falloff

Bumping is considered a game mechanic because its use extends far beyond messing with people in hisec; as for the Concord AI not being acknowledged as broken, it's working entirely as intended, ergo it's not broken.

Many have tried and failed at setting up an anti ganking corp, the closest to one is the anti ganking chat channel in game, and they're about as effective as a chocolate fire-guard for the most part.

100M a month? You're having a laugh, the people you're targeting as a market won't pay CODE. 10M a year to direct their attention elsewhere. The ones that know what they're doing already use alts or corpmates with web bonused ships to get their freighters into warp quickly before a bumper can land their first love tap.

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

security forces against ganks is a worthless venture

1 of 2 things will happen

1 ganker has positive standings as they switch between being in null to rat and making empire runs to gank means you cant shoot first unless your willing to gank the ganker

2 gankers will swarm in and just because you think you can kill a few, doesn't mean the freighter is safe

2a either gankers will swarm and still kill the target despite a few losses

or

2b when the target is still alive being bumped, gankers will reship and proceed with additional waves (I have seen 3 waves of 20 catalyst to kill 1 freighter done in Jita on several accounts)

So unless your willing to gank the Bumper for a freighter to get away, the gankers will win, after all for most of those that do that level, its not their money

You have to bump the bumpers.

Now I've not been in code for a few months, but when I was there the policy was: if the gank was unjustified, and the ganker(s) in the wrong, then of of course.

Or did you mean if you became a Knight of the New Order yourself? Yes they do.

Bumping is a well-debated topic and you should look it up.

The reason why there are no changes to bumping or countering it yet is because it's difficult to find a way to counter it without breaking things and opening new avenues for exploit and ganking.

Eventually the issue will be solved and there are even some CSM candidates into that.

There already is a group designed to protect freighters. The bumper's union. For a small fee a freighter pilot can be added to what is called our no bump list. As chairman of the bumper's union I have full control over the other bumpers and I decide who does and who does not get bumped.

There is a group out there with a growing membership, AG or Anti-gank, a lose group of pilots that band together to try and stop the gankers.

Please contact me ingame for information.

It's funny you should say about the 100 million, it's often the figure freighter pilots give out for a save on their Ships

Remember this fight is war, both sides use what ever means possible, tactics, game rules are pushed to almost breaking point, swapping ship fittings the list is endless.
U
So to your points about fighting back, which I support 100 ‰, but not the execution.
You want to make a corp, well most of us fight in nps corps or very small corps to stop the endless war dec's you will receive, I would love to join a corp to fight gankers with large fleets etc.

As to your paladin fleet it would be a target for a gank on its own, or they would bring out more bumpers and you could never cover all their targets, if they gank my cheap Blackbird they will try for you.

Not trying to put you off, fight we must, in some of my post I have asked for ideas on how to get this done.
One idea was to gank the bumpers with cata of our own using alts (time commitment have messed up my eve time of late) this will still happen if I can get the pilots

Second plan is to help a friend with a cheap t1 repping fleet, that's going well but again we need pilots,

One or two other plans are afoot but I need to keep the lid on those for now, these are just my plans and ideas, others are doing the same, some just give the odd hour when they can, all helps

always remember who you are fighting, read minerbumbing about the terrible way they treat some players and set out to destroy their corps, after all just look at their permabanned player list, what more do I need to add.

Please do try something, remember people do want to help, most of the feed back from your post is from code or supports so don't worry about the trolling

A soft answer turneth away wrath. Once wrath is looking the other way, shoot it in the head A painting of me
