Just talking hypothetical, because I certainly can't imagine anyone being able to herd the high sec cats (it pains me to say that).

Some Goon laughingly suggested a high sec player police force to deal with the ones who enjoy the asshattery of nailing high sec miners.
So if someone was willing to create a coalition to interdict the gankers, would it be feasible?

Are the high sec gankers enjoying Hulkageddon and Caldari Ice mining centralized in a relatively small amount of corps/alliances, or are they scattered across a legion of corps?

For this thought exercise, imagine a high sec player corp or alliance that dec's the main group of gankers .
Now imagine that high sec player police force protects the choke points into a select few Caldari ice fields.

Would the gankers arrive en masse for a opportunity to fight "carebear" combat boats?
Are the Goons too busy in their dance with Raiden to come to high sec?
Are the gankers spread out across too many corps to make this possible, assuming they are in player corps at all?

Like I said, it is virtually impossible to get the high sec folks to organize to this degree, and I believe the sociopaths that enjoy trashing miners are scattered across too many corps to make it possible to dec many.

But I am still curious of the theory of it.




It is quite entertaining what can happen when i get bored and my corp wants to join in. Which is exactly what has happened here.

Now onto something else. Goonswarm as a whole is not doing this. Bat Country how ever is the only corp that is actually putting it to the nasty bots of Caldari space.

Oh sure. We can all successfully predict where random acts of violence are going to be randomly occurring in random places spontaneously.

Yeah, fight back with yo bad self. Roll

Current mechanics allow you to kill the agressor as soon as he turns red. I Spent 2 months having all kinds of fun popping Goons and wannabee Goons during the Ice interdiction, to the point they had pretty much given up "Interdicting" Ardallabier.
They occasionally came in and killed a few noobs that refused, or were incapable of fitting a tank, but they would pretty much fail on anything with a tank.

With sufficient firepower and a properly tanked miner, you can fail these ganks all day long, you just have to be willing to spend the time and resources....

so much for that

grats on joining an irrelevant and poor alliance 8-)



Lol, A Goon talking crap about someone elses's alliance, Priceless. Cool


You guys back up there again? I wish I had time to screw with you now, but I'm busy with other stuff, don't have the time to wait for you kids to get up the courage to gank.....

As for joining an irrelevant Allaince, you seem to have forgotten this is a game, and it's about having fun, and since I'm having fun, it works for me.
As for the Alliance being poor, I could care less, I have plenty of isk, plenty of ships, reimbursement is the least of my concerns.
Having an FC that is crazy enough to go against heavy odds and win is more important. Better than sitting and dying in 10% tidi with a thousand drakes...Shocked



I realize being a Goon makes it hard to keep your perspective, but try to remember it's a game, and it's about having fun...
