But the point you were saying is that a goon cant make a new account and go ganking. Sure he can, just hes unlikely to get as many on day 1. After a week or so, he should easily be able to solo gank.

It took a lot of time and a lot of logistics. Sure it gave me a fairly decent reward, but it required so much more time. Being in the CFC requires considerably less of my time and is nearly as rewarding. My spare time I can now spend running my high sec trade, which is pretty rewarding too.

Or orcas. Or take a region of sov solo. Not everything is best done on your own. There are limits to what you can accomplish, and sometimes you just need raw numbers, regardless of skill. A tackler needs barely any SP, barely any player skill (fly at target screaming and clicking your ward scrambler) and yet is one of the most important parts of PvP for example. Oftentimes I've heard a fleet calling out for more tackle, and its a role literally anyone can do, it's easier than ganking. This is where having other people helps.<br /><br />And I know, I know I should be blogging :p I might have to do a writeup on the bombless bomber.Lucas Kellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03969897349629783605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461700565722278823.post-37329229930810548982013-10-02T11:41:52.621+02:002013-10-02T11:41:52.621+02:00Firstly, I just want to say I do not understand th...Firstly, I just want to say I do not understand the point you are trying to make with this post. What are you trying to say? It seems to be a rambling of unconnected comments rather that steered towards a point. Oh and I haven't giggled like you promised me so you owe me 1m isk in compensation.<br /><br />I mean you talk about the ice interdiction. Which ran full swing for a week, then we deployed and most of us went to delve, yet still in that 30 day period they did 270b in kills. Not to mention that the desired effect was to raise tope prices to make profit, which happened, and we made loads. Sure it wasn't the sustained hit that the other interdictions were, but honestly what do you expect in the middle of a war?<br /><br />And then you talk about miniluvs barge and exhumer kills in september. So? they aren't a barge ganking corp. They are a for profit corp. Barges and exhumers give very little profit. If you look at their KB though what they mainly target is freighters. On the 30th alone, they killed 2 freighters which dropped 6b between them at the cost of 17 catalysts total. That's what they do, so comparing their barge kills is a pointless as they only do that to pass time (or if they spot a juicy drop). Why would the Mittani drop a clearly profiting corporation?<br /><br />Then there's: "A bored nullsec player can no longer start a recruit-a-friend 51-days free account and massacre miners for lulz". Well that's wrong. It takes no time at all to ramp a ganker up, since you don't need any support skills. You can jam them into a T1 dessie on day 1, and a small gun specialisation takes no time at all.<br /><br />" A ganking fleet spends more time lolling on childish jokes than actually flying out to gank and fail half of ganks because someone didn’t have ammo, had safety on, undocked in a pod or shot the wrong target."<br />This I want proof of. I don't think you've had enough experience with ganking groups to make this assumption. You flew with new order, but they are a bunch of idiots to be honest. There's plenty of ganking groups out there that are successful. See miniluv for example. Solo gankers are just restricted in what they can kill. If you are in it for profit (which many gankers are), solo gankers can only kill small haulers. Not much else is very profitable.<br /><br />"What I did is clearly not something that you couldn’t do. No “l33t skillz” are needed to gank miners."<br />Then this confuses me. You say this, yet you point at other corps and say "look how much I beat them!" (paraphrasing). Well surely, if its super easy (which it is) then they could easily have done the same. This leads me to believe that their KB stats aren't comparatively lower because they are terrible, but because the CHOOSE NOT TO GANK MINERS. There's no profit in it and the tears get boring after a couple of days, so most of us don't bother.<br /><br />"Because you are held back by the incompetent fools around you. The funds of your organization goes to handouts to the morons and slackers and in doctrines you have to limit yourself to the lowest common denominator (the bombless bomber)."<br />You still think this is the case don't you? I tell you what, I'll accepts your comments on this when you successfully take several regions of sov. Bombless bombers are an absolute genius concoction of the meta. They are cheap, easy to fly, easy to get in an out, and can't be blocked by a cyno jammer. They are also amazing to watch in a fleet of 255. Good luck jumping a fleet of dreads in to do the job the bombers do without PL or BL dropping a fleet of supers on them for the fun of it.Lucas Kellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03969897349629783605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1461700565722278823.post-90278893163351974522013-10-02T10:18:03.766+02:002013-10-02T10:18:03.766+02:00"61.5.B/average pilot.

You can't compare easy kills you can do on massive scale without any fear of anyone fighting back to real pvp kills. It's obvious finding a real enemy and winning is much harder, both in terms of time and skill required. Ganking miners just require to warp to a belt and press f1. Then repeat all day long. These are totally different things, but you still choose to compare them. What's the point? I can say I have more frigate kills than you scored in your entire career. And the question would still be the same - so what?
