Y'all keep saying the same things and don't want even to try to understand what I'm talking about. Not sure why though.
A Way to Fix Ganking Forever

I’m pretty sure I understand, I just think you’re wrong though...
You said...
So, by your own words, the networking has nothing to do with it being a MMO...
So, if networking has nothing to do with MMO operation... (do you actually know what the "O" in MMO means?)
The more I read of what you post the more I'm getting convinced that you are just trolling...
Oh well, as we're going around in circles here it must be time to go out and gank some unfortunate NPC's... 
Ok, you failed to read even in second attempt.
It's ok.
I'll try to explain.
Just try to keep focus.
Not "networking" but "networking model" has nothing to do with ED being an MMO.
See? Nothing complex. Now I'm out.
Of course it doesn't... without any form of networking model it wouldn't be a MMO...
Perhaps the failure is not in my understanding of how networking models function (I'm certain that Novell and Microsoft wouldn't have certified me as competent otherwise) but in either your phraseology or perception of the importance of any kind of networking model (even P2P) is in the functionality of a MMO?
Thanks for sharing...
I do love when the only possible response is a meme...
I accept your retraction gracefully
I accept your retraction gracefully
Sorry I did not found a facepalm meme with Bill Gates for your "microsoft certificate" statement lol
I'd love it if the low-sec systems (NOT anarchy) had a distinctly less big-brother approach, where being attacked would summon an authority response as your distress call goes out, but they can't issue a bounty unless they actually see you being naughty - so if you assault someone, the cops are summoned but you don't actually become wanted unless the authority ships catch you in the act of commiting a crime or at the very least they catch you at the scene (I imagine they're smart enough to hear "help cmdr screemonster is attacking me" over comms, arrive and see cmdr screemonster hanging around next to a debris field or damaged ship, and put two and two together)
If this were the case, I'd assume high-security systems had a more advanced system link and surveillance satellites that could verify a crime-in-progress based on just a report. Likewise, things like a nav beacon, settlement or station would count as "authorities" for the sake of verifying a crime report.
Highsec, I'd also beef up to the point where interdictions are considered a bounty and summon an authority response.
That's something that, imo, would make a notable difference between low, medium and high security.
It depends on the system. Borann got pretty bad at times, whatever the current CG is can be awful, but minor-hotspots can be generally okay. The biggest pain about system chat in systems that don't have an active conversation going when you arrive is that you have no way of knowing if anyone is listening, so nobody bothers piping up for a chat in the systems where people are just chilling and going about their business.
Don't worry - I accepted your retraction already, so no special effort required, although I appreciate your despair in being unable to provide the correct meme...
(You may wish to consider the possiblility that whatever point you are trying to make is either being lost in translation (assuming you are not a native English speaker) or have been phrased in such a way as to be imprecise - as your continuing attempts at mockery just lessen your credibility in being able to present a valid viewpoint)
I spent a few hours in the Imp / Fed combat CG - the system chat while I was there was overall pretty good and kept me amused as much was loadout discussions - which are always interesting - and chat about the Empire losing... The WHN supply run chat was much less interesting to me, but I was only there long enough to unload my FC.
I've never bothered with Borann, but have heard some of the comments about it
The cause of misery thinking they're a victim? Poor, poor ganker. Perhaps there should be a ganker server, where only gankers and people that want to be ganked go to play?Sigh..... No
Sadly I'm beginning to feel sorry for Gankers on the forums these days, playing the game their way, blazing their own trail, etc., Only to be murdered by apparent victims on the suggestion forums with what I would call ludicrous solutions.
My advice would be to the OP, just use the Block feature and move on.
Oh wait, that wouldn't work would it. Hmm.
Open then? Not that when I play Open I’m asking to be ganked, but you know, I’m... open to it?
Obviously you are not in the position to be able to say, wearily, how many meaningless 'certificates' you have accumulated over the past 45 years just because a lucrative contract demanded "X Qualification"... About the only bit of paper that was worth the effort was Novell certification - and that was a very long time ago - but the heap of pointless bits of paper did make a lot of money for me, so - in truth - I shouldn't be bleating too loudly, should I?
That is very amenable of you... I'll invite you to a party in open when my HOTAS arrives... I know a couple of very pleasant Anarchy systems you'd be dying to see...
I’ll make sure to fill my cargo racks with fireworks so the explosion is extra satisfying
Because people want a living galaxy with people in it, not just bots.
You'd understand that if you didn't have social phobia.
Why don't the gankers go into their own server? Oh yes, it would be empty. They are nothing but parasites.
Are you people living on planet earth? Not sure if it's stupidity or just autism.
"Go solo bro!"
Going solo after being destroyed once in a life-sized galaxy makes no sense. I play Open for the encounters for good or bad, but the equation is unbalanced in favour of the bad hence it needs to be solved. It's like being at a job and something comes a long that disrupts how you do your job. Your terrible solution is to ignore the problem which only makes things worse.
"Block 'em bro!"
Yeah, I should block them AFTER they destroy my ship and I lose all of my diamonds right?
That would solve nothing.
It's quite obvious that most people on this forum are filthy gankers themselves.
