Ganking People in Sol

Yesterday a Python Mk2 pulled me in Sol. I was in an Orca. I won the mini game, but the game did not interrupt the interdiction even when my bar was 100% filled, and my opponent's empty for a few good seconds. It's like the game didn't react to the fact that I won the mini game at all.

So I eventually submitted and high waked out with 44% hull and no shields. Returned to Sol and managed to get to a station, and accidentally bumped into another ship. Now I have a fine, can't repair and can't take missions due to 1 Notoriety from earlier PP2 shenanigans.

Absolute waste of time.

(While the ganker doesn't give a flying and happily keeps clubbing the seals. There was no police response whatsoever. This design is absolutely ridiculous. Obviously they went straight into my block list.)

Reminder that you can and should use the block function to filter out people you don't want to play with. It's there, it works like a charm and you should absolutely use it and abuse it. Until fdev fixes their utterly broken crime and punishment system, this is the only way.

Also, don't listen to "but mah InStAnCeZ" crying from the gankers, it's on them, not on you.

Ganker won the minigame on their side as well.
From my experience that mini game UI doesn't display enemy progress correctly.
It's always rigged.

Careful. I burned my forum fingers a few times when stating that I don't care if it messes up instancing. People still tried to blame it on me ;).
If we all blocked all gankers, then they would only be able to instance with themselves and we would live happily ever after ;)

FDEV failed to introduce the Karma system, gotta do it for them, one ganker at a time :D
 
Where there’s AX pilots there’s gankers who know we can’t fight back. - Makes them feel big taking out a combat ship, even if it can’t actually fight back 💪
To be fair - I've been in large instances of AX pilots, who have turned on gankers, and utterly annihilated them!

If I spot a ganker doing 'ganker things' in an AX CZ, I will usually drop what I'm doing and go after them.
Even in 'non-meta' ships, 10 AX ships will be more than a match for a lone ganker - join me if you see it happening! o7
 
Not in a weaponless (yet armoured!) passenger transport Orca against gankboat PMk2 ;)
That's fair enough - not alot you can do with no weapons (n)

But the people there to fight the larger Tharogids, really should band together - gank the gankers!
I've actually gone as far as to make some anti-anti-anti-Thargoid builds (Is that the right number of antis?)...
Using 'meta' PvP weapons, with some Thargoid stuff thrown in (Such as the Shutdown/Pulse field Neutraliser or a single AX-multicannon) - I think I've given the gankers a shock or two, when I turn on them with PA's, Pacs and Pack Hounds....in the middle of an AX CZ!
