Indeed, along with other ships, this is exactly what the miners will be looking for.<br /><br />By managing to use probes to successfully ambush the miner, VK made use of considerable skill.<br /><br />Also, how do we tell if players are AFK, semi-AFK, or at the controls? Do we convo them to make sure it's okay to attack, to see if they're ready? If they don't reply, we're completely sure they're not just faking it, right? If they're not AFK, is it okay to gank them? Should we wait until they reship in to an appropriate combat ship? Should we just implement arenas so that everyone fights to some arbitrary code of honour that you find suitable?pjharveyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04087113822977971310noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7656651603131896852.post-60571784584114906362014-05-19T18:46:52.880-04:002014-05-19T18:46:52.880-04:00Excellent hunt, and a deserved kill.

T...Excellent hunt, and a deserved kill. Great job!<br /><br />That reminds me, I should update my guide to include the new range gate on d-scan.pjharveyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04087113822977971310noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7656651603131896852.post-39348436237588559482014-05-17T09:33:03.718-04:002014-05-17T09:33:03.718-04:00Reads like a thriller.

In what way? Ganking people in wspace is...Better? In what way? Ganking people in wspace is not morally superior to ganking them in highsec, if that is what you are asking. In fact there is no moral aspect to ganking at all.<br /><br />If, however, you are asking about how it was a better <i>hunt</i> -- see the title? -- then I can tell you. It was better because it was <i>harder</i>. More mentally taxing. Easier to mess up if I misstep. I was making decisions at many points during the thing; I believe you can see that in my write-up. I was making decisions because the circumstances were not cut and dried, as they are in a miner gank. For example: I started in the wrong ship (my Manticore). To reship, I'd have to take the risk of being seem on dscan at the wormhole twice. Is that worth it?<br /><br />As for how AFK he was, that semi-AFK was a conjecture. He was not scanning every 10 seconds during the four windows that I was exposed. Beyond that, only he knows how AFK he was. I do know he got his pod out quite promptly, and he did it perhaps 8 seconds after everything was completely boring and normal.
