====Gate Camps====
Gate Camps are basically players waiting on a Gate to catch anyone who jumps through into them. There are a number of variables that determine how effective they'll be, such as the number of players involved, the types of ships they are using and the actual size of the Gate itself, but we can negate all of these. What we are concerned with is the time to warp of our own ship. Due to the way the server mechanics supposedly work, the fastest that anyone can get a point on a ship is 2 seconds. Therefore, if we can get our time to warp to be less than 2 seconds we are, theoretically, impossible to catch without the use of a bubble. We say theoretically because there can be the odd times were this doesn't work, such as if you are lagging, but 99% of the time you will unwatchable. This is also true for HiSec and LowSec.
