Crimewatch
Crimewatch is the name for the system in EVE that handles legality. It's important to understand that this is not a system in place to protect you, but rather to punish those that break the law. The distinction is important, because your safety is not the purpose of this mechanic and there are lots of ways to kill people as long as you're willing to suffer the consequences of your actions.
In order to get the most of this article you should make sure you understand the basics of safety settings and know what the different timers are and what they mean.
CONCORD's response time
CONCORD's response time varies based on the security level of the system you're in. It can also be manipulated to both increase and decrease their response time. See CONCORD for information about the NPC corporation itself.
| System security / Response time |
0.5 Security | 0.6 Security | 0.7 Security | 0.8 Security | 0.9 - 1.0 Security |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Not spawned [1] | 20 seconds | 15 seconds | 11 seconds | 8 seconds | 5 seconds |
| Spawned elsewhere [2] | 25 seconds | 20 seconds | 18 seconds | 15 seconds | 5 seconds |
| Spawned on grid | Existing CONCORD forces respond in mere seconds. | ||||
- ^ This is the natural state, so this is what you get without any manipulation going on by players.
- ^ While doing this intentionally is declared an exploit (read the clarification), there are situations where this might happen naturally without players exploiting these mechanics. So it's still relevant to be aware of the extra time they might have.
