Ok CCP I am completely baffled by this. Back when you first started we (my old corp out of beta) started espionage and leveled a strong corp. Soon after you put a message out that people doing such things would be banned. Now not only have you allowed that same espionage to take down a well known corp. but you allow someone to create an event that harasses hundreds of paying players whom just want to try and make a little isk to get ahead in the game without any sort of punishment and let alone allow them the soap box of your very own forums?
I strongly recommend you re-think this while you are allowing the (life sucking drab) of eve to continue their piracy you are bashing the greater of the population into leaving the game. I know of several beta testers that have left due to this kind of crap. Yes piracy is fun and part of the game, but contests that draw hundreds to harass others over the course of a month? That's paid time you are losing when others leave for that month. Check your rates I guarantee you have cancels when this person announces their little contest.
I say ban the lot of them and make eve better for people who actually appreciate it for what eve was truly meant to be instead of some outlet for enraged 10 year olds who have no morals and get off on manipulating a couple hundred ignorant fools into doing their dirty work.
Before you start the childish retorts of "QQ and Carebear" I'd like to point out I have never lost a ship to any of you noobs I've been playing Eve since Beta and have not yet had a person from this event win an assault on me. The problem is not that I've been attacked the problem is I LIKE eve and want to see it grow, but with the contests like this which encourage jerks to harass new comers in high sec and the like making new players leave. You are hurting the economy of eve and the player base. I want to see this game last and that is the ONLY reason I even care to make a post. I am already on the defensive and welcoming players in high sec to fleet and podding any person I find assaulting miners for this silly little contest. (No this is not the character I do it on. I want it to be a surprise lol)
I also encourage all miner corps to band together during this time. Set traps for the participants of this little contest and yes POD them ALL. |

Not a troll. Pointing out facts. Get a clue and stop hiding behind the 12 year olds flag of glory calling others who have a different opinion a troll rather then providing some type of conversation that has merit. Saying "troll" just makes you look like an idiotic child to anyone with half a brain.
Also yes they did threaten that about 3 months after beta due to my corp completely destroying another via espionage. I actually came up with the original idea and assault. Hence my annoyance with this kind of crap being allowed when my great idea got swift CCP action and ceased only later to be allowed yet again. Now worst crap that is causing people to stop playing and putting newcomers off to the idea of mining completely is welcomed and allowed to be advertised on the forums? What the hell CCP I say....

Somehow I am having a hard time believing you considering my corp does that kind of **** for a living. I mean we had a 5 page article in PC Gamer about how we absolutely destroyed another corp. You smell like dead fish. --------------------------------------- www.eve-pirate.com original author |

I could care less whether or not you believe me. Anyone from early post beta EVE knows this for a fact because they logged in to receive the message loud and clear from CCP as a popup in game message. |

Love the proof you people keep shoveling out as to why exactly this little contest is only for the ones whom ENJOY harassing others and needs to be ceased. CCP are you this blind?

Well that's two faceless alts, let's see if we can unearth anymore. Mind you, the claims of "I was playing since beta 7 years ago" get hard to believe in terms of your time-keeping, when you seem to think that 10 days is a month...
For what it's worth, Hulkageddon was one of the things that got me from trial to subs - not the event itself as such, but the example of how the game could be played with many conflicting playstyles at the same time; realising that Eve is survival of the smartest or sneakiest just as much as it is the biggest or the most expensive, and that the attitude of the "management" was that avoiding getting ripped off / blown up was YOUR responsibility not theirs.
There's so much more to Hulkageddon than griefing if you take the blinkers off : miners thinking they are safe in high sec being proved wrong and getting a lesson in Rule One, gankers thinking they have an easy kill bouncing off a super-tanked bait hulk whilst their target waves cheerfully at Concord, corporations posting extra prizes for kills in "their" space thus eliminating industrial competition without lifting a finger, popping a t2 barge in a flock of rookie ships simply because it's flipping hilarious, side bets on various outcomes running into tens of millions between competitors and observers, enterprising explorers selling bookmarks to grav sites for safer harvesting, market games and speculation on the percieved effects on ore and hulls - the list goes on and on.
This event (and every event in an MMO) is what you make of it, nothing more, nothing less. Shame that so many choose to make it a whine-fest.

We enjoy harassing "miners", not "people who mine". Appreciate the difference, and the implications thereof.

I dearly hope that this person's posts about Hulkageddon win a prize for someone. The degree of agitation and entitlement-mindedness is breathtaking.
HulkageddonÖ is working as intended.

Confirming that Hulkageddon participants are frequently harassed by the angry roid-wreckers.
Wait. That is what this topic's about,right?

-You are hurting the economy of eve and the player base.-
Hurting the economy of EVE.. Hulkageddon is hurting the economy of EVE..
Sorry, had to wrap my head around that one. God forbid ships are aloud to be blown up.. for the sake of the economy, stop it!
Let me ask.. What do YOU believe EVE was truly meant to be?
Your opinion.. not someone elses.
And an MMO thats this old.. with subscription base that keeps going up, is doing something right.
But please.. do tell us, what exactly Your EVE is... ---------------------------------------- Treat the EVE markets like you are its Pimp.. it is your 'willing' employee to fondle n use n abuse as you please. |

Nearly 1500 ships destroyed now as a result of Hulkageddon.
The ship-builders unions approve of this event and the boost to the local economies it provides.

Why in gods name dont the miners/industrials etc play the game with hulkageddon, tank up make your ship the most defendable it can be, imagine the massive smile on your face when a group comes in to kill you and they lose all their ships while you sit there grinning like a little girl at the carnage you caused, yes you did cause it by being very well tanked.
Of course some will out gank your tank but fine know your limits, tank well and 2-3 dessies is no problem, see 5+ warp and get your backside out of Dodge.

The reason they do not, is the same reason people cry to god when their flimsy plywood house is wrecked by a tornado, rather than build their house out of, you know, bricks and stone.

Or building an Earthship which because it is built semi underground is more resistant to tornado damage than even brick and mortar structures. -

You might get much better feedback if you didnt have that holier than thou attitude and bash everyone wanting to participate in tradition. really? get over it. whats worse? pirates or your nasty attitude. no one cares that you beta'd good for you. if you're so unhappy leave. and fyi. if you wouldn't say the garbage you said in other postts in person. don't bring it here. its a game. don't even play i know this is you

-YAY i love those who can read. Really I've never lost a ship to this noob little group. I don't even own a hulk lmao
Oh and I am sorry for knocking a pile of crap floating around waiting to be sunk hosting a very predominate group of obese ******s awaiting their return to the toilet of an ocean where they belong. Or at the very least melted down into the puddles of goo they already resemble :)
would you really say that to someone in person? would you really. i highly doubt it. keep that crap to yourself. cool story btw. lemme know when it comes out in print.

...You are hurting the economy of eve and the player base... ... putting newcomers off to the idea of mining completely...
you say you are stating the facts, please back this one up.
here is a set of my own feelings [note i said feelings]: without ships going pop, who would buy more? without ships going pop, who would buy more modules? without ships going pop, who would buy anything?
War is what drives the Eve economy, dont be mistaken by thinking you need a Concord sanctioned one to go to war.
In addition, check out the prices on the ore market, they tanked, and are now on the mend...without hulkageddon wouldnt the profession become so unprofitable it woud be botted non stop?
mm no wait.....why is hulkaggedon bad again?

There is nothing in the EULA prohibiting this activity or espionage. It has been embraced as part of the "sandbox" game. There maybe some things that could be deemed an exploit..example: if they are trying to circumvent security ratings or deny concord action somehow.. but as far as I can tell no one is trying these this.
Harassment is personal; this is about as impersonal as you can get.. they are killing everyone in a hulk and calling them macros.
