Some say I am an evil person, but I am not an unfair one.
Thus I give you this warning post. Starting at 0:00 tonight, hulkageddon V is in effect.
If you wish to participate and earn delicious isk and win prizes, visit the Hulkageddon V site for all the information you need.
For those of you who missed it, this year you will be paid 100 million isk for every 10 hulks/macks/skiffs/orcas you kill! As many times as you like!
Naturally there is a plethora of other prizes, which you can find on the prizes page of the website. All you need to do to play is:
1) enter your killmail api on eve-kill.net 2) blow stuff up
We will do the rest.
Happy Hunting!
(as always, feel free to send any delicious tears to me)

People will keep mining, and with 100mil/10kill, a ton of people will gank all month. You can profit on that, easy. |

Cheap to buy and doesn't take them long to earn the initial isk outlay the difference in yield isn't even that bad considering how much more mining you need to do to offset the original purchase price of the ship that's likely to get blown up. |

30 Million compared to 339 mil for the hulk is cheap especially considering the increased return from minerals these days. |

You left out the increased price of all the mods that make it actually mine. AND the loss of reduced income due much much lower yield. Proportionately, it all works out about the same tbh. IF...IF one has access to Pyrox. THAT is the only good high sec ore besides veldspar atm. And, Chribba excepting, a man cannot live by veldspar alone.

It's kinda funny because the people starting these threads have probably never even read the forums, ever.
And if they had, they'd have known to avoid Jita for awhile vOv 95% of the players are loving EVE, the other 5%? On the forums. |

Ya know, with enough support we can just get CCP to remove hulks. They really are a stupid ship to fly with their ****** hitpoints, crappy fitting options (really, MU increase CPU but a mag stab doesn't...while skills reduce fitting options for guns but there are no skills to reduce strip miners), and nobody wants to watch them but the best they can do is spout how the miner should fit tanks while exploiting the stupid weakness of a poorly designed ships (which, isn't much different then a Titan exploiting the fact every risk adverse whinebear in null usually brings a battleship instead of a cap ship that has way better buffer...so nothing wrong with titans and un-nerf them as the obvious problem was the guys piloting the battleships exploding to XL guns just as easily as a hulk pilot explodes to destroyers...both fit sufficienct tanks and the problem is solved).
And we don't need miners anyway. Bring back gunmining and mission loot, not our fault those stupid miners picked the wrong profession that took longer and slower to bring in minerals while there was other way to bring them in much faster with a different skill set that doubles as a battleship pilot. |

Yeah, he probably shouldn't have made that statement on a CCP owned and operated venue. Also you blatantly posting that crap and promoting a lifetime ban just might be against the EULA/TOS. Whether it is or not, that post by you is definitely off topic and easily incites a flame war.
However, it still doesn't negate the sentiments shared by a lot of others and probably be a good idea to take that as fair warning, sorta like how this flame thread was presented. .

Anyhoo.. Fly Safe Helicity, hopefully I'll have a billion isk to toss towards the Orca Kill category here soon.
It's amazing how some people constantly twist everything around and portray it out of context just to suit their own agenda. It wasn't intended as a threat, just a statement of common sense. Seems to me the ones who take this game way too seriously are players like you. |

I don't take this game seriously at all. That would be the difference between me, and someone that would make a RL threat over a game. Let me remind you again that it is a game. How you are unable to see or accept that, and for some strange reason seem to think what I said implies I take the game to seriously when I stated very clearly the opposite of that leaves me scratching my head. I would suggest you go see your psychiatrist and have him up your medication as you seem to be seeing things that are not there.
Have a nice day. Cupcake.
*edit* Also, in the years I have played this game I have never felt the need to make a RL threat to anybody over anything that has happened in the game. I have however invited those who did make such threats to come to Maui where I'd be happy to meet them at the airport, with the police, and have them arrested and sent to one of Hawaii's lovely (not) psychiatric institutions... for being crazy enough to take a game so seriously they'd actually try to attack someone in RL over it. If that is me taking the game to serious then I guess red is black, white is purple and you are smart. In EVE Online...-á-á A Friend will calm you down when you are angry after getting Ganked.., but a Best Friend will fly along beside you commanding a Strike Group singing "Someones Gonna Get It!!!".-á ~Zora'e-áI once popped a frigate with a Battleship just for the LOL's... Concord didn't think it was funny. |

That said, I guess we could pay for titans like some ~elite pvp~ groups but that's just wrong. Besides, I'd be interested to see your alliance losses per person in terms of isk. Not just losses but reimbursements per person (per character, whatever). Go on.

That one takes months, even years of long slow patience to pull off well, unless you get jollies from stealing 200 Thrashers like some kind of MMO Panty Raid.

They were legit last year, but nothing's been said this year about anything other than mining barges and exhumers. |

With the TiDi Concord bugs in Jita showing how bad Crimwatch's coding is I suugest you all double down on patch day of Inferno Hulksters!!! You are liable to find out tons of wardeck expoights which effectively silence Concord thru out High SEC. Right now GM's backlogs I suspect are outrageous... The Incursion nerf has more then DECIMATED that community & I see plenty of questions about mining. I suspect your goal of creating as much unsubs as possible thru rage quits will be met and then some To the whiners : CCP Soundwave "Incursions are not a big issue in terms of isk globally" |

I didn't want to create a new post to the forums about this, but I do hope that it will not be overlooked here either.
I have some questions on this event if I may.
First: which ships are the targets? Obviously, Hulks and Mackinaws according to the website Helicity has provided. But the Goons kill board also mentions Orcas as well. What about Skiffs, Procurers, Covetors and Retrievers? Assuming they are not included in the reward system, one might argue that it is not efficient to gank those as it will only result in a loss of the ship that destroys the miner, and it will not be counted or rewarded at all. In this perspective, what about industrials? I've seen a fair amount of new players mining in those as they do not have a large ship yet that can hold a substantial amount of ore (regardless of how inefficient mining in an industrial is). Are all industrials included as well, or just the ones caught mining?
Second: what could players do to protect themselves? I have no Hulk ship or any mining barge for that matter (I hardly mine anyway), but assume that a player (miner) in a corp has some friends that want to protect him. Now, knowing the Hulk pilot is a target, they fly some Covert Ops ships and lay in wait. Ganker comes along and opens fire. What can the corp do to protect him without CONCORD destroying all their ships as well?
Is it possible that, assuming the Ganker opens fire first
A: because the ganker opened fire on a corp member, all members of that same corp are allowed to fire back, even though the intial assault was not directed at the players, but at the Hulk pilot? Is this also the case if the players defending the Hulk pilot are not in the same Corp, but are in the same alliance?
B: If the description of A will always lead to CONCORD attacking the corp/alliance members as well, it is only possible to legally return fire upon a ganker if all members are part of a fleet, including the Hulk pilot?
Third: the possibility of scarcity
It has been announced that the event is going to last for an entire month. This is a new record as far as the length is concerend, but assuming all participants are quite skilled in reducing the number of Hulks and Macks, could it also be that the supply of targets eventually runs out in the last week? Obviously, there are plenty of Hulks and Macks around now, so you all have your work cut out for you, but isn't it a concern that mining in High-Sec will be reduced to a standstill and only the larger corps in 0.0 sec are the only ones using Hulks and whatnot, thereby making the event a lot harder as 0.0 corps have the resources available to defend their mining operations?
It would be nice if some participants would be able to respond on the matter. |

Singulis: use a Nighthawk or Kitsune with some sensor boosters and Minmatar jammers.
The gank ship of choice is a Tornado, and most Tornado fits rely on two volleys to destroy a Hulk. If you're quick you can wait cloaked in a belt, and then drop cloak and jam the ganking ship in between cycles (but after it has already fired on the miner). That way, you'll be able to jam the ganker with impunity, since he's already flagged as a criminal.
Make sure your miner is using a tank fit too, so that he survives the first volley.
If you've got a small Catalyst gang, or multiple Tornados, this strategy won't work. But it will knock out a lone wolf ganker.
Edit: your other questions.
You are never safe in highsec. Know that you can be ganked any time, in any ship, by anyone. That said: pay attention!
Did someone in a Tornado warp into your belt? You should probably leave. Is there a Tornado on your d-scanner? You should probably leave. Does someone in local have a red skull on their portrait? You should probably leave.
You're likely to be much safer in a Covetor or Retriever than a Hulk, but it depends on how smart you are. If you watch local carefully and use your d-scanner, you can mine throughout Hulkageddon without consequence. If you think mining is an excuse to go watch TV, you'll likely be losing some ships in the coming month. |

Here are your answers. Obviously Hulkageddon involves only Hulks and Macks.
Also, ask the OP for detailed details. It's her event AND thread. Helicity Boson
Getting really tired of telling everyone it is not a Goon event. Never was. They get way too much unearned credit for nonsense, please don't contribute. There isn't anything left for you to do to Carebears. -áGo, kill them some more. They're like fungus or bacteria, they won't die and they won't stop. All you have to show for years of organized harassment campaigns against them is ... nothing. |

Simple, because unlike a serial killer, hulkageddon won't go into your house (station) and kill you.
And I try to make it a point to give the savvy miners fair warning so we only catch the oblivious or willfully ignorant players. |

lol, :;deep breath:: I'm going in. What makes you think that serial killers only kill you in your home...? Most actually don't do this - I can name five just off the top of my head that never killed one person who was in their home.
