It's not a scam, we actually earn loads on the opt-out programs because we're very good at managing the whitelist--who wouldn't want to earn money just for NOT killing somebody?
I hope you'll excuse me if I brag a little here, but we've built a Goonfleet Hulkageddon Opt Out Program infrastructure that puts to shame our previous opt-out programs--all YOU'd need to do is add an extra tab labelled Opt Out informing folks that it's an option should they want it =D
Why, here's some sample text you could use for that tab:
Goons love player-driven events, and Goons love fun! However, we understand that PvP is not a universal pursuit within the EVE community. Therefore we give YOU, the miners, the heart of the EVE economy the opportunity to "opt out" from this historic event.
What does Opting out do?
Opting out from the Hulkacaust will give the opt out-er several rights:
Mining Immunity
Goonfleet will have many, many fleets out hunting hulks and such throughout New Eden during the event, but miners are not just killed indiscriminately! By opting out you will be automatically flagged for safe passage wherever you would lay your mining laser, allowing YOU to serve the greater good of EVE economy.
Reimbursement
Whilst you will be safe from Goonswarm members directly, we cannot always control our 0.0 associates. We understand that mistakes will be made, and, as always, we are ready to put our isk where our avatars are or whatever. Therefore, in the unlikely case of pilot error we offer FULL reimbursement on your hull, fitting AND cargo (providing, of course, an API verified killmail). One of the more popular features of our Jita Opt Out Program was our "Right of Return Serve", where opt-out-ers who were mistakenly shot would be provided the opportunity to kill and pod their killers--we regret to inform the EvE community that this will not be available for the Hulkageddon event because the logistics of it would just be far too difficult with the killings so widespread. Instead, we have decided that reimbursement payments to the Shot-Opted will be extracted from the wallets of the dim jerk-o-matic who shot a character on the whitelist--how's that for some Street Justice?
Applying to the opt-out program
Applications to the opt-out program are handled exclusively by a team of Reimbursement Officers organized just for this event--speak to any Goonfleet personnel to be directed towards an Officer. After you have been processed your pilots will be added to the opt-out list and will be cleared for asteroid access anywhere in the entirety of New Eden --you could fly your exhumer to VFK during Hulkageddon and you can't be touched (although you might have some trouble getting it out if you leave it there past June)
Fly safe! |
