I never realized how dumb highsec miners were until i started to help gank them with my gang. No tank, no rep support, some even only fit 2 strip miners on hulks.

Burn them all.

Dear oh dear.

It looks like we have made a mess!

Remember boys and girls, for the rest of the month you get paid 100million isk for every 10 killing blows!
And if you're particularly deadly, you might win some awesome prizes!

Love,

H.B.

No tank that can possibly be fit on a Hulk stands a chance against a suicide ganker and friends. So why bother at all? In the end, the Hulk that fit for mining vs tanking; the mining fit will have netted a far better yield compared to the tanked Hulk.

Of course the best tank to fit on a Hulk is making sure the system in the top left of your screen does not say anything higher than 0.4 for security.

I thought you're not really this dumb, but you changed.

I check the tears section of your website every day Helicity... I am really sad that you have received no tears yet to publish :(

Keep an eye on the player count. The numbers are going down compared to last week. Use it as a tear-o-meter if you like or to measure your success.

Drag The Carebears Into The Actual Game Kicking And Screaming Like Children Every Day.

You've got that wrong. You and yours are like any numbers of people who lash out at others when you don't get enough attention. You're not making people do anything for their own benefit. You're merely preying upon miners because they can't shoot back and you're too pathetic to find real fights.

Well, you have to remember, according to carebears, they run the economy, control resources, the means of production, and the market, essentially making them our pimps. And as we all know, pimps don't cry.

Thousand dead hulks in two days, last big announcement like that in the last Wankageddon-circlejerkforsocialcoolfactor was what....1000 dead hulks in like a week? Why is that...could it be that a buffed destroyer class particularly with hybrids is far easier to throw away then a battleship when its no longer insurable. Naw, it couldn't be because that becaue the battleship cost more then the destroyer but a player is willing to throw away a few million more so then a hundred million...bet it would be fking awesome to see dudes throw faction battleships while they are sitting in their basment command centers downing Hotpockets, Cheetos, and Mountain Dew but that would never happen *whispers* because humans are inherently risk adverse so you will never see them hurt themselves so long as the other guy takes a bigger loss and it makes the first guy's ego feel better.

Real care-bears, you are fighting the wrong target!

High-sec is less reward with more enemies and greater risks than 0.0 ever was.


edit; don't believe me? take a covert ops into 0.0 cloak and watch local clear out while you watch a movie.

I mined 3 Orca's of Veld yesterday, refined it, and sold in Rens.

You can guess how.

You are getting the Idiots who don't think, and I thank you. They are an embarrassment to the profession.

I love seeing the ridicu-fits on the blasted Hulks. Shield Re-chargers ? REALLY ? Cargohold Expanders on a Hulk with an Orca sitting right there. REALLY ?

see, even you are starting to understand

You and yours are more like those kids that bring assault rifles to their highschool to "show the world" that you're hardcore.

Stop with the BS, really. Someone who says otherwise is the person who never lived in 0.0 mining and doing PVE.

The people that quit because of this were never going to be long term players. Eve is really not a game for people that cannot bounce back from a loss.

Helicity is performing a public service to all of us that have a violent alergy to stupidity.

If you consider less players playing Eve a success you are literally a terrorist, and IMHO, a total douche also.

The former is fact, latter opinion.

I have done both, and these days I make my ISK missioning in 0.0 and hi-sec

Hi sec is about 100x safer.

Somone ran the numbers and its true a yestertech hulk cannot withstand mordern day military equipment.

What gets me though is why are htey still using tech 2 ships when tech 1s are infinitly cheaper in this time.

It must bother you a bit that mittani stole your event out from under you. I bet next year you won't even get a mention.

Mr Epeen

Public service.....that's laughable. No. Helicity is only doing what any good rabble rouser does, pander to the lowest dredges to take advantage of the weakest of any society.

Actually this is very true. Looks like we may (that's an important word, Flamers) not even hit 40,000 today.

Lets see, despite all the whining we still crested over 50k on Sunday. That sure doesn't sound like people have been discouraged from logging in due to the Burn Jita event.

Yeah. I mean, it's only like a thousand of them in two days. no big deal.

You just go do your missions now, it'll be fine.

For once, mining in low sec is actually preferable to high sec.
Equal chances of getting ganked with slightly higher reward potential if you don't.

I am extremely disappointed that there is no Opt Out For 200m Isk link on the Hulkageddon page.

You already get a high reward from mining, if you are lucky you get to keep your ship, that equates to over 300m reward no?

I'm not much for scamming really.

I know right, how weird is that. I never steal the billions and billions of prize money either :(

I fail at piracy.

Sure thing, as long as you grab one and start mining in G-0Q.

We'll see who lasts longest, shall we?

1. you take her lunch money
2. then you kick her
3. now you take pictures of her bleeding at the ground
4. and finally you distribute these pictures on the forums and tell her how stupid she was leaving her house

I do not think one of these words means what you think it means.

An abiding characteristic is the indiscriminate use of violence against noncombatants for the purpose of gaining publicity for a group, cause, or individual. The symbolism of terrorism can leverage human fear to help achieve these goals.

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






Applying to the opt-out program

Sure thing, as long as you grab one and start mining in G-0Q.

We'll see who lasts longest, shall we?

Sounds good to me. I was actually there about three weeks ago and before I entered the system everyone had docked/cloaked/POS'd/logged before I even loaded the jump in grid. So what has changed that you are not telling me?

In all seriousness, you know damn well mining anywhere besides high sec is safer. So stop playing stupid. I shouldn't have to go into great detail why with you.

What I am doing is literally the same as blowing up children on a bus. You heard it here first people!

Perspective. You lack it.

If you can't do it yourself you should ask mittens for help.

He's a lawyer after all.

Then you are sincerely ******* below average intelligence.

since 0.0 is so safe and it has the best ores why aren't you all mining there

hmm?

I feel bad now. Can I stop there?

The Hulk is a Null Sec industry ship anyway. They do not belong in High Security Empire space.
Not trolling, I really think that.

Please make Hulkageddon a monthly contest with monthly winners and an ongoing interdiction,,, I have a Domi fit for mining and as soon as I get my Orca alt I will be able to pull nearly 1k a minute mining in high sec space....

Push the Exhumers to Null... leave the high sec mining for mining cruisers, barges and the occasional oddly fit Battleship.

I don't need "attention". Goons don't need attention. Pirates don't need attention. We just have fun killing hi-sec miners. It's really fun, and it's easy to justify. After all, what kind of sad person pays $15/mo or PLEX to shoot laser beams at space rocks in a video game?

Have to gate camp=boring

have friends and thus already joined a corp, did not buy themselves entry into goons

Does not want to be a drone and come of work every single day to have a psychopathic child with autism order them around.

I feel bad now. But I am glad to continue to explain how sad you guys are!

I'm not a miner, nor I care to be. But don't you brainless monkeys that participates in this hulkaggedon think at all? Goon is playing everyone. Why do you think they are paying for you to kill miners? I would say that it's only because they want to be the only miners left. Then, when every single miner is away from his client doing any other thing, goon will be mining their ***** off to get the only ore everyone is going to see for some time. This will make the ships you id**ts fly way too expensive. And since it seems you don't think at all, you'll be buying it on the highest price possible, making the only intelligent people(who ever is behind) richier and richier.
Seriously, why don't you go and pick up a real fight? I heard Reds and Blues are in a constant war. So do it! Stop playing on others hand.
Well, since I think you won't be able to think on this at all, because you are too stu**d to do it, I hope CCP would do something real fast so that EvE don't get to be an abandoned game and have to go to Free to Play model.

WT

lol tinfoil hats

technetium is literally 70% of a hulk

That's what I'm talking about...
It's not the hulk that matters. It's the ore that comes from them...
Is it that hard to think?

Token care bear speaking

years ago I used to mine for my bread. Man am I glad I got out of the business. small profits, more dangerous than lvl 4 missions,

Who is Helicity Boson?

Is she an underling of The Mittani? (i only ask as hulkaggeddon kills are on a Goonswarm killboard)

If she is then good work on the Burn Jita campaign but you could have kicked off Hulkaggeddon yourself Mittans instead of having an unknown flunkie do it for you.

I would agree that suicide ganking is comparable to terrorism.

But Hulkageddon comes with fair warning and no surprise (for most players).

Did they give fair warning before 9/11 ??

I didn't think so.

THAT's terrorism.

Have both the decency and intelligence to read what I write if you wish to reply.

Nope. I agree with what Abdiel said ("I don't think that word means what...."), not you. You are also just shiptoasting.

Yup, my 2 Billion a week with mining, PI, Missions, and Manufacturing BY MYSELF (we are all independent in Corp) and a few other odds and ends, is just so pathetic.

You have no clue what you speak of TBH.

You guys do realize that you are basically fracking yourselves in the face by killing miners right?

If you have no clue, then all the minerals, ships, modules, ammo on the market are there because of those miners who actually are bothered to do that boring job most players don't. There are no magical NPC sellers selling minerals, ships or modules. Everything comes from those carebears.

You guys are the ones who pay more and more each time you buy a ship or module because there is fewer and fewer supply for minerals for manufacturers to build. Then there are those geniuses who wonder why mineral market is unstable.

Actually it is a pretty nice plan. Let the zombies compete each other for killing miners. Mineral, module, ship etc. prices rise. Organizers or people of interest (goons?) start selling their stockpile. Related somehow with Jita Burning event? (mad conspiracy theory)

Reminds me of real life where average citizen is a body chasing the carrot on a stick attached on his head in front of him.

Just saying

I never realized how dumb highsec miners were until i started to help gank them with my gang. No tank, no rep support, some even only fit 2 strip miners on hulks.

Burn them all.

So, mineral prices have remained constant, and suicide-ganking has always existed. What does this tell you, oh mighty armchair economist?

That you have no clue what you are talking about.

if you want to pretend your vanity corp is not a vanity corp don't make all the names similar dude

Of course we know. Do you think we're stupid?

We just. don't. care :)

So this year is a bit different because the goons are helping to sponsor it, I'm more surprised its take this long for them to do it then the fact they have gotten involved.

I'm sure they will be making isk out of it, so what?

Eve is a sandbox, the only limitation is your imagination.

I might not agree with everything the goons do or say, but I will give them a massive amount of credit for making New Eden a more interesting place to live in and for playing the game the way they want to play it.

So, either STFU or do something to stop them, either way all bitching on the forums does makes for a happy goon.

Keep an eye on the player count. The numbers are going down compared to last week. Use it as a tear-o-meter if you like or to measure your success.

Haven't got me yet. Just takes a few precautions, is all.
My hulk survived the ice interdiction, and it'll survive this. It does help that I rarely undock it, though.

Still. Go, blow up my competitors. Increase demand for my goods. I'm not gonna bawl on the forums over it. Just sit quietly in the back, letting the ISK roll in.
And hell, mineral prices are starting to go up in places after the post-drone-nerf drop of people unloading stashes. I'll just have to run mining ops afterwards.

WRONG!

first you take her lunch money. THEN you kick her.

Do I need to teach you people everything?

Wait...what?

There are goons capable of kicking a 10-year old girl and actually doing damage?

Huh.

I am no Goon good sir.

So is it extended til August yet?

Well, you can also kick her first, THEN take her lunch money. She's less likely to make loud noises and alert people nearby if she can't breathe

Needs more Orca tears.

Just a small question. Shouldn't a successful Hulkageddon make mineral prices go up ? I see them going down, What gives ?

I am no Goon good sir.

Wanna be Goon then... whatever youd prefer to be called

How comes that still there are no prizes for most Orca kills / smartbomb kills?

How comes there's only one tear?

Lazy we are?

I detect

U want EZ Orkaz 2 ?

Or is sarcasm and irony running so thick it's indistinguishable from reality ?

Dude, I am mining in a BS and having quite fun in a system where nobody has ganked a single Hulk yet.

And i have one of my glorious hunches about Hulkageddon V: It's going to be the very reason why there will not be a Hulkageddon VI.

It's too long, Helicity is too uninvolved, the Goons are overtaking it for one of their one-time pranks... it's wasted. Burned out. Helicity already is thinking to not carry out Hulkageddon VI, and this thought will mature unti he eventually hands out the event to other hands.

This is the last Hulkageddon.

Hulkageddon will only die when Eve dies :P It may be in different forms but it will never die :P

So which is it?

I noticed Hulk sales are dropping. Isn't this supposed to boost tech sales?

Event isn't even a challenge anymore also ganking a untanked/defenseless ship is only comical the first couple times. Why not actually get creative and challenging and see how many mission runners you can gank. Then again those who get into these events aren't looking for a challenge.

Then again those who get into these events aren't looking for a challenge.

You know, we're actually doing those miners a favour by ganking them.

Explain the nature of this 'favo(u)r". Or is this just hot air wafting across The Pond in the wrong direction for a change.....................

We're killing off the competition, smart miners will benefit from less competition (for a while at least) and that is always to their favour.

How long or much, well that's hard to tell to be frank.

Ah the irony.

Yet at the same time your shooting yourself in the foot, since competition drives down prices, which means your ships, mods, and ammo would be cheaper. Ah the irony.

Tears > 2-20 mil. increase in ship costs.

One of the biggest complaints coming from nullsec and low sec is the lack of fights and peoples risk aversion. So while a increase in ship cost might not be much to you, it might be to others who are now unwilling to fight because of the increase in cost. As I said earlier, Its like shooting yourself in the foot, then turning around and complaining that your foot hurts.
