If there is one thing that CCP has made abundantly clear, it's that they support the idea of nobody being 100% safe. Both their actions (playing with CONCORD response times, removing insurance on gank ships but stopping well short of prohibiting it) and their words (Jon Lander describing the Burn Jita event as "******* brilliant"). Keeping this front row and center is of paramount importance. Never let some ablooblooing just-lost-*MY HULK* baby say otherwise without throwing that right back into their deceitful, pathetic faces. |

There's really not much point even asking a whiny Hulk pilot what their definition of PVP is - at the end of the day, no matter what words they choose to say it, the definition is going to be "something that doesn't let you shoot me". |

2. Who gains from hulks being ganked ? at the end of the chain the Hulk BPO owners...so who owns them ?
1. Take a look at the gnashing of teeth just from ANNOUNCING he was going to continue payouts. Making people explode with self-righteous rage is one of the conerstones of what makes Eve great. Burn Jita and Hulkageddon and other such things are just extensions of that.
2. Anyone who produces Hulk hulls, T2 strips, MLU's, and very rarely shield tank mods benefit directly, as does anyone who produces T1/T2 blasters, Magstabs, Catalyst hulls, etc. Gankers benefit because it's fun, we benefit because watching people rage is fun, non-stupid miners benefit due to less competition. Even the gankee might benefit if they decide to try to do something about the loss (tank the Hulk, mine in a different place, mine in a different ship, etc). The only true losers are the babies who insist they have some inherent right to mine in a very expensive full-yield-fit hull wherever they want with complete safety from any kind of threat. |

Fine, for Mr. Pedant here, go ahead and add "anyone who supplies components to build any of the products I listed above". Yes, that includes Technetium holders (among many, many others). Congratulations, you've solved the puzzle!
We'd still do this even if there was 0 tech in Hulks, btw. Selling more Tech is a happy side benefit. |
