In celebration of the 4th of July, Jihad Squad's fleet of glorious martyr Catalysts descended upon infidel miners in Sinq L. in an effort to finally rid the region of bots and terrible carebears alike. We also hoped to finally receive our 72 virgins.
One set of mindless fools we came about were two completely untanked Hulks, mining within 1km of eachother. They were quickly dispatched in hilarious fashion as can be seen here:
Infidel 1
Infidel 2
Believing that painting the asteroids with the blood of those who defile them would serve as a good enough warning, we left the area for awhile. Several hours later, after drinking far too much alcohol (we aren't exactly very devout Jihadists) our scout wandered back to look for more targets to hit. And there they were...the two same people in brand new Hulks, 1km from eachother. This time they actually had shield hardeners on at least. Thinking that they might be using something far more sturdy, like faction Invuls, we added one more member of our Mujahideen to the fleet and killed them both...again.
Infidel 1
Infidel 2
1 Billion ISK worth of Hulks from the same people in a single day. The idiocy was almost as staggering as the profit: 135mil worth of T2 salvage & loot. When miners have to ask why they are hated so much, one only has to look at their behavior.

Infidel 1 & 2 in the "Chapter 1" are the same kill. Might want to edit for full bragging.

That is rather sad. If I had just lost a Hulk, I would at least fit a tank next time... |

To their credit, they did tank them the second time around...sorta. One would think that a person with even a modicum of intelligence would've added me to their watchlist and said unto themselves, "You know, maybe today isn't a great day to mine afk."

And yet another mouthbreather that I ganked no more than 2 days ago lost his Hulk again...plus his nearly 800mil pod. God has been gracious to our Mujahideen. Clearly, this is his will.
Hi! I'm with...
Stupid!
Also, Concord was already in the belt. They could not stop us. I got off nearly 7 volleys and got the pod before I was martyred. Allahu Akbar. Video will be posted this weekend.

Why are you not out ganking freighters? The miner ganking is getting old and you won't be able to do it much longer anyways from what's been shown with the new battleship tanks on most mining barges.
Start ganking freighters and save up your iskies.

Some barges will be buffed to near-BS EHP levels at the cost of mining-yield.
The Hulk, apparently, will not be one of these, and there will always be more dumb, inattentive people who think that those Cattis landing on-grid are there to share their mining--after all, you're "safe" in hisec, and "protected" by CONCORD, right?
Or, as the estimable Paul Clavet used to put it:

Bots will use the Hulk. Players wanting to be bots will use the Retriever. Nobody will use the Skiff - the one with the battleship tank. These Jihadists won't get bored. |

Yep! Hence the term 'Suicide Gank', kill them before the Concordettes get you. |

Yes, but our fearless Mujahideen is prepared to be martyred in order to uphold the fatwa against infidel miners. Our holy Jihad has nothing to do with the secular, "Hulkageddon".

these same miners that easily get ganked are only concerned about YIELD - yield above all, or maybe as in this case AFK-ability. hulk will still have the best yield and will still be used. cargo exanders and cargo rigs will still be used even though it kills your armor HP. if these miners arent going to sacrifice yield for tank with fittings now, why would they sacrifice a yield hull for a tank hull? |

i agree with what you said here but would like to add that i envision the skiff's future place in mining ops to be ninja mining sov space, low sec and WHs. the high EHP, the lower mass and most likely lower engage warp speed would make it ideal for riskier mining endeavors. (hopefully it stays cheap too) |

If I had just lost a Hulk, I would go mine in a Covetor next time. Less ISK lost if it gets ganked again, and the Insurance payout is almost the same as the Covetor's market-price anyway. |

If you're at least partially paying attention to your mining, you can use the scanner to avoid wasting a full cycle mining the last 100 ore out of a rock. Strip miners are one of the few mods in the game that can be shut off and restarted mid-cycle. An attentive miner can actually get quite a bit more yield when mining smaller rocks.
edit: In other words, it's a yield increase for active miners. It's hard to fit four tank mods in the mids anyway, no reason not to have a survey scanner if it fits.
It's time to put an end to CCP's war on piracy. Fight your own battles and stop asking CCP to do it for you. |

The Hulk is not receiving BS EHP. Despite the smaller barges getting EHP buffs, people will still fly Hulks for max yield & they will still get blown up. |

I don't understand, why do ppl hate miners?
Why would people hate miners and not the angry, no-life, butthurt babies who take their frustration out on random ppl to make them feel good about themselves?
I would think it would be more natural to hate those who are so happy about the fact that they got to annoy someone, or pity them at least. |

thats what I thought but OP wrote that.

Their behavior shows that they were so un-phased by such OP efforts that they returned right back to mining, in the same spot even.
Its somewhat ironic that so many who ganks a miner or flips a can does it in the belief he is incurring rage and tears and all that when their beliefs are merely a projection of what their own reaction would be. People with no-life who are frustrated, angsty and butthurt at the world tend to do this kind of stuff because they want to share a little bit of what they are feeling all the time.
pretty amazing is the tard logic these kids come up with to justify their actions. Like scammers trying to distance themselves from their actions by claiming their victims are inferior to them, and somehow deserve it. |
