The only people calling it "1337 PVP" are the miners complaining about it.
Adults use English, and would call it "Elite PvP" but then, nobody but the more literate miners call it that.
Nobody claims that Suicide Ganking is Elite PvP, as shooting at people who have chosen to intentionally disarmed themselves is pretty easy. That ease is because those people have chosen not to arm themselves.
Since nobody you argue against calls ganking "Elite (or any variation on that word) PvP," trying to paint us as having done so is what we call a Straw Man. -RubyPorto

Didn't say you had to mine in a Rokh either. You can choose to mine in any ship with turret slots or a Drone bay (or any mining barge/exhumer).
Again, how is someone forcing you to mine, and if you can show that someone's forcing you to mine, how are they forcing you to use a Hulk?
I've been manufacturing for a profit for quite a while, and I haven't owned a Hulk (let alone mined) for some 2+ years. -RubyPorto

Let's put it this way: How many level 4 missions you have to run to build one BC hull? How many hours you have to mine to build one BC hull?
Maybe 2-4 missions. It's been a while, but that's about how many missions it takes to make 70m isk. Then go to Jita and buy the minerals and make the BC.
Longer than it takes to run 4 missions.

You can mine in any ship that has a Drone Bay or a Turret slot.
Why do you manufacture? If it's not for ISK (or to save yourself the impression of spending ISK buying it off the market), then why does it matter how quickly it gets built?

Still don't see anyone forcing you to use that Hulk. Do you use Rifter often to mine minerals needed for freighter? What I meant was that I don't mine and then sell ore/materials like some miners do. Should I trash everything instead?
You didn't answer my question.

See the word "If" right there? That's the beginning of a suppositional phrase.
If you're not manufacturing for ISK, then it doesn't matter how fast you can gather materials. If you're doing it for sale, and you're mining to collect the materials, you are, in fact, mining for ISK.

Nothing's forcing them to use a Tengu either. They're choosing to use it for increased income.
The Tengu has downsides as well. For instance, many active fit Tengus have such little EHP coming out of gate cloak that they can be one shotted by a Nado.
You claimed you didn't mine for ISK. That means you don't mine for your income.

You seem to be confusing your free choice to mine with someone forcing you to do so. Have you ever tried to build a freighter by using only reprocessed mission loot? Do you know how many units of tritanium you need to build a freighter?
No I have not. That would be kind of silly. It would be a kind of oddly impressive accomplishment though. Yes, I do. About 102m units (ME5 Charon BPC). You can buy that amount in Jita off of sell orders for a little under 700m (though you're not likely to make much money if you buy minerals off of sell orders instead of setting up buy orders).
That said, I don't see how this is at all relevant to your refusal to explain who's forcing you to mine and why they also want you in a Hulk.
Oh, and where did I say:

It takes around 5 months of mission running to get enough tritanium for Charon if you run missions 6 hours a day and loot everything. Guess how long it takes in Hulk? Want to guess how long it takes in Rifter?
During that 5 months running missions for 6 hours a day, you will, conservatively, make 45 Billion ISK. Surely you can spend some of that on 700m Isk worth of Trit from Jita.
You still haven't shown how anyone's forcing you to mine, let alone forcing you to use a Hulk.

Probably best if you continue just mining that Tech. Pilot with perfect skills and 3% Highwall implant: Full cycle of 8 MDCMIIs mines 3500 m3 (heavily rounded) of ore Rokh's cargohold: 625 m3 Mining yield is 5,6 times bigger than Rokh's cargohold. Because you get bonuses from Orca pilot who doesn't have mindlink one cycle is 141s. So you're going to move ore from your cargohold to Orca's hangars or can every 25s or so. Actually even more often because you have to do that after every time laser cycles and you have 8 of those. Use three Rokhs and you hav 24 lasers. I give you 1 million if you can post a video you mining with three Rokhs for 3 hours. And 1 million bonus if you don't have to get professional help after that.
You realize that Mining barges didn't exist for the first year+ of EVE, right? It is a Tanky mining ship. If you prefer an untanked mining ship because it's easier, that's your choice.

The Damnation is also an option. One of its advantages is that it's not worthwhile to gank under most circumstances.

When I suicide gank, I do it for a combination of profit and entertainment. As I've yet to find someone mining in a Damnation, the fun involved in searching for one seems minimal, and of course, when there's 50 untanked Hulks between me and finding a mining Damnation, profit's better when ganking hulks.

"I don't want them to have the toy, but I'm too lazy to do anything about it" is not a reasonable position.
If your enemies can field 14,000 people united in one purpose at the same time, they've put in a lot of work to make it happen. Why should it be easy to take their stuff away if they're willing to get 14,000 people (the amount of people in a real military Division) working together at the same time, as you claim?

You're a troll and you don't know how many EVE player are out there. Usually peak is around 45k characters online. Most of these characters are in your tech cartel. So, how do you think it would be even possible? Of course you don't think it's possible because you've made it impossible.
Last count there are 361k active subscriptions to EVE. The members of the CFC and the rest of OTEC account for some 40k of them (call it 60k, I cba to actually look it up).
That leaves 300 THOUSAND accounts for you to recruit from. That's some 85% of the population up for you to lead.
By the by, there have never been any fights where any side has had 14,000 people on the field as you claim. Like i said, your numbers are laughably wrong as always. EvE: Everyone vs Everyone |

Because people aren't online 24/7. Neither are CFC/OTEC members.
If you're too lazy to take Tech, that's fine. You have every right not to bother. But you can't then claim that it's impossible. All of the current holders of Tech took it from somebody else. They all did this well after the Tech buff. EvE: Everyone vs Everyone |

There are 360k Subs. PCU is like 40k. Ergo, people aren't online 24/7

Prove that the average Eve player has 5 Subscriptions.
Look, a little tip if you're going to be moving the goalposts all the time. Try to get them somewhere where you can actually score. EvE: Everyone vs Everyone |

I did. Unless the average Eve Player has 9 accounts, a PCU of 40k for 360k means some people are not online all the time (assuming that the PCU is also the minimum number of people online).
Looking at a chunk of time after DT, the number of people online is around 20k. If every person is online 24/7 as you claim, then the minimum CU count is the total number of people, the number of required average accounts is 18. EvE: Everyone vs Everyone |

I meant the "you can take those moons from QTEC with Falcon alts" thing.
I said "It is not impossible to take Tech Moons" as evidenced by people taking Tech Moons as the NC (the previous Tech cartel) fell.
I don't accept the premise that 300k Accounts (Accounts, not Character slots) are only Falcon and Research Alts. EvE: Everyone vs Everyone |
