The entire point is that miners haven't done anything to earn this buff. As I said earlier an appropriate buff would be purely to the fitting stats of the ships, not their EHP. Buffing the fitting stats would allow them to fit a respectable tank without too much sacrifice to yield, but no, we can't even help miners help themselves, we have to do everything for them!

The hard work of Moon Goo is fighting to keep it.

Waaa waaaaa were going to have a harder time ganking like the l33t pvpers waaaaaaa. Wanna kill people? Go to lowsec or nullsec

Insurance fraud was taken away not because of hi sec kills but because, like boomerang, it started being used in an heavily mass, industrialized way. You can find on MD the guy (Cosmoray) who made 100B+ by manufacturing thousands of battleships and exploding them.

He started a trend, with a NPC endless ISK faucet, he posted about it and how to do it and then nobody would stop what was basically legal ISK duping. CCP intervened and removed it.

Same for boomerang, for years it was used with a brain and not spammed on the forums and CCP let it go. Then a very intelligent guy started talking about it on GD and made tutorials so droves of emulators started doing it. CCP intervened and removed it.

Same for orca ships "saving". Once again, tolerated for a long time till somebody "smart" decided to make it very public and spammable by every ganker. CCP intervened and removed it.


Don't blame hi seccer targets for the grave hi seccer gankers dug by themselves.

if you think that PvP should be restricted to low/null, you should just go back to one of the themepark games where your hand is held throughout the ~experience~ and you can succeed in the equivalent of a shield-tanking laser megathron

Yeah they should have gone around in topless with some slogans and then all to mine Jita state's face!

CCP have to move goals because emergent players like your corp find new and creative ways to do stuff more and more efficiently (also see the FW LP affair) and they feel like they have to counter them to keep the game under control.

Feel free to disagree of course, but in order to be relevant you'd need at least to become a relevant CCP stake holder.

okay the second question was a bit of a **** move considering that it's terribly inconclusive, but if it it died to one catalyst then i somehow doubt that it had its hardeners on

did it predate crucible? did it have its hardeners running? did it have an obscene number of ships on its killmail? was it at war with the dudes who killed it?

"Tanked Hulk can't be ganked" is what you nullbears keep saying.

This is a bad change and it stands on the objective fact that it essentially nerfs intelligent gameplay (read: tanking your miner) and rewards lazy, stupid gameplay (going AFK with a max-yield mining barge fitting absolutely no tank).
