Would appear Goonswarm is back to manipulating the Oxygen Isotope market (good on them, by the way.) Mackinaw killmails are rolling in. Volume the last two days has been nearly triple the norm. And prices are 1.5x higher than they were.
Prepare. Stockpile. Invest.
Will the prices head upwards to 1400 ISK per unit, as they did last interdiction? Caldari Militia |

Correct. It was bound to swing up anyway due to the all time low. Though some exploding ships likely helped spread some panic. |

NOT POSSIBLE!!!
Ganking CAN'T be done in Eve anymore.
Mackinaws are INVULNERABLE.
      I lost countless ships and millions of isk on gank attempts. I did not blame CCP, Concord or the miner. I blamed me for bothering. I made more money.......... mining.

After all the whinage and crying that suiciding miners is no longer profitable I find it hard to believe that miners are being suicided to increase... profits.

English translation, people will afk mine ice in multiboxed Procurors.
The truth is that even if they did, they wouldn't fit tanks, they would fit for yield/cargo and would die to a suicide gank, not to mention that the cargo hold is too small to make it actually viable. Homo sapiens non urinat in ventum -á-á-á ---CCP can't patch stupid--- |

ICE procuror fits can AFK for about 30 minutes & have ~5X the eHP... will be interesting if they start popping up or if cheap retiervers replace the MACs in the ice fields

Whoever said anythng about making a profit? I'm being lazy today, so not gonna go dig up yer posts. But I'm pretty sure you were one of the ones claiming that you could no longer profit from suiciding miners. Let me know if you disagree so I can start digging a bit . |

You can thank the freighter pilots for the subsities  Also NC. So ganking Macks IS possible AND it's able to be done PROFITABLY.
I feel much better now. I was positive the horrendous angst in multiple topics, the tears, the concerns, the outrage, the rants about those stupid, stupid miners and those poor, poor gankers was all TRUE.
Phew.
Ok, thx. Resuming life as I know it. I lost countless ships and millions of isk on gank attempts. I did not blame CCP, Concord or the miner. I blamed me for bothering. I made more money.......... mining.

What's profitable is buying up all the supplies at the all-time low, and then attacking to force the price upwards ... then sell those stocks.

I seem to recall at least room for 12 ice blocks so with bonuses & a single ice rig you will have to check it every 15 to 20 minutes & it can tank to ~60k eHP.

Standard business practice, buy low then create an artificial shortage so that you can drive the price up.
An example would be a union buying up all the product of say coal mines, and then picketing the coal mines so that no more coal can be mined. While they control the supply, they control the price, OTEC & it's real world counterpart OPEC do similar things.

So you're saying that picking up horse dung is not actually profitable - but selling it for fertilizer is? I lost countless ships and millions of isk on gank attempts.

Yes you can tank a Procuror to a decent ehp, but they won't because miners can be extremely lazy. A lot of them still think that yield is better than tank, which is great until they die, then they whine about it.
I mine 'roids, in a tanked barge, go out and shipscan some of the barges at the icebelts, at least 50-75% will have no tank or a minimal one, they're relying on the recent buffs to protect them, they'll also be afk.
If James decides to extend his glorious crusade to help out the GSF, I as a shareholder in The New Order will gladly assist him.

But I'll be danged if I am going to spend the next 5 hours linking the hundreds of Goons and FA "poor ganker", "Eve is DYING" poasts on the topic. I lost countless ships and millions of isk on gank attempts. I did not blame CCP, Concord or the miner. I blamed me for bothering. I made more money.......... mining.
