Prepare. Stockpile. Invest.
Will the prices head upwards to 1400 ISK per unit, as they did last interdiction?
Time to undock with 90K EHP Skiffs. Moving my alt over there for lols and giggles

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 ore hold is too small to make it really viable. 36 minutes for 12 blocks of ice is a sizeable amount of time invested for the return even in a cheap barge like a Procuror.
Fit tank and you get almost free of ganking, they can still gank you no matter how much tank you fit but you will be less of an interesting target when there are so many lazy ones not fitting a single tank mod.

Sure you won't be getting that amazing ice yield, but instead you will bask in the glory of ganker tears and after all, can you really put a price on those?

Speaking of untanked barges, there's a thread in New Player Q&A from someone with their first barge, despite attempts to convince him to fit a tank of sorts even if it's just a DCU there is a poster saying that he shouldn't fit a tank at all, I implore some of the GSF posters here to educate the noob and especially the bad poster who is spreading misinformation.

I have an alt with a 100% full blown tanked mackinaw.
Mackinaw next to me has a faster yield, but all his ice just exploded with his ship. Profit: -200m give or take.
Me, I'm about to dock with my first load of ice. Profit: I honestly don't know, but I did scoop the T2 loot from 9 Catalyst and 3 Tornados. I would post the kill mails and chat logs after this whole Pay attention to us!!! nerd rage event is over. The chat logs will have to be heavily censored though. Those gankers have an interesting vocabulary when they are mad.
Thanks gankers!

Another Mackinaw dead next to me. He is in an NPC corp and has yet to warp off.
/scoops Mackinaw loot
I'll worry about him coming back in a PvP ship when he wakes up.

If you are losing your mack to 2x suicide catalysts... you are fitting it poorly, and I have no sympathy for you. You can easily fit a solid tank (35k+) with a modest yield...
If you want to fit for max yield, then you risk getting suicide ganked... The choice is yours... and CCP should not hold your hand and protect you anymore than they already have!!!

Thanks.
The gankers always say we are 'stupid' for not tanking 100%.
For me, it's RISK vs REWARD. Not stupidity.
And I will almost always fit for max yield.
...and not been blown up while mining in over 1yr, 8 months.
Those miners who do get exploded are AFK, period. |

I'm not a highsec ganker.... and I'll admit I occasionally mine in highsec on my indy alt....
It's 100% about risk vs reward. I fit a decent tank on my exhumer, and have never lost it despite half a dozen attempts on it (although I definitely would have if I didn't tank it!). If you can mine safely, without tanking it... good for you....
If you really accept the risk when NOT tanking your ship, then you won't whine and cry and complain about OP suicide gankers if you are ganked, because you'll realize it was your choices that enabled them to gank you! |

For 20m, I'll tell you were he mines. Miners should not be THIS stupid.
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.

Today's "Duh" Note for readers: The same laziness that gankers and forum warriors attribute to "AFK" miners can be found in gankers, too. Get out of the mission and trade hubs, and actually take 2 minutes to find a safe place to operate. You're just about guaranteed a safer existence as a miner. lrn2eve |

Back to the cheap fuel.
Crime watch is on the way. A high Sec POS to annoy the locals would be a lot easier with 400 ISK topes but you insist on this?

Both now about each other alt high sec mining/industrial/mission/trading/hauling corporations. So at some point yes, it's high sec CTA witch is hilarious and gets even better when you think about crimewatch and kill rights, this is just HILARIOUS

Whoever said anythng about making a profit?
A profit might be possible. Consider this:
gank every miner except your own, be the only one mining the resource. Profit?
So it might have been lucrative to just gank the miners and have a stockpile of the targeted resource already at hand, and then sell it at a higher price. The cost of ganking now might offset that, but the hull buff may have now required that the gankers harvest the resources themselves.
This is my theory or assumption. They might just be trying to see if it's possible.
