Originally by: Nacho Daddy There is one way to legitimize this and show its not a scam. Have the hired Merc corp post the contract and the kills for the goons. Otherwise people will just think this is a scam as has been posted.
I intend to do so. I am in the interviewing stages at the moment. Once I hire out the merc group I will have them come here to give specifics on when the wardec starts. They will give there killboard link as well.
What I am also going to ask is if they can on occation link to a cropped pic of the people they are about to kill. (What you see when the ship you are killing has red showing in shields/armor and hull and about to explode) It would be really nice to see these gasebags name and ship going down!

Things I have learned from this topic:
1) Use a neutral freighter to move a stockpile of thoraxes to my chosen system. 2) Create an instant undock bookmark from that system's station. 3) Stay docked until my neutral scout finds a hulk. 4) Continue ganking hulks in the midst of a pubbie nerd-rage wardec.

It's a good thing that a billion isk a week won't be hurting anybody's bottom line. In all honesty, though, I encourage you to do this because it'll be pretty uplifting to our morale to see you ****ing money away while we continue to gank your mining ships.

Reposted as alternative to obvious scam:
As more miners get ganked, and either stop mining or raise their prices to cover the risk, mineral prices will rise. Consequently so will ship prices. As ship prices rise, suiciding becomes less profitable. Soon an equilibrium is reached where the marginal cost of suiciding a ship becomes greater than the expected reward of ganking a hulk.
If ship prices don't rise, then it implies that either:
(1) This latest escapade while creating a lot of forum tears, is insignificant in the greater EvE economy.
(2) That hi-sec miners are't as vital to that economy as some of them are claiming.
(3) Both of the above.
For those miners pinning their hopes on an "Alliance P" style nerf, remember that it took CCP 6 months to do that.
Mal's advice: stop crying to CCP because you don't understand (or just plain won't accept) that YOUR SHIP IS AT RISK THE INSTANT YOU UNDOCK, and take the very minimal steps required to protect yourself.
If people can successfully and profitably mine in 0.0, with no CONCORD, no faction police and not even security penalties for attackers, then how in the name of all things fail can you guys not manage it in empire which has all of those advantages.
Jesus here's one I'll throw out for free:
USE THEIR OWN TECHNIQUES AGAINST THEM.
You can create a reasonable T1 cruiser combat alt in a couple of weeks (thorax, blackbird, rupture, rifter, kestrel, punisher, whatever ships are cheap and effective). Create an NPC miners intel channel, and put your alts into a new corp. Have that corp wardec goonswarm. Scour hi-sec for goon noobs and haulers and goonswarm them right back.
Insure your cruisers so they're 'free'. (In fact you can mine the minerals for the ships and the mods, so you will make a profit every time you lose one - double win! You don't need skills, you don't need tactics, you don't need to be very good at PvP: you just need numbers. Fly around in mobs of 30-50+.
There are thousands of hi-sec miners - at least as many as goonswarm has active players - and you're all in empire, whereas the majority of goons are in 0.0. Your locust-horde of disposable T1 cruiser alts could scour empire clean of goons in a few days: they'll either have to withdraw from empire or break off from fighting BoB & co. If they do come to empire in force, no problem: every time you lose a ship, you're making a profit anyway, and if they really kick your ass, just dock up and don't log your combat alt. Properly fitted combat ships are much too expensive to suicide so you can probably go back to mining - just have a few scouts in cloakers keep an eye on the goon fleets and relay their position to your intel channel. If goons disperse to start ganking your mining ships, dock up and log your mineswarm alts again and kill them in brutally unfair 50 vs 7 fights.
Let me repeat: you would not need lots of PvP skillpoints - goons have proved that. You would not need to be very experienced - goons have proved that. You would not care about losses of disposable, insured, T1-fitted frigates and cruisers - goons have proved that. You only need numbers and the will to close, lock, point and fire - goons have proved that.
CONCORD provide consequences, not safety; only you can do that. |

You miss one important point. (Well actually two)
1. Miners like to mine not do PvP. That is how they enjoy Eve. 2. Miners sit for hours in a know easily found location and Goonies will not.
You fail.

I fight or watch local or align to safety so my ships don't get suicided in empire, and I fail? I was amused to run a hauler with ~5000m^3 of T2 mods out of Jita yesterday and see the famed kestrel gankgang. I can only assume my reputation for failing protected me, as my hauler was not molested. Details like agility rigs, T2 speed mods, low lag overview settings and so forth were purely irrelevant and of course fail.
That's the kind of fail that has 10.2 digits in my wallet and dozens of fitted ships in my hangar. Actually, I'm pretty happy to fail like that.
Yet another aspect of my fail is that I dare to post with my main.

Now this actually is a good idea but modified.
If enough isk is generated have the merc corp find out which alt corps the gasbags use for industrial moving/mining and wardec them. This will hamstring their logistics in making isk and moving mins to 0.0 to build ships.
How about it BoB? Send some isk this way and we'll do this too.

You can't wardec NPC corps, buddy.
Also, I only speak on my behalf when I say this, but I don't suicide on miners for profit, I do it for tears. If it cost me ten million isk every time I did it, I would go rat ten million isk, come back, and do it again.

If you were clever little industrialists you would be capitalizing on the sudden demand for ice products instead of whining about your hulks.
And besides, goons have been without a source of tears since LV died, do you really expect them to stop because of some little empire merc corp?
In summary, you're doing it wrong. furthermore,

I personally think a combination of Malcannis' and TeddyBr's techniques is the way to go.
Yes, CareBearSwarm should be done - at the low end gangs of 30-50 disposable frigates swarming the minions and pets of the old, rich, vicious Empire ruling vast tracts of 0.0(*). This is how the Goons started, and they have shown it works.
At the same time, you also have the 'high end' merc corp that knows what it's doing and has some serious grunt.
At the ideal time, the BearSwarm attempts to ***** open Goonspace, and then the Mercs pour in, looking to damage Goonswarms' infrastructure before their fleet can come back.
Will it work ? Maybe. It'll be more fighting for Goonswarm at least, so I'd *hope* they'd approve.
Me, I'd think that a small group of industrialists could buy quite a lot of noobs, with a ship and a little cash down, a promise of free replacement ships and a brand new cruiser after a certain number of anti-Goon ops.
(*) Yo Goons. You is whats you foughts. Deal with it.
