Is it 100% safe to mine in a hulk in 0.5? (from players)
yes, that is what I'm asking.. Remember some talk about goons. But could never understand how hulks in 0.5 could be attacked in the first place. I have heard of gate camps, but that is a completely different dynamic.

you can still be killed, you're just guaranteed that whoever does loses their ship too (unless at war or if you take from their can / shoot them when they take from yours)

First, there are no place in EVE you are 100% sure. Not even in High sec, which includes 1.0 to 0.5.
You can be attacked directly. This is called unconsentual pvp. However the attacker will be shot down by concord as a result of attacking you. Getting away from concord is also deemed a bannable offence, so if the attacker gets away with his ship after attacking you you can report that to CCP who will investigate it, and take appropriate actions.
Now, since an attack in high sec leads to concord retailiation, killers have many ways to get what they want. IF its your loot they can use suicideattacks. That is to kill you anyway, but bring in a different ship to pick up the loot you drop, while the attacker gets shot by concord. That is allowed. Another thing is can-flipping. That is to flip cans the miners mine in, and when the miner picks up the ore they turn red to the flipper, and they can freely shoot the miner.
So yes, there are many ways to get around concord sanctions.
Back to your question abouot safty. No. There are no safe place anywhere in EVE, but you have a relative high safy if you take some precautions: Like mining far away from crowded systems. Checking the can you pick up the ore from is your can first etc.

actually I've heard of something new. A goon sneaking into the station in his pajamas and suicide bombing your ship while your eating your regular "Jita sandwich(tm)"
concord will only react by destroying the entire station, and all players docked inside. Pretty logical.

Would be cool if you could start a l4 mission(without a gate) in a system, that'll spawn real close to the asteroid belt and then bump the afk macro hulk into that mission

This is actually incorrect.... There is no danger in stations, even in 0.0 
(and you can make more money in stations than anywhere else)

Even mining in NPC corp with a rokh in 1.0 with t2 shield tanking is not safe.
why should mining in 0.5 in an hulk be safer than that? _______________________________________________ 10100110010100101010011010100101001100101110101 I will Conquer My Signature Somewhere in the future 10100110010100101010011010100101001100101110101 |

No, Its safer than Low sec & no sec BUT its less safe than 1. system. In 1. system you do not get rats, it 0.5 you get small rats. but aslong as you keep an eye on local and put a small rep on your hulk you should be fine.

If you want to be safer (never will be 100%) do not jet can mine, put cargo rigs and cargo expanders on your hulk and you can fit 5 Giant Secure Containers in the hold giving a capacity of 21k.

it will always be possible, unless concord starts to remote-repair the freighter. anyway, you'll just need more alphastrike, just that. _______________________________________________ 10100110010100101010011010100101001100101110101 I will Conquer My Signature Somewhere in the future 10100110010100101010011010100101001100101110101 |

A (well skilled) Thrasher does about 800hp burst dmg. If you got a lot friends you can pop anything anywhere. --
There are countless games in the world. There are at least as many ppl that dont like one or more rules of said games. That never stopped smart game designers from creating good games.

yes I know that,what I don't know is how many seconds between first strike and being concorded ?
a freighter has about 150K total HP ? if concorde gives you 10 seconds you need 15000 dps ? around 18 to 25 ships,depending on type ?

One way to stay safer. Use an alt to plink your shields with a noob ship weapon so Concord come in all guns blazing and pop your alt. Now Concord will hang around for a bit while you dock your alts pod. When Concord eventually disperse, bring out your alt in his shiny new freebie noobship and repeat.
With Concord floating about right beside you, nobody is going to try to suicide gank you. Just remember that this doesn't protect you from can flippers, only suicide gankers.

Stay away from systems near main travel routes. Ombey's maps will let you find a number of dead-end systems that are off the beaten path.
Amarr space (Domain, Kador, Kor-Azor) are thinly populated in many areas. Jihad-Storm and other gankers usually find plenty of fresh meat in populated areas without having to venture into the hinterland.
Its not 100% safe, but close to it in my estimation.

IFAIK, doing such using a cyno (in a Black Ops) was an exploit 'till they did something with it. As it changed? Not sure, but I don't think getting away by your own means (warping off) is an exploit.

Let me pipe in with some valuable information...
I personally have killed hulks in up to 0.8 sec status level systems, using characters no older than 30 days, so no it's not 100% safe. Don't use what you can't afford to lose.

Read the first two rules in the thread here Golden Rules, which is stickied in the newcomers section. The first two rules say it pretty clearly.
Concord is there to punish, not protect.
The only way your safe from aggression is in a station.

The story of the butterfly
A man found a cocoon of a butterfly. One day a small opening appeared. He sat and watched the butterfly for several hours as it struggled to squeeze its body through the tiny hole. Then it stopped, as if it couldn't go further.
So the man decided to help the butterfly. He took a pair of scissors and snipped off the remaining bits of cocoon. The butterfly emerged easily but it had a swollen body and shriveled wings.
The man continued to watch it, expecting that any minute the wings would enlarge and expand enough to support the body, Neither happened! In fact the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling around. It was never able to fly.
What the man in his kindness and haste did not understand: The restricting cocoon and the struggle required by the butterfly to get through the opening was a way of forcing the fluid from the body into the wings so that it would be ready for flight once that was achieved.
Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our lives. Going through life with no obstacles would cripple us. We will not be as strong as we could have been and we would never fly.
So have a nice day and struggle a little and teach well.

If you are mining in the same system, nay, region, as Chribba, pack up your mining lasers, and go play with the exotic dancers at the nearest pleasure hub. Remember, all your Veldspar are belong to Chribba!
Seriously, I mine regularly in 0.5, just watch local, and be aware of can flippers if you jetcan mine. Use drones for protection from rat spawns, but only deploy them when the rats appear/attack. Anyone who attacks you will feel the wrath of CONCORD, but as an added safety measure, stay align to a stargate, station, or celestial object.

First, there are no place in EVE you are 100% sure. Not even in High sec, which includes 1.0 to 0.5.

You can mine in High-sec relatively safe, just make sure to keep a nice Invul II and a SSB with you.

If you are asking if 0.5 is 100% safe to mine in with a hulk the answer is no.
If you rounded that percentage up from 99.9*% and actually really meant 99.9*% safe, the answer is yes.
