I'm sure it's been done, but we hadn't really thought of it before ourselves. Amazing what you will find to do when your all sitting around drunk, low-sec is slow, and you want to kill something. Introducing suicide-ganking hulks. That's right, with 2 to 3 destroyers (we overheated our guns, may not be necessary though) we knocked out a hulk in plenty of time before Concord got us. We even made money on the fits dropped and hell, we only did it because we were bored. One guy was in tears pleading for us to give the modules back and refund some of his isk, he just started playing the game and trained straight to a hulk and spent all his money on it and blah blah blah, griefing=satisfaction. 3m worth of total ships lost vs over 100m hulk=satisfaction. We had so much fun we went on to kill 4 more before we passed out drunk. I've since bought the BPO's for the ship/fits and we are going to mass-produce SG vessels, so miners on the fringe of low-sec afk mining ice, your our new best friend, keep it up!

Back when I used to mine a lot, people tell me..
"Why do you tank your Hulk? There's no way you can be suicide-proof and still be able to mine decently."
.. to which I would say..
"I don't have be suicide-proof. I just have to be a harder target than you."
Apparently that's still as true post-nerf as it was before. ---

Haha, damn you guys are harsh. I didn't say nobody has ever done it, I was simply sharing my drunken story of boredom and found it fun. We typically don't look for targets in high-sec so it was more of a novelty for us at the time.
I guess I should be prepared to be descended on by a hungry pack of rabid dogs when I post out here though calling me a virgin and a newb and whatnot.
(Look, I even used multiple paragraphs)

Yes, Haytrid, the EVE-O forums are known for their sharks...
Well, I'm glad you found it fun, but, as you've probably gathered, suicide ganking has been going on since EVE was created. __________________________________

if you went after the noodle suckers and rice balls. Prob get my respect. But being to afraid to goto lowsec and say your Bored. Meh Kiddy crap at best.
But AFK Riceball idea has been done before. And none really stick with it. They need more of a Epeen stroke of knowing they hurt a real player in some way shape or form. Much like you describe.

If you really want a challenge, suicide gank some mission-running Drakes. That should be fun!
