Ive seen Macks exploding everywhere but they are a never ending flood. So perhaps instead of suicide ganking them so that your masters can make a fortune selling off their existing stock you could try something that would really hurt and would produce more tears than you are gathering at the moment.


Switch your targets to mission runners but only (tech 1 battleships would be a waste and are very easy to replace)

Faction Battleships
Marauders
Tech III ships.

I fly a Faction ship and could not care less but it would really shake up highsec and produce superior vet tears

(I dont mine as mining is for (insert derogatory comment here)

The mistake here appears to be that you assume we are doing this with the purpose of reveling in the tears it produces. This is not so. The main purpose in our actions against the Gallente blue ice mining vessels is for another reason entirely. It has, however, provided the following secondary benefits:

1) Tears. Sweet, salty, luxurious tears.

2) A disruption of the horrifyingly innumerable bot miners endless flow of isk that was flooding the market with oxytopes and destroying the market thereof.

3) Driving up the prices of mining vessels on sale on the market - thus causing other miners to profit by mining minerals and builders to profit from selling ships they produce.

See? Goonswarm is helping you. I don't know why people get so self-righteous about it.

If you have been present at such a scene, you will most assuredly bear witness to the fact, that every one of the spectators, were there even thirty of them, by common consent apparently, offered the unfortunate owner this invariable consolation: "It is an ill wind that blows nobody good. Everybody must live, and what would become of the glaziers if panes of glass were never broken?"

EVE is becoming shallow and puerile; it will satisfy neither the veteran nor the "WoW" type crowd in the transition.

I've seen attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion, but you don't see me making fail threads about it.
