Sadly, this game has degenerated into a hisec griefest.

Just look at this KB record. This isn't PVP, this isn't antibot.

It is griefing pure and simple.

The above is the second account of this player:

If CCP can't see that there is a problem here, this game is in trouble.

This is just one player griefing a single system.

Multiply this by a few score more just like him and you might begin to understand why entire regions are now devoid of miners.

EVE, nothing but grief.

Hehe, that's a nice collection of Hulks. I'm sure he's just practicing for Hulkageddon though, no harm in a little warmup exercises.

awesome

How is the game broken? Thats exactly whats supposed to happen when you arnt careful.

Its the miner's fault for thinking they should be 100% safe in highsec. They are not supposed to be.

Miners are just playing the game the way they were intended to. They have no recourse for this sort of action. Anyways, next expansion this will change.

Those Hulk fits make me cry. How the hell do you manage to screw up a fit for a ship meant to do one thing?

There's definitely a problem: people refuse to stop using horrid Hulk fits. Straight

It's a symptom of CIS or Carebear Invulnurability Syndrome. They think hi sec is safe so they fit like that.

Loving the Hulk with civilian shield boosters. This ganker definitely deserves some ISK for enforcing Darwin's law.

Bacon Sandwich.

Just what can a Hulk do when these griefers show up?

NOTHING all they can do is DIE.

It has nothing to do with paying attention, not being afk, weak tank.

It is abuse by null-lowsec failures that decide that the game is Destroyers ganking helpless miners.

This is bad and those that fail to recognise this as a problem are part of the problem.

You're right, no recourse what so ever
Unfortunately this is an MMO, where you have to interact with other players. I'd love to be perfectly safe carrier ratting in 0.0, that's the way my game is intended to be! Yet people try to blap me all the time Sad The "griefers" are also playing the game the way they want to play it. Sometimes your world and theirs come crashing head on, that's the nature of massively multiplayer. At that point if you aren't prepaired to fight back, tank the damage, warp away, etc. you'll end up on that killboard. This isn't an instanced world where you can mine in complete safety, in any sec status. I've always wondered how people don't get that...

You mean they're suddenly going to become smarter and not mine in 0.5 space mostly afk with a tank that is laughable or non-existent?

Post with your monkey.

since none of his lossmails have a ship scanner, let's assume that his kills are a completely unbiased representation of hulk fits in highsec

all of them are fit for max cargospace instead of even a consideration for tanking, and a large number of them have empty midslots where shield hardeners/extenders could have gone

so what's the problem?

The fact that 99.999% of these NPC Corp Sockpuppet alts can't get this through their fat pubbie heads is delicious.
