I feel like this was probably the best thing to happen to mining. The number of bots and afk miners destroyed during this time and the delicious rise in mineral prices both made me happy. Why did hulkageddon have to go so soon?

Something clever

if you want to gank miners, nothing is stopping you doing so. or paying others to do so for you.

Hulkageddon is not a CCP event, its emergent gameplay.


For some people, Hulkageddon never ended. For others, it has yet to begin.


Hulkageddon isn't an event, its a state of mind.


Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

There is nothing stopping you from attacking miners whenever you feel like it.

The New Order has SRP for lost catalysts so you can gank illegals more or less for free, plus get their loot of course. Every illegal mining ship that blows up is a small win for the universe. See www.minerbumping.com for more information.

See Bio for isk doubling rules. If you didn't read bio, chances are you funded those who did.

Except the blog is creepy and sounds like a cult, reading it gives people cancer.

If by cancer you mean the urge to drop a catalyst on a barge for giggles, then I am going to need some pretty intense chemo.

... or CONCORD could just "go on strike" for a few days.

I'm sure life without CONCORD would be a huge shock to some people -- and definitely a huge source of entertainment for some of us, if only for a few days.

If by "creepy" you mean "hilarious", and by "cult" you mean "clever bunch of fellows", and by "cancer" you mean "heightened awareness of current events in highsec and sense of civic responsibility" then I agree with you 100%. Also, they pay you to gank miners.

If you want a Hulkageddon style event, then some player(s) need to organize it. I would encourage you to do so. I will participate.

wow, once again i've struck some of our loudest and dimmest center-mass with a pebble and they start spewing.
Hulkageddon was a fine idea years ago.

Hitting non-combat ships is fun for the slow kids or newbs, but ultimately meaningless.

Something tells me that a "protest" against current Archon and Drone assist mechanics will prompt a Hulkageddon...

yah ... generally speaking though when you run into new order they are a bunch of noobs who think they are "elite PvPers" (and may eventually achieve that status) but in reality are mainly hot air.

I am sure a few of them are actually serious PvPers who are more than capable of holding their own in a losec/null roam or wardec and jsut do new order for lulz but sadly most of the ones I seem to come across are actually a bit embarrassing

and .. none of my toons EVER mine by the way, too boring ... I just find the sort of idiots that flock to New Order and post self important "mining advise" nonsense in local really annoying and would be ashamed of being associated with them :D

meaningless.

you heard it here folks, an event to gank miners at a significant level enough to raise the price of trit by 2-3 isk is meaningless and has no affect on the economy.

The New Order welcomes all who wish to promote justice and peace. Read the Code every morning and evening as I do, and you may find that embracing the Code gives you strength. We do not require elite skills to join us, but by soaking up all the goodwill that you are surrounded by among us, you may find that you blow up more ships than you could before.

Now would be a good time for us all to discuss our favorite parts of the Code. I personally love Gallant.

Surely some Mackinaw BPO owner would want to start a Mackinawgeddon to drive up the value of their investment, and might be willing to donate 20b in prizes to that end.

I suggest the prize be something that further encourages justice, such as 1,000 fitted catalysts.

Dunno... will everybody be getting a free ISH Scorp for every Mack killed ?

Gotta toss that bling around or nobody will give a rats ass.
