If you consider less players playing Eve a success you are literally a terrorist, and IMHO, a total douche also.

The former is fact, latter opinion.

Oh, do not mind me. I only want the participants of Hulkageddon to take a good look at what they do. I make no judgement.

I have done both, and these days I make my ISK missioning in 0.0 and hi-sec

Hi sec is about 100x safer.


Grab a Hulk and mine in high sec then. Go on, do it. Blink

I never realized how dumb highsec miners were until i started to help gank them with my gang. No tank, no rep support, some even only fit 2 strip miners on hulks.

Burn them all.

No tank that can possibly be fit on a Hulk stands a chance against a suicide ganker and friends. So why bother at all? In the end, the Hulk that fit for mining vs tanking; the mining fit will have netted a far better yield compared to the tanked Hulk.



I know you're not really this dumb.


Somone ran the numbers and its true a yestertech hulk cannot withstand mordern day military equipment.

What gets me though is why are htey still using tech 2 ships when tech 1s are infinitly cheaper in this time.


The end times are upon us, people fear it subconsciously and cling to expensive things that give them comfort and make them believe they won't be affected.

Public service.....that's laughable. No. Helicity is only doing what any good rabble rouser does, pander to the lowest dredges to take advantage of the weakest of any society.


No.

You are describing mittens there.

I don't think you actually understand the graphs you linked.

(hint the time sequence is reversed with more recent data being on the left side of the graph)



Actually this is very true. Looks like we may (that's an important word, Flamers) not even hit 40,000 today.


Lets see, despite all the whining we still crested over 50k on Sunday. That sure doesn't sound like people have been discouraged from logging in due to the Burn Jita event.

Normal Sunday is around 55,000. So, so solly, Skex-san. It's down.

It was executed quick and sharp, almost painless. We were able to watch it over live streams, too. If you were watching Siigari's then you actually got a good commentary from it. However, a four week Hulkageddon sounds like watching grass grow and will most likely bore everyone. There are hardly any threads about Hulkageddon either, but you could see Goon threads getting locked by the minute.

Sure thing, as long as you grab one and start mining in G-0Q.

We'll see who lasts longest, shall we?
