Now the bounty pays based on the price of the ship you're flying, so much less paid. Still no kill rights, still have to be high sec ganked. Now gankers get paid 10% more than they did before. *shrug* That's assuming the corp doesn't take the day to have alts blow them up in frigs/cruisers a few times to collect all the cash. 10% more is usually bigger than the profit margin between buy price and insurance payout for T1 hulls.


Care to clear up my confusion?


Why is the concept of loss value so difficult that it has to be explained in every bounty thread ?

You get 20% of (destroyed ship value + destroyed module value - insurance value) given the bounty is high enough to cover this sum.

Personally, I have reserved 10 billion isk to put bounties on miners, hoping to encourage gankers to have a shot at them.
How much ISK have you reserved, and for what purpose?

I can only hope you're not all full of ****. This can turn out to be a great ganker zealot isk sink. By all means, teach us miners a lesson Bear.

Edit: By isk "sink" I mean isk in limbo. Just being a bit sarcastic there :P.

Highsec is owned by players now. Systems 0.5-1.0 are New Order Territory. All miners and other residents of Highsec must obey The Code. Mining without a permit is dangerous and harmful to the EVE community. See www.MinerBumping.com

I'd like to know just why you feel miners are so deserving of your personal ire ..




Some 'mining' facts you may not be aware of :-
Mining is non-inflatory
Mining promotes cheaper ships/modules due to resource abundance

I'd say the reason that the OP is targetting miners is because they are frustrated with getting their butts handed to them in PvP and feels the need to lash out at someone that can't really fight back, but is too poor/fearful of doing the dirty work themself.

Right now people are complaining about ship prices. Just wait until droves of highsec miners quit eve over the bounty/ganks as well as bots being banned and poped as well..... Hello 1b isk T1 battleships and 100m frigates!



This in turn is going to drive up isk demand for plex causing players who plex to play to quit. 60-80% of people will quit its just going to be pvp veterans and goonswarm/test left. Hope you guys like mining and expensive ships!

You could only put a bounty on those with -1 or lower security status.

A Retty will be like 4mil ISK, a Mackinaw will be about 35mil ISK.

Anyone ganking for so low will be ganking anyway. And who has the money to fund this anyway, Goons demanded 10 Heads for 100Mil when these ships had no tank, who has enough to put so much on every Exhumer to get the full payout.

If they do have so much money and are willing to spend it on this why haven't they started up the most well funded Hulkageddon in history.

Finally what makes you think all miners have glass jaws and a single gank = unsub. That and they have 2 new heavy tanked ships just for this.

I don't see this being a deal... Like at all.

I saw the original, I laughed, the EVE-Mail was a fitting sequel.

I am giving this show a thumbs up but my alt thought it was dry and gave it a thumbs down.
