So it was asked by hulkageddon sponsors:  “Do  events like Hulkageddon do more to improve the game or hurt from the game?”

Here’s my thoughts on the matter.

We play EVE.  EVE is a vicious, cruel place where there are acts of kindness and acts of remorseless vengeance that play out on a daily basis (very similar to the real world).  This is part of what makes EVE the game that it is today.  It’s a sandbox environment and you don’t have GM’s enforcing certain rules about what’s “moral” or “ethical” (other than RMT) and they pretty much let us kids loose in the sandbox…  Where we promptly choose to throw sand at each other, and swing little plastic pails around hoping to bonk the other kids in the nose to make them cry sweet sweet tears.

This is the beauty that is EVE and the hulkageddon event is simply a more organized way for us kids to throw sand at one another.  It’s what makes EVE great and if you don’t like it, get the hell out of the sandbox and go crying to your mother while the rest of us laugh our asses off.
