That is the most beautiful picture I have ever seen in my entire life. If it were a pixelated render of Jessica Alba then surely Piekura, Hageken and Isanamo would be her delicious lady parts.

I'm glad I could provide you with such beauty.

Now, could you please add +1 to your killing-it-forward queue, in my honor?

I am still mining near Amarr in my un-tanked Mack, and my deadspace-fit L4 blitzing Nightmare is starting to be worth quite a bit.

On top of that, I've upped my High-Sec Clone implants to about a Billion with my recent acquisition of Sansha Modified 'Gnome' Implant, along with all relevant turret/Beam 5% implants.

Thanks in advance!

So I've occasionally heard of corporations that simply don't allow miners to mine in certain .5 systems and actively gank people who try to mine 'their' system. Anyone know where/which corporations actively do this? I've never encountered them in game, probably because I never ever mine. But I'd like to fit out a tanky barge and see what kind of fun I can have. On my main of course.


You are unlikely to attract attention from corporations which police certain systems asteroid belts on your own. They will primarily be looking out for large mining fleets. The most infamous ones will have numerous pilots all with similar 'birth dates' and will often have unimaginative or very similar names. A name followed by an ordinary word is a common choice. I won't give an example to protect the guilty.

Regarding jetcanning this method has in fact become much more common since the T1 industrials were rebalanced and the Miasmos was given an ore carrying capacity of more than two jetcans at the lowest skill level. They are especially used by Procurer & skiff pilots who wish to avoid being suicide ganked. When pilots use this method best practise is to time it right and steal nearly full jetcans of ore then start to bump them out of mining range.

Just to ninja the thread:

when wanting to ambush someone in a procurer I should go for thermal/kinetic hardeners, right? From what I'm reading thru the forums adaptive will be a waste, since catalysts are the ships they will attack with?


90% of my post just got deleted for off-topic posting. Many other replies as well. The post above you is an ISD post explaining that. Whats wrong with you?


My question was on topic and in relevance to what OP was asking. Can't read your deleted posts... because they were deleted. What's wrong with you?

You can absolutely "own" a HiSec system. It just takes effort and a different way to go about "fighting".

I won't get into a lot of details - but yes, suicide ganking, miner bumping (for you tanky guys and NPC guys) and wardecs (for the ganky guys or corps who refuse to bend the knee). This works for miners. There's a way to deal with mission runners but I won't go into that too much.
