Troll time already?

If I had ever been ganked while mining in Highsec, I would understand the OP better.

So, meh...

Ok I just googled that song and listened to it and read the lyrics, how in gods name did the OP connect that to miner ganking? I thought the song was funny but there was no mention of ganking or mining anywhere in it.

This thread again? Talk about being tedious........

Although, the unfiltered arrogance is an interesting twist.

I do not know what the hell everyone is going on about when it comes to miners being ganked in game. Travel the systems in and around Jita, Rens, or any of the other main trade hubs. There are miners going about their business as usual. Ore prices are coming down. Ship prices are dropping.

So if all this terrible ganking is happening as frequently as many would have you all believe - I am not seeing it. The kill boards back this up. It's not like we're seeing barges and whatnot exploding every few minutes. So stop hyping something that is just not happening.

Besides, I think some people have actually grown bored of ganking mining barges - if they haven't - then why are there so many still mining away like they have no care in the world?

It's these forums, I swear. If I just played the game, I wouldn't even know hulkageddon or goons existed. I come on here, and they make it seem like they're bringing the world to an end.

Post with your monkey.

I know, right, but if you are actually in game you'd see that it is not as bad as people make it seem. When I can fly through half a dozen system and count almost a couple of dozen mining ships...it isn't as bad as people make it seem.

Let me use poetry to explain the love of suicide ganking,

Hey I just met you
And this is crazy
But your Exhumer
Looks awfully tasty

[u]Rules of The Game[/u] 1. Everyone in the world is playing The Game. A person cannot not play The Game; it does not require consent to play and one can never stop playing. 2. Whenever one thinks about The Game, one loses. 3. Losses must be announced to at least one person.

Miners aren't dumb. They are lazy. Which is worse.

If all they did was mine aligned and at the computer, ganking would become one of the hardest things to do in EVE. But instead, they prefer to whine and continue being lazy*.


*Not all miners are like this... just the whiny vocal ones.

Ah, the good old days.

Now I just mine sleepers. And Other people.

First of all I hate mining in EVE, it is the worst implemented thing I have seen in 25 years of playing MMO&Text games.

That's where you come in Miners, you are the equivalent of a goat staked out in a clearing with all four legs hamstrung, bleating feebly.

Everyone is laughing at you, the gankers, people in 0.0 who never go to high sec, CCP ...(they even have a little song on you-tube you can look at telling you exactly how they feel).

Not only that you are paying $15 a month per account to be laughed at and slaughtered. Silly miners.

Just a little insight from someone with no axe to grind, almost no interest left in EVE, probably because I have done most things you can do in EVE to death.



Are there any left? 27000 players on my time from 39000 to 44000? Big damn difference in a few months.
