No balance to ships, should be based on hauling AFK. Anyone hauling AFK, have no rights to complain when they diaf.


And I do use them. If you could read you would see that. They do not cater for my needs so I am asking for something that does.

I agree that is the sitaution now, never used to be like that.

Some poeple play high sec because real life means that they cannot spend every second at the keyboard. CCP needs to cater for these people too.

Then pay someone to move the items for you. There are many player corps dedicated to that.

then train for a fukking orca or freighter and stop hauling 400 mil in 1 mil ship.

afk-Hauling stuff safely in that magnitude or cargo value should have some drawbacks, like training time and ISK investment for mentioned ships!

If I had a cargo sufficient to warrant an Orca I would get one, my cargo never exceeds 200-400 mil and is never more than 20k by volume. I'm calling for a buffed itteron something like the new Mackinaw miners have.


So an Occator?


You wouldn't get that to battleship level EHP, still gankable unless you have active hardeners and damage control. No good for afk in that case.


You don´t need BS like EHP. An Occater got nearly as much EHP as a unfitted Brutix. And one single ship can´t one hit a BC (except capitals, Stealth bomber and other 0.0 stuff). And if there are enough ganking guys to one hit a BC there could also be enough to one hit a BS. So use an Occator and fit it right, this one is gank stable and should be able to hauler over 10000 m³

You really are an idiot. As I said in the thread that you have not read I now use a Viator and cloak\warp wherever I need to go. I would rather have a ship that wasn't an Orca that could safely afk haul a reasonable amount. Occators are nor safe unless you can be present at the keyboard.

Haha, confirming you are a fool. An idiot and utter turnip for a brain. (I like that one) . I safe haul all the time, just not in the manner I lke to. I presented an argument, if you don't aggree then fine, present a better argument, make your point but keep it civil. Or better still STFU. Instead I get attitude and "fukking" this and "fukking" that from you. Go shove it.

Not upset, just making a point that I pay my subs just like everyoen else and am entitlied to play as I wish. One of the privilieges of high sec was always that you could go afk with a relative degree of safety, that has changed in recent years. Being able to go afk is important when you have rl commintments that mean you cannot spend every second at the keybaord nursemaiding internet spaceships. Still I like to play Eve as and when I can and I think CCP should cater for us as well, our money is just as good.

I am entitled to ask for something in a game I subscribe to. Doesn't mean I'll get it but I certainly have the right to start the debate. What gives you the right to naysay me?

it threatens my fun in the first line.

While I understand the necessity for highsec ganking, asshatery and defending the opinion of need for ganking, one should not wonder why there are so many "carebears" NOT in lowsec and 0.0 sec.

Whats just ironic is that you need Blockade Runners and Transport Ships for HiSec xD Roll

You certainly are. Nobody's stopping you from doing exactly what you're setting out to do, the only problem is that you're not present to react to whatever might happen.

What you're saying here, are the words "relative degree of safety", but what you've been saying all along in this thread has been "waah I'm not completely safe while AFK-hauling so much that it's worth ganking".

You have stations in literally every hisec system, if you have to go AFK, dock up.

They have catered to you, it's called "the orca". Use it.

Of course it has not always been like that. We used to manage okay before the likes of Orcas, transport ships and blockade runners enterd game. Very few people had freighters either and it was still much safer to move goods back then compared to today.
