We don't need to do anything about it, CCP have accepted that it's a problem and are taking steps to fix it.

Also PvE ships die really really quickly when you engage them in a PvP ship, they are of little threat to somebody who is out hunting them.


It's a shame that they haven't decided to kill off AFK mining as well, opting to enable it further instead.

Freedom isn't something which is given away by those who have control. Freedom is something that must be taken by force. When miners find the strength to take their freedom and defend it, they will have earned it.

Oh god.

Looks like Doobie is trying for a thread lock.

Either that or he's really mad.

CCP has no sense of humour.

Notice how none of these idiots can answer for the quote I posted from their on site. They know and we know they're bunch of carebear pussies who can't PVP so they grief miners.They are resorting to trolling and flawed logic to "counter" my comments, which means I've won and can move on to another thread. Take care. Unsubbed.

If the miners WANT to be unprofitable to gank, he will fit a better tank at the cost of some yield.

If the miner don't WANT to be bumped, he will just make a few god damn jumps to get out of where James 315 currently operate. How damn hard is this?

wow, that poster really does have a potty mouth, they need to wash out their mouths with bleach or hydrochloric acid.

Good riddance to bad posters who can't hold a civilised debate without resorting to profanity, they're a self proclaimed attorney, as a servant of the law they should be ashamed of themselves, even more so because they were among the posters saying that what people do and say on the internet reflects upon their true nature.

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

Seems to be a highsec miner thing. They prove to be uncivilised whilst claiming to be civilised.

Might be because of sheer amount of love most of us give to those floating rocks. Not much left to keep it cool on the forum.

All this talk about miners not wanting to adapt to anything, being so vile for not being fully "at the keyboard".


I don't think gatecampers are much different.

You can't really camp a gate effectively if you are afk. An afk miner can gather lots of ice for example without ever touching his keyboard once he started the lasers. Thats a pretty large difference to me.

And that's a problem for you because....... [insert something about ganking, afk, bumping, risk v reward, personal requirements, GSC, smartbombing, CCP, agenda, Goons, Mittani, nerf, highsec]

Or just get over it and do you what YOU do best.

It's ice. Little cold bits of stuff. It sells for nothing because it is nothing. It fuels stick like things in space. It drives little pixels rapidly across space.

It's ..... ice.

It's not really a problem for me. I was just stating the difference between an afk gate camper results and an afk miner results.
