I know the truth must irk you, being called a cowardly high-sec griefer. Deal with it.


Actually, you took a potential ally and drove him away. Well played, old chap.


actually, I found out he wasn't as smart or as open minded as i thought he was. Its hard to match this though, I got to admit I'm kinda rough on ppl. Sorry for crapping on you all so hard with logical arguments.


Ah, the old "anyone who disagrees with me is an idiot" argument. You're really scraping the bottle fo the barrel.


i've had enough honors in my life to realize my place. Have you?

but w/e this is a stupid conversation now. Can you quit attacking me and start telling me why you think you should be able to annoy people while under the protection of concord?

Have you been bumped recently? It sounds like you're unhappy.

OK, I'm done here. Have a nice discussion.


I'm sorry to see him drive you out of the conversation like that - it was nice to briefly interact with you. You're more than welcome to join us for the next bumping party.


haha, he crapped all over your stupid arguments and validated me but you'll take anything to try and get at me, won't you? Lol

Actually no he didn't, he was at least capable of holding a reasonable discourse and could see both sides of the argument.
He in no way validated your arguments by not agreeing with bumping, because he doesn't agree with afk mining either.

For years miners moaned about getting ganked while refusing to fit a tank, the gankers were even telling them how to not get ganked and still they moaned and did nothing, in short they refused to adapt because yield>not getting ganked. CCP then buffed barges to make them harder to gank, some miners have taken this to mean that they still don't have to fit a tank because it's more difficult to make them go squish, they still fit for max cargo and yield, another example of refusal to adapt.

The gankers have adapted, instead of making barges go squish constantly, they now make them go squish occasionally or they remove them from mining laser range via bumping, which is actually better for the miners as they no longer lose a couple of hundred million every time they explode, they just lose a mining cycle or three. Once again miners are moaning about people interfering in their "gameplay", there are counters to both bumping & ganking, miners have been informed of the counters to both and still they do nothing but moan on the forums.

If miners were subject to the rules of natural selection they would have long since gone the way of the Dodo.

Speaking of cowardly, please feel free to figure out who my mining alt is and try and pop him, make sure to bring lots of firepower, you'll need it because I actually value tank over yield.

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

Lets do a little fact checking here shall we. Griefing is a bannable offence. Now judging by the amount of petitions against bumpers (many) & the amount of bumpers that have been banned (none), that only leads to one conclusion. Bumping isn't griefing.

Actually, it was pretty clear what you said. I'll quote it again just incase you forgot:

You are also wrong again. People in nullsec who have lost nice stuff have considered it an issue aswell, only to be told it's working as intended. It is clear that you have absolutely no idea what you're talking about.

You just invalidated your own point, way to go.

Please explain why it's only an issue in hisec? Do losec and nullsec not count in your little bubble?

I'm waiting for the suggestions of concord removal in hisec or bumping becoming a flaggable offence so that miners can shoot the bumpers without interference, I don't think that'll work as well as they think.

Just bump him, I hear it makes people more lucid to be sent flying at a high velocity.
