Bumpers are not thugs. Thuggery involves violence or the perceived threat of violence.

They are social servants and deserve our gratitude.

Seems accurate to me. Think he nailed it for what it is.

Funny that you use the term greifing ....

Firmly informally. It's not a petitionable action.

You should be much more careful, or post such informal stuff with a non-CCP alt.

Starting rumors is not allowed on this forum.

I all but guarantee you'll be quoted now as calling bumping "griefing."

Thanks a lot.

sounds like to me your getting some insight to private convo going on in ccp on the topic.

Sounds to me like you're pretty mad that he said it's not a petitionable action. Cool

LOL is that what your crystal ball tells you? I would like to know how to aquire this skill you have of reading tone from text. Would be most handy to have indeed.

Yes he did say it was not bannable yet, just as they said afk minning also in not banable. I like the fact that he called it for for exactly what it is regardless of the rules.

I like how you put an imaginary "YET" into the quote, myself.

Looks like you've got a crystal ball, too...What?

Just FYI I mine in null. The only bumping that happens there is from alliance mates.

This makes you the foremost mature and wise expert then on ganking / bumping high-sec miners.

Thanks for the heads-up.

Locking this as a duplicate thread.

We don't need a hundred threads all about bumping. If you want to talk about it, stick to one thread, here.
