Mine scordite instead, veldspar omber or plagioglase, same boring stuff.

EDIT: as far as I'm concerned, the less AFK alts there are the better this game will be.

I'm fully against botting, I have never tried to do that. I have not even tried out multi-boxing software like some other players, so first get your facts straight, and stop being a moron

My game play was ice harvesting on 3 accounts and doing anoms on a 4th, do I criticize you on how you like to play the game?

No one is criticising your play style

We are critising the fact you think that what you do in EvE is in someway respectable.

You do realise that people who do what you do are pretty much despised throughout the cluster, dont you?

So why expect sympathy?

As far as the ability to find where the ice is in a system, nothing has really changed, since the new scanner points the ice belts right out. However, Just checking out the new UI before heading to work, I went to my usual ice belt and is was nearly empty. This is a problem for me as it seems the 4 hour times will be often and I'm going to have a hard time getting the needed ice for my POS. I haven't checked on my NullSec Belt yet, but I'm hoping it's not the case there.

Not a game killer, but I won't be getting ice while at work anymore. Then again..

Dear CCP

Thanks for fixing ice mining COMPLETELY, and with that the whole game for everyone, now that the in-game resources are better balanced and a little trickier to throw botminers at, people might have to find something new to do with their subs and stop flooding the market with too much bloody ice!!!

I only have one account now which is going to save me about $30 a month - turns out all I need is the one since ice mining was just a time filler and had no in-game functionality as far as I'm concerned, and it's only purpose before was to give people something to do when they were bored at work. Now I can actually get my priorities straight!!!

Thank you CCP!
