Dear CCP

Thanks for screwing up ice mining COMPLETELY, and with that the whole game for me, now I have nothing to do while I'm bored at work!!!

I now have 3 accounts that I was paying for with real money that will no longer be needed, nice going!


Let the flaming begin!



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.


FYI AFK alts are still paying customers which put money into CCP wallet which in returns pays the overhead which keeps the servers running. So what you are saying is EVE needs less accounts thus less expansions and less content am I correct?



Bots are the majority of cash-paid accounts these days?




Funny, I was under the impression running a bot farm paid for Plexes.


And before you say "those Plexes come from somewhere"

I again say there is no way they are the majority of accounts.

Now all they need is to fix AFK cloaking, AFK manufacturing, AFK PI, AFK research, AFK data core mining and so on and so on...

Right?

RIGHT?

Sheesh! AFK is an integral part of this game. Give it up already, guys.

You should all really stop complaining about afk miners, if we weren't doing what we're doing, how will your ships get built? how will your POS's run?

Complain all you want about botters, I don't like them either, they screw up the market prices, but afk miners... we're the real heroes in EVE!

Last time I checked, botting is still a breach of the EULA, whether you're paying or not.

No, you're not really. But you are the most satisfying explosions in EVE. Especially when the hatemail and killright activation take so long that I forgot I blew up your pod as well because it was just sitting there doing nothing, full of +5s and stuff.

As an investor in the New Order of Hisec, I support the OP and would like to thank him and CCP for all the tears that are flowing today.

Also, if any miners would like to investigate the possibility of bumping and ganking your competitors for the limited ice resources, please visit www.minerbumping.com for helpful guides. Contact an agent of the New Order for help getting started. A nicer group of pirates you'll never meet in New Eden.

Finally, Galaxy, please go back to posting with Galaxy Pig. She is adorable.

Atleast now while you are at work you can spend the time reading about upcoming changes to your game.
