So there's been a group of bot miners, or to be politically correct, 3rd party software users that CCP has deemed allowed but not openly even though they say 3rd party programs arnt allowed, that have been new to the system I current live in. They empty out the ice belts way to fast causing a real annoyance to us casual players, so I got this idea from a friend and from looking around the forms to put together a SmartBomb Megathron, well the outcome. Successful! Enjoy,

Kill: Kronos Aurora (Retriever)
Kill: Parthurnaxx (Retriever)
Kill: Darkziel (Retriever)
Kill: FluxWarp (Retriever)
Kill: Comstock Grey (Retriever)
Kill: Zennifer Flax (Retriever)
Kill: Alakazamm (Retriever)
Kill: Elara White (Retriever)
Kill: Lunar Stormborn (Retriever)

Fit a megathron with 7 Smartbombs. Warp into Pack of Retrievers. Activate. Sit back and watch them go POP!

I have nothing against people who use multiple accounts. But people who use 3rd party programs to gain an advantage and leave others who don't at a disadvantage, due to over farming, is not cool and should not be allowed.

BAN 3rd Party Programs like ISBoxer!!

you might want to look at the C&P thread aswell

There looking for a group of BS to knock down 50 mackinaws.


However I do Agree on your opening thread about ISboxer. Something needs to be done about it, but if ccp wont your going about it the right way Twisted

What was your mega fit? I'd be willing to lose a mega and sec to do this for the lulz. Also how long did it take concord to pop you?

Everytime you read this you are required to send 100 million isk directly to me.

Highs: 7x Large YF-12a Smartbombs
Mediums: 2x Heavy F-RX Prototype Capacitor Boosts w/ Cap Booster 800s
ECM Burt II (just incase, optional)
Lows: 2x Energized Adaptive Nano Membrane II's
4x 1600mm Reinforced Rolled Tungsten Plates.
1x Damage Control II.

System was a 0.5 sec. So Concord came in at about 15-20 seconds.
Cycle time on the smartbombs were about 8 seconds and I was able to get 3 cycles off, a 4th cycle would have had them podded.


I'm also paying 10 mil bounty for each ship and/or POD of the characters listed in my above first post.



NOTE: I do not gank miners for fun. The only reason I took out the above mentioned was purley on the fact that they were bot miners.

Ah the selfrighteous dribble.

"I R A KNIGHT OF JUSTICE!"

Hate to break it to you boy, you don't know if these were botters, there are some lunatics who multibox on their pc without paying attention to their surroundings while watching tv nearby, has nothing to do with afk botting. Could have been, but doesn't have to, so quit the malarky already.

It's funny because these miners are the reason why you can afford to have a bs popped into them, cycle of life i guess. It's fine that you popped them, thats eve's beauty. But don't lie to yourself that it was the "right" thing to do. You're on the dark side of the force lord vader. Do it for the tears not for the taps on your shoulders.

To each their own opinion. I understand what you're saying but I've had a personal convo from one of the above mentioned players. He told me how he plays, what 3rd party programs he uses and even sent me a screen shot. That's my justification. Someone who rubs it in your face that their cleaning out the belts so fast you don't have anything left to mine and fully admitting to using 3rd party programs to gain an advantage is someone that's just asking to be ganked. In my opinion, and many others. It's justified.

You must be joking? All miners deserve to die. Op, no rigs? I'll go out tmw and do this and post kb on here. Nothing pisses me off more than miners and I don't know why! maybe its because they always whine.

One big like to you sir! These people are ruining the question/demand, and thus the fun, for the 'legal' miners.. I do however wonder why CCP allows this. I suppose it's not easy to catch these kind of players, for as far as you can call them players, and next to that it isn't a violation of the "Third party applications are allowed as long as they do -not- change the client" statement. Perhaps there has to come a slight change on that part.

I never wanted to, but i have created a gank alt.

I do not subscribe to the new order, but i agree that AFK fleets and bots have to go.

Some days i can get some ice, most days i cannot. Some days i can get ore spawns, most days i cannot.

I apologize to those little guys like me, who are just trying to make a buck. It's time to make being AFK a risky thing again.

EDIT: i applaud the OP's effort. i wish i was rich enough to keep funding a megathron ganker!

You should have filmed it.

I know someone who Ice mines and hates a guy who has about 8 skiff's mining Ice all the time with and orca and a charon in tow.

He'll love this thread.

Just so you know, if CCP says something is ok, then it is, whether you agree or not. Of course, "Tuesday" is enough reason to attack people that can't do anything about it on EVE, so whatever you make up in your own head to justify what you're doing is fine.

Not exactly sure why you fit tank to your gank fit either, afraid those mining ships would take you out?

With the increase in shiptoasting, the Report timer needs to be shortened.

Good work, welcome to the fun side of taking matters into your own hands :)

But a couple things...

1) No tank needed, Concord will gank you just as fast with or without all those plates in a BS. Don't waste the isk. The little Concord ships arrive first, lock you down, neut you and break target locks, but they only do on the order of 8-10k damage IIRC. Then a few seconds later the big Concordokken lands and one-shots you no matter how hard you're tanked.

2) Don't post chat logs in the forums, you'll get your thread locked.

3) All that indignation over a program that automates one mouseclick into lots of mouseclicks? What do you think translates *your* mouseclick into something the computer understands and passes along to the Eve clinet? Third party software.

(But it's ok, CCP allows the use of automation software like operating systems and ISBoxer.)

I don't judge people by their race, religion, color, size, age, gender, or ethnicity. I judge them by their grammar, spelling, syntax, punctuation, clarity of expression, and logical consistency.

ISB needs to away from eve. You should only be able to control accts that you manually have to. 3rd party programs are bad and CCP needs to be removed.
