Sure, I understand that my fellow miner may not understand English, or that they may only be online a little while longer ….but Jeez…no wonder we’re a hunted bunch.


You are aware that you can shoot fleetmembers without concord bothering to check if this friendly fire truly IS friendly ?

How? been trying to for a while, even posted in your forums asking the same question. Send me a mail or eve mail of a contact window, the AFK miners and muti-boxers in my area are getting out of hand I am training up a ganker of my own, but it's far from ready.

I am harder to bite than a mining barge.

You can hide it behind all the lame roleplay or false religion that you want, the truth is that you do it because you find it funny and don't want to take any risk in low/null sec. Nothing else than that don't pretend to be saviors of anything that just laughtable.

Game Mechanics allow you to do that, you've learn how to dodge concord or pull them far enough to prenvent them to come in time.
But it's a PvE fight. shooting at an unarmed barge after pulling some NPC ? you call it PvP ?

The problem is you think the PvP started when the ganker pressed F1.

Seems that i hit the sensible case. you know what ? only truth hurts. False religion for joking and trolling at best, or a bunch of totaly nuts griefers, in anyway, the result is the same. Without hisec miners, you'll never have anything to fly on. They are part of the economy and really don't need a crazy sheperd coming from god know where.

Like your shepperd, that is the "savior" in his dreams, you won battle that take place on your head only. Forum PvP looks even more safer than hisec ganking. the next step is slaping babies.

But farther than you own person or mine, we all know the truth : no "god", no savior, no belief. Just a band of ppl who find their fun in the way of griefing others. You play that way for the illusion of power that it give to you, because everytime someone give you his money, you are not happy to "save" him but to looks him bow at you. You are looking like a sect for me. Power hungry and maybe, if you believe a second what you say (what i doubt) totally out of sanity.

Did you somehow miss the bit where the religious zealotry and roleplay are satire? Not to mention really really effective at producing hilarious chat logs.

Some people think PvP starts when the shooting begins.

I like to think the PvP starts when I log in and ends when downtime happens..........

I think the RP aspect is very relevant actually, and DOES justify this activity. HiSec, without any element of risk, can be pretty boring. New Order and their band of merry murderers are spicing things up in the systems they operate in by adding risk to a profession that is so damned boring it's not funny.

RP aside, they're also doing a favor to those who actively mine... while at their keys, for the minerals they need. It can be infuriating as a miner who's trying to eke out a living by harvesting some resources for their industrial projects, only to have a swarm of afk bot-wannabes drop into their belt and procede to devour all the roids in record time.

Rather than whinge, criticize or suggest these folks go to null/lowsec my recommendation is to adapt. If you must think of mining as a PVE activity, don't forget the E part of that. Your environment is more than the pretty space backdrop you float in, the other players in the game do influence it. If you fail to adapt to changes in said environment then you are going to have a a hard time with it.

Personally, I've never had a barge/exhumer ganked, but that's not for lack of trying. On the occasions I've had folks try generally by the time they started locking onto me I was already well into warping away. The only reason I wasn't space junk in those situations is that I never for one second assumed I was safe. I have to admit, it also made mining almost exciting when that happened tho. Not afraid of losing my ship any more, more worried about getting popped while driving something that's shitfit, as it's just embarrassing.

Come hell or high water, this sick world will know I was here.

HM? the warninglabel that comes up, not sure if I missread it all along, but I think it states that concord will shoot you if you do illegal actions against fleetm8s.
