You see, my friend, we break up bubble camps all the time and get ours broken up. You sit in the open taking all comers.

Yes, it is harder because you never know who is gonna land in it or hot drop a fleet on your ass. That little frig you just insta-popped might have been the lead scout of greatly superior force.


it's irrelevant what lands in your bubble.

it's not harder because if you can't kill it you simply don't bother engaging it. just like in high sec if it isn't worth ganking, then you don't bother.

Have ever heard of an "Advance Scout" and a "Hot Drop"?

To be honest SR, I am perfectly fine with that. You seek a change in game play, using game play mechanics that protect you at the same time, it is your every right as a paying customer.

But let's face it. Your Alt is Care Bearing it up and is invulnerable. You are having your cake and eating it too.

If you had the courage of your convictions you would publicize this Alt Industrialist's ID and we would then see just how much you enjoyed having your enterprise dismantled by those you could never touch.

I as well do not want AFK miners to be untouchable. However, for you to be able to do so with impunity is the issue.


Everybody knows who my alt is and he is far from invulnerable.

Just drag yourself over to Kino and ask. The miners will be glad to fill you in completely including the multiple war targets who spend all day waiting for either of us to make an appearance.

Up thread I posted how miners can survive in a gank environment. None of it is new information. And yet, last night, with multiple people working to prevent me I kill three miners including one pod. The night before, two more, one of whom lost a 1billion ISK pod. Think about that. A guy mining ice, AFK, in an untanked Covetor with over a billion ISK of chrome in his dome.... How is ANY increase in number or ISK amount of kill rights going to make up for that?

All Highsec miners must follow the New Halaima Code of Conduct or be subject to bumping or ganking.  No permit, no mining. www.minerbumping.com

I know these things; "Advance Scout" and "Hot Drop." Neither one has ever forced me to engage against my will. Indeed, I try to bait Hot Drops, preciesly so that I may tollolololol as I dodge their needlessly expensive failure to stop my annoyances. I am the original Travelling Space Troll, and I take my show wherever it pleases me to go. Mayhap, I'll come annoy you in your system!

It appears you know words and phrases, even basic concepts, but have little experience in real-world application.

BTW: I have seen Bomber Bar at work - Bombing the hell out of things is what they do, and they will absolutely Leeroy a sacrifical hull into a bubble to see what's there, and allow the setup of an attack run.
Bombers bombing campers camping gankers ganking snipers sniping bombers... It's the ciiiiiircle of life..! And it nukes us aaaaalll...

you mean, even in null sec people lose a trivial amount of isk (one bomber) to inflict a disproportionate amount of damage upon an enemy. just like in high sec?

say it ain't so!

Oh, wait. I lied. It is so. Lol

Didja see the results of the BB's Sunday Special last week..? 344 kills, 14+bn ISK destroyed... Trivial losses. Some folks out there still don't know what hit 'em.


Edit:
Though I *will* stipulate it wasn't just pure gankage - Brave Newbies knew they were coming, and lived up to their names. GF.

to be fair, based on the OP it should have been locked a long time ago for lack of content, really.

oh, and/or redundant thread.

and/or duplicate.

i mean, do we really need more threads that are "qq my freighter got ganked, ccp please patch stupid"?
