Wait, so you are either paying RL money, or ISK to do something you find boring, and that is CCPs fault? Roll

Ah yes, the miner who doesn't like mining -but mines anyway- and thinks that someone else is the source of all their troubles. Classic.

Send any badposting-hate-mail to Sol Kal'orr. I promise to read it when I resub.

Maybe Im to subtle for the great minds of the forum. Why not make ICE mining more fun instead of more boring!

Because, "Fun" and "boring" are subjective quantities.

Why not simply stop mining ?
You make it look like somebody is forcing you.
I am quite certain that this isn't the case.

This is like complaining about having a stupid girlfriend.
If you don't like her, then dump her.

I hate to disagree with you,
but there is nothing subjective about "boring" in connection to "mining".

Well, I think we can make an exception for mining, although...I know people who do it for fun on a weekend....they might be outliers though.

If you dislike Ice mining, stop ice mining.

Ok... "more fun".

As others have pointed out, you got into ice mining while it wasn't "fun" which doesn't make a lot of sense if you are playing a game to have fun but not having fun and still not having fun for quite some time (over a year)...

Figuring out what the hell your idea of "fun" would be should prove an interesting challenge based upon what you've said so far in this thread but one I bet few would be up for facing (vs just snickering and walking away).

Please bear with us -- "Fun" will be supplied shortly.

It's not that you're too subtle for everyone; far from it. People get that you're complaining that ice mining is boring and that you want it changed back to the way it was, or whatever. It's that no one understands why you'd persist in doing something that is so universally considered snooze worthy. Do something you enjoy. EVE is full of people who love ice mining. If you move on to something else, the economy will stabilize, I promise.

Ice systems are permanently designated and you are actually 'looking' around for them for hour upon boring hour?

Mining is exciting! Never knowing when someone will jump in a gank you, always with your mouse pointer on the jump button.. making sure you are always aligned. Did I tank correctly? will my cap run out? fun times. Roll

When were intrusion countermeasure electronics added to the game? And why do you get them by mining? Sounds more like something you'd get from invention or reverse engineering.
