If CCP changes mining so much i cannot multibox, i will request they refund me any and all money I have paid for 9 of my 12 accounts.

While people do thing Mining is boring, it is. It is unless you have so much yield you need to stay 100% focused on hauling and jettisoning ore from the miners.

When I mine, I have a rorqual boosting with 8 miners mining and a second rorqual hauling. Every 10 minutes i jettison 1 can and some change of ore (somewhere around 300km3) haul it to station and and repeat. The Warp speed changes made this that slow. I never know where a cluster will be, 1 or 120 AUs from the station in my slow rorqual. I also watch local for enemies (OMG NERF LOCAL CHAT) and chat with people on Comms.

When i am not in a station system, i am busy managing my compression runs.

After all this, assuming i do not get ganked, how much so i make?

...not a lot actually, only about 200m isk/h unless i cherry pick rarer stuff. I could go into Ice and mine DG for more isk, but only by so much.

In the past i would accept this isk/hour as i had some security of being in a scanning site, but now its like mining is completely broken.

Mining security: how far away from the gates are you, and how far from the warp in of the site.
Mining defense: ....what? miners have the ability to defend themselves?


so essentially, you want to remove multiboxing, and make it an even more dangerous, and not even near lucrative as other options?.

removing multiboxing would mean i have to pay more for my stuff.

That ain't right.

"**CCP is changing policy, and has asked that we discontinue the bonus credit program after November 7th. So until then, enjoy a super-bonus of 1B Blink Credit for each 60-day GTC you buy!"**

Never forget.
