I was happily mining in one of my frequent belts when all of a sudden three cataclysts fly up to me and proceed to shoot me while concord does nothing. These guys are a cancer in this video game and should be given a healthy dose of radiator in head and crotch. I figured that most everyone know that hisec is for the pve and laid back chill plays. I wish to ask ccp to remove them from hisec all together and even see to it that there are police in every asteroid belt.

If you see those guys please kill them back from me

So.

You were illegally mining in hisec when your mining ship was confiscated by....somebody.

We don't even know (from your account) if they were CODE or just vigilantes.

However, CONCORD destroyed their ships automatically.

You also should have kill rights.

tldr

learn to play the game newb and HTFU

PS I hear mining in nullsec is much safer than in hisec; you should talk to a Goonswarm recruiter and see about moving to null.

Everything in EVE is a trap.

And if it isn't, it's your job to make it a trap...:)

Well emergent gameplay types have come up with a CODE. where miners buy permits to mine in high-sec and not get blown up as much. They're actually doing industrial types a favour, creating a need for ships and stopping mineral prices nose diving by ganking bots and afk miners.

Oh and you might have to fit a tanking mod or two in null-sec instead of 4 empty mid slots (just saying after seeing the killmail got posted on one of the killboard sites).

Thanks for the info. "Verily, I have often laughed at the weaklings who thought themselves good because they had no claws." One of ours, ten of theirs. Best Meltdown Ever.

I'm sorry, I really have to point this out. The radiator is what keeps the coolant in your car cool. The people who ganked you were likely all overheating, and a radiator (if there was such a thing) would really only be helpful to them.

Hentogaira... I remember mission running from there for a very long time. Right on the edge of low sec and full of old bears absent mindedly nomming on ice anoms and badtouching the pyroxers. With local typically dead silent, it's like a bitterbear nursing home.

OP, judging from zkillboard it looks like the fellows who sidled up to you and gave you that three finger surprise that brought you here have been operating nearby for quite some time. You don't need to move, but if you don't want something like this to happen again you are going to want to adapt to the fact that you operate your preyship in an area that borders on the hunting grounds of nearby predators.

This might help also:

Edit: I just saw what caused that last outburst and nearly choked on my dinner.

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

I just finished up an evangelism session with our dear friend, XenoDC. I find her blaspheming to be so extensive that I will not be satisfied with only teaching her. I am adding another to the queue, as the Lord commands this. I pray she finds the courage within to repent of her sins. Let it be known now that the Lord will have the last word and all justice will be served.

I'm wondering, how would a recently purchased character know what this game used to be like ?

Edit - because that might have been a bit harsh, my guess is this thread is a new player who tried to skip ahead too fast and lost a barge then an orca and isn't happy game mechanics in EvE isn't like other games.
