Regarding Orcas mining afk - why not make a timer for the "mine repeatedy" option?
So that the drone has to be reactivated every 10 minutes. Or after 5 runs..

Something making afk dronemining harder - and wouldnt hurt the online miners much

I believe the AFK mining timer module is called CODE. Don't like that afk orca in system? Activate CODE with a quick mail...

First idea, mine them the ore away --> so he doesn´t make isk. If he switches targets he is not afk.

Given the numerous ways you can already deal with this in game, I don't see how this needs to be addressed here.
