to be fair, if you are omega with mining barge, you will still die to 2 players anyway

You could be in an omega with an officer-fit battleship and still die to 2 players, in high-sec no less.

None of my four alpha accounts got blown up in the last 2 month. So not every alpha is connonfodder, and I guess going omega would not save you anyway. And for no reason? I can tell you one reason: You were begging on multipe occations and most players in EVE give beggars a bounty and/or blow them up. And why should anyone pay for EVE if you could get it all for free? And threatening that you will stop playing for free? Really? Guess they will change everything tomorrow Big smile

I was with my cruiser and two(2) paying(OMEGA CLONES) customers came with a battleship+battlecruiser and killed me for no reason, when I was clearing a mining asteroid belt. They are pirates. I do not have access to battleship technology to fight back, or greater ORE mining ships to easily make up the loss. It took long time to get resources just to buy a cruiser with ISK because of not having access to the better mining vessels as an alpha. So 3 things; Free players(alpha's) are apparently just there to get destroyed by paying customers, Can't get the fighting technology(i.e. Battleship) to have a fighting chance against paying customers, Cannot Mine using the better ORE mining ships therefore replace what is lost fairly reasonably.

How about you, your company, does this? Give complete access to the regular Tech Tree, for the faction that the Alpha Clone belongs to and all ORE mining vessels, to be more competitive with the paying Customers. The paying customers in return will get automatic Boost to all Mining Ships+ about 25% more boost to everything on a fighting ship, so they are a bit harder to compete with but not so invulnerable as it is now currently in the game.


For now,because of cannot compete with the Paying customers, attacking me as pirate in ".4" spaces, not even the lesser security level spaces; I will stop playing. Hopefully you will change the game up some more to be fairer to free players to build themselves up and also protect themselves from Paying customers.

Thanks for listening.
