Not everyone plays the game the way YOU think it should be played. I mine BECAUSE I can do other things at the same time. I LIKE being able to further myself in the game and still be able to deal with RL things, as needed. So, stfu and play YOUR game and quit trying to change it for everyone else. How damn selfish are you?!! Pathetic

Just end it already. Let missions be the primary source of minerals, there's not a single one that you can't get from missions anyway!

As far as Ice mining goes, it's terrible, just seed the fuel on the market from NPC vendors.

/thread


Let me very briefly expand on why your an idiot

Hulkaggeddon gone.

The Goons Ice Interdiction Gone

A Large part of Industry Gone

Also if CCP do change drone then the only source of minerals becomes via missions

The price of ship would go through the roof and you would be the first to start crying when that happens.


Hulkageddon's whole purpose is to END THE AFK MINING IN HIGH SEC.

This will do it permanently.

What part of this don't you understand?

OP, You're an idiot.

Next.


Post with your main or else whatever you say is irrelevant. Especially since you don't give any reasoning.


I'll post with who I want to, thanks, doesn't change the fact that you're talking out of your ass if you think that removing mining is going to work at all either economically or make players that do mine AFK actually want to keep playing. Therefore, you're an idiot with an ill-thought-out idea.

There, I showed my working this time. Happy now?


The majority of minerals come from reprocessed mission loot and drone poo. Just saying.


Are you really that naive or just trolling? What?


Normally, just trolling. But tis true, most minerals on the market have come from reprocessed mission loot or drone poo. Miners who think they are the backbone of the economy just want to feel good, they want to think that they are helping the playerbase as a whole by wasting their time on a low source of income/

I'm sorry, are you playing a game or waiting for a code to finish executing? I'm pretty sure it's just the latter. Ergo, your point is invalid because you're not playing a game.

My corp is full of carebears that pretty much do nothing but mine.

They also enjoy it.

No, I can't explain why because I don't understand it either.

The simple point being, some people like mining just as much as you like to blow them up. Missions can get tedious after a while and sometimes people want to sit back, relax and make some isk while watching a movie.

I will rise To dreams of freedom And avow To return the treason that came under your reign

Hulkaggeddon has **** all to do with bots lol

You really are a ******

Hulkaggeddon is a fantastic event designed to do 1 thing and that is make those who produce mining barges and exhumer isk, lots of isk.... lots and lots and lots of isk as well as tears :)

and again.. CCP have already talked about change drone poo to BOUNTIES only

But if you remove mining, then players will find other ways to make isk. Ways which require some form of cranial activity. And the vegetables who are genuinely only capable of mining will quit, thus improving the average IQ of the playerbase greatly.

Oh look. Another case of "Quit liking what I don't like!".

Well, I don't like doing missions. I find them even more boring and repetitive than mining, please remove them CCP.

I agree, seed all minerals on the market so we just don't have to bother with these repetitive, boring tasks in Eve.

You do not sit at a keyboard and watch a laser cycle. You are lying. No one can find watching a download bar finish over 5 minutes over and over again fun, just like they can't find watching a laser cycle fun.

Also I hear manufacturing can be pretty repetitive. And when everything is set up it's uninvolving. Might as well seed all the produced items.

I concur whole-heartedly (sp?). In conjunction with that I'd like to see all gankers perma-banned based on IP subnet and credit device used to pay, and anyone with -10 security status CONCORD'd upon entry into high sec. After all, they ARE the most villainous, wretched scum in the Eve universe, aren't they?
