EVE General Discussion

im pretty sure most miners are quitting not over pvp but how ****** the community of EVE is becomming. look at all the rage/hate towards them, they are blamed for every last thing thats bad in EVE online. i been playing mmos since 1999, dont ever remember seeing a group of players so blatantly "hated on" more then EVE miners.

Tenchi, You mad bro?


Where did the goonies touch you?

You know why they're blamed? Because highsec miners, just like other highsec carebears, are bad for the game.

Highsec is supposed to be the tutorial area, with the least risk but also the lowest rewards. There should be absolutely zero profit for veteran players in highsec. If you have the skills to fly a Hulk, you should be forced to move to lowsec or 0.0 to get any money. You should NOT be given a nice gank-free AFK income source like highsec miners demand.

Hulkageddon should be impossible for the simple reason that there are no Hulks in highsec, and therefore nothing to suicide gank besides a handful of tutorial players mining in their frigates.

They touched me on my no no spot and my wife got mad. Told her don't worry, I'm still pure and saving myself for her.

The question isn't how the level of hatred toward the highsec miners compares to other levels of hatred in other MMOs. The question is whether the hatred toward highsec miners is justified or not. Given the history of what the highsec miners have done and are currently trying to do, obviously the hatred is justified.

Would you explain the logic train that led you to this conclusion? How are hi-sec miners "worthless parasites" to EVE? I'm relatively new, but I thought that mining has always been an integral part of EVE since its inception.

Heh, I;d like to know myself.

Highsec miners (and other highsec carebears) are worthless parasites because they wreck the risk/reward balance by making veteran-level income in what is supposed to be the tutorial area, and then whining and crying and demanding nerfs every time someone threatens their ability to carebear AFK with 100% safety.

Miners in general are a useful part of EVE, but they are supposed to be mining in lowsec/0.0. Unfortunately the easy money of highsec, combined with mining bots, drives mineral prices down and kills the appeal of mining outside highsec for the few people who might otherwise make good money there.

End result: lazy and stupid people get rich at the expense of the overall health of the game. I think that's a pretty good definition of "worthless parasite".

Cyprus, there's a group of self appointed elite hard cores who spit on everything and everybody not suiting their high standards.
Like a pyramidal organization they are trying to spread their bile on the whole playerbase in order to create hatred against the category of players with the lowest income, the worst gameplay mechanics, the most outdated and bad implementation of any game ever created.

Their true guilt is to not to have yet burned CCP's headquarters for how bad they made their profession, that leads to absolute AFK and lack of interest, which gets them ganked and derided.

That's about the biggest load of BS I've read all night. All I read was a bunch of "play the sandbox my way or you are wrong"
