thank you GSF and corestwo

by any chance does someone know of any gank crews looking for more DPS? or other solo gankers looking to group up? my lowly 2 week alt can't take down the tastier stuff alone Sad

Well, you should be able to take down covetors while you skill up. It'll give you some good practice.

but i want it NOW

That pretty much debunks the hundreds of myths perpetuated furiously about a GSF-CCP connection.

Time to put away your tinfoil hats guys.

if only mining involved more than locking up as many rocks as you have beams (or your ships limit), activating your beams, and watching the ore flow in.

I'd love a good thread for brainstorming ideas to make it interactive, less bot friendly, and perhaps make it more interesting too for ppl who wish to oppose/kill mining ops. I mean surely a 7 second barge bash cant be all that exhilarating, even if the killer is anti miner

you shouldn't have to tank one or a hulk. It's a mining ship.

Do you think BP or Shell half fill their ship just incase they sink, no they brim the sh!te out of them and get the oil to market a fast as possible.

People with ADD and "other issues" living in mommy's basement need quick fixes for their attention illnesses. This comes with ganking in EveO.

Mining ships should indeed come 'pre-armored' to the 9's.

Go out and whack a RL ore extractor with your fist and then tell me that is not armor.

But see, you can't equate a gank catalyst with a guy trying to punch things unless you scale the target down as well. In this case, ganking a hulk would be equivalent to a guy punching a wet paper bag. Not an ore extractor.

Thinking you don't have to tank your mining vessel cuz, ya know, it's a mining vessel. Clearly a tank is in order. Don't bother thanking me, I'm happy to help.

I am tired of just sitting there and mining.

Why a fist?

I don't understand the persistence of this painfully obvious false analogy wherein all mining vessels = Bagger 288 and all frigate or destroyer class ships = a human being, either unarmed or armed with anti-personnel weaponry.

Why not, e.g., a couple of rounds from even the smallest of military/naval vessels?

A few rounds from even a man-borne anti-materiel rifle would do serious damage to most/all RL vehicles that are in any way comparable to Eve's mining vessels.

The weaponry found on even the smallest of first-world naval vessels would reduce them to rubble with trivial ease.
