My chars have been around since 2005, I get what eve is, but this is just pure nonsense.

I haven't really played in 3 years. I figured I'd go out and try some mining, hopped in my Mackinaw and started some mining. I made a few million isk selling to locals who were looking for veldspar. After about 5 hours I was ganked by a pirate gang. Not too surprising, but since this seems to be the thing to do, and I like to mine I'm not suprrised.

I appreciate the game as it is, but doing nothing but mining velspar and selling tritanium to people equates to losing 200m isk while I'm in the restroom... Well I get the appeal, it must be awesome to spend a few million to grief a dude and his wife. Good on you folks, and you've driven yet another pussy off the game, since I'm obviously too pussy to stick around and get griefed.

Immortalis you've driven away yet another longtime returnee.

Clearly we need to buff mackinaw EHP, amirite? I mean, why shouldn't you be able to make endless, effortless space money "while in the restroom"? Roll

Can I have your stuff?

Also you got ganked? Seriously? They just buffed the hell out of mining ships and you STILL died? LOL

You got owned and came onto the forums to cry about it, LOL

A+ trolling to whoever killed him AFK mining, which is against the ToS to begin with

For what it's worth, you all still can't get laid. But getting ganked is still normal. Please tell me more about how much mining is overpowered.

If one can't go to the restroom while mining then I'm sure ya'll have had plenty of ToS violations waiting for Battleship rats to get killed while taking a ****. It's a matter of cost vs reward. If it only costs 20m to destroy 200m then it's a loss to reality.

Wow you have a wife, good for you.


Doesn't change the fact you're a ******* idiot and managed to get ganked after the barge buff.

You could have... you know, docked.


No sympathy for foolishness. You gonna be afk, even for a few seconds, in a game that prides itself on being able to be killed at any time in space, you should be in a station or accept the consequences.

I really should have docked, it's pretty obvious now that people are lame enough to wait around for someone to have to take a ****. I mean I've been stalked before in my life, but never had anyone wait for me to **** to take advantage of me. I'll make sure to dock every time I have a bodily function. As it's obvious eve pilots get off on watching people in the loo.

Why didn't you just dock up if you were going to go take a dump? Again, your fault for being uncautious

Didn't realize people were after the ships that create the industrial lifeblood of eve. It's cool, off to 514, atleast there it makes sense when people are raping the economy they rely on.

When I have to take a bio I have to dock, when I'm ratting. When I'm PVPing, i have to dock. How is it that you're a special case?

One of the bitter points of a good bittervet is the realisation that all those SP don't really do much, and that the newbie is having much more fun with what little he has. - Tippia

I just log and let the pretty ship warp while I'm away. Don't understand your last statement, they have cameras in your house? Seriously.

Yeah, the game and player base has changed over the years not for the better. People's idea of fun seems to evolve around how can they **** off someone today. I've kind of got bored with flying through gate camps in high-sec and getting scanned a lot of the time whilst they sit about in their disposible Tornados waiting for a juicy target. So I've closed this account and transfered the assets to the last remaining account of mine. Don't know how long I'll keep that open though.

When your ship died, the value of my trit went up just a tiny fraction. Thanks for losing!
