Most of it stems from hatred of AFK isk makers. Because a lot of miners mine afk, and then whine and complain when they come back to their keyboard ganked or bumped off their belt. People have a problem with anyone who can make isk without having any risk or any involvment in the game. I know not all miners are afk miners, but afk anything, I believe, should never be possible in the game.


You are aware that your statement is contradictory of itself? To clarify, you stated that mining was risk free, and the miners complained when they got ganked in the same sentence. Smile

no, it's just because Real PvPers have no other targets. Especially goons, they killed all and everybody docked or cloaked. They only see miners and want to make them play.

Disturb miners enough till they go in rage and die horrible in noob fitted ship. It generates a 'lol' something the goons can live for.

This post sums up why the 'best' work with DCM inc.

We kill them for isk, the rage and tears are simply a bonus.

We can find all the pvp we want out in 0.0.

...an admission that it is done with the intent to upset and frustrate others.

...and an admission that an alternative source of PvP exists that lacks the propensity to irritate those who do not wish to engage in combat.

Therefore, ISK is not the goal. The goal is to purposely disrespect and irritate people.
