IMO anyone doing that should be banned from EVE period....

I would call it Darwinism

Yeah I don't think any one would swallow that.

Kind of like an oil company creating a massive spill and saying Darwinism.

Plus Darwinism is more to do with a species ability to adapt, yes the strong attack the weak over scarce resources but at the end of the day you will not find many members of our society that will praise those that attack the defenseless.

As I said call it anything you will it is still cowardice.

Why can't EVE players act like real life pirates and go after the warships of large powerful nations which offer a real challenge, rather than merely picking off unarmed haulers full of valuables? Sad

Oh did I miss the statue someone put up for these pirates?

I thought they were hunted for being scum and people tried to put a bullet in their heads, my mistake. Big smile

I believe the commonly accepted method is to try and whine them to death.

I look forward to the day he gives up and quits.

He wouldn't be the first to campaign against highsec and AFK miners.

I mean hell, if something as organized as Hulkageddon didn't deter us, then I doubt another twit from the UK is gonna make any kind of reasonable impact for any decent length of time.

Sure, he may be making a ripple or two now, but things will eventually return to normal. They always do. Eve has been here for nearly 10 years, and AFK miners are still in abundance.

Earlier today, the Dixon Mining Guild and the Butz Manufacturing Corporation formed a coalition.

It's hard to tell if there is a light at the end of the tunnel for the Dixon-Butz Alliance.

If he does, it certainly won't be due to the actions of miners.

Well he's from somewhere over there, according to his blog's timezone. Seems all the pilots who look for attention by being disgruntled by miners and highseccers are from over there.

Personally I am happier to call a coward a coward rather than saying that they are some how better because they are not even big enough to be a real life coward but have to be cowards in a video game.

It would be quite the challenge.

Five Hulkageddons plus a 'permanent' one did nothing to AFK'ers.

That works for freighter and haulers but not miners...

Not that I am against the destruction or bumping of miners. Just wondering if it can really be called piracy? How do we call the attack of production means if it's not done by a country at war anyway?

The blog's timezone is EVEtime, which is coincidentally the same as England's at the moment.

Because then it would be good, effective roleplaying, instead of acting like the schoolyard bullies they are.

And every time a ******* idiot miners buys a "permit" they have, in effect, given them his/her lunch money.

My second clue was how he spells select words. "Honour" being the main giveaway.
