Now i have played eve for about three years so im not a newbie. I have noticed that here recently WE MINERS are now being harassed by ppl who think we need a permit to mine. These ppl have forgot that if it was not for us MINERS eve wouldnt be able to stand. We mine, we build, and we put things on market for others to buy in which we make a pretty good profit off of and now we are being asked to pay for a permit. Yes i know that they say that its only 10M per character but if we give into this my friends and fellow miners we are opening up for a lot more to start happening. Look at history the governments that have caused wars within their own countries have taken little by little from their own ppl until finally their ppl had enough and its the same case here in eve if we allow them to get away for this then later on down the road they are going to keep asking for more and more and til there is nothing left to give.

So what i am asking is until these ppl that think they need to govern use pull back and stop this non-sense we raise the prices is eve's market and hold them high. If we do this it will open eve back up to free mining like it should be.

thank you for your participation

So the next cat herder arrises to give it a go Big smile

Quoted from Doc Fury: "Concerned citizens: Doc seldom plays EVE on the weekends during spring and summer, so you will always be on your own for a couple days a week. Doc spends that time collecting kittens for the on-going sacrifices, engaging in reckless outdoor activities, and speaking in the 3rd person."

If I own a retail outlet here in my country, I can deny sales to whoever I like.

If we industrialists could have a filter to do the same in the EVE market, it would be a welcome dynamic, in my opinion.

Sorry hon, but yes, you are... if you where not, you wouldn't feel the need to even make a thread like that. The New Order is a minor nuisance, and all miners in their right mind simply ignore them.

hopefully in before Ero...

Although, can you not see the benefits of proclaiming your support in the anti-bot and anti-AFK mining problem? I mean, these people spend no time of their own mining rocks and only serve to drive mineral prices down for the "honest" miner (generally right now, a permit holder).

RP aside, they actually are helping you out in their own way. Plus, they're breathing a bit of life into hisec; normally dominated by the worst griefers in EvE -- the ones who continue to hold onto the notion that their gameplay is "special" and they should not be interfered with, to the detriment of the gameplay of the people who interfere with them.

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

Well im not for boting but i am for ppl leaving US Miners alone and I agree eve should make a system in which ppl puting things on market can choose who they sell to that way it would be easier to make a black list of these ppl who think they need to force a code on other ppl in which they do not choose to live by.

no need to stop selling the ore's just raise prices.

one of two things are going to happen

1. Prices stay high because they wont stop trying to force us to get a permit

OR

2. They will stop forcing a permit and prices will come back down

YOU CHOOSE

End of thread, move on - the OP has been answered.

Its time to stand up against the bad empire based CEO telling falsehoods about what new characters can accomplish and pushing them towards an in game experience of drudgery and loneliness keeping them in the shadow of ignorance for at nest their own profit at worse apathy towards all the experiences that Eve has to offer.

Why would The New Order need to buy ore? They have invincible ships

It's surprisingly easy to dodge the zealots if you're not AFK-mining / botting.
