Gentlemen, we have this month's cat herder. Man your tear-extraction stations.

Also, the economy would stand without miners. The ship market would be kept afloat by people smelting down all the meta-0 to meta-3 items obtained by running missions. T2 modules would go up in price a bit, but lowmeta faction mods can make up for that. Gunmining would take over.


that's alot of missions to run and that's assuming everyone does it, CCP should try it so we can see what happens, ban mining for 3 months minimum!

Respect.Cool

I love threads like this since I usually see an uptick in my revenue streams for ships and modules.

OP, take a step back and think in terms of every single mineral mined and retail good sold should be under the label of your corporation and if it is not those people are your "real" enemy, not some guy ganking you with a ship and with ammo you just sold him making a heafty profit margin in the process.

You have to recognize that pvpers are just the pawns in the game indutrialist play. Blink



Hey Darth are you going to have OP ganked?Twisted

The Miner is a solitairy herbivore, it is rarely seen in herds.

This is why they are easy prey for the Ganker, a carnivore who hunts in packs and has a very complex social structure.

This is why it is less common for Miners to work together than it is for Gankers.

BoBwins Law: As a discussion/war between two large nullsec entities grows longer, the probability of one comparing the other to BoB aproaches near certainty.

Just an FYI to miners, if you hug your barge next to the roid they cant bump you as easily and they most likely will bump someone else. As for orcas, make a safe spot and give your bonuses from there...easy fix.

the orca can be tanked to the point that only professional gankers need apply.

and they are in it for the ISKies.

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

My point on the orcas, is they wont be bumped off grid if they arent on grid to begin with. Therefore denying the bumper the oppertunity.

Ooooh too soon? Naaah lol (for the record I was on the empire side... It was a massacre, but the comms where hilarious... I had fun even if no one else did)

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."

Do you resist the sales tax imposed whenever you buy and sell on the market interface?

What makes a permit fee any less legitimate?

Apparently it's the principle of the thing, dammit.

I predict great things for this new rebel movement. It won't die in a fire like the 20 or so previous ones because this guy has a solid plan. I'm sure it will go as well as that time CCP took a bunch of hisec PvEers to nullsec. A smashing success!

Just in case, in the remote chance.. mind you.. hardly even worth speaking about how remote this chance is... but in case things don't go 100% the OPs way.. I am an authorized dealer of New Order mining permits and am prepared to offer them at the discounted rate of 10mil isk per year.
