After working a twelve hour shift I still want to play eve - but dont have the motivation to do much, so I mine. Typically I just hold on to most of the minerals to build what I need in my hole. ie, more retrievers

hitting D-scan every 2 seconds isn't worth it to me.. if I fill my ore hold a few times, the ship has already paid for itself. my retrievers are an offering to the wormhole community

I mine gas in wormholes to make t3 crap.

I mine ore in wh;s to... make t3 crap.

I mine ore in wh;s when bored. I used to use the array and wait the 3 hours. I never really did it for profit. Now I have not decided if I want to mine more then I need for t3 materials or not yet. Still debating

OMG Comet Mining idea!!! Comet Mining!

this. I die so much that another mining ship loss is meh. Will be less of an issue with rhea as if I forgot to clone upgrade i'll be good.

I have moved a retriever into every WH I've ever lived in. Used it in anger twice. Once to bait someone in their home hole (didn't really work), once to legitimately mine ore for w/e the **** the indy dude I was mining with wanted to build. I should have prolly just given him the 6.5M ISK out of my wallet instead of leaving my alt there for 2 hrs when she could have been camping a hole for pew but I honestly and legitimately enjoyed it.

I live for PvP. So does my corp/alliance. We are oldschool WHers. Cap Escalations make waaaay more ISK. ****. C3's make waaaay more ISK. But that doesnt' stop me from depackaging and re-rigging that retriever in every hole I move to. For some reason I feel like mining 'should' be a peaceful, mind-calming thing to do in WHs.

You will get bubbled and podded but this has already been explored in great detail.

Hey you lazy mining bums - get into Thera and sell me your ore! This could be a good compressed ore market. Importing pre-built ships to Thera will be more difficult than establishing an industrial presence.

Not that I mine enough to supply anybody in any reasonable way, but hauling it to Thera might make sense. We'll see how things settle down after the first month. I just don't see myself docking anything serious, like my Prowler, in there. The chances of getting trapped in the station, or just plain blown up, seem pretty high.
