FFS just end it already. Nobody likes mining. No, not even you who is about to rage about removing it, since I already know that the second you start mining in your hulk up in high sec, you go afk so that you can do something else while you "play the game" waiting for lasers to cycle.

Just end it already. Let missions be the primary source of minerals, there's not a single one that you can't get from missions anyway!

As far as Ice mining goes, it's terrible, just seed the fuel on the market from NPC vendors.

I'm down for this. When i started eve i maxed out my hulk/orca skills *cringe*. i'd love to put that SP into combat

But... not going to happen for obvious reasons. And it is kinda silly idea.

Good idea. Because lets face it, mining was not designed for actual players to do, it was designed for bots.

Mining is an important part of the economy and provides juicy ganks. No.

Things are only impossible until they are not.

...Why is Selissa's opinion less valid because they choose to post it using a character in an NPC corporation? That's something I've never understood about this whole "post with your main" thing...

Really? What part of the economy is it important to?

NOTHING? EVERYTHING THAT IS DONE IN MINING CAN BE DONE WITH MISSIONS?!?!?!?

Oh wow, guess it's not that important after all.

I'll post with who I want to, thanks, doesn't change the fact that you're talking out of your ass if you think that removing mining is going to work at all either economically or make players that do mine AFK actually want to keep playing. Therefore, you're an idiot with an ill-thought-out idea.

There, I showed my working this time. Happy now?

The majority of minerals come from reprocessed mission loot and drone poo. Just saying.

Let me very briefly expand on why your an idiot

Hulkaggeddon gone.

The Goons Ice Interdiction Gone

A Large part of Industry Gone

Also if CCP do change drone then the only source of minerals becomes via missions

The price of ship would go through the roof and you would be the first to start crying when that happens.

Are you really that naive or just trolling? What?

It's not important to the economy. Everything that is done through mining can be done in missions. You're an idiot and your post isn't well thought out.

Post with your main, troll.
