So you don't actually have anything to contribute to the conversation other than "lol I'm a 13 year old who can't read?"
Good to know, I guess. |

Coming as this does right at the start (though early) of Burn Jita and the coming Hulkageddon events, there is the possibility for a very real turn around in the current trends in EVE.
But there's a chance that CCP will completely screw up and decide to try to nerf ganking and non-consensual highsec PVP in response.
That's why we have to remain vigilant against the AFK Botting Asshats that are ruining EVE.
I do have to correct you however, Burn Jita hasn't started yet. We were just bored on a Thursday night. Really. |

The fun thing is that years ago I tried joining multiple 0.0 corps for mining and all of them refused. They only accepted pure PvP players, only 2-3 directors allowed to do industry. Then today I read how bad are miners who don't go to 0.0, figures.
The damage was done by the time you applied, alas. We're actually all hoping this recent shakeup with minerals will make it so that we see some more Nullsec Mining. And the idea of Ice being moved to Null or even Lowsec is still appealing, if only to pull these AFK Botting Jackasses into someplace where they can be properly handled by the sandbox.
Simply put, there should be a reason to be in Lowsec and Nullsec besides love of PVP and empire building. There isn't any.
Move L4 missions to Lowsec. Move Ice out of Highsec.
Bleed some of the fat out of Highsec and we'll see the game continue to improve. |

I'd be more annoyed at the fact that 4 people can kill one guy, and his 3(or 6, or 16) friends can't do anything about it.
Oh, they could, but that would require they not be AFK Bot Mining. |

Jump in PVP ships and fight back? |

The fun thing...years ago.... Then today I read how bad are miners who don't go to 0.0, figures. That's because being someone who only wants to mine doesn't change when you go to 0.0 AFK mining is one thing, but being horribly surprised when you return and are in station because of being blown up and podded is another. How much people will afk mine in 0.0 depends on various things, but blaming CONCORD when someone catches and kills your hulk/covetor isn't a factor.
"But, but, I didn't wanna PVP, I just wanted to cheat and AFK Bot Mine in peace. CCP, FIX CONCORD~! BUFF MY SHIP!! NERF PVP!!!"
Part of the problem is that mining is so god awful boring that you would have to be autistic or a bot to enjoy it. |
