And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord, ...when I lay my vengeance upon thee." ~Samuel L. Jackson, Pulp Fiction Now that you've apparently done your research on the New Order, you've made several points in a short space of time. Luckily, none of these are original so i don't actually have to think up answers for them. Anyway, they are:
- Miners don't need permits.
- The New Order doesn't care if miners are AFK.
- The New Order is only bumping miners for their precious ISK.
- I don't agree with what you're doing.
I shall now endeavour to answer each of your points in turn.
Miners don't need permits.
Since we can stop miners from mining, they need to purchase permits from us if they want to mine in our systems. Certainly they don't need permits; they can go elsewhere or stop mining, but they do need permits if they don't want to leave.
The New Order doesn't care if miners are AFK.
You're nearly right. We do care if someone is AFK. We just don't care that they're ATK if they're mining. Look at it this way; a player in EVE can have several levels of bot-aspiration, or how much he wants to be a bot. Actually running a bot program is obviously 10, on a scale of 1 to 10. Being an AFK miner is a good 6; you're getting a computer to do tasks for you with no input from a human after a certain point. Being a miner of any sort is still at least a 4, since you're getting a computer to do tasks for you with no input from a human after a certain point, even if they're doing other stuff ingame.
The New Order wishes to wipe out bot-aspiration altogether. Towards that end, we'll target bots first, AFK miners second and other miners third. That doesn't mean we won't target AFK miners.
The New Order is only bumping miners for their precious ISK.
Seriously? 10,000,000 ISK per year per miner is does not make bumping a good ISK-making activity. The reason we ask for ISK as well as a public declaration of support is because miners have no morals or principles, so they'd obviously have no problem with lying about support for the Order. Surrendering 10 million ISK (ISK being the only purpose of a miner) is a decent indication that he truly supports what the Order is doing.
I don't agree with what you're doing.
*Shrug* Get over it. You can try to stop us if you want, or you can complain on the forums. Neither are going to work.

10mil, and they pay that regardless to be allowed to mine in a New Order controlled system. they can not pay it if they want but it guarantees they are going to get bumped if caught, or blown up. |

The number of miner's who would even pay, with the trust that the behavior is guaranteed to stop, is going to be very very low.
Is that not one of the foundations of EVE Play ? TRUST NOBODY.
Your game was gamed already: by experience and history of behaviors. The concept that this would somehow actually work was broken long ago. |

A Miner bumping another Miner to control a belt for some idiotic reason, does fall within the parameters of Gamesmanship by definition.
Mining and Bumping are completely separate ideas. It's like trying to play chess on a Monopoly board suddenly.
It breaks the game.

Then who do you bump ? |

Then who do you bump ? You continue to ignore the potential gains from the miners' failed resolve yielding 10M ISK for a permit.

To those of you who are attempting to counter-bump the bumpers, godspeed. You're trying to do something, at least, and as I said before that is my only major problem with the AFK miners. They CANT do anything because they aren't there, and no matter how mad they get, they will not change their behavior of letting other people do whatever they want to them. If that's behavior you want to encourage, I say go for it.
Hey, maybe you'll get so good at counter-bumping that you will manage to stop the bumpers! I wouldn't expect much thanks from the people you're protecting though. The ones who are the problem will never see you spending your time and effort trying to help them. |

My money is on the bumpers, here, then.
