Mining ice or any other ore should require players to move from system to system searching for it, just as explorers search for exploration sites. Mining should be an active and competitive activity in hisec, just as exploration and incursions are.
That's what you would do, but you're not an ice miner. What makes you think that you know what other players should do?

Bye OP. Don't let the doof hit you in the ass on your way out. Kindly contract me all your stuff before you biomass. You will not be missed, as you will surely be replaced by someone more intelligent, more ambitious, and far less whiney than you.
EvE is hard. It's harder if you're stupid.

Wow. Sounds rough, join my corp before you biomass, though. It has the added benefit that you will already have mining permits purchased on your behalf for all your toons before biomassing so you can leave with a clean conscience. |

Hey now that's not allowed. Carebears are only allowed to mine ice near Jita and nowhere else. The rest is goon territory and other nullsec entities.

I am an avid reader as well. So I understand. I often have my kindle open while waiting for fleets to depart, running about the EVE universe, and doing the other things goons do.
Musashi IV wrote:I also like to collect ships all types of ships. Ice pays for the ships and my accounts.
Collecting ships is rather like buying a top of the line sports car and never driving it anywhere. Why would you do this? You could use those ships in the pursuit of better emergent game play and explore other things in EVE. Furthermore, using your miners to pay for PLEX to play for more miners reminds me of those 1980s American anti-drug commercials. I mine ICE, so I can enjoy the game, so I can get more PLEX, so I can maintain my miners, so I can mine more ice.
Stop tormenting yourself this way, there are plenty of players in EVE that will gladly pod kill you and cause you to feel abused and hurt for free. CODE and MINILUV for example are fine upstanding space citizens that will fulfill all your darkest desires of self torment while playing internet space ships.

It appears to me that you are simply suffering the life that you chose in EVE online; being a poor unwashed space peasant. Your accounts are closed because sometimes the dynamics of the space market and their regulations (game mechanics) change. You only did ice mining and didnGÇÖt explore the wide variety of options that EVE online has for players. SOme examples for you;
GÇóJoin one of the renter alliances; explore and exploit null-sec space. Learn to mine while under threat of violence.
GÇóTry Low-Sec mining and dodge pirates while being more profitable.
GÇóDelete ISBoxer and learn to actually do things yourself.
GÇóFind a group of people to work with in high-sec and interact with the larger EVE community while mining as a team.
GÇóStop being the root cause of why the EVE online universe needs James 315, savior of high-sec.
These are just a few of many ideas that if persuid, will brign you out of your position as a space peasant.
Musashi IV wrote: I dont think would be fair to give away my stuff. How would you players learn the meaning of earning your own stuff!!
As though I would want you space peasant welfare checks, you think too much of your meager ice miner holdings, that seem to have disappeared for the most part. I and countless other like me have already GÇÿearnedGÇÖ our way in EVE online though violence, interpersonal relations and working with others toward our own goals and the goals of others that are mutually beneficial.

I actually do not believe you. So you mined ice since almost beginning of eve. Now that the ice fields are well not what they used to be... if that is all you know then that is your fault for really not playing since almost the beginning of eve..... you did read a lot of books though.
bye no one will miss you

a wild Jackson has appeared!
anyway, i used to be a ice miner i used to be a ore miner, now i pretty much just do factional warfare i might mine ore sometime here and there
heres my point, find things to do to enjoy your self, u can't rely on ccp for anything if u been playing for a decade u should know this, but i do hear you out, i myself am 11 years old in the game (haven't spent nowhere that much time actually playing either).
see heres the thing, you are simply burned out so you feel like you are too lazy to do anything else, im in that same vote, you don't have to play eve everyday though just get on when you want to do what u want for a hour or few hours here and there and find other games that satisfy your interest.
Heres a room for thought though, a new game called ELITE Dangerous is coming out with Mining (Finally!) on October 28th when Beta 3 hits, you can give that a try.
and remember a game is A GAME not a JOB, and you certainly aren't its slave either! if you aren't playing games for fun then when u are on your deathbed you will regret your decisions on life and die unhappy

Before you cancel your accounts...............
What if I told you could have all the ice you wanted...........
If you swore me your undying fealty and faith............
Supplied 3b in transfer to this character for this juicy info..........
And bought a mining permit for each industrial related character, for the low, low price of 10m isk a year, and your allegiance to James in your bio...........
Then would you be interested in mining ice again?
And if not........
Stuffffffffzzzz...........

What the OP is saying is that he hasn't really been playing EVE at all, ever. And now that he's forced (...) to perhaps actually do a little bit more he's going to quit. Please PO, try to explain to us what we would miss about you being gone. |

Sounds like eve is a big stress ball for you. None of the solution to your problems require no effort: I'm afraid the multilpayer PVP market has finally caught up with you.
Move to quiet 0.0 space and you get tons of ice to mine and lots of people in coro to chat to. |

I see your problem right here. In contrast, I like to do a lot of different things that EVE has to offer instead of just limiting myself to one, which is why I play EVE a lot. Your problem is not that you can't find ice to mine, your problem is entirely self created, and it's a problem with you, not the game.
