Yesterday agressive players destroyed my minning barge in hisec. I bought it for ~40 millions with equipment, now I lost everything.
It was done by group of players, who do it intentionally for long time. They use cheap ships for 1 million, twink characters and take no punishment that is supposed by game mechanics. They killed my ship, capsule. Concord destroyed 1 ship. Then they killed other miners for no reason.
I asked why, they trolled me, replied some pathetic nonsense, that I am so bad and useless because I mine asteroids.
Do dev allow such things intentionally? Shouldn't they be punished? What sence is in high security systems if any troll can kill you and have no bad consequences with exept to losing 1 million ship and bad security status for twink character?
If i mine, trade or play PvE then I spoil game and can be offended by other players? Bad, I am tired of boring PvP in other games, I was intersted in mining, trading e.t.c.. Should I leave EVE not to spoil game to great teen PvP players? |

It's part of the game. Fight back, hide or quit. See section 7 for further clarification.

Just learn from it. People are the danger in EvE that's why it's so good :)
It's a mistake to go for max yeild and not bother to fit a tank, this was your lesson.
You can either move to an area of space where you will be safer (research), or fit your barge for tank and be less of a target.

That was 0.9 system. If so, what sence in playing other roles than PvP? If any agressive school boy on cheap ship can humiliate you in any time and don't have any problems? |

Yes, the devs allow it. It's part of the game that stuff blows up - even in highsec. High security doesn't mean it's perfectly safe - just safER than other parts of space.
Your mining barge had no tank fitted at all. Concord will come and destroy the attackers but it takes a couple of seconds before they arrive. If your ship is paper thin Concord will be too late to safe you. The people that attacked you are part of a corporation that is known for ganking. Set them to a negative standing and watch local to see when they enter system.
edit: Also: don't fly what you can't afford to lose. Putting all your eggs into one basket usually ends badly in Eve. |

Remember, highsec does not mean that you are secure. It is just space with different engagement rules from low or null. Since EvE is a sandbox, this means that even though you don't want to PvP, it might still happen that you become target of someone elses PvP. The faster you accept this fact about the game, the faster you will learn to adapt and not be a victim. |

Dont blindly listen to people telling you to sacririce yield for tank.
attention will easily keep you safe with minimal effort and a proper fitting without sacrificing yield!
and no again, security status doesnt work like that at all. there are no system wide ship restrictions or recommodations. :)

Sad to read it. Well, ok... Will know that miners in this game are a little odd. One button gankers are more important. Ok, I must stop whining. :)

Yes. But sad that I can't pay for that, as they use twink characters. ( So, you can do bad things on 1 character, while main one is unaffected by bounties and low security status. |

If you're dead set on using a Retriever, look into alternatives to public belts. There are security missions that have asteroids in them, and level 1 security missions can generally be cleared out in a frigate (or, at worst, a destroyer). Clear the mission's rats, but don't turn in the mission. Bring your barge in, mine, and keep an eye on DScan.
Additionally, take a look at zKillboard, see which groups lose a lot of ships to CONCORD, then set those groups to -10 (Terrible) standings. Fit your ship with a Higgs rig, and if one of them shows up in your system, align to a station and set your speed to 75% max (aka, warp-out speed). If they show up on-grid, warp out.
The key critical part is that you have to be actively at your keyboard to accomplish this, and not draw attention to yourself. Whining on a forum is a pretty quick way to drawing a lot of attention to yourself.

The people who blew up your ship also brigade in these forums.
You will be told to go play something else.
But there is no dishonor in doing so. Many others have gone on to play something else and are happier for it.

passive aggressiveness.
you have no ground to speak to people like that.
that you are pissed about people shooting you down is okay, the fact that you take it so overly personally isnt.
its a game. if you identify with your character and mistake ingame with reality ... ... you will constantly make enemies.
you smell like carebear... *sniffsniff*
i urge you to reconsider your approach! this is not a game for serious escapists!

To take it a step further, you should actually leave one rat (it will be easy to tank) so that the mission completion is not triggered, this will allow the site to regenerate after downtime and be used everyday for the 7 days before the mission expires as long as you don't trigger the completion. Get a few of these going and you will have more ore than you can possibly mine.

Speaking as one who doesn't mind sacrificing the odd Catalyst on the altar of the mining gods, if D-Scan shows only Skiffs & Procurers, I tend to look elsewhere. If it's Retrievers & Hulks: game on. When you have a -9 sec status anyways, it's one of the more esoteric uses of a highsec static WH connection.

Nope, all of the mining barges and exhumers can be used anywhere; they do however fall into 3 groups, each of which trades various stats like ore capacity, range, yield, cycle speed and tank against each other.
Procuror and Skiff, built like tanks, they have a smaller ore capacity than the others and some offensive capability. Retriever and Mackinaw, huge ore capacity, decent yield, while being squishy unless fitted not to be. Covetor and Hulk, tiny ore capacity, much higher yield and a better range than the others, best flown in groups.
If you want to mine unmolested by gankers then you need to get off the beaten track, some areas of hisec space, some surprisingly close to trade hubs, are virtually empty and the belts go untouched.

Get a few of these going and you will have more ore than you can possibly mine. Can confirm that you'll have more ore than you know what to do with, some of which won't naturally occur in the faction space that you're in.
Taking this even further, if it's a gated deadspace with multiple gates you can use D-Scan (set to an appropriate distance for the first gate) to see anybody that tries to enter the area; because they have to use the gates to get to you.

Use a Skiff or Proc if you are mining solo and are in a populated system, Check Killboards to see if people come by and gank in the system you want to mine in.
Use a Mack/Retriever if you going to be in a dead system alone, somewhere where you can see a gank coming before it happens. Keep an eye on local to watch for baddies. Keep align to a station in order to warp away quicker.
Us a Covertor/Hulk for group mining ops. Usually it be used with on Orca.
Like sol said, Mining ships have roles that they are meant to fulfill. If you are using a ship for a roles it's not intended for you will pay for it someway or anthor.

every account has room for three characters and a many pplayers dont hide behind alts.
your assumption is invalid and stems from the wrong perspective that they are somehow bad. or that you are somehow good, which you arent just as much.

(Unless of course you mean you were 'tired of boring PvP' quite literally; in which case welcome to Eve)
Like others have said, use a procurer if you are dead set on mining in high sec. Or alternatively find a dead end system that has barely any traffic. There is a lot more to the game than high sec mining though.
