I was flying thought minmatar space the other day on my way though low-sec towards the forge. Noticed a CONSTANT stream of newb corp shuttles and haulers. The traffic never slows down. There must be HUNDREDS of them.
Who are they?
What are they doing?
AND WTF PIRATES WHY AIN'T YOU KILLING THEM ALL!!!!!! 
I came back the next night and still the same massive traffic of newb alts in haulers and shuttles.
Anyway, just something I noticed.
The lack of pirates.. was disturbing

They are isk farming macro's. Seriously. You can pop 500 of them in 20 minutes and they just keep coming back. They don't drop anything of value so unless you are just out to farm km's and corpses, there isn't much point.

Killed about 140 of them in an hour or so, then the 'real' pirates came and tryed to gank me at the station, while ignoring the hauler traffic.
I wonder do they still buy their cargo expanders back @ 300% market price?

Its really not worth popping the macros, unless you plan to farm them on gate with a few SB BS and check the wrecks for the implants they sometimes try and sneak out into empire.

That. You only get to farm loads of haulers, for what reason you might want to do that. Eventually some other pirates (or the 'guardians' of the farmers) come to kill you. The haulers usually only drop courier mission items, if even that.
Noone bothers with them because it's simply not worth the time and effort.

Ok, well then after the new patch hits and they cant make insta-alts anymore without some work. Why doesn't a mod sit in system and a have a field day banning these obvious macro'ers.
Yeah yeah! that's to much to ask!!

It's not breaking the EULA to run missions.
To ban them CCP either need a) evidence that the isk is involved in, say, iskselling, or b) evidence of macro (and we all know the obvious 23/7 miners, so CCP doesn't seem to have very good systems to check that kind of repetative traffic/nonstop activity), or c) show some goodwill.
Or all three of it.

Old news tbh, As for why pirates aren't killing them, it's because it's a waste of time and yields 0 profit. |
