Look man, I'm not saying you can't smoke crack ... I'm just saying maybe don't smoke all the crack at once, you know?

let your miners spread their legs into the second system...

I don't believe there is anything wrong with my plan as far as mechanics go. The only variable is if CCP would grant their stuck petitions.

There are usually real people operating all these mining bots.

Some theoretical problems need to be addressed, though. First, it would be difficult to keep a constant blockade up. Not impossible, just difficult. Second, there would still be the issue of contraband. People would start to sneak covert ships into the system with stuff to put on the market, undercutting your probes. Or they would simply use those covert ships to escape your blockade.

All miners would have to do to leave is to reset their clones again.

Funny but it still wont work.


A) set clone to high sec and pod yourself or get podded and your free.

B) Whats stopping some miner with a cap ship or any other jump capable ship from bringing in LOTS of goodies or leaving? In fact itd be highly lucrative to bring in a ship full of better priced loot and undercutting you for stuff. Whats a bil isk cap ship to "spend" when you can bring in and sell probes at half your price lets say and make back all your isk by selling only one?


Funny and really all that a lot of null sec is about. Miners, ratters, botting, explo, etc or not.

evil nefarious plan

Also this would be an easy breach of EULA.

Do you enjoy speaking out of your ass, or is it simply a habit?

It would be considered targetted griefing. CCP doesnt mind random ganking, or even some harrassment, but they'd still intervene in a no-escape case like this. CCP would risk a PR disaster, also word would get out very fast about this scam.

Sorry, but you're wrong. It's not targeted griefing, as the only thing that would prevent these "slaves" from escaping would be their own ignorance.

I don't believe there is anything wrong with my plan as far as mechanics go. The only variable is if CCP would grant their stuck petitions.

How can you escape with no jumpclones, no probes, no medical clones, no isk, and no ships, and a gaurded gate with bubbles? A hulk in hisec can escape if fit properly. Even the ignorant need a chance to learn. They won't mine, they'll just quit leaving the person with no slaves, and ccp with less customers. The point of eve is freedom not slavery. Sure things get expensive but even in a WH you can pod yourself to get back to empire. It is targetted griefing when people say do x or quit the game. Eve is about being able to stop doing x and start doing y. What good is it to learn something, and never be able to use it? Why drive a cra if you won't see a car ever again in your life? Those who don't learn will fail anyways, regardless of their situation. Those who learn should be rewarded with greater opportunity.

and/or the people that stop playing those alts.......



alts

Dont think the average miner is SO MMO stupid they wont just make an alt and say "**** your plan"

/thread

They wont have access to the medical facility in the +5 standing corp.

doesn't matter, just leave the corp and you'll get teleported to the nearest low-sec station with medical facilities the next time you die.

B) Whats stopping some miner with a cap ship or any other jump capable ship from bringing in LOTS of goodies or leaving?

A "solution" to the mining carebear problem.

I've never wanted to report a post before. Congrats on being the first. N-azis reference is clear. That CCP hasn't locked it for such is completely BS.

CCP wont act on something like that. Mainly because they will never have to.

I like the plan - Its evil and would fill up a small lake of tears if succesful - Unfortunatly it will never work...

1) To get a pipe like that you would need to take some sov that I guarantee is already spoken for and not given up easily. That leaves joining an established alliance (or rent). That in turn would mean that alot of people would know or figure out your operation. Dont really think there is alot of big null entities that would like the reputation as slave-owners either. Well..maybe the russians idk

Thanks for godwinning my thread bro.

This is an elaborate plan me and some random dude concocted that if CCP stayed true to non-intervention, speil. would be one of the most diabolical ever implemented. This will be in listed step format as any other method would be impossible for me to convey.

Steps:
1. Attain constellation with a deep dead-end structure with a station at the dead-end(This station will need lots of belts).
2. Clear the market of any combat module/ship in that station, including blueprints.
3. Open a Corp that is +5 to the alliance holding the station.
4. Set Station so +6 or higher is needed to access the medical facility.
5. ****-cage the only gate of the dead-end system 300+km in each direction.
6. Set up extremely cheap buy-orders for minerals in the station.
7. Recruit miners into the alliance and walk them through setting their clone at the dead-end system(Offer them awesome incentives if needed).
8. Once they are in the system, give them a mining ship, kick them from the alliance corp, and invite them to the +5 corp.
9. Place combat ships on the exit gate killing any miners that try to escape, sending them back to the station.
10. Profit off the effort of your seriously under-paid slave-miners.

11. If morale becomes an issue. seed the market with really cheap core probe equipment/skillbooks, but VERY expensive probes (Think 4-5 bil per probe)

12. If you system runs out of roids, ****-cage the gate in the next system and let your miners spread their legs into the second system(This can be used as a motivational tool).

13. Win EVE

Hulkaggedon on a bi-monthly basis :)

wait why do people hate miners again?

also if it's high sec, which i'm assuming this idea is vs carebears, just leave the corp lol. could npc corp it up for a while and mine there. if the miner is attacked leaving your system he's traded literally 0 isk vs your combat pilots + you lose security standings with concord (might not care i guess)

if it's in a NPC station of any kind with a medical station, leave corp -> set respawn clone in high sec

if it's null sec... that would be awful. though what happens if you have a jump clone in some sort of corp that you end up leaving? can't imagine you can continually respawn in a corp's assets you aren't in anymore (whatever has a jump clone idk)
