wow, after reading 4 pages of this crap
the guy that said that its messed up because the orcas was on the right track but he stopped short.......follow me here.....
back in the day, you remember, when you mined with an apoc :) mining was the way to make money not missions, now you say that "we are comparing mining to misioning" well fine, but think about it like this.....what happens in a market where you have more supply than the demand? the price drops and you start making less profit, keeping up with me so far? good,
mining with apocs, it took forever to strip belts, therefore the supply was less than the demand,right as the market was starting to find its resting place, now you have mining barges, exhumers, rorquals, orcas, frieghters, the problem is the introduced to many mining ships to close together ,whats that going to do? hmmm? its so easy to strip a belt now huh? thus huge supplies of minerals so the demand is going down, therefor the price is droping therefor the profit is droping. now eventualy it will even back out, but its going to take time (around a year or 2[baring they introduce anymore maining ships or moduals])
now yes you are right missions make entirely too much isk i mean jesus 50m+ an hour conserving? wow....
i'd say it should be somewhere around 30m for level 4's, that would bring it on par, and yes making 30m an hour mining is not that hard, it is harder than missions but people you have to remember the bigger picture, the more people out there trying to make money mining, the less profit every sigle miner is going to get, and let me tell you right now macro miners are not helping that...why don't you all band together and instead of talking about how the profession is messed up because you cant make any money anymore, but constructive....
open up a petition for all miners to sign try to get it out that you are done putting up with macro miners in eve online, you already have one thing going for you... china officially banned gold farming(i think that covers isk), so hey, thats a start.
but as another poster stated, there are plenty of ways that you can stop macro miners, ccp just will not do it...make them as the players, gt enough players to sign, its a start...instead of whineing (which they will never listen to) be constructive, in the petition have a way (or several) to stop macros....
good luck, and for all the trolls out there
flame away at my spelling, or word wall, or, ZoMg you dont know what your talking about ZomG, i have not been here from 03 or beta, but i have been here for quite some time (june of 2004)
