Before the guy who says "FIRST, CAN I HAZ YOUR STUFF" says anything.. I'd like to say that I am first, and no.

I'd rather let my measly 150 million worth of assets evaporate with my 20 Giant Secure Containers at Asteroid Belt IV-1, Wirdalen, Metropolis.

These 20 cans are there for me to occasionally mine 78000m3 of ore, without any fear that my cans will be stolen into by pirates who like to come over and target me and ask me to fight them all the time. Since the belt seldomly used, I decided this was a great place to anchor a grid of 20 cans (all 5km apart, 5 x 4 grid) close to the left most side of this belt. so that people who happen to mine at my belt could clean the RIGHT side of the belt if they wish.. and move on to the 6 other belts in the system, leaving me with at least what i need to produce my Small Tractor Beams.

Moving these cans is basically 2 hours of work. I only have a Retriever, and for me the safest way to mine in this system full of harrassing players is the absolute safest way possible. No one can access my stuff.

Today I finished mining 78k m3 of one type of ore I need to produce 22 Tractor Beams. Then I was going to proceed to mine the Omber for the Isogen needed to reduce production Cost by 3 million ISK on 22 units. Some guy in a Hulk with his Orca alt decided to rain on my parade by mining the Omber thats less than 15km away from my cans right after I told him I needed this omber.

There's clearly no argument here as to who is right and wrong. He can mine where ever he wants.. but I have a Retriever, he has a Hulk with more skills and can basically clean out all 8 Omber rocks near my cans in less than half hour. I would only have time to mine 2 in that time period, while the other side of the belt is left untouched, where I suggested he could go while I'm at my cans..

Basically, he is sticking to his "I'm just mining" story and doesn't care about the 12 million m3 of ore in the rest of the system.. Seems he just wants to take what is easily accessible to me. People in the system defend him. He's telling me I'm a noob for mining into Secure cans... from the moment he entered the system, his sights were on the 25 square Km of belt I could mine.

I get mad because this is the 4th time it's happened this week. So I cancelled my subs. Tired of it. Great game, CCP, I deserved to be shunned out, such as what you'll see below this post.
