because KB > ?

Nope, I'll take your numbers as gospel as presented.

My original point being that out of how many got destroyed, how many actually came to the forums and raged? 1%? 2%? Hell, go out crazy and say 5%???

Because 95% *NOT* raging is not a bad turnout (if it even *was* that low - I'm thinking out of all the thousands you killed the actuall

And knowing where I *live* is going to make me pay you? How are you going to make me pay you is my next question? I can move around, I could hop in another ship. My point is sir, you cannot ever make me pay you 1 isk. You think because the op is crying that every miner is going to cry. Your mining bump means squat to me. I can do other things, I could even move to a new system and keep making you follow me. But one thing you will never do is make me pay isk for getting bumped. LOL. I have 2 kids, I know how to deal with children. Your issue is this, you think these forums paint a picture of everyone who plays this game. So if you want to come extort from me, do your own looking. Just know you will waste quite a bit of time. I am also one of those AFK cloakers everyone cries about. I will leave the game on all day while cloaked.

You are quite funny.

What we want is to educate miners, to force them, by our actions, to take up arms or to find a way to evade us. If they are doing this, they're actively contributing to EVE as a game, rather than being semi-bots AFKing in a belt all day. If they're out ratting or PVPing or even station trading rather than mining, then we have succeeded.

This would be more believable if you left people not afk alone, but you don't so it's not remotely plausible.

It is, however, still hilarious. As you were (just at least be honest about it )

As you can see, you are therefore not the intended target. I have no interest in forcing you to pay for a mining permit. Congratulations.

It was enough to convince CCP to buff the EHP of a ship . . .

[I'm afraid that you have woefully misunderstood the purpose of the New Order of Hisec

bot aspirant.

Yeah, we hear this a lot. However, the New Order also views miners (even at their keyboards) as having a greater-than-desirable level of bot aspiration. I mean, seriously, even if they're there, they're still accomplishing tasks that have an effect on EVE's economy without actually doing anything.

So yeah. It doesn't awfully matter if you're AFK or not, you're still a bot aspirant.

Do you have proof that it was actually the "miners" whining that resulted in this change by CCP? Not trying to be pedantic here, but tbqh - the whole "miner in hi-sec = the devil" seems like a manufactured controversy to me.

That sounds like quite a serious personality disorder. It's good you're making an effort to help those who can't help themselves.

Which has been manufactured entirely to get J315 (an alt of whoever) elected to the CSM...

It most certainly is serious, and we do our utmost to help these poor individuals. Thank you for your support.


Actually the New Order was set up by a little-known TEST faction with the intent of eventually garnering enough support to elect [/i]me[/i] Chairman of the next CSM, so that I can persuade CCP to finally introduce a ship dedicated to fans of My Little Pony. At the moment, we're considering that the ship bonus should be +5% friendship to all ships on grid, but we think CCP might say that's a little bit overpowered. So we'll maybe have to rethink that.

Yeah.

No update to barges for over 6 years

Goons do ice iterdictions

Forums explode with miner rants for months

CCP buff barges.

Yea, I cant see any link here...

Yeah.

Perhaps you want to spread the word internally then, I see a lot of these posts saying "don't be afk duh...." as if it will help

Btw - they affect little more or even less than market players who are never undocking

Finally, as a full time mission bear I find the idea that ratting is in any way better hilarious. Mine, rat, its all the same: ctrl+click F1, ctrl+click F1, ctrl+click F1, ctrl+click F1.


Though don't mistake this post for a "waaaaa stop it" as I said, it is hilarious - as you were

The only people who don't like high-sec miners are the people are described earlier in this post. People who feel the need to coerce others into doing things their way. YOU would prefer me play a certain way so you grief me. It's lame and stupid and I'm salivating at CCPs obvious actions towards this in a patch.

They did evolve in one way, their tear ducts are now attached to their fingers

EVE is a game that allows and encourages the kind of thing James 315 is doing. Rather than figure out ways to counter those ways or stop HIM, you choose to come on these forums and ask for CCP to fix it and make it all better for you.

THAT is what we don't like about you, because you are whiny, entitled, Welfare-esque people who put no effort into your own well being , not the fact that you like to imaginary laser imaginary rocks to death. I like to imaginary autocannon imaginary guristas to death, I could hardly dislike miners for their "playstyle".

But keep believing your "playlist" is the reason, if that makes you happy.

Summer of Rage, CCP starts working on FiS, **** changes and all the while the game still goes on.


So, again, any proof or not?

We call this burrying your head in the sand. Try not to swallow too much while you yell "lalalala".

I'm sure they can deal with swallowing some stuff while yelling.

And I call that "avoiding the question". Seriously, do you know or not?

Proximity =/= Causation.

Counter-bump?

You already got the answer. Its up to you if you want to dismiss it because you don't like the truth.

"Blessed are the swallowers, for by their actions they show their love for the Saviour of HiSec." - The Gospel of James 315, The Book of Gratitude, Chapter 6 Verse 4

Still waiting for Issler to pop up in one of these threads and lead the miners to freedom, or something. I guess they aren't *that* important until election time rolls back around.
