500M ISK costs about $15US via PLEX sales. The above figures represent an hourly mining return of $0.60US per hour. Why would you mine instead of just buying ISK? (getting a job if necessary)
I don't like that CCP sells ISK, as I think it broke the game. But since they do, this seems like the only reasonable way.

Pathetic. Everything must be "now, Now, NOW, NOW!!!!!". |

if you're solo mining there's 0 reason to be in a hulk other than stupidity. My '2 Hulks and an Orca' and my Wallet Balance highly disagree.
1 person behind three accounts does not constitute solo mining. He was, obviously, referring to mining in a single hulk with nothing else. |

While I agree with you that mining is a huge waste of time relative to other activities, one of my friends has made quite a bit of isk mining solo while doing other things.
For me, if one is not fully engaged in EVE, you may as well be AFK. Besides, with the necessity of having to either fly back to empty cargo or dump into an Orca, AND switch rocks, and the list goes on, I highly doubt he was doing the other game without issues. Too distracting. I doubt he would notice a gank coming in time to flee to station in EVE.
TBH, your 'friend' probably doesn't play either game well at that point. I'd rather play one game well than be horrible at 2. |

nobody ganks exhumers any more. Reading my posts is like panning for gold; most it will be useless, but occasionally you'll find a nugget of gold. |

Welp, we all have different ways of looking at things. (Otherwise we'd be living in a hive-minded dictatorship.) |

since the barge buff, it's largely true.
simply isn't profitable any more, they bump them instead. have you not seen all the crying about bumpers rather than gankers lately? Reading my posts is like panning for gold; most it will be useless, but occasionally you'll find a nugget of gold. |

obviously you missed the "solo mining" part. Two hulks and an orca is NOT solo mining. |

For instance, he's been hugely addicted to Dark Souls lately so he mines on one monitor and plays Dark Souls on the other. His steam account says he has played 200 hours of Dark Souls, so at 19m/hour (he does have good skills as far as I know) he's made 3.8b isk mining while playing another game.
As for buying Plex, why do anything in EVE when having a minimum wage job is a more efficient way of farming isk than playing the game?
Anyone who wonders why bumpers exist.... this.
