MIners ultimately control the economy. They need to use their power. Leave us the f**k alone or we keep raising prices. Easy.

@Galaxy Pig/James 315
are you bumping and possibly ganking non-afk miners (the potential is still there) and charging them for permits they don't need ? You know, the ones that are playing properly. Sorry, your website is not very clear on this part of the subject. If the answer is no, how do you determine that they are afk? Because they don't respond to private chats or talk in local? What if they just want to ignore you or not to be bothered with your silly game? I know when I first started playing, I didn't afk mine but I didn't talk to a soul either. Now when I mine, I still don't talk to a soul in game because I use this handy 3rd party program called teamspeak. Much faster communication than typing everything out. And I don't have to respond to annoying in game spammers or con artist that try and send a private chat.

In theory the bumpers will bump bots so it'll be those at the keyboard who have the most sucess mining.

Welp, I highly disagree with CCP Falcon.

Just because he works for CCP does not make his opinions the Word of God.

You disrupt playstyles (forcing industrialists into perpetual wars that will not stop) you kill the gameplay.

And folks will indeed leave.

Have fun on your empty server.

No.

Well i mean i dont want it to go to wast. I could really use it to give to a rookie.

Then they'd fail to grasp the nature of the declining value of AFK mining now, wouldn't they?

Eh but i like cheep ****

You folks are mentally ill.

Wait wait, we're missing a big point here, EVERY miner must purchase a mining permit, not just the AFK ones.

So tell me, how does the "New Order" spread

I'm guessing they'll get the occasional miner convert.

Beyond that, random null zealots with time on their hands are the only other demographic I can think of.

James 315 might say "Every Eve Citizen should consider service in the New Order." Or something like that.

Miner converts will probably be the big one though I think.

Looking at this map on his sight

http://www.minerbumping.com/p/maps.html

he claims ownership of these areas

In that case it will take months to reach amarr space. a good year or two for it to be eve wide!
and a good 5-15 to be accepted as the norm.

if you've gotten so bored with a game that you decide to destroy other peoples experience, you should probably quit. requesting people to talk to you in local seems like a sad request for attention, if youre whole code is based on AFK mining is bad for the game, youre just a dense person with a robust vocabulary. Like the code said, people have kids, wives, and other obligation to attend too, just because some loser request that i have to speak in local, now i gotta carry my laptop to the bathroom while i take a Shtt just in-case i'm being beckoned? Bot mining is bad? how about bot ratting, i don't see no action taken against them, from neither side. this in no way is going to make someone a "better person" or improve the game.

I do not claim to have numbers for projection, but you're right there are a lot of systems in Eve.

At least you can narrow it down a bit if starting with the ice systems.

Tu quoque, or 'two wrongs make a right', is an automatic failure of an argument. Two wrongs do not, in fact, make a right.
