Yes, because bumping your pixels in an internet spaceships game with their pixels is equal to starting wars and the attempted extermination of several groups of people.



******* child.

EVE Online, cold and harsh. And cartoon physics.

Fixed that for ya.

This is RP Red v. Blue, isn't it. * shivers *

"Miners continuing to pay the ransom is what keep the New Order alive. If it wasnGÇÖt profitable, they wouldnGÇÖt continue."

It's top quality player driven content.

Their members regularly spam local chat with profanity and vulgar insults, threaten to harass capsuleers to such a degree that they will either give in and join their cause or they promise to make game play impossible and then the capsuleer subsequently quits playing Eve Online. While the attacks seem at first to be non discriminatory, closer inspection reveals that the New Order regularly targets new, vulnerable players as a top priority.

Yeah...right. And you prolly think those burgers you bag up a Mickey D's are top quality food.

Wait lemme go get my bucket, miner tears are selling for 1000 isk per unit in jita

"Redeem yourself"? That rhetoric is very New Order.

Have fun. Although I agree that miner bumping is a form of griefing, as evidenced by the Evelopedia entry "Bump Griefing", I find the New Order to be an incredibly harmless travelling sideshow of roleplayers.

And the sooner people stop giving them attention, the sooner they will dis-a-mappear.

Bump griefing

Bumping refers to ramming your ship into another pilot's in order to throw that ship out of alignment or to push it away from docking or jumping range. This can be used effectively as a combat tactic to stop an opponent from fleeing, but it can also be used simply to grief someone to hell. Ramming another player's ship is not considered to be in violation of the rules and policies of EVE Online.

This tactic is most notably executed at POS bubbles, where capital ships or other slow-moving vessels in particular may be bumped away from the safety of a shield bubble so that they can be tackled and destroyed.

3 pages already and nobody has realized that this Tolero Guard is the same Torarjan Collective that was featured in James' most recent blog post?

not your personal army, Mr. Salvator.

Nope, I can't see the bumpers and gankers disappearing any time soon, Why? because from what I can see they're having a huge amount of fun running a mini Hulkageddon. I have a vested interest in them continuing for a long time to come, thanks to them producing a huge demand for ships, modules and rigs I'm making Isk hand over fist, from both sides of the equation.

Without destruction, there is no profit.

How harsh and cold.

Just like EVE Online.

...and the best miners are good at either fighting back, or docking and waiting it out, whilst thanking the Amarrian gods for offline leveling.

I think Jonah is confused about what the New Order does. Bumping doesn't destroy anything so it is not the equivalent or in the realm of Hulkageddon.

As for James and his crew, plenty of sabre rattling but they aren't there to fight anyone. The key to extort someone is that they have to be there to extort. Blowing people up would seem a bit counterproductive.

My guess is this is some publicity/scam. By all means join up and give the OP isk if you feel like it.

I seen a dev say the majority werent using disposable alts.

I then see 15 of these cats in local goin on about this James 317 dude and every last one of them was less than a month old.

Its sad when grief is allowed with dev approval and encouragement.

Whole topic makes me sad, Then i remember im not a miner.

Month old alt != disposable alt, the more likely scenario is that they have an alt that is specifically for ganking, it's not particularly hard to indefinitley run around hisec with a -10 bright red alt, and it doesn't burn your main. Many players have dedicated alts for just such a purpose, me included.

E: Alavaria beat me to the punch.

I find it a bit funny how the most prominent, vocal anti-casual, anti-miners are always from across the pond.

But for people who thrive on drama and tears (there are pilots on both sides) have to know that ganker and PvP'er tears don't come in as obvious a form as PvE and 'carebear' tears. You have to look a bit deeper. Like Mallak's forum sig. He's clearly crying that casuals are taking up his highsec.
