Well, if they get smart Highsec Miners can always move to wormholes, plenty of gravs, no ganks, T3 fleet on standby just HOPING someone tries to scan you down so they can ambush them.

why isnt null like this? last time i was out there and saw a miner in a belt, he POS'd up and never left, neither did a fleet arrive even after half an hour fo me sitting outside aforementioned POS.

k-space makes me sad, you have Local and your STILL scared to take on a maller in a 1v1.

You know what happened today? Boat got a supercap kill by baiting it.

One guess what ultra-important module was used.

To me it looks like a smart, roleplaying money making scheme. More emergent and effective at grabbing ISK and attention than anything else though.

Reading James 315's blog is one of the highlights of my day. Clearly there are more efficient ways to acquire isk. This is sandbox gameplay at its finest, where YOU and YOUR actions can affect the whole shard. Look at how many threads we have had about the New Order in the last few months, hell CCP is probably gonna change the game and nerf bumping because of them, which would be a travesty.

All because most players want to take the little shreds of content from developers in a sandbox game where they, the player is given the tools to generate their own content, and then just run it into the ground doing the same missions over and over and over or mining the same belts over and over and never seek to interact with or affect their system, corp, alliance, region, constellation, or server doesn't invalidate the New Orders playstyle.

Except that this isn't actually true at all.
There are lots of things to do against the New Order,
but people simply aren't smart enough to do them.

*shrugs*

In the long run, the miners will win as long as they play their own game and don't let the New Order tell them what that game will be.

Please come up with things you can do against them that don't achieve the new orders ends.....
Since counter ganking them is achieving their aims.

Rant against me.....!

Thankyou for proving my point by abusing me as if I am unable to adapt to anything, rather than listing the nebulous 'lots of things' you claimed would be practical that would work 'against' the new order. I personally am quite able to adapt, nor do I whine about gank attempts on me.

As for Yuri, basically, yes, you are right. hence why I say to just ignore them. I'm yet to get bumped by one of them, though I don't full time mine myself, so they may have just missed me. And even if one day I do, I can just basically ignore it, if I don't react other than continuing mining, they don't get a win.

Yep, from what I can tell, there are only 21 registered users on the Minerbumping forums, and there haven't been any comments on the blog for several hours, so they came to GD for reactions.

Great job, capsuleers, you gave them what they wanted.

I ignored them, they moved into position to bump me.... so I went into orbit. They tried to bump me, missed, tried again, and again, and again, missing each time while I laughed a little harder than I should have, then eventually they just flew away and I wasn't bothered again.

They made you adapt and pay attention to the game.

They won.

That would only hold true if he was not already capable of adapting and was not paying attention to the game.

Ore Miners already pay attention to the game. The whole 'AFK Ore Miner' is a myth. So The New Order don't make an Ore Miner pay any more attention than they already do to the game, hence, no victory.
