While i'm not trying to start a flamewar, i can't understand a thing. WHY null-sec corps don't recruit 20-30 dedicated miners for them, just for having all the supply they need, be it ice or ore, and pay em' a nice amount of iskies? They don't even need protection sometimes in the Blue donut sea, and it's hell easy to do. Instead of having to deal with logistics and freighters, just grab 20-30 "High-sec" carebears, and bring them to null. Don't make them go to war, don't make them be in comms all the time, just let them mine and sell the minerals to YOU (And ONLY you, no shipping to Jita at ALL) and there you go, your own personal supply.
Oh! And make them mine ice too if needed (It can be the corp tax) for your fuel needs. I've seen a LOT of corps searching for miners but they ask them to pvp too......Hell, i would even move this alt to 0.0 to mine for ANYONE if i didn't have to deal with the CTA's and the drama, i've even set up an industry at totally fair prices, a FULL null-sec industry.
But no, the word "PvP" always appears, the sp requirements always appears (When you can mine with as low as 1.2m sp). Why bother with all the logistics when now you have a real chance of doing it all in your home.
With this change, i expected a flood of "Miners" recruitment from 0.0 alliances, but i saw none, or too little (Just being curious). So what's the problem ? Do you think that a pilot who mines for your corp/alliance only is not worth it? That is just a carebear ?
I'm sorry to make this analogy, but for example, jets must be made for RL war, do you think that the enginner or the people that assemble them are not worth the same as the soldier who pilot them, that they are not important?....
Sometimes i really don't understand 0.0 people in this game.
Note: This ended being a rant...i'm sorry, but it's something that troubles me deeply...why indy pilots are denied a place in 0.0 warfare and relegated to the "Alt" role......
Note II: No....i'm not an indy pilot xD
