no wonder bm's are causing massive lag when we have macrominers doing this: http://img463.imageshack.us/img463/2310/macro8tf.jpg

They're trying to discourage thieves I guess? 
God I hate macro miners.

Probably an exploit.
Im fairly sure jumping a shuttle with multiple thousand BMs in its hold into a camp is an exploit because it lags the campers out. Dont see how this is different.

no need to kill them all(might be fun, but it's a pita to kill 12 people with suicide kessys / caracals, and i'm not ingame to look, but I assume they are in an NPC corp
so, how to get rid of them
1) petition them
2) POP THE CANS
either ore thiefs(there is a channel i'm sure someone can give it to you, they dislike macro miners too), if this method, make sure the petition is live first otherwise you can get introuble
or a rocket kessy should be able to pop the cans, work with a friend / native locals, when their hauler undocks open fire on the cans
when it becomes unprofitable, they move, when it becomes unprofitable for extended periods of time then maybe they will go away(I doubt it)

Ummm yes killing them im sure is fun but has anyone actually petitioned them.
This obvious macro mining is straight up bannable.
Cmon if they have the same name but with 1-8 and are all mining cmon give me a break. These guys are all over the place too.
Cmon CCP Ban these griefers. (Yes macro miners are griefing the system im sorry)
And please file a petition to the players who see such macroing going on.

i always petition macrominers. i talked to some people and it looks like several have already petitioned this character but he's still there mining away. what really bothers me though is the use of bm's to discourage thieving. the thousands of bm's he's creating is straining the server and causing lag for all of us.

I like em actually.
We get to see the changes the macro'rs make etc. This is an interesting tactic by them.
If you dont care then dont come into the thread, let alone post on it

If CCP would be willingly to publicly state that they will reimburse any losses invovled in wiping out a group of macro miners, I'm sure you'd have alot of people willing to suicide bomb them more often, just that they tend to not do it due to the sec/money loss.

enough with the "enough with the macro miner" comments. ROFL
perhaps petitions just dont work... come on, if a guy has 12 accounts, do you really think its not that obvious to CCP that they are macroers and that they could just ban them. I personally think the effect these people have is way more than anyone can comprehend.

No, the ice miners are whining because ice prices have completely crashed to nothing because of macro miners.

I think we all would agree we play games to play fair... anything that helps a cheater cheat is simply wrong. Anyone that thinks otherwise is naive.
The isk isn't the issue here, its the time and effort.

I have reported these guys multiple times for the past month or so, plus atleast 8 other groups. Guess what? they are still there ....
Just for giggles, logged on a toon in Jita, warped to ice belts. It took over 1 min to just load the screen.
As for just lag related issues, Anchor cans, seen an ice belt with well over 300 cans anchored. This isnt a rare case. Anchor cans should pop in a week. A nice armor degrade on them. Someone wants to keep them, go repair them. ALso how about those "artistic people" making cool designs in space with cans. Gotta love it ....
Yes the BM thing is also just lame to use, azzhats.... that IMO is exploit = Perma ban Creating lag on purpose disrupts EVERYONES game play. Also seen Gate campers themselves using this to trap thier victims.
Another peeve i have that is not helping the lag, around Jita area, are all these big arse alliances gate camping the enemy. I mean really, wtf, ya want 00 space SOOOOO bad, you need to wipe out n00b zones too? If your enemy is is in empire, i would assume they are no longer in 00, hence you won.
But anywho, I honestly cant see how much dmn info a dev needs to prove macro's. Temp bans are total BS. The longer ccp leaves them run, the more damage they do. These are right up there with the complex campers. Eve has turned into Everquest in space. DO something about all those anchor cans too. They were not made to use as bilboards. Promises promises....
ATM my family runs a total of 5 accounts, Honestly, im considering sending all the toons to the biomass. Eve has gone to hell in a handbasket in the last few months. CCP NEEDS to fix the problems FIRST, before moving on to nerfing ships/mods and adding more skills to waste time just to be at the same level again. Oh I meant before they add on new "features".
...Bless me Father, for i have sinned....
BIG _______ TIME!!!

actually the channel to co ordinate counter attacks on MMs is actually the one i created MM killers (macro miner killers) i should get it back up and see if anyone uses it.
Petition suspected cases then join our channel if u have a spare BC (a group of us can go suicide on em or suicide kressies)

How do you KNOW they are Macromining?
It could just be a guys with alot of alts, and not paying attention, and with a bad imagination for char names?
You nor CCP can Say with Absolute Certainty that somone IS or ISNT Macromining, as the only way would be to get a Court Order for his/her place of residence and raid the place.
With a Properly Timed Barge, you can be AFK for upto 5 Minutes at a time, (30 sec before a Cycle Finishes and to drop the next one)

Generally when you have people with accounts named as obvious macros (blah1, blah2, blah3, blah4, blah5, blah6, blah7, blah8, blah9, blah10, blah11, blah12, blah13, blah14, blah15, blah16, blah17, blah18, blah19, blah20, blah21...) which don't respond to stimuli properly, they're macros.
For example, if you move their can far away and they start approaching it instead of their miners, they're macroers using the overview to move around.
In addition, CCP can give them a popup box (this is what CCP does) and see if they respond to it before they move their ore to a can or do some other action. If they continue doing things but do not click OK on the message, they're also macroing.
