That's providing sig/skirmish bonuses from a pos, no one actually flies a Rag. (the skirmish bonuses own.)

I think you mean "Screw Gallente hisec ice miners."

Or is Minmatar ice only used for good?

If not, then why not hit Eygfe (four jumps from Hek, in Metropolis) ... lots of Mackinaw tears there ... 24 hours a day.

http://eve-files.com/dl/248734 -- the Mackinaws numbers you're seeing are fairly consistent 24/7.

Caldari ice is used far more by highsec researchers yet you avoid that lol

For the record. None.

I dumped all my mining vessels because I can't be bothered anymore. As a single player running a couple of Hulks the risk is too great and the rewards far too small.

Malcanis' Law: Any proposal justified on the basis that "it will benefit new players" is invariably to the greater advantage of older, richer players.

I'll join the crowd and sayGǪHow so?

You've not answered this yet.

Answered what? I stated an opinion. You disagree. It's not deserved a question.

Oh sorry. [Apostle makes a fake double take]

Because Tippia asked? That makes it a question? Go back and read all of Tippia's posts. That's all she ever does. Why, What, How, When. She never actually contributes, just likes to argue for the sake of it....

If you told her the sky was blue she'd say "How?", "Prove it?", "Why?". She's as boring as a dead cat in a paddock and about as effective as one too.

Go find a different rag to chew on Mags. Like Tippia, if you need it answered you're in the wrong thread.

That was quite a long winded why of saying, "I have no answer".

1. And the difference between you and me Mittens. I can "confess". I have nothing to fear, nothing to hide. I don't need my knob polished to stay happy.

2. But I sure am annoyed that you didn't read the intent of this thread and see where I'm going with it. I thought we'd actually agree on some points.

3. Highsec needs your help. Shake out your bad guys and go get some missioners as well. Fleet drop some Incursion ops. Shake them up too. Root out ALL of the evil isk makers in highsec and make them pay for their folly.

Bah. Wasted yeah?

4. I seemed doomed to eternal damnation because I post, not for what I post. That's a shame coming from a game with a supposed IQ greater than the norm.

The numbering above is mine.

1. The difference between you and The Mittani is that you do not have the responsibility of running a huge Corporation with numerous Alliances. You have nothing to lose, nothing to hide, because you do not have the responsibilities. The Mittani is happy when his plans unfold - things are working as intended, he does not need his knob polished.

2. You may be annoyed but really, you post and keep flip-flopping with your ideas and suggestions - and then apologise for doing so. You write without forethought, without thinking things through properly and you want The Mittani - or anyone else for that matter - to agree with you on some points ? Methinks not.

3. Highsec needs your help...pathetic. That has nothing to do with The Mittani, why don't you do something about it ? I you were aware of what the cause and effect was and is of Gallente ice, you would not have felt some need to write that. Read what The Mittani wrote about Tobacco farmers. Affect Missioners in Highsec, what, have you finally lost your ability to think ? How on Earth are they even close to affecting the Alliances and the War ? Dream on.

4. It's a shame yes, to see someone with your supposed Intellect stooping to multiple suggestions and definitions which invariably contradict each other. Yes, you are damned in that respect.

Your major failing is blaming everything you do not like on the Goons.
Your major failing is blaming everything you want to see happen but isn't, on the Goons not doing it.
Sound familiar ?

'Nuff said.

I like having my knob polished. If I go without that for very long, I get pretty cranky.

Lolz. Mittens didn't fall for it. YOU did... Ya kissGoon.

(Psst... I think if you put my posts over time into context you might see a pattern. I'm playing games. It's a forum - a great place to play games. I am getting sooooo killed in Eve sitting in a station all day fondling my coins.)

I made a really dumb post

Answered what?

I stated an opinion.

It's not deserved a question.

Because Tippia asked? That makes it a question?

Go back and read all of Tippia's posts. That's all she ever does. Why, What, How, When. She never actually contributes, just likes to argue for the sake of it....

GǪand in doing so, I contribute far more than the people who make unsupported assertions, because I actually try to discover some answers. The problem is that it's so very rare that people have any, and then the thread shifts to them trying to avoid having to come up with any (which just makes the lack of answers even more obvious and egregious) and me trying to make then think about what they say (which is apparently an unforgivable sin).

Stopped reading there.

If that's the best you have then it is no surprise that you feel your posts are damned.

You're not interested in answers per se.

You fragment discussions to find a point of contention.

You then create a question out of an isolated sentence and play the sanctimonious intellectual when people can't be bothered answering the questions you manufacture.

You repeatedly type the same question over and over and exclaiming loudly when people won't play "bite the bait", as you did again in this post (mostly deleted for brevity).

Of course I am. Otherwise I would ask for them.
No. I question the assumptions and assertions that created the discussion.
GǪor, more accurately, I question the assumptions and assertions that created the discussion, and get suspicious when people are not able to back them up with anything, because this hits at them being false, or at least based on false premises.
No, I repeat them because as it becomes increasingly apparent that the assertions and assumptions have very little basis, I am interested to find out where they're coming from and why they're being thrown around as supposedly self-apparent facts.

By the way, how is suicide ganking an issue?
It's kind of important to know if we are going to discuss alternativesGǪ

Start a blog Apostle.

Yer doing it again Sunshine.

It WAS answered way long ago. I said ASK THE VICTIMS. You came back with a "oh clever me" incorrect assertion so you musta missed the point yeah?

...since you can't answer the question.
No, I came back with a question. You see, you made the assertion, so you back it up. Your answer can mean two things as far as I can see:

1. You have asked them, and have an aswer, but aren't willing to provide it for some unknown reason.
2. You have not, and thus can't provide an answer.

So I ask you: how is sucidiing an issue? Do you know?

Like I said before numbnuts, ASK the victims. It IS a problem for them. In ADDITION to the fact that only miners are easy enough targets for gankers BECAUSE of Concord intervention. No other play type is affected by the gank mechanic.

So I ask you: how is sucidiing an issue? Do you know?
