I'll just leave this here.
GM response on bumping.
Change isn't bad, but it isn't always good. Sometimes, the oldest and most simple of things can be the most elegant and effective. |

Where does it say that bumping is only allowed because of the "gam limitations?" All I read was...
"CCP considers the act of bumping a normal game mechanic, and does not class the bumping of another playerGÇÖs ship as an exploit"
The only exception made to this was prolonged and sustained bumping from the same people despite all reasonable efforts to avoid it.

What risk does a miner face that a bumper doesn't?
Why has discussion came down to miners suddenly? Bumpers are more of a threat in suicide ganking scheme. Here they face almost no risks while basically asist criminals and in many cases its them who make this crime even possible. Still, they won't get neither killrights on itself nor criminal flag. Such bumping has a very distingiushable pattern. It lasts for such a long time its highly unlikly that can be done unintentionally.
You missed the point entirely. Anything done to penalize bumping will be turned right back around and used against miners and other indutrialists. All one of them has to do is get in your way... then have a friend who doesn't care about dying bump you into him.
Of course, you could have the mechanics not register the second or third bump... so then the bumpers would just flip it around and bump one of their friends into you.
Quite basicly, your idea is a lose-lose situation for all miners.
