All mining should become a mini-game.

i'll agree with you if you tell me how 96 accounts owned by 1 player is damaging the economy more than 96 individual players controlling all of those accounts.

Because if 96 players were playing, they'd all get a share of the profit.

In this case, only one person gains an advantage (to the detriment of non multiboxing miners).

I'd wager there are probably 20-30 market bots in Jita spinning right now, doing damage.

I only see 50 of his fleet in that picture.. Where are the other 47?

Someone should just repeatedly wardec him so he constantly has to change corp on every one of his many alts..

npc corp, good luck with that.

EDIT: Not to mention that since we're doing the whole 96 real to 1 with 96 accounts argument, nothing really changes. He still has to outfit 96 characters, so the isk still gets spread around them unless he's simply trying to achieve homeostasis with those characters.

Ah pants i did wonder, didn't recognise the corp tag..

In that case..

I'll throw a couple disco boats at this if anyone else will?

That's not really economy damaging. As an isolated incident I doubt he's affecting the cost of minerals to any large degree unless he is selling them in some random constellation in the middle of nowhere where he is buying them. If he's shipping to Jita, and it's likely he is, he and most of the other "I ISBOX 20+ MINERS FOR FUN" crowd are likely not even a blip on the statistics sheet of ice costs.

If you don't understand how producing 96n objects for the price of 1 "hurts" the economy,

That one miner has the economy in his hand. As I have said before Miners run EVE.

Miners are fast food employees of eve. Miners don't run eve, they work in the slums of eve.

This is what happens when you multibox 90 accounts. I encourage all of you to do the same.

As you can see there are major downsides. There are much easier and less costly ways to make fortunes in eve.

Look at the price of White Glaze. You guys realize most of the hi-sec White Glaze is mined by massive multibox bot fleets, right?

Of course it hurts the economy. Look at ore prices over time. The supply is too massive, mainly due to stupid things like 95 person bot fleets.

These no life losers ruin the game for everyone

Gee, where's this new order when they're almost actually needed?

The New Order is currently accepting applications for 388 catalyst pilots. When we reach that number of pilots who can be online at the same time with catalysts in the appropriate staging system, we will launch on those macks. If you're not willing to be one of the 388 pilots it would take to do the job, please don't ask for the New Order to handle it. The New Order is made up of pilots, heroes everyone of them, that undock to make a difference every day. Join the cause.

This is the disservice the barge EHP buff has done to the EVE community. Notice how all of the mackinaws are alive and stealing all of that ice from the poor newbie ice miners. Think of the newbies, its time to revert the barge EHP buff.

I agree.

mining barges needed more cpu/pg to fit a tank, not an ehp buff with the same restrictive cpu/pg that leaves slots empty due to a lack of cpu/pg.

that way, those interested and willing to protect their assets can, and those that don't want to are left to the sharks.

It's like you don't believe the procurer even exists.
