Hitman88 wrote: Now i have played eve for about three years so im not a newbie. I have noticed that here recently WE MINERS are now being harassed by ppl who think we need a permit to mine. These ppl have forgot that if it was not for us MINERS eve wouldnt be able to stand. We mine, we build, and we put things on market for others to buy in which we make a pretty good profit off of and now we are being asked to pay for a permit. Yes i know that they say that its only 10M per character but if we give into this my friends and fellow miners we are opening up for a lot more to start happening. Look at history the governments that have caused wars within their own countries have taken little by little from their own ppl until finally their ppl had enough and its the same case here in eve if we allow them to get away for this then later on down the road they are going to keep asking for more and more and til there is nothing left to give.
So what i am asking is until these ppl that think they need to govern use pull back and stop this non-sense we raise the prices is eve's market and hold them high. If we do this it will open eve back up to free mining like it should be.
thank you for your participation
The reason you're suffering is because you are a peasant who does peasant work, and you've deluded yourself into thinking that you are something other than a peasant by constructing a fiction in which your peasant work is necessary.
In reality, the absolute worst case (for the rest of us) outcome of your little outburst (assuming, generously, that you could even organize such an event) would be that the price of minerals would rise to a point where the price:effort/time ratio became comparable with other mechanisms for earning in Eve, at which point mining would be more attractive (at least as far as income earned is concerned), and this increase in value would draw previously-unwilling-to-mine players to fill the gap, and a new equilibrium price would be shortly reached.
You would then realize that you had wasted your time and, what's more, the increased prices would entice you to return to mining. You and the rest of the peasants would resume your peasant work, prices would return to their current state, and the net result will have been that you denied yourself weeks or months of mining income in exchange for a brief period of increased margin.
If you don't like this, the solution is simple: Go be something other than a peasant. |

Dear artistically inclined folk:

2. Space pheasants.
3. Space pheasants bringing down the French Empire.
Photoshops, please, pretty-please. |

Seriously, I can't believe how disappointing the GIS results for "Space pheasant" are. Someone please do something about this.
It doesn't have to be big - maybe just a pheasant with a little space helmet, whatever. |

Citation needed, CCP have been dialling down the NPC orders for the last couple of years, and I've never seen a sell order for minerals or ores with a >90 day lifespan. Tinfoil much?
He was ranting about this in S&I a day or two ago. He thinks it's the reason that mining is bad. It's pretty funny, and nobody bothered to correct him. |

He has however logged in with the alts that he kicked out of corp mining.
Great way to make to make stand.
I don't believe this for a minute.
Space Pheasants are a proud and noble creature credited with bringing down the French Empire. |
