I feel mining Veld and Scor should be risk free. No matter what. But for some reason, some people feel that you should be unsafe in any secrity area. If i want Omber or Bistot (or Ark and Spod...NOT) I will go to dangerous space. But I should be free in 0.9 and 1.0 space.

Quote: I have seen Battleships in .8 systems striping belts clean leaving nothing for newb miners.
I've mined with my corp and in hours with Apocs and Megathrons, we can never strip a belt in one session. With usually 3-20 belts per system, even if we managed to erase an entire belt, i think the newbies would be ok. On top of that, the rocks usually respawn overnight. So I don't know what you're talking about. ---------------------------------------

Quote: I overegzagerated a bit but thats not the point of that post. If your in a apoc or mega. Go out further and mine.
There are roids as big as a station there becuase of the new way they do the refills on them. 14K wide you can't even get close enough to mine it.
I often mine bistot. and back in the day arknor. But that's not the point. Our old base had 30K wide roids, but we like high sec space for the security, but so far, all we've had is a bad taste in our mouths. ---------------------------------------

Quote: AFK miners and Carebear miners should be nerfed as well....
First off, are you a DEV? Do you have any idea how they are implementing the system? If you are then i'm sorry. If you aren't then you can't claim to know that exploits will occur since you have no clue on how the system will work in the game.
Second, AFK isn't a problem. I think MORE people should be mining, we mine all day long and can never afford to sell any of it because we need every single piece of tri, py etc for ship prodcution. If every member of my corp AFK Mined, we'd STILL never have enough to sell and get "Rich with no risk". I wish I knew who all these fat cats were, I want to be rich too! I see tons of people AFK mining and they are still in frigates. I don't know why people think AFK is so bad. *shrugs* Is it really that bad to mine 40K of veld? Will this REALLY make you so rich? Why am I mining bistot when i can AFK mine 40K of veld!! with no risk!
Third, using the term carbear....i'll leave it that. ---------------------------------------

Quote: Meanwhile Jash's only argument seems to be "I am strong enough to survive and mine in low security space - so everyone should do the same thing!"
Haha.
I don't know if it was said, but we mine in 0.9 space to help new players in our corp learn about the game. In our corp we all teach and help each other, even if it means we have to take a month off from bistot duty. ---------------------------------------
