Why do you hate miners? Why would anyone hate miners? It seems counter productive. They're such a great source of income.

I am pretty sure Ghandi wouldn't have issued IRL threats to people that ganked his mining ship. I am also fairly sure he had nothing against people taking pieces in chess and can't for the life of me imagine he would have cared about people shooting imaginary space ships in a spaceship shooting game. It is hard to imagine anyone less like the average high sec miner than Ghandi. Money at its root is a form of rationing. When the richest 85 people have as much wealth as the poorest 3.5 billion (50% of humanity) it is clear where the source of poverty is. http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2014/jan/20/trickle-down-economics-broken-promise-richest-85 |

Like it or not, EVE has a real economy and in real economy every link counts. If someone wants to shoot rocks all day, let them. Cheaper ships for me.

I may strongly disagree with you. I may enjoy our passive aggressive back and forth. But no hate. At the end of the day, we're just two nerds playing a silly internet spaceship game.

Agreed. I was finding it funny though as I think I was seeing a few posters that were insulting each other while also supporting someone else they had previously insulted LMOA |

I honestly don't feel that I am trolling (at least here today). As far as the anti-carebear crap. I am anti-carebear, at least Jonah's definition of it. Not anti-PVE mind you, more like anti-whiner and against ideas (like perfect safety) that soften the edge of this great game that we all love.
I'm bitter and old and that's how I like my video games.
Besides, this dichotomy is a good thing imo. How ******* boring would this game be (and by game I of course mean the forums) if we all thought the same way.

I don't hate miners.
I do, however, hate bad attitudes, and game mechanics that enable them. So while I do hate the act of mining, I don't hate the people who do it. In fact, you could say that I blow them up so often because I love them, and I want them to be freed from the toxic activity they've been enslaved by. Not posting on my main, and loving it.-á Because free speech.-á

Unless there is some miraculous event giving me double my current free time (like...getting fired?) I don't see that happening in any timespan you might reasonably call "soon".
I'm always watching the miners though. Always listening.

Actually, we could get all our ore from reprocessing. Prices would rise dramatically, but its possible to get everything in game without mining(except maybe ice?).
I certainly wouldn't recommend eliminating mining without something else to replace it. |

I've been pointing this out for years now. I've caused thousands and thousands (literally) of them to die to my Hulkageddon events. I've caused over a trillion and a half in damages to miners alone in this fashion.
...and they still sit AFK in a belt in an untanked mining barge
At this point I believe the answer to your question to be: "yes, yes they do."

Miners are like that little skinny kid in school whose pant cuffs are too high, whose hair always sticks up and everyone makes fun of because they know he won't or can't do anything about it (ignoring for etiquette's sake recent violent counter-examples). So, OP what you see in the miner is your own insecurity about yourself. You see yourself as a vulnerable, funny looking kid and you hate that about yourself. When you gank that little fella you're really trying to kill that part of you that you are afraid of and that you hate. In effect you are trying to kill yourself. However, you will always be you and until you realize how beautiful you are you will seethe with hatred, and envy those psychology well-adjusted folks who mine in EVE. |
