mine in out of the way systems, and/or fit a buffer tank. laugh at code when they spend more in ships to gank you than yours is worth.

As far as they know you've been playing for years and three months isn't new anyway. The reason you don't know a lot about the game is you haven't cared to learn. At least now you know the first rule of Eve, don't fly what you can't afford to lose. |

As someone already touched on, you want to be the least attractive target for the suicide gankers. If you are going with exhumers I recommend this setup right here:
[Skiff, .I.. Code] Damage Control II Power Diagnostic System II Power Diagnostic System II
Medium Shield Extender II Medium Shield Extender II Adaptive Invulnerability Field II Adaptive Invulnerability Field II EM Ward Field II
Modulated Strip Miner II, Veldspar Mining Crystal I
Medium Core Defense Field Extender II Medium Core Defense Field Extender II
Hammerhead II x5 Salvage Drone I x5 Hobgoblin II x5
This little baby has serious beast levels of buffer hit points on it. It will make any group of suicide gankers cry giant baby man tears. Make sure the drones are out and set to not focus fire so when the suicide gankers come and smash their pimple filled faces against the brick wall that is your tank - you get on as many kill mails as possible. Also be sure to have the shield hardeners pre overloaded and not active. Then when they start to land next to you, turn them on.
If you are running command ship level shield links as well, we are talking well over 190 thousand EHP!
I know you may look at the harvesting levels and think about adding mining upgrades, but let's be honest here. Why harvest rocks when you can harvest suicide ganker tears?

Again you are mistaken, this is general discussion. Hang out a little more and you shall see a very strong vein of posting that has little to do with role playing, gankers or sensitivity. There is however frequent discussion of wood working.

The biggest problem with your statement is "how i should continue my solo mining career." Eve is not a solo game. It's a highly social MMO. With that being said, you are always in danger at anything you do in Eve. I suggest you make some friends, pay attention to local and who lands on grid with you..and use d-scan. If you don't know what these things are or how to use them, that's exactly why Eve isn't a solo game. You need some friendly guidance and advice..but be careful, there are those who give bad advice to new players (assuming you are new). I truly believe that the people who give bad advice are also those that would suggest that you cannot play the game solo.
However. You seem to have misinterpreted what he meant. When he says 'solo mining career' he means to mine by himself, and not in a mining fleet or with player corp mates.
He has supposedly played for a time-span of under 4 months, so I would assume that he thinks that a player corp is safer/more profitable/better in every other way. A long time ago I used to think the same thing.
Friends are fine. Game mechanics are fine. Third-party tools are fine too. You can play the game in any which way and you'll still succeed no less. |

Why harvest rocks when you can harvest suicide ganker tears? Because they're probably going to scan you before attacking a skiff.. And they'll decide there are easier skiffs to gank.. So you'd never get attacked by all but the stupidest? Even without scanning, they know it's a skiff which is a ***** to kill. |

No permit needed....just go to where they never go (khanid works) and mine away in peace. The only law in highsec is that of concord, and they don't require permits. code are criminals who break the law by ganking...you certainly are under no obligation to cooperate with them. |

Absolutely. State of High Sec and wardecs being as they are, if the OP really wants to play solo there is no benefit to him joining a high sec indy corp. On top of CODE, he'll have to deal with the plethora of elite high sec pvp corps. In an NPC corp he just deals with CODE and the odd suicide ganker.
Safety in numbers doesn't really fly in high IMO, you're just advertising a henhouse for the foxes to come in and eat their fill. |

Because they attack players in high security, their own security ratings get shot to -10, and as such the NPC Navies do hunt them when they enter the space where you are. So they don't have much time to check your age, check your history, check wtf you're doing, and so on. They just see a juicy target (mining ship) and they take it out. Not true. Not even remotely.
I am surrounded by idiots.
