Anything CODE says is Role Play, and shouldn't be taken seriously.
So the answer is very simple, and you can absolutely continue solo play. You are not 'fully safe' anywhere, but you can take precautions to ensure that such a thing won't happen so often (if at all).
So, add the alliance "CODE." as a contact, and set them to -10.0. When they appear in Local, they'll have a red mark on their portrait, and you'll be able to see it, so you'll know what they're going to do. Dock up preemptively.
But the biggest thing you can do is don't be fully AFK. Check your D-Scan every now and then, and browse Local when you feel like it for players with Negative Security Status (positive Security Status players can still gank you, but it's less likely. You always lose Security Status with Highsec ganks).
Stay aligned (facing) [insert celestial object here] so you can warp out quickly when you see someone on grid.
Getting a Procurer or a Skiff is also a good idea. Do you need a new Barge? |

So, no, it is a sandbox game, you are able to do whatever you want, it is not illegal to mine in any part of New Eden. People can of course kill you... Anywhere. So it's up to you to be prepared in advance, and predict the situation ahead.
You can 'be safe,' but don't think it is a given right. |

It's a PVP game, people will PVP. It's also an MMO, meaning that other players will affect your attempts at solo play. Finally, the game has been out for 10 years, and it's been like this for 10 years, so that gives you an idea of the chances you may have to change the game towards more protection for mining, if that's what you're looking for. |

I can't say that I don't feel sorry for you, but EVE provides the tools to PVP anywhere, with whoever, whether they like it or not.
Treat it as a learning experience, because you can't not make mistakes. Move onwards, I guess.
Tech I Mining Barge is fine, right? I don't... Really... Want to replace a Mackinaw. |

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.
Sorry but you don't get special status. Nobody does. I'm an alt, flying an empty shuttle worth only 10k credits, nothing in the cargo, I got killed. What was the point? Certainly nothing to do with me or my ship, they were just looking for kills and fun.
This is the game. |

guys that ganked you gank for fun. if you buy a permit from them, they will take your isk then gank you.
if you mine in systems off the beaten path, you will be OK.
you can mine in null-sec, or in wormholes, both are safe if you use intel tools and are part of a corp. more profitable too.
EDIT - i highly recommend you join a null-sec group and mine in the deep back-end systems they have for this purpose. the profit is 3-4x the profit of high-sec minerals, you have access to regional intel tools, so someone shows up 5 jumps away you know about it. You can refine your ore in stations for a small tax i guess most corps take, then sell to that station or run high-end minerals to empire via wormhole chains yourself if you know how to scan. You will get ganked every now and again, but because you are mining high-end null-sec ore, you dont really care, you replace whatever was lost in 1 hour tops. |

You don't need a permit and being in a mining corp is counterproductive. Being AFK or not doesn't really matter.
The only thing you need to know is this. Be a harder to kill target than the other miners in your system. That's it.
The best way to do that is by training some shield skills and fitting a decent buffer tank. Also, keep in mind that some Exhumers are inherently harder to kill than others. The trade off is that they mine slower. A decent trade off in my opinion.
One other thing is to get out of populated systems. Find a nice backwater place that is 6 or 7 jumps from a trade hub and 3 or 4 jumps from low sec.

Yeah, there is no benefit for a hisec miner to join a corp, it will only expose them to wardecs and awoxers.
Judging from your kill mail, your tank skills must be pretty bad. You should probably work on those, along with fitting skills and other core skills. Maybe stick to the small tanky barge/exhumer in the meantime. And fit a damage control in one of the lowslots. |

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).
Do not let the name "high security space" fool you into believing you are safe. Gl and fly safer.

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?

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. |

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. |

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.

No, you do not need to buy a permit. CODE. is a player group that uses an old tacktic to extort money. Pay them and you get 'protection' from the mod. Don't and you get ganked. Just move to a different system away form the hubs, there are tons, you just need to move. Then you don;t have to worry about code.
Or fit so you cna tank them long enough to run.
Or pay there extortion money. But thats doens;t meam you won;t get ganked (reminds me i should make an anti code group to gank the code paying miners.. hmm....)

I disagree with your opinion that CODE. are a griefers alliance.
IMHO They're a pirate/criminal group with aspects of roleplay; normally manifested in the form of tongue in cheek religious zealotry.
They run a protection racket in which their modus operandi is to kill people who aren't paying attention and attempt to extort isk from them for a "permit"; something which is currently allowed and is within the rules established by CCP.
Their AT performance is completely irrelevant in the context of the OP's original question.
At the OP; no you don't need a permit to mine in highsec, what you do need to do is to take precautions against the likes of CODE.
Set standings to them @ terrible using the personal standings mechanic, which will highlight them in a rather fetching shade of red on the overview and in local.
Treat highsec as dangerous space, choose and fit your ships accordingly, Skiffs and Procurers excel at discouraging gankers for the sacrifice of a little yield. If you have to go afk dock up, watch local for people who have terrible standings (see above) or who have small skulls next to their names. Don't rant at them, or you'll end up being an object of ridicule in local, on the minerbumping blog and in their forums.
CONCORD would like to remind you that the only thing under their protection is the doughnut shop found on level 2 of the food-mall in every station.

CODE. is a high-sec ganking alliance. Anything CODE says is Role Play, and shouldn't be taken seriously. So the answer is very simple, and you can absolutely continue solo play. You are not 'fully safe' anywhere, but you can take precautions to ensure that such a thing won't happen so often (if at all). So, add the alliance "CODE." as a contact, and set them to -10.0. When they appear in Local, they'll have a red mark on their portrait, and you'll be able to see it, so you'll know what they're going to do. Dock up preemptively. But the biggest thing you can do is don't be fully AFK. Check your D-Scan every now and then, and browse Local when you feel like it for players with Negative Security Status (positive Security Status players can still gank you, but it's less likely. You always lose Security Status with Highsec ganks). Stay aligned (facing) [insert celestial object here] so you can warp out quickly when you see someone on grid. Getting a Procurer or a Skiff is also a good idea. Do you need a new Barge?
It never has mattered what way you are facing as your time to warp is dependant on how long it takes you to get to warp speed and the direction your ship is facing has no impact on that. It will take the same amount of time if you are facing where you are warping or if you are facing the other way. |

Of course you don't need to buy one - just like you don't need to fit tank or stay at your keyboard. But if you want to mine unmolested in New Order territory you better have one and follow the Code.
Whether this safety is worth the paltry 10M ISK/year is up to you. However if you listen to some of the advice here and forgo the permit, please don't come the the forum next time you explode while mining and beg CCP to make highsec safer for you because you chose to mine without one.

.5 sec - Ignore it. It's like .4 sec. It pretends to be high Sec with all the limits of low sec and none of the benefits. .6 and .7 sec - Skiff or Proc. A Mackinaw can work in .7 sec but it's not needed. .8 sec Mackinaw .9 and 10 Retriever
Hulk and Covetor are junk, they got no role bonus and high sec doesn't have large enough rocks to justify the high maintenance needed to keep the beams cycling.

Piracy is part of the game, but pirates want easy kills. This means they will frequent high population systems and ice belts. Find yourself a low-population system in 0.5 or 0.6 and they might never bother you.
Alternatively you can fly a Procurer and/or tank your barge. But then you have to weigh the significant loss in yield vs. the money you'll save from being ganked. I strongly discourage flying a Hulk or Mackinaw in high-sec. |

The actual answer is, yes you do.
Now the ISD is correct that CCP doesn't require it. The anti-Code posters are also correct, its your choice. You can try the, mostly bad, advice they provide. Of course, they don't provide you with any actual support to allow you to defy CODE., being forum alts, but they make very brave and defiant posts here where they are only ganked by their own rediculousness.
But here's the thing. If you choose to mine in a New Order system, those with sec status between .5 and 1.0 without a permit which is only one part of the full New Halaima Code of Conduct (www.minerbumping.com), you are subject to the following:
1) Bumpng 2) Ganking 3) Destruction of your corp or alliance 4) Confiscation of some or all of your ingame assets 5) Public humiliation at your impotent defiance on the www.minerbumping.com blog
OR you can make the very wise economic decision to buy a mining permit for 10,000,000 ISK for one full year, good for all of highsec. You still have to follow the rest of the Code of course.
Lots of miners and other highsec civilians have made the decision to forgo a permit. Almost 62,000 ships and pods, over 9 trillion ISK of illegal mining and hauling equipment has been the price. Over 1 trillion ISK in December 2014 alone. And yet you have posters here saying CODE. is a joke and that you can easily avoid them. I'm sure the 5122 pilots who died to CODE. in December would like the chance to rethink their decisions. Often the lack of a 10 million ISK permit cost them multiple billions in losses.
Heres a way to know who to believe. Go to zkillboard and look at the killboards of the people here giving you advice to defy the New Order. Then look at the killboard for CODE. I'm assuming you are of average or even higher IQ. The answer should be obvious.
Contact the Agent who told you that you needed a permit. Send him 10 million ISK and agree to support James 315 and the New Order of Highsec. Go to www.minerbumping.com and read The Code. Follow the VERY good advice you find there and get on with your life in highsec. Or don't buy a permit.....
We'll be around directly.

So just use the other cash you had saved to buy another Mack. You weren't flying something you couldn't afford to replace were you?
Cus that would be down right stupid wouldn't it?

there are many places you can find in highsec to mine, just mine far away from any market hubs or noob starter systems and then you should be fine
you do not need any permit what so ever (even if you buy a permit from them they will still blow you up) cause its a scam

This isn't true at all. Zetaomega333 you should potentially spend more time learning eve and less teaching it at this stage.
Being aligned means you are already moving at or above warp speed in the direction of your warp destination.
If you are stationary you will take the same time to reach minimum warp speed regardless which way you were originally facing. That said if you are stationary then you are not aligned (see above).
If your ship is moving but not in the direction of your required warp alignment this can either mildly or very seriously effect the time it takes you to actually enter warp.
If anyone wants to message me i'll teach you a trick to warp your battleship so fast it doesn't have time to turn around and warps off sideways or even backward :D

You literally repeated what he had just said.
I had thought direction affected align time.
In my first post I had meant 'stay aligned' as in stay facing the direction of warp-out. Mining while at warp-out speed is rather daft, as you'd overshoot the Asteroids you are mining rather quickly.
I appreciate Zetaomega333 telling me this.

OP - A little more advice from a CODE member.
We are, as you have perhaps discovered, an extortion racket, as well as a bunch of people that love shooting spaceships.
Whether you acquiesce to our demands or not is entirely your choice. If you elect to do so, you will have our word that we won't attack you - you can decide upon the worth of this word yourself. I personally have shot a permit holder exactly once, and that was after establishing that they were almost certainly running a bot. (I also reported them to CCP for doing so and provided extensive evidence, and a few weeks later they posted a thread on this very forum saying 'waa I was accused of botting when I wasn't and got temp banned').
If you elect not to do so - we will, of course, have to shoot your ships some of the times that we see them. If we do not do so, we devalue our permit product. We may not come for you tomorrow, or next week, but we have a pretty wide reach in highsec and can definitely project force elsewhere when we see fit.
The gank was nothing personal. In other MMOs, you wouldn't use a potion that cost a third of your total in-game wealth, no matter how good its temporary effects are. In EVE, you shouldn't undock a ship you cannot afford to lose, as your ships are always mere consumables. We just help speed up the consumption process.
If you really want to learn how to avoid suicide ganking, by far the best way is to gank for a while. Learn the limitations gankers face, and learn to exploit them.
Mining aligned to safespots above and below a belt, for instance, dramatically increases your survivability and only reduces your yield if you stuff it up. If I saw a belt with one miner bouncing between alignment to an above-belt safe and alignment to a below-belt safe, and a second miner orbiting an asteroid, I'd gank the orbiter.

1. You used the word "Aligned" incorrectly so can't really call me out on this.
2. If mining while Actually Aligned seems daft to you, you aren't smart enough to make your own safe's for when you mine. These safes will allow you to be aligned for warp 98% of the time you're mining, you just need one each end of your usual mining systems.
I didn't repeat what he said, i added some information that is actually quite relevant to alignment / warping. Regardless if you know enough to notice it

(No whiteknights either, its business) However this "bad" choice, are in fact the best choices: - Do not be an easy target. - be watchful of you surroundings. - move you mining ship, standing still makes it easier to jump on you. ganking ships have a short range and gankers have a short time window to act. - get a decent tank that could keep you alive until concord comes. - being in a group reduces the chance that "you" are chosen. - do not talk to codies, since thats where they are "fishing" for emotional reactions, or stories for their ridiculous blog. - join a corps and move to nullsec.

Of course we can demand a permit. The New Order has made a claim on all of highsec and we back up that claim with guns.
We are playing Eve like it was designed by CCP.
Buy a permit and get compliant with the Code or risk losing your ship, or better yet, come at us with your own guns. It really quite that simple OP.

No, you do not have enough guns or firepower. But you DO have a lot of alts. No much use after the last multibox changes.

Imo, since it is so popular, your group has a chance to educate the new players.
Think about this: the average guy comes from one of any sweetheart MMOs out there where the worst they ever experience is when somebody "steals" their mobs / NPCs. They also come with the idea that the MMO developers HAVE to code in some certain "path to level up" and "end game".
EvE is not any of that. In EvE you, me and also the miners ARE and create the content themselves. That's what sets EvE apart, it can't get old as long as people "interact" in a more or less explosion happy way.
Of course I don't agree on racketeers so I'll hire an high sec merc corp to deal with them but that's fair and square content creation on our behalf. Those who come on the forum to ask how to avoid interactions, how to "solo in peace" etc. etc. are actually doing EvE a disservice, because EvE is based exactly on interactions. Of course the above is different than asking for advice about how to become a less desired target (which implies the guy is willing to challenge or at least "be present" on the scene), I find this to be OK enough.

Truly, this is the best option, embracing both the letter and spirit of the Code in bringing emergent gameplay to New Eden - though you'd perhaps be surprised how difficult it is to get a carebear to actually fight back.
Hell, you could give them a free combat ship and they probably wouldn't get in, citing "principle" or something.

A wheelchair? Anyways, a permit is only 10M ISK and is good for a whole year. For that price, it would be silly not to by the permit - almost 10 trillion ISK has been destroyed by the CODE. alliance alone, much of which would have been spared if pilots just paid the pittance for a permit which even a highsec miner can earn in an hour or two.
Even if you think it is unlikely we will find you, it just makes economic sense for that extra bit of safety while operating in our territory.

Ask a hundred highsec miners if they remember who CCP declared the winner and I bet you will not get even one correct answer. In fact, more will probably answer Code than anything else.
This is more proof that emergent content and our brand of elite PvP trumps inconsequential structured "PvP" in this beautiful sandbox that is Eve.

currently the best way to counter ganking efficently is to be somewhere else as a solo Miner. Eden is big enough to find a system where gankers usually do not show up.
Ganking looks for 2 factors in general: a) targets b) time to take those targets down.
If you are in a 0.5 System with lots of miners you will likely get ganking attention. In a 0.8 or 0.9 System with 5 - 10 Miners gankers are less likely to show up. The Security rating in a system tells you something about how long Concord needs to jump into the system and destroy the ganking ship. The amount of miners show you how much fun there is.
You can be ganked in all system, it is a question of firepower the gankers bring with em.
BTW I am not sure about 1.0 System, it maybe that this system because they are starting systems, ganking maybe sanctioned by higher authorities. As a beginner I would try a petition in this systems. (I think it is fruitless elsewere)
Beware that not all Gankers are part of CODE. There are some not flying the ganking color right away. I recommend to start chatting with other miners in the system. They can share the information who to look out for.
"Solo" ganking always consist of a pair of 2 ships. 1 for Ganking and 1 for scouting & looting. Knowing the scout can also be a good preparation.
Be carefull with Combat Drones. They can be used to lure you in a attack position. I am unsure if this ganking tactics is prohibited or not. The Operative loss and the trouble is yours to start with. If you are a good skilled Drone pilot 2 combat Drones are usually enough for High sec Pirates. You may want to deploy the others 3 as defensive (repair drones) or E-War drones depending of your style of operations. Defensive drones can help to enhance your defensiv capabilities further in a mining fleet. E-War Drones can cause the ganker to loose target, which is imho most efficent tactics to survive in a direct confrontation. Time is always on your side, and the Drone Damage does not matter imho you will not be faster then concord. Win time until the Caverally shows up.
Skilling is one of the most important things when you get into a confrontation. Especially with gankers. Since as pointed out the defensive Attributes are most important, you should look up following certificates and keep those in shape. (you find them by clicking on your portrait in the menubar and select the Skills folder + Certificates tab)
- engeneering -> core Spaceship Operation
- Shields -> Shield tanking
- Shields -> reinforcment
- Armor -> armor tanking
- Armor -> reinforcement
I hope this thoughts helps miners to make it more chellangeing for gankers. Please consider the other advices too. The fitting posted earlier is nice, however you need the skills for it. And you need to understand how the fitting is working. Why it is working. I had a lot of fitting discusions, and the most annoying ones were those in which people throw fittings around them without understanding what the fitting was doing and why it is better then another fitting. Even if the ones shown were apropriate, the discussion was fruitless since they could not argue on another fittings performance compared to theirs.

Look the best way to avoid bottom feeders is to not hang out on the bottom.
That might mean taking your mining operations into a corporation with their own space.
As someone who spent a good month high sec mining (im a new player) and now mining in nullsec....its a big mindset difference.
In high sec there are so many random people everywhere its hard to know, even with setting corps -10.00, who you need to avoid, without learning the hard way over and over. Its easy to glaze over, ignore whos in local (too many to track tbh) and not have a good escape plan or escape fit because, well high sec, your automatically off guard.
In null (and im sure low) sec, you can pretty much assume that non friendly locals are there to gank you, and its easier to take precaution until you get someone to get a visual on the non friendly. You are in the mind set that ganks are coming with the territory and are fit for it, with an escape route, and its FAR easier to monitor local chat for gankers.
Sure youll have to deal with sparse markets not being in a high sec trade hub, and hauling through really dangerous space if you want to sell there....
If you want to mine in high sec, what I did, and it did work, was I went away from the main trade hub about 9 jumps away, and tried to find a 0.7 (i wanted to not be on the edge of low sec but far enough from 1.0 to avoid the crowds) system that was a dead end (less people passing by traveling) and loaded my ore into the station there, while mining I was able to recognize the few regulars who mined there as well. Then I just dealt with the 9 jump trip to the trade hub to dump.
Basically don't be afraid to check out a lot of high sec systems, even if they are in another races territory, find one with a lot of belts (harder for a ganker to do a quick check when there are 15 belts vs 4, sometimes gankers will just check on their way passing through), between the uber high traffic of 1.0 and the low sec border, preferably in a system that's a dead end, and set up shop there for a while.
That or get into a low/null sec corp/alliance and at least when you get ganked it wont be by the bottom feeders of eve. |

I think its more about corporations dedicated to killing high sec miners than one of those "I cant afford to lose it" complaints.
Hes getting picked on by high sec bottom feeders basically.
High sec is huge, there are many systems not on the beaten path, I suggest finding those systems (more than one) and setting up shop in a few of them (jump clone a few)
OR
Moving into a low/null sec corp and losing ships to people less bottom of the barrel. |

You can try the, mostly bad, advice they provide. Of course, they don't provide you with any actual support to allow you to defy CODE., being forum alts, but they make very brave and defiant posts here where they are only ganked by their own rediculousness. But here's the thing. If you choose to mine in a New Order system, those with sec status between .5 and 1.0 without a permit which is only one part of the full New Halaima Code of Conduct (www.minerbumping.com), you are subject to the following: 1) Bumpng 2) Ganking 3) Destruction of your corp or alliance 4) Confiscation of some or all of your ingame assets 5) Public humiliation at your impotent defiance on the www.minerbumping.com blog OR you can make the very wise economic decision to buy a mining permit for 10,000,000 ISK for one full year, good for all of highsec. You still have to follow the rest of the Code of course. Lots of miners and other highsec civilians have made the decision to forgo a permit. Almost 62,000 ships and pods, over 9 trillion ISK of illegal mining and hauling equipment has been the price. Over 1 trillion ISK in December 2014 alone. And yet you have posters here saying CODE. is a joke and that you can easily avoid them. I'm sure the 5122 pilots who died to CODE. in December would like the chance to rethink their decisions. Often the lack of a 10 million ISK permit cost them multiple billions in losses. Heres a way to know who to believe. Go to zkillboard and look at the killboards of the people here giving you advice to defy the New Order. Then look at the killboard for CODE. I'm assuming you are of average or even higher IQ. The answer should be obvious. Contact the Agent who told you that you needed a permit. Send him 10 million ISK and agree to support James 315 and the New Order of Highsec. Go to www.minerbumping.com and read The Code. Follow the VERY good advice you find there and get on with your life in highsec. Or don't buy a permit..... We'll be around directly.

This is the difference between good EVE players and Bad. Good players assume the worst and when that doesn't happen they are pleasantly surprised.
I've heard people say the same thing the SMA guy said (ie "high sec is hard because you can't just look at local and tell who is a threat) and I find that way of thinking insane. If you are being smart and careful and are not war-decced you don't even need to have local up. I don't at all when I incursion. ALL you have to do is be sure your ship isn't a juicy target and (or) has enoguh EHP to survive in the system you are in till CONCORD arrives. That's it.
7 years missioning, flying pirate faction battleships in those missions, flying 5 bil isk Vindicators in ISN and TVP (among others) incursion fleets and not a single successful gank (and only a handful of attempts against me). And yet every time i turn around some miner or other is whining, even after CCP handed them better tanked mining ships.
Not being able to make yourself almost 100% safe in high sec is like saying "I can't get laid in a brothel despite the fact that I'm carrying 1 million bucks in cash in a suit case" lol |

A wheelchair? Anyways, a permit is only 10M ISK and is good for a whole year. For that price, it would be silly not to by the permit - almost 10 trillion ISK has been destroyed by the CODE. alliance alone, much of which would have been spared if pilots just paid the pittance for a permit which even a highsec miner can earn in an hour or two. Even if you think it is unlikely we will find you, it just makes economic sense for that extra bit of safety while operating in our territory. La Rynx wrote:Guns? Firepower? Again AT 2014: One claim was that code was busy enforcing code... On the other hand loyalanon committed, that he had not 12 capable and willing pilots for the AT. Even the Joke of a catalyst run was them denied. CODE=300 alts but less than 100 players. Supporters do not count.  No, you do not have enough guns or firepower. But you DO have a lot of alts. No much use after the last multibox changes. What are you going on about? The CODE. alliance won the tournament before it even started, and then made history by going undefeated. Ask a hundred highsec miners if they remember who CCP declared the winner and I bet you will not get even one correct answer. In fact, more will probably answer Code than anything else. This is more proof that emergent content and our brand of elite PvP trumps inconsequential structured "PvP" in this beautiful sandbox that is Eve.

Im not sure that SMA has declared war on all high sec miners, and I know we don't avoid setting foot in null sec.
You might not like SMA because it looks cool or because you are in an enemy alliance, but comparing SMA to CODE is kind of silly.
Not saying people in SMA don't gank in high sec, but our sole purpose isn't to feed on new players mining in high sec.
For what its worth, we live in places where you can come kill us without concord to save us, we have assets you could, if you wanted to, destroy, and we do fight back. you can LOL all you want but this is about CODE and other bottom feeders who wont set foot in a dangerous system let along flap their assets out in null. |

Generalizing FTL.
As you might check on years and years of my posting and EvE blog, I am fairly "big" with Nitrogen Isotopes. Trading and (in the past) mining freighters a week of that.
Do you actually believe I could have kept my operation running for years without attracting attention, wardecs, CODE, Gankageddons etc. etc., in some of the most trafficked, rare ice systems in Caldari space?
You might wonder why I'd just not pay CODE, then.
First of all they are hardly the only "actors" on the scene, so what's the point getting a "permit" if the remaining 80% of gank corps keep doing their business?
Second, my home country had (and still has, in some areas) some omni-present, heavy IRL racketing and I hated that. Outside of EvE, racketing is not funny stuff, they shoot your relatives and burn your home / shot / factory if you don't toss loads of money to their sharks. Hence I made a point to never, ever submit to racketeers, even if this is "just" a game. I prefer paying 500M a week to an high sec corp - out of my OWN decision - than 10M a year to racketeers.

Yes, we can do that. Besides the constant confiscation of illegal mining and hauling equipment, I myself have confiscated three POSes belonging to non-compliant carebear alliances and the contents within. Sold off everything and used the proceeds to buy shares in the New Order. The ISK raised by selling shares is used to provide more ganking ships and equipment. Plus the story of the POS takedowns appeared in the Forum section of www.minerbumping.com (see "Cry Havoc and let slip the dogs of war" and "Inferno") so you don't have to talk to us to fulfill terrible consequence 5. Outside of my activities look at the killboard of PV Rock who specializes in curing highsec dwellers of AFK piloting and the recent minerbumping story of the confiscation of an entire rebel alliance (Ocean's Zero, part 1 though 23 or something).
Unlike James 315, the Savior of Highsec, who is really trying to help the highsec miners leave behind their sad, pointless existences, I have to admit to be somewhat ambiguous about the carebears initial decision. If they buy a permit I always honor it as long as the miner remains true to their word to obey the Code but if they choose not to I happily blast them into space dust and prompt them again to get right with the New Order. I am willing to do this as many times as it takes and don't consider it a bother at all. On occasion I've been acused of actually liking it....
Because this is how we see it. The New Order of Highsec exists to drive the bots and bot aspirants out of highsec. We do this by enforcing the Code. The permit allows us to easily identify those who support us (who have permits) and those who support the bots and bot aspirants (those without). When I encounter a miner without a permit I KNOW right there he is an opponent of the New Order. If I mercifully give him the opportunity to buy a permit and he declines he confirms his support of the bot aspirants. Either way, he must be opposed. See my earlier post for how we do it.
The actual question asked by the OP was "Am I really not safe mining anywhere?" The answer is, of course, yes, you are not safe mining anywhere. Or missioning. Or hauling. Or just sitting outside of station. That is a fundamental truism of this game. Buying a permit makes you a bit safer from the most organized, efficient and motivated group of highsec pvpers but nowhere near "safe". I am always amused by the people who show you how to select your ship, tank it properly, utilize the tools you are provided for situational awareness and even tell you who to play with that then tell you not to buy a permit and follow the Code. Its like sending a football player out in full pads except his helmet. As we always say, "Permit tank, best tank".
This is getting Jamesian in length so I will wrap things up by complimenting the same posters I have been critical of by saying they, at least, haven't called for the declaring of bumping or ganking to be some sort of exploit that needs to be "fixed" by CCP. Couple of them have come dangerously close to calling us "griefers" but most have at least given you advice that, combined with a permit, would help you survive somewhat better in this dangerous universe you've chosen to inhabit. Both sides of this argument actually want to help you. They want to help you mine better (blech). We want to get you into a ship where, when you pull the trigger, its another player who blows up, not just a rock.

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.
I suppose that's a matter of opinion...and you are entitled to yours...though I would suggest a single player game for those that want to "play by themselves". There's nothing wrong with mining alone..or doing some PvP solo..but in the long run, if you do not have any kind of social or meaningful interaction with other players, it is only going to hurt your Eve experience. After all, one can't do everything alone in Eve...but that's just my opinion.
If I had a nickel for every time someone said women don't play eve, I'd have a bag of nickels to whack the next person who said it..

Phew..this thread is kind of getting long, isn't it?
To accelerate things a little and put the whole topic to an end, I just transferred you 20 million ISK- 10 for a mining permit for OP, and another 10 to buy him 10 CODE shares, maybe the start of an ever growing portfolio.
I know you are not the guy who sells the shares, but you seem legit enough that I fully trust you to use the money for its intended purpose.
So, since the issue is now resolved, can we close this thread now?
I'd like to apologize for the poor quality of the post above and sincerely hope you didn't waste your time reading it.
Yes, I do feel bad about it.

I agree that outside of EVE protection rackets are heinous entities.
But you know what else is heinous IRL? Massacring conscripts without allowing them to surrender, which is exactly what mission runners do every day of the week. Those Serpentis battleships you blow up for a 400k bounty have 4-6 thousand people on them, a good number of them unwilling.
RL morality matters because out of game, the consequences of ruthlessly competitive behaviour are serious. In game, all that people lose are consumable space pixels.

New Order is an affable lot of role players. You could choose to resist their petty tyranny or enjoy their endless entertainment. There are several ways to do this.
1) Just sit in local and listen to their endless babble. Some really take to their roleplaying with conviction and it is great fun trying to pull them out of character.
2) Spend time bumping them. They absolutely hate being chased around and bumped.
3) The gank usually consists of one Catalyst. If you surmise this situation antagonize them While mining in an extremely tanky miner. Hilarity ensues when they get Concorded and you boat back for repairs.
Don't look for CCP for assistance. They changed their definition of griefing to allow this sort of behavior, it is classified as emergent, not griefing or bullying.

Miner bumping never was anywhere part of the EULA or TOS. Bumping as a whole wasn't.
History proves you wrong, you liar. The GMs had to actually have conferences about how to deal with this and declared that it's a-ok as long as requirements are met ... thus the mining-permit was born.
You can look that up in the very thread in C&P that is exactly about that!
You are a stinking liar and a bad one, too.

Outside of EvE, racketing is not funny stuff, they shoot your relatives and burn your home / shop / factory if you don't toss loads of money to their sharks. Hence I made a point to never, ever submit to racketeers, even if this is "just" a game. I prefer paying 500M a week to an high sec corp - out of my OWN decision - than 10M a year to racketeers.
I agree that outside of EVE protection rackets are heinous entities. But you know what else is heinous IRL? Massacring conscripts without allowing them to surrender, which is exactly what mission runners do every day of the week. Those Serpentis battleships you blow up for a 400k bounty have 4-6 thousand people on them, a good number of them unwilling. RL morality matters because out of game, the consequences of ruthlessly competitive behaviour are serious. In game, all that people lose are consumable space pixels.
There's a subtle difference between shooting NPCs and racketing (or something else) somebody. In the first case there's no consequence at all. In the second, you are affecting the somebody who sits behind his pixellated spaceship.
For some reason (subjective to me, but I DO follow my own subjectivity), I prefer (and did that) going say to Amamake and shoot evidently willing (to fight) people vs imposing something that could make people feel bad. Expecially the meta-game kind of bad.
I personally don't do but still am OK with shooting random guys like Solstice Project would do. In fact I even sent him money to do so, in the past... 
Instead, I am against "mind tricks", making people feel bad (I recall the case with those guys getting people on their private voice chat to psyche-assault them and make them miserable) and against un-educational things like promoting racketing. But that's just me and my evidently overbloated morals.

Dear Sir or Madam ... maybe even both.
First of all your lack of paragraphs hints at you raging, which makes you look like an immature child. You probably didn't know, but people who rage most often don't use paragraphs, because *they type out of rage* and completely forget everything else.
It's the feeling that makes one type and type and type. It's a way to cope with it. In the real world people would be screaming at someone and argueing back and forth, but as that's not possible on a forum it expresses itself this way.
Then there's "jerks" ... "justify their inner void" ... which confirms this pretty much.
And there's the last line, too ... "ive yet to be ganked by them but when they do i wont say anything".
You're a liar. Either you're a liar in regards to not having been ganked, or you're a liar about how you wouldn't say anything.
Anyhow ... if all of this was meaningless, you wouldn't have posted this.
So I guess we can add "cognitive dissonance" to the list as well.

The problem here is you're confusing bravery with stupidity.
Why in the world would you assume a single Catalyst or Thrasher is going to try to rough up a Procurer or a Skiff in the first place? In fact by sacrificing yield for tank you are only glorifying the New Order and furthering its mission for a smarter Highsec.
CODE wins if they gank your barge. CODE wins if they force you to fly Procurers and Skiffs.
If you haven't figured it out yet: the CODE always wins. The only way to be a winner yourself is to purchase a Mining Permit. |

The problem here is you're confusing bravery with stupidity. Why in the world would you assume a single Catalyst or Thrasher is going to try to rough up a Procurer or a Skiff in the first place? In fact by sacrificing yield for tank you are only glorifying the New Order and furthering its mission for a smarter Highsec. CODE wins if they gank your barge. CODE wins if they force you to fly Procurers and Skiffs. If you haven't figured it out yet: the CODE always wins. The only way to be a winner yourself is to purchase a Mining Permit.
LOL what??? *facepalms*
Procurer/Skiff have a pretty solid yield. It's on par with the Mac |

When all you have is an ibis here is what you do.
Goto you closest starter system and run the tutorials again. You get some free stuff.
Once that is done goto Arnon and run the SOE Arc... that will give you enough for a Venture..
Start mining and do what they suggested above.
Eventually you will save enough to get a new exhumer or barge.
Oh and buy a mining permit. |

Hi Sec gankers are pretty cowardly. If you even look like you are going to put up a fight, they will leave you alone. It's always funny if Highsec miners point at others and describe them as cowards. I am sure your choice of a Procurer instead of a Hulk has nothing to do with how scared you are of the gankers and we all know that Highsec miners don't care about yield.

Hulk's aren't an efficient way to get the job done if you're not in a group. But I guess a lot of people still get fooled by the old mining guides and that third laser.

The CODE. represent a telling moment of eve history but like a ganker alliances they will fail...and I will explain
the thing that will destroy them is...internal politics and isk paranoia... it is always the way
Ganker alliances draw fairly chilled independent players that shoot stuff and don't take this game too seriously....then the isk rolls in and their successes begin to pile up.
When this happens in real life,people change, and when their is serious isk/money to be made, A ecosystem of paranoia become will become apparent.
This draws a type of ganker that is not really that charismatic and basically want to make the system official so they can feed their god complex this irritates the original founder who has had to avoid these people most of his/her life and they will back away in some form ...this has already happened
The Godlings within the code have been pissing off their chilled F.Cs simply by making demands, and too a group of space anarchists ..this is a bad idea
the originaly chilled player base mentioned above has little to no tolerance for political player because simply they are a buzz kill and will simply disappear to the next nest option removing the funny chill atmosphere that code. needs to make them the more attractive gank option for roams
-it does not require a attack on their assets this would only serve to unify them and has done so -character assassination is unnecessary because most of them conceal their real toon in order to just troll others game play and their gank toon are beyond recovery. -marmite and other forces connected to the white knight initiative have been unsuccessful in their elimination of them for the first reason stated above
Code. could recover but it would require a substantial rebellion among its lower players to knock out the corrupt head
But unless this happens, code. will fall and another will take its place this is the way in R.L as it is the way of EVE

More flawed logic. You put on your closes with a fork? One does not need to "socialise" with you guys. Or with those scammers at the trade systems. If you want talk to someone, talk to friends. Oh! You do not have friends? Sure its the others fault, not yours!

Another Idea: Fly in a group. Have a friend with you that bumps away anything, that not belongs to your group. This will eliminate the "warpto" point and make ganking much harder. Of course the other ag points still apply.
Also you can anoy of your "competition" if you are mining good stuff.

Sorry, but no.
Basic tactic is using a scout ship, another mining alt. It might even mining right beside you, *that* will be the "warp to" point. codies have lots of alts, around 300 alts in corps but maybe around 100 ppl behind them. And *those* 300 are the offiical code members. For eg loyal-guys high kill rank is done always with friends and the help of at least one alt of him self MINUS the scout.
Best know loyal alts are "wolf soprano" and "sophia soprano".

No, if someone out there wants you bad enough they can find you. (See locator agents.) But there are steps you can take to mitigate the risk of getting ganked.
Bunch of ways to avoid this:
1) Put retards on a watch list that alert you when they logon and show up in local as bad guys.
2) Join a fleet of miners to get boosts. (I.E. don't solo mine if you don't have to.)
3) Find an industrial corporation that operates in low/null sec. Get better stuff out there anyways. Most of CODE/MARMITE dare not fly out there.
4) Get into a mining ship that has some tank to it so you can survive the gank attempt long enough for concord to show up. A skiff with descent shield and drone skills would be a plus. Tech 1 mining ships are basically eggshells with an engine and ore bay. Some people are crazy when it comes to ship fits too and go for mining yield when they are solo mining and should be going for survivability. Remember, you got to get the ore to the station to enjoy the benefits. Can't do that when your ship explodes.
5) If they do gank you, sell the kill right so everyone can have a chance of ganking them back.
6) Keep your ship aligned to a safe point in system. CONTROL+B is your friend for making safe points.
7) NEVER AFK/BOT MINE!!!!
That should help out. |

The only people that care about the hoarding of ISK and profit are the bot-aspirants in hi-sec, that fly anti-tanked ships in belts while watching YouTube.....Or eating.....Or going to the bathroom.....Or talking on the phone.....Or buttering the dog.
Those that follow and enforce the Code are rabidly against this type of gameplay. While there is some ISK to be made, the biggest profit by far is to show the carebear the error of his/her ways and gaining a friend in the process.

I remember the 1st time I got popped in my retriever, fun times, nothing tops the adrenaline of almost escaping your gankers only to have your tank die just before you can warp.

Unless it's been said already: CODE can do what they want to do because nobody stops them. There's little stopping you from gathering support and going against them either - you just need to make sure you know what you're doing because they love to dispose of wannabe "anti-CODE" organizations and post about it on their blog.

CODE. is a high-sec ganking alliance. Anything CODE says is Role Play, and shouldn't be taken seriously. So the answer is very simple, and you can absolutely continue solo play. You are not 'fully safe' anywhere, but you can take precautions to ensure that such a thing won't happen so often (if at all). So, add the alliance "CODE." as a contact, and set them to -10.0. When they appear in Local, they'll have a red mark on their portrait, and you'll be able to see it, so you'll know what they're going to do. Dock up preemptively. But the biggest thing you can do is don't be fully AFK. Check your D-Scan every now and then, and browse Local when you feel like it for players with Negative Security Status (positive Security Status players can still gank you, but it's less likely. You always lose Security Status with Highsec ganks). Getting a Procurer or a Skiff is also a good idea. Do you need a new Barge?

New Order is an affable lot of role players. You could choose to resist their petty tyranny or enjoy their endless entertainment. There are several ways to do this. 1) Just sit in local and listen to their endless babble. Some really take to their roleplaying with conviction and it is great fun trying to pull them out of character. 2) Spend time bumping them. They absolutely hate being chased around and bumped. 3) The gank usually consists of one Catalyst. If you surmise this situation antagonize them While mining in an extremely tanky miner. Hilarity ensues when they get Concorded and you boat back for repairs. Don't look for CCP for assistance. They changed their definition of griefing to allow this sort of behavior, it is classified as emergent, not griefing or bullying. No they didn't. You're a liar. Oh yes they did. I know this because I informed them at the time that their definition of griefing included the example "miner bumping". Within a week the definition was changed. That's a lie. Miner bumping never was anywhere part of the EULA or TOS. Bumping as a whole wasn't. History proves you wrong, you liar. The GMs had to actually have conferences about how to deal with this and declared that it's a-ok as long as requirements are met ... thus the mining-permit was born. You can look that up in the very thread in C&P that is exactly about that! You are a stinking liar and a bad one, too.
No, the reference was in Evelopedia under the definition of griefing. Sorry to burst your bubble but it is true, I sent in the support ticket basically informing them that the activity they were sanctioning was defined as griefing in their reference guide.
Now if you want you can shut your eyes and believe really hard that it isn't true. But it is.
This thread has so much content it may be 'Thread of the Year' and it is only January.

Babies very much *do* cry for no apparent reason (the word 'apparent' was implied by the very specific context of a famous quote). There is indeed usually a reason - often teething or mild hunger, sometimes something else that requires attention - neither of which are apparent. Hence no apparent reason.
Solecist is an intelligent person who I assume worked out the context but just wants to have a go at me for unrelated reasons.

The word "apparent" was not used and not implied at all.
The context were carebears who keep crying around. You made it pretty clear that you don't like them and you put them into the very same line as crying babies.

On the bright side, there are indeed many flies getting swatted in highsec.

I think it is neat you can have an alt or friend shoot you in a rookie ship spawn concord and mine in peace until concord leaves. Then when they do you just get in another free rookie ship and spawn concord again.
I think probably the coolest thing is, for a small price you can keep that alts sec status mostly neutral which should totally be worth having the constant security of CONCORD around. |

You are not safe doing ANYTHING in eve that is done while undocked.
Not only mining.. ANYTHING.
But no do not pay attention to that mining permit bullshit. JSut go far far away in a remote corner of non pupolated territory and you chances of being ganked drop tenfold.

Nope because they have other objective than to make yOUR life miserable. Their objective is a global scale enforcement of no mining in high sec. That is not griefing.
I do think their work is made too easy by destroyers... but besides that they are entitled to play like that.

no code are morons, you don't need a permit but they have players that don't mine paying them to kill carebears (people that don't take risk) and are trying to run everyone out of highsec/ quit the game/ go to null sec
I have a way to help you in mining as I do so if youll contact me ingame I can assist you there and tell you more.
for the people that say this is a military economy, missions/ratting/incursions is all isk printing, making isk out of nothing unless you salvage too, Mining is not making isk out of nothing but getting minerals to put on market while some mins are flooded, all mins go into building something to blown up soon or later and disappears from the game, the isk to buy those does not disappear except in taxes, the isk just changes hands

Every bit of ore you mine and put on the market devalues my ore - it's just simple supply and demand.
You can't let resource printing like mining go unchecked or it will ruin the economy. That's why there needs to be both some risk, and some guidelines (AKA the Code), to keep miners under control.

[/list] Thank you, and please keep the thread constructive, with minimal slapfighting and namecalling. (Ed: reviewed some of my wording) Now, please tell us of mighty ISD that how suicide ganking is different from griefing? Suicide gank is the definition of griefing. There is no other objective than to ruin players day. There are no objective for making profit, or gaining mining area to their own miners. Cowards like you are worse.

Actually you can make a ton of isk through suicide ganking. Most people will assume that a ganker is a part of CODE, but they forget that the ganking community is much larger than that.
For example, you will have players who scan tech 1 haulers with alts, and then blow up ones with valuable loot, by suicide ganking it with a cheap ship. Then an alt will loot the wreck.
You could easily make a billion isk in one hit if you get lucky, only losing some ship worth tens of millions.
So you are mistaken in your assumptions about suicide ganking. |

I'd like to apologize for the poor quality of the post above and sincerely hope you didn't waste your time reading it.
Yes, I do feel bad about it.

There are no objective for making profit, or gaining mining area to their own miners. The idea that PvP is griefing and the idea that the purpose of a game is to grind to gain virtual [something of value] seem to go hand in hand.
When you forget that it is possible to play games for fun, you forget that people might just be doing things for fun, and start ranting about objectives.
Also, no griefing in EVE.

Wrong. I can 100% guarantee you that a skiff fit with a DCU II, an AIF II and some shield rigs and mine in 0.6 or above you will not be targeted for a gank unless you either beg CODE repeatedly to try or fit extremely expensive storyline modules. It's just not worth it. Highsec as a whole is almost completely safe unless you are stupid or new and don't read forums, maps, local, or understand engagement mechanics. |

We're not the only people who gank. You're not 100% safe in a 1.0 using that fit, though it's *highly* unlikely you'll be ganked.
No, your rights end in optimal+2*falloff | No-one hates you, none of us care enough for that.

Yeah, cos CODE are the only threat in the universe.
BTW Marge, Im being sarcastic.
If you think 100% safety exists anywhere, you dont know what game you are playing.
Also... if thats all you put on your skiffs, you arent paranoid enough.

Oh look, you actually say you are wrong in your answer Its ok I forgive you
People don't actually do that...do they? My point is that you can be 100% safe in highsec if you aren't a complete dumb.

Be honest though you guys are responsible for most of the ganking and you or anybody else is not going to touch a skiff unless it has zero tank or they've got super shiny things fitted. A t2 fit skiff with a DCU in 0.6+ is not going to be touched unless the pilot is specially despised.

You fail english? That's unpossible. As is your assertion that you can ever be 100% safe. Especially in Hisec.

The magnitude of how wrong you are is just staggering.

As a miner myself who has had run ins with CODE, the best thing to do to deal with them is fly a proc/skiff....
the yield is slightly less and you have a smaller cargo hold but it will keep you alive....
i have been hit by 2 code guys once in my proc and managed to survive the encounter one even died before concord arrived.....
flying an expensive exhumer (hulk/mack) is basically asking to be shot.... there is so many times when i have been on a belt and some gankers arrive and drop 2-3 macks/hulks within a minute or 2.
If yuou fly one of the tanked ships (skiff/procurer) chances are they will leave you alone as its not worth their time...
But as said above add them to your contacts at -10 and they will stand out when they join the system.
Mining solo is better for isk etc but also gets boring i used to be a solo miner and then i joined a corp which is both more interesting as i now do other things rather than just mine and also gives you some friends. just be careful with the corp some are not in it to help other players but to help themselves.
but if you find a decent corp it would in my opinion be a good idea to join, an orca boost can hugely increase you mining efficiency and some corps even offer a freighter to haul your ores for you (can save alot of time)
Gankers just attack everything they might be able to kill if its worth enough isk.
For added security mine in a system/belt with a hulk.... they will be the first target... |
