I don't know how you got the impression that highsec miners are peaceful. They are some of the most vile, petty, hate filled people in all of EVE. If you so much as look at their barge for too long you can expect to see local filled with paragraphs of text explaining how the reason you bumped their barge slightly is because you were sexually molested as a child and that it would benefit mankind if you and all of your family died in a fire because you did something they didn't like in a spaceship game.

Seriously, they aren't cuddly, fluffy bears, they are a bunch of rabid lunatics.

Hate? Disgust? Seriously? You actually have psychotic feelings for them? You think everyone should hate and despise them?

The OP sounds really disturbed :)

I read the first two pages then lost interest - just one question however did the OP mention where the ore for the ships was gonna come from without miners ?

Whoa! Look at all the tears. Y'know OP inspires me to go out and do exactly this... hmm I wonder what the best way to kill a large gaggle of Mackinaws is.

Never ganked a miner in hi-sec before, but after reading the thread- I'm all in.
Question, does anyone have an Amarr or a Caldari gank fit they could share? Also some basic tips on on hi sec miner ganking would be appreciated.

Oh man why write such a long winded explanation when we know WHY you do it.... you like it, it's that simple, it makes you feel good to destroy a ship that can't fight back and it's human to attack and prey upon the weak. Bullies have the same mentality, they enjoy to bully those who they perceive to be weak because it's easy. Don't tell me you are doing eve online favors, we know it's a load of crap, you do it because you are an antisocial little sadist who gets the greatest enjoyment out of destroying and kicking other peoples sand castles. You probably enjoy making your little sister cry too.... you are weak and pathetic and you hide behind a greater cause but in reality you are nothing more then a virtual bully.

tons of stuff

Well put

You guys realise that you don't decide someone else's motivations right?

The real world isn't like EVE - it won't twist itself to match your perceptions of it.

While true, it's no more presumptuous than the op.

OP uses deductions, not presumptions.

Page 19 ...

Is the "We are killing bots" vs "Goons are scum," thing ended yet?

So you are saying that the op has fully observed and defined the set of motivations and characteristics that universally apply to all highsec miners? A talented man indeed. I suppose during my time mining I was doing it wrong. Though, I'm not aware that my activities, nor the uses of the isk that I made doing it were observed by him.

OP uses deductions, not presumptions.

I only read as far as when OP said something like, "Most miners are bots who should be killed. Human miners mine right beside them. I will not tolerate bots or people who harbor them." So human miners are harboring bot miners? What kind of deduction is that? A fallacious, false, convenient-for-one's-argument presumptious one-- that's what kind. Five lines into the argument, and we already had a non sequitur.

Of course the highsec miners harbor the bots. They camouflage them. They act as human shields. If it weren't for human players mining in highsec, the remainder would be known botters, and would be instantly banned.
