They've been know to carry off small to medium sized dogs.  Do you live in Maine? Minnesota? Or Louisiana? Too bad your proposal did not call for using mosquitoes in that way... would finally be a good use for them besides yellow fever, malaria, and other lovely tropical diseases.
Aww man, what do you have against dogs?

I met the OP and his corp friends recently in game and they assured my that bumps are not bothering them at all or have any impact on their mining business.
They had however some trouble with fitting ships in general.

Feel free to calculate it by yourself how much a Machariel + MWD (mass increase) at 2000 m/s would move a Freighter. You can also do the math for a Stabber + MWD at 3000 m/s against your Orca and show us how wrong EVE is.
And now tell us how you tried to bump my stabber with your frigate and how it did not work. Also tell us how it did not work for your friend as well. The fittings for the frigs are on my killboard for reference.

Also why cry in a new thread when there is already another one about the same topic?
Big surprise. High-sec mining, hauling, and industrial ganking filth don't want the bumping mechanics to be changed.

Oh yeah, don't forget us hauler and mining filth that don't want it change either. You speak for yourself, not for all of us.

Yep, I champion their gameplay because their failure( the gankers and gankees) makes me feel better about my success. What have you lost that makes you so bitter? How did you lose it? Why shouldn't I support their efforts to part a fool from his/her isk? I adapt, avoid and prosper. I use the risk to increase my enjoyment, and i fully believe that candy taken from diaper wearing adults is fair game.
Passive schadenfreude best schadenfreude.

I've never actually been ganked. Though I don't think much of the people who do it, particularly as a career.
In any event, I for one have also long found the bumping mechanic to be one of the most stupid things about EVE.
Particularly when a small ship can bump a much larger one.
Still you'd think an advanced space ship would be able to counterbalance any forces being applied to it against its desired heading, orientation, or direction of travel.

If both ships in a bump have shields at zero, it should be crunch time, because that would be consistent with lore about how shields work (and how they wouldn't when they've failed).
Outside of that, the mechanic is just fine.
A signature :o

Well, what is stupid is that you don't understand bumping. A small ship will have a hard time bumping a much larger ship without at least a MWD....which also increases the mass of the ship doing the bumping (scroll down to the part that says mass addition; so for something like a taranis an increase of 500,000 kg would be a one third increase in ship mass) and even then it wont be terribly effective against a ship like a freighter.
Maybe you should read a bit more on how the game mechanics work.
As for bumping, it is totally fine, IMO. You don't take damage when you slam into other objects in game. And if you find yourself getting bumped in preparation of a gank, you screwed up several times over....you deserve what is coming, IMO. HTFU and fly smarter.
