Hi,
I'm new to the game, and today was not a good day for me.
Today, I got ganked by two players in high sec (0.6 Hagaken). One of their colleagues sent me a mail saying I was mining without a permit and was AFK. Apparently, these things are a criminal offense towards them.
So I had a conversation with this guy who sent me the mail who was terribly serious about abiding and agreeing to their rules. Said I needed to pay them 10m for a permit. This guy then decided I wasn't fit to get one due to my attitude towards him, and quit our private convo. I was forced to message him back since I wanted to keep mining without interruptions. He then wanted me to pay 30m since I was on their red list or something.
So I sent the guy 30m. He gave me a permit and said I need to display it in my bio. Then he said the corp I was in at that time did not have a good standing with their alliance or something, so I was forced to leave the corp as well. Lastly, they wouldn't allow me to fly a Retriever and forced me to comply with their rules to fly a Procurer or Skiff.
This is ridiculous. Can anyone help me get protection from these guys? It looks like they are led by a so-called saviour of hisec James 315. This is their website: http://www.minerbumping.com/p/the-code.html.
What is wrong with me trying to play the game solo and do whatever I want? I need help or advice.
Thanks

EVE is a MMO PvP oriented game were you are not safe anywhere. PERIOD.
If you are truly a new player, you need to learn that really quickly. But I'm guessing that the amount of time you spend in (eve on your first day) means that you are in fact not a new player and just another whiner attention seeker type...

No, we can just tell you how not to get ganked:
Ventures are fast. Run an afterburner, and they won't be able to catch it with the catalyst fits they like to use.
Hulks and retrievers are squishy. If you aren't paying careful attention, they're easy to kill.
Procurers with damage controls and a lot of shield hardeners are stupid expensive to gank.
EVE actually is a dangerous place. It's boring without people trying to kill you and take your stuff.

"code" by all means tries to racketeer players by extorting money in exchange of service that CONCORD does for free. Best part, is when things like Jitaburn happens they are nowehre to be seen. At least you know their legal name and I just can't wait when imperial alliances and corporations buckle up and wardec "code" out of existence.
Also, the idea is not that brilliant, specially in long term. Forcing weak players to pay will make them leave this game and not spend on it or/and will make them join corps that will anihilate "code" in near future.
There is nothing worthy in this world even if others think it is worth something...

Best chance, you will end up not mining and instead leaving game or fighting them.

That is your assumption...which was wrong. In any game, it is the players responsibility to educate themselves as to how the mechanics work.

In a MMO, really, what did you expect? As for where you should go, how about you ask "How do I survive" or "How do I mine safely?". Running away is not the first thing you should be thinking of.

You have been extorted for isk by a group of role players. Welcome to eve. It is part of the game. I wish you had not paid but do be it.
Your next course of action Will help determine your future in EVE. Your choices are:
Complain on the forums and quit, this game may not be right for you.
Go the solo route... Open your in game map, set the statistic to average pilots in space and pick a spot in hi sec that is not as popular. Less chance to run into CODE and the like. The drawback, you will need to haul stuff to and from a trade hub, so research and prepare.
Join Eve University, take some.courses and educate yourself better.
Join a decent new player friendly Corp that may be able to better educate you or help you. Try Brave Newbies or Pandemic Horde. DO NOT FALL FOR RECRUITMENT SCAMS!!! Research those in eve and be a little cautious. If someone asks you for 500 mil isk to join it is probably a scam. Still, safety in numbers helps and you can find those that will help educate you.
I hope this helps! |

As for where you should go, how about you ask "How do I survive" or "How do I mine safely?". Running away is not the first thing you should be thinking of. Running away?

Who said new players can't run into lowsec? As soon as I heard about it, I went into one and got killed.

Chill bro. I know how you want to punch me right now, but you're just a kid so I don't mind you at all. I did "read-up" and now I'm back here to find a way how to stop this bs childish "code" thing from ruining EVE. If you are oppressed by this code, don't be shy and go against them. You have the right to be free. |

I'm not sure if I'd be impressed that people don't find me as a new player. I would take that as a compliment. In all honesty, I started the game more than a month ago. I know what's inside my killboard, and I don't understand how you interpret my deaths to being not a new player. |
