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! |

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. |

Ok so this one best describes me (apart from me being the noobest of all noobs). Yes, I'm anti-code and I'm upset they force me into these things. I don't mind getting my ship destroyed or being ganked. What I am concerned about is: there's a group trying to take advantage of new players and forcing them into bs rules. If there's an anti-code corp who's against them, please I will join your cause and find ways to stop them. |

Yes, it's dangerous even in hisec.
You have all the other MMOs which will gladly hold your hand and walk you through saving the universe, walking you through the same experience of saving your home as everyone before and after you. These are what we call themeparks: WoW, SWTOR, LOTRO, STO, etc.
Then you have EVE (and a few smaller games designed on a similar principle), where it exposes you to some basics of how the game works and turns you lose in a big, scary place to explore and fight over. The devs give us tools and we figure out how to use them together.

I like this. Makes more sense. I apologize that you all guys feel I am whining about this kind of activity in game where players can dictate how other players should live their lives in-game.
To all others who thought I was part of the code, no I'm not and I am just like you who are against it. Someday, I will get to the bottom of this and confront the makers of this code myself (or at least I'll try doing so.)

If you had truly read up, as you claim, you would have found the crime and punishment forums, the various anti-ganker channels and groups that already exist, and put time and energy into working with them. |

Haven't gotten to them yet, just a few basics of the game. I won't expect to see my self to read up everything. I will get to the bottom of this and find a cause that is against this bs "code" and take them down. |

So they probably offered to refund the cost of his ganked ship, if he posts on the forums and stirs up a bit more traffic to their website. Because let's face it, they've been dead on these forums for a while.
And he's giving it his all.

Ok so i'm gonna delete that part where I "advertised' their website. Oh god. I can't believe how smart you are and how you figured this all out. You must be an A-class junkie like the other guy. |

No, it's just that we all know who CODE is, and:
1. You're explaining things that don't need an explanation. Like if I were to explain some game mechanic, and by "game" I mean EVE, this game, here's a link to the official website, and here's a link to the forums, that's the game I'm talking about.
2. You're doing what they usually do, which is post some bullshit complaint post from "a newbie" for the sole purpose of advertising their website.
3. You're posting about a group that's somewhat universally hated, or at least despised, which is why your thread has exploded, and will likely fill up with flames and trolling posts.
To give you the benefit of the doubt, this game is an unrestricted PVP game, and you don't have to consent to PVP to have it happen to you. It has been specifically designed like that by CCP. CODE and others are just looking for fights, and miners or haulers are easy kills. And they're wrapping the whole extortion racket in a thick layer of pseudo-religious "roleplay", because religious topics are even more likely to **** people off and cause all sorts of posting in rage all over the place.
Which ultimately makes them feel relevant, as if they're making a difference.
So now you know. |

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!
Thank you. |

There was no game rule which said you had to buy the permit. You just wanted to keep your next ship. There's no game rule which says they have to honor it, either. They just want to be able to sell permits as part of their in-game culture, and not honoring them doesn't really help them.
Other players can tell you how to play the game. You can accept their advice, or you can refuse it. They have presented you with a meaningful choice, and the nature of the game has allowed you the freedom to choose.

Player-driven government or whatever you call it is bad. If I don't abide to their rules and pay for their "permit", where should I go then?
I am a new player and I only know the basics of the game. I don't know what all these fancy talk about CODEs and stuffs are all about. I am out of Rookie Help chat so I've been playing more than a month, but I consider myself new.
And no, I am not just another whiner attention seeker type, but I'm sure you are an arrogant douche in real life buddy.
It is not PvP oriented, it is PvP centric. There is no safe place in EVE. You can play solo just fine in all areas of space. But you need to know what you do. If you're older than a month when your first ganking experience hit, you were lucky anyway.
This is also a mmoRpg and at least part of what code does is role play. Don't take them too serious. But learn to keep your profile in a way that they don't see a reason to actively hunt you.
Not all their rules are just rules. At least some are actually born out of solid advice. There are some basic general "rules of EVE" like "Don't fly what you cannot afford to lose". Obviously it's up to you to disregard them. But don't come here and complain about whatever happened to you afterwards. People will troll you.
If you are looking for a more civilized forum, there's the new citizens questions and answers. The welcome new players get is usually more friendly than here in general discussion.
Oh, and last but not least: Notwithstanding the motives of code members, the advice to mine in a procurer or skiff instead of a retriever was literally rock solid and completely altruistic.
