Actually I already mine with my alt in a Procurer, since it is a stupidly overpowered ship and is a lot of fun. I am never AFK because there is actually a lot to do while mining. If you ever noticed in a ice belt there are other people competing with you for the ice. So there is plenty of sneaking up on them to do, to act as warpin for myself and my alt to kill their barge or to simply bump them out of the belt.
It usually only takes a few minutes to half an hour and I have the whole ice anom for myself. I think that is how it should be done and I expect a compliant miner to do the same. This is what I would call "how to mine the right way".
Obviously I am not selfish and everyone has the chance to purchase access to the anom and any other anom in New Order territory for only 10mil ISK per year (subject to forfeiture if Code violation is detected).

Jonah Gravenstein wrote:It's known as implied consent. As long as there are undesirable outcomes which are possible but not so high in likelyhood to be considered certainties (which is certainly the case when in highsec and not doing something stupid or anywhere else when sufficiently aware) I'm having a hard time seeing even implied consent.
But that's not what he's arguing anyways. He's arguing explicit given consent. What I'm still trying to figure out is why he thinks he needs it, and why you think an act that doesn't solicit any specific type of conflict somehow consents to all of them (yes, you're here for some kinds of PvP, the ones you're equipped for and therefore explicitly consenting to that, but that carries no idea of implied consent to interference and as said before, you don't need it).
Also this isn't a PvP game in the traditional sense. Those tend to be balanced around a specific, single type of competition. Eve isn't. You're expected to not consent to certain types of interactions people may try to bring your way. Eve tends more towards a world where anything can be PvP in the course of normal use because of the inability to not interact with the world at large. |

Also, if you go to a gate that goes to null then it's interdiction spheres with neut ships waiting.......blimey.
I'm all for leaving high sec sometimes or whatever....but its a ****-fest as soon as you do so, and they are all vets all-the-way almost everytime in a tier 2 or 3 ship.
Man! I know you folks will say just deal with it but it's not cool just being a kill mail for some overly skilled douche that waits 24/7 on the other side of the high sec gate.
In time.....I will be more skilled and the time of vegence will come and be mine...but not just yet, haha.
These are only problems because you are trying to do it alone. A gatecamp is designed to overwhelm any solo opponent. You can get past them pretty reliably in an instawarp frigate and buy a barge at your destination. Don't fall into the trap of thinking you need to train for years before you can be effective in combat. The best way to be effective in combat is to fly with friends. |

I mined a lot in HiSec, but usually only when in the mood and needing relatively risk free capital. Once I learned how to run combat sites, mining was less important in HiSec because I could make a crap-ton more ISK running sites than I could mining the usual stuff. The only exception was Glaze, if I could get that it was decent income for less effort. I would tend to still run combat sites to sharpen my combat skills to at least 'dull' but mining had it's allure when I was tired.
The issue I see here is that AFK mining is a way to earn ISK while doing something else. The something else in factor with the ISK gain is the balance that determines how important it would be to the player. For those players where AFK mining is their primary income stream and they are doing 'something else' just to burn off the boredom of it, then it's either going to have a large impact on them, or none at all *IF* CCP also introduces more fun and challenges to mining. If CCP doesn't do that, then it's going to be a huge impact and really tick off this kind of player, which makes no sense.
If they are going to make it free to play to draw in more players, then why make a good chunk of the player base mad at you and possibly lose them? I don't get this logical conundrum.
As for CODE, they needed a win after their bump mechanics took a beating, so call it break even. I have no idea how many of them actually drink the kool-aid enough to believe the stuff I see their adherents post, but none of it matters. Their play style is what it is and we all have to adjust to each other. If you know what you are doing, they are a paper tiger.
CCP is CLEARLY targeting an increase of the player base and F2P is going to make it a bunch of people that really don't know what they are doing. So CCP is either going to have to continue to make the game simpler and more EVE PvE oriented *OR* just hope that sheer numbers of people trying to play the game will suck in that marginal % of the populace that would be interested in EVE as is. I don't know which is their target there, maybe a function of both.
So, we can keep fighting these titanic announcements of change from CCP, accept and work with them, or leave the game. That's really the only choices you have. Pick what works best for you.

As someone told: One of my Problems as a Miner is that i don-¦t want to be a squishy target. Right now i mine in Low-Sec, because i feel comfortable, but to some Degree i am on my Way to other Targets to Archive ( Command here i come).
But to be honest: have u ever tried to mine your Profit for Buying an Orca ? Buying by Contract means usually a Price of 700kk. Right now i farm with Tier2 modulated Strip-Miner for Pyroxes (someone told me to do so) and every run is worth 2kk. have fun to collect the ISK for ORCA. And with some bad Luck there is someone who intend that you are some Kind of AFK-Miner and Snipes you away. Whups, here is the loss of Several Millions of ISK. And i think u will get ISK way more faster with KIlling or Exploring.
And even if someones not responding to a Ganker, maybe he is chatting with the corps at the time ? Or other things. Minng can be really boring. But hey, that-¦s my way of this game. |

Mining, in low-sec......

excuse me question but are you a masohist?
[honestly mining in low security in current version of a game is outright bad idea, because a) there is nothing in low sec that would not be in null anyway b) you have no way to secure even remotely efficiently your mining operations in low - in high sec there is concord scaring of at least some onf potentiall assaulters, and in biggest chunk of null there is the NBSI directive meaning that when sitting in proper system, odds for you being attacked are quite low... not to mention that if you are in procurer/skiff you can actually attack that attacker first and he won't be likely to just hotdrop caps on you...] |

The issue with mining in elite is that it's just more clicks but the same level of decision making. Well, that and more information obfuscation (Prospector limpets to see what's in every rock? No thanks.).
And the end result, despite lack of afk-ability, is a worse experience in terms of enjoyable gameplay.
And I really never thought a game could make me appreciate eve mining, but there it is.

When I was mining I enjoyed having Code around because it made the game more interesting. And I give them credit for getting players out of Macks which was by far the AFK'r ship of choice.
That said, with today's current player count I don't think CCP should do anything that gives a segment of Eve reason to quit and I think swinging the balance in favor of gankers would do that.
Instead, I think CCP should create new gameplay options. Keep the current mining mechanism, but create a higher payout mechanism for those players willing to pay more attention and assume more risk. For example, I think CCP should have kept the current Orca mining boost mechanism in place, but pay out less than the new Orca mining boost mechanism.

Won't be too bad I reckon. Orcas can pre-align and are tech I so the insurance payout isn't bad either.
Did you know my Orca has more tank than a freighter? #TrueStoryBro. It'll cost a pretty penny to gank and the lootdrop will be a can of ore and some T2 mods.
I'm thinking an Orca in highsec will still be pretty much in the clear; you can burstboost just before you cart everything off to station, warp back and get boosts back up in a minute or so. It'll work. |

Hmmm. First off I think code pilots are some of the worst pvp pilots in eve. They are very proud of their mass amounts of kills but they are because they only attack the weakest of the weak. They are like kids that play a game on God mode and then brag about beating said game. On the other side you got pilots that make it the end all be all as in how much isk they are bringing in. Isk isn't a high score, it's a means to an end. Now if you want to stop code and others set up patrols, hunt them. What gives them power is the nothingness miners do towards getting rid of threats. I'm betting they will leave systems alone that are known to shoot all code on sight. Sadly I don't think many got it in them as mining for max profit is more important than making their areas of operation safer. |

That said, with today's current player count I don't think CCP should do anything that gives a segment of Eve reason to quit and I think swinging the balance in favor of gankers would do that.
Instead, I think CCP should create new gameplay options. Keep the current mining mechanism, but create a higher payout mechanism for those players willing to pay more attention and assume more risk. For example, I think CCP should have kept the current Orca mining boost mechanism in place, but pay out less than the new Orca mining boost mechanism. This isn't how things work.
CCP isn't giving payouts to anyone, it's market driven.
Anything CCP does that makes mining seemingly more lucrative ... ... aka higher yield per minute ... ... inevitably leads to higher prices of everything mineral-built.
In the end it balances itself out after prices adapted ... ... and the value of your isk stays exactky the same, despite being a higher number.
And higher risk... well ... if people taught miners how to play properly ... ... then there would be no risk at all. And no, tank is the worst of all options.
