So why don't we permit mining boost ships to have an increase in duration? Surely that is a compromise that does not invalidate your guys' methodology. Just musing.
Why don't we just go ahead and not change anything merely to avoid the utterly minuscule waste of letting the booster free-cycle?

Why don't we just go ahead and not change anything merely to avoid the utterly minuscule waste of letting the booster free-cycle? Why don't we just change everything so the game is so much easier, then people celebrate. Then one person puts up a suggestion and some people rage against 'making eve easier.' You know the past 2 years have been 100% about 'making eve easier' right?
About the only thing this would make "easier" is parking an AFK booster ship in a belt for even longer than the... what, 5 hours? They get right now.
Material for one batch of Laser Field Enhancement charges currently cost 235,795.5 isk in Amarr, with a 6509 isk installation fee in that station.
That's less than 500 isk per shot, at current prices. Running a booster 24/7 for an entire year would cost 254,710,490 isk.
There is absolutely no need to "special case" around something this inconsequential. It's hard to imagine a more absolute waste of dev time.
