I mine in 1.0 as a more secure way of growing with my n00b corpmates. The place is practically deserted and besides us I rarely see any other player mining those belts. With repetition and boredoom watching your drones and lasers hit the asteroids you start noticing nearby traffic out of its uniqueness. Every time I log in there is this 4 month old NPC Covetor mining barge online. Checking his history one can see a periodic change from one corp to another only to return to the first one two weeks later, this several times. We meet often on those belts but I have never managed to have a chat with him since he always rejects. Well..he could just be busy or simply not interested in chatting away the hours...but what makes me suspicious is his never changing routine. He always warps in to the ends of the belts , stays there for a while not doing anything and then moves in mining mostly simple scordite although condensed and massive boulders are in his path. He mines, stops...takes a while then goes for the next. This goes on till (I asume) his hold is full and he warps back to base to come back but not at the same spot (where not few times many rocks are still floating) but on the other belt¦s extreme or another belt alltogether.
I could swear he is using a marco...should I petition him? Does this work?

Could be a macro or could be someone who doesn't speak good English. Petition him and let CCP sort it out.

Petition him under "Exploit" and the GM team will investigate it.
Its not uncommon for them to do the investigation and then wait to do a massive ban on several dozen to a hundred macro'ers and ISK sellers so they can monitor the effect, so don't get upset if you still see him around for a while.
People used to say that CCP ignored macro'ers, but you see only a fraction of them around anymore so obviously something happened. So don't despair - they'll get their due.

I sent the petition and after a while it says "closed". Does this mean it was just read or that it has been acted upon (or not). Do GMs usually inform you of the results of a petition?

Macro's don't seem to take a high priority with CCP as far as petitions go. He may dissapear or he may stay for as long as he feels like it. In the system I live in now, there are about 5 farmers (vgvgh, jytjyt...) atm, all with a 2005 start date and noob corps. I have petitioned them but they go right on stealing ore. They do jet can mine though so it is profit for anyone *cough* that may steal the ore from them. They also spoil ratting as they sit with drones out and kill any rats that spawn in the belt. Let them mine and I'll haul for them. They can petition me if it bothers them.
