Am I the only one that finds it ironic that people criticize miners for doing something that makes little isk by engaging in an activity, IE ganking miners, that makes even less ISK per hour than the miners do? |

I have never mined a single m3 of ore. Why would I when I can make billions by logging in for minutes a day? Same goes for ganking, what a total waste of time unless you have a tiny little stump for manhood between your legs. I am terribly amused how anyone who dares to point out the ******** logic employed in this thread has to be a miner. |

Oh I see, now we have arrived at "it is just a game" since someone pointed out the absurd logic. |

Maybe some people take offense at miners for doing lowly work but it doesn't mean they shouldn't be treated as target practice just because that also doesn't make money (although it does). At any rate, mining is so disengaged an activity that a macro can do it better than a human being. Ganking at least means you are enjoying yourself.
If you enjoy mining then more power to you.
This is all well and good except I didn't make the case that ganking is profitable or a wise use of time, the simpletons in this thread were the ones making a pathetic attempt at that. Complain to them if you don't like my post.
As for mining, it is a complete waste of my talent, I made more in the last two days in Jita than a miner can make in a month. Although being a right and proper stock jobber, I'd be happy to buy their ore and ship it wherever my clients like for a handsome profit. |

Yeah, so what? Making ISK via trade is dead easy. Personally, I think there needs to be a big increase in the transaction Tax - from 0.5% up to at least 10-15%. The question is, when you are sitting on hundreds of billions - what do you do with it, other than play for free via PLEX? Yeah, I could personally gank at a loss without any trouble. I even use that ISK to pay other TEARS members a 75M bounty - every time they kill a Mackinaw that hasn't paid tribute.
The point I was trying to make is you DONT have to gank at a loss. You can earn ISK doing it, and that makes the game of killing Exhumers affordable to FAR more players. And I want to see the maximum amount of participation from others as well....
I also noticed a tweet from CCP: apparently TEARS Alliance has killed the most hi-sec Exhumers in January with 169 down, with Smodab's crew posting in at 130 something. We hope to improve on that this month.
And we all know that 75M is veritable king's ransom! We have already drenched the mining profession with tears in this thread, now we are going to cry because station traders make money too. Never mind basic economics which says additional taxes will simply be added to the prices end users pay. Where does it all end? I'm calling CCP right now, I am ordering their programmers and engineers to work overtime this weekend to make sure you have a manhood of 15" added to your avatar, you obviously need it in order to feel better about yourself.

So, I am posting about how to gank miners, in a thread about how to gank miners. You are posting off-topic about how space-rich you are, for what reason, I fail to grasp. And I'm the one waving the e-peen? Tard.
I'm guessing that you fail to grasp quite a bit, sir. If you would have actually read the posts you would have seen that one of your little friends insisted that I must be a miner because I had the audacity to point out the flawed logic in this thread. Posts like that are painful to some on this board, just judging by the responses. That brought about my comment, which was why would I mine when I am already filthy space rich? Why would I soil myself in the fields with the peasantry griefer trash?

I apologize that you feel intimidated by someone who posts above the third grade level. With that in mind, I have a four year old here, I asked him to tell me what I should call you in response to your assertion that I am a "close minded moron".
He said you are a "stinky pants doo doo head". I hope that is on your level and we can have further dialogue.
