Just wondering since:
- Most of the bots are gone
- Drone Mins are apparently going
- I haven't seen a hulk mining in months
- Mining is inherently dull and there's many many many easier ways to make considerably more money.
Someone needs to pick up a mining laser cus I'm sure as hell not doing it.

Don't worry, my alts will take care of it... :p
But, you know... my alts was in few corps that were in all indy alliances... and we mined A LOT.
And then suicide ganks started... ok... but then war decs started... and... all our mining stop and alliance is dead now.
So... thats a balance... you kill miners, or don't give them opportunity to mine and price will go up... and vice versa.
That way its all balanced. |

With mineral prices on the up I recently busted out my mining barge. I'm sure there are others who will do the same.

MehGǪ the mineral basket is still under-priced by about 1k ISK. Trit needs to rise by another 0.26 ISK or so before the apocalypse comes.

The market will take care of it, as prices go up more people will start mining and then prices will start stabilizing again. Why do people always get over dramatic with this stuff? |

Yes, because when mineral prices skyrocket because of mineral shortages, mining will still be the same profit, amrite? 
I think you'll need to take an Economics 101. Specifically about supply and demand. :) |

Trit and pye should normalize to price range between 4.5-5.5 isk/unit... mex has already reached the peak and other minerals are soon to follow... isogen and bc minerals are still somewhat undervalued.

Most experienced miners tell me that even when mining was good it could only make them about 40 Mill an hour. 40 Mill an hour is nothing, I **** 40 mill an hour.
So, no you're not right. There are far better and easier ways to earn money. I guess you need to take basic maths.

So does this mean you're not going to be out there mining? I can hardly see why squatting all day long would be so much better.

40 mil ISK an hour, for mining, an activity that scales far better than missions. Incursions will be nerfed, missions are a lot more effort than mining, and you cannot run 5, 10 or 20 accounts doing missions, while 10 accounts mining is easily achievable.
Bubble the gates and have scouts. If any hostiles show up, fleet warp your hulks to a POS. |

Trouble shows up quite a lot more frequently these days though. Especially when someone gets wind that there's a guy duel-boxing ten accounts in one system. I'm saying you're wrong, just saying it's not that simple.
Anyway, I'm only speculating. Assuming the drone mins nerf is true, mins on the whole will be less available then at any time in recently history. A lot of mineral faucets have been turned off since mining was last profitable, and ganking miners has become a hell of a lot more popular.
If nothing else, we're in for interesting times.

Someone needs to pick up a mining laser cus I'm sure as hell not doing it, ans I have ships ans Mods to build.
Mining is inherently relaxing and there are many more click-intensive ways to make a little bit more money for the effort.
Reprocessing is fine. In fact, I'd say reprocessing needs a good whack with the nerf bat (why do navies have better quality refineries than mining corporations?).
Mining's fine. As mineral prices go up, more miners will get their fleets out of mothballs to make some easy ISK.

GǪalso, the skill requirements for the Covetor are coming down, so that's a neat boost to the low-key/semi-newbie miner that will help smooth things out.

If CCP doesn't touch the market it will take care of itself. Min and ship prices will indeed rise a bit but more people will try to take advantage of that and start mining again, then it will balance out. |

May I put forward this wonderful idea
1. Remove hulks and reprocessing
2. Remove insurance and wrecks drop nothing
3. Seed Minerals from NPC sources at insane daily amounts...trit 100 isk, pyre 150 isk, zyndrine 25,000 isk, morphite 250,000 plus the rest of the minerals
4. ?!?!?!
5. HIGH RISK! Now you are going to actually lose something and lose it hard. Rifters are the new hurricane price, enjoy being risk adverse and grinding isk to replace it  |

I know where im getting my minerals from.
A while ago i volunteered to work for the mentaly handicapped association and i taught a bunch of ******** kids to mine all day long in EVE.
I then buy them from them at about half the cost and inform their carers that they are have made great strides in becoming socially integrated people.
So im doing my bit for the community and they are helping me with my extensive building programme
Win win

Once alloys are rmoved... unless there is a substantial plan to supplement the decrease of minerals hitting the market ... Eve is gonna break.. Yes , more people will start mining ... but that still will not be enough to recover from the sudden drop in mineral supply.... There are no concrete numbers but I speculate atleast 60% of the low end minerals come from alloys ...(and thats being conservative) ... And I reach this number based off the time it takes for miners to bring in ore to refine versus how fast you cna acquire alloys.... this will have no affect on high - ends since they are not driven by alloys... the drop in high ends is almost completely due to the dominion addition of the upgradeable hidden belts in 0.0
I am telling everyone i know , if they have trit , horde it , once CCP removes alloys trit will easily hit 7 isk/unit ... but deep down , I can see it hitting double digits.... |

I'm guessing that you taught them how to post in EVE GD too, because that would sure explain a lot of the threads and posters we see around here. .
The accumulated filth of all their sex and murder will foam up about their waists and all the ho's and politicians will look up and shout 'Save us!' and I'll look down, and whisper 'no.' |

So, your complaining that botting is going, minerals wont all come from one source (drone regions) and that mining will once again be a proffesion worthy of players time?
Thats sort of odd.
