i have seen groups of 6 people mining with 4 hulks 1 itty 5 and an orca,
I moved to the next belt and with in 5 min. they are mining the belt im in with no regard for the roids im mining they just come in on top of me and start ming after 30 min. the roids are gone and they they move on to the next belt. and this is in .9 space. it only affects new and solo players so most people will careless about it. It's things like this that will bring down EVE
nuff said
Don't get ahead of yourself. EVE used to have 0 (none, nada) belts in large swaths of high-sec due to the huge armies of mining apocs that just swam through regions eating rocks whole. CCP saw the problem, and quite carefully fixed it. The little orca imbalance will get addressed too.

Stop whining...think you have problems?
I mine. I'm in 0.0. The system is -0.75 true sec. There's Arkonor, Crokite, Mercoxit. I have a POS. I have a Rorqual. I have the skills.. Sounds good eh?
I have a red Arazu cloaked somewhere... 
Stop whining...some of us have bigger problems..
heh been there done that.... in times like that I wished the only problem I had was to get my lazy ass to move 2 or 3 jumps over for more quiet mining.
Some days you're the bug, some days you're the windshield. |

Ayyee...when I was a ratting carebear I loved my cloak. Now I despise them with a vengeance and hope they do away with the bastardly things and soon..
So to the OP, be grateful that a few jumps out with a bit of planning will allow you the same mining opportunities...

Maybe in 6 months when every alt and his alt has one then it the demand might go down some, but don't count on it.
Problem detected. Less alts for the sake of the game.

Well the Orca has changed the way miners work 3 hulks and a fully riged Orca can fully clear a belt in a very short time with or with out a station in system. I have an Orca and think its a totaly brill ship, but I can't help thinking CCP have not fully thought this through (nothing unusual there then) Well players from casual to no life eve junkies will soon have nothing to do as ship will be so expensive and ore in short supply because belts have not been given the time to respawn. I saw 3 hulks and an orca mining a very thin belt when I asked what was the point I got the reply " this is as good as it gets now" A skilled miner able to strip belts in his stride has it would seem wasted his time becomming such a good mine to have it all taken away again. We lost all the skilling time when the missile nerf arrived have we been kicked in the nads again. More proper balance is called for in stead of rushed desisions please put a little more thought into some thing before implementing it.
Yes I am soon to quit eve and no you can't have my stuff I am going to give it to noobs. 3 accounts = 9 chars bite the dust its been fun alot of the time. Jan 1st I log off for the last time.
Since I'm a noob, can I have your stuff?
btw: this was an orca thread and you actually managed to try and twist it into a missile nerf whine.
I'm a noob too and I asked first! (I was just outside your future light 4-cone when I did)

I saw this 7 jumps from my home system ,,,I have been looking for good belts up to 10 jumps from my home system even rented new offices for the adventure. the belt phenomenon seems wide spread. I now only mine missions and those hidden belts.

I'll give you a pointer tho, I was flying through Tash Murkon (region not system) and all the belts were full and no one seemed to be mining them... Now I don't know if that's just becuase no one's gotten to it yet... but the Hulk/Orca/IttyV Ops usually are hitting on all cylinders right after an ore spawn so might wanna check that area out guys.
System names? One of my alts spends most of his time in that region and the belts I see are mostly empty. Full belts does not mean little pebbles that pop in one cycle. I've mined around there and most times, I can clear a belt with two hulks and an orca in less time than it takes to organise the guys to mine it. Hell, I can clear a system in a single Eve session. I mostly do mission belts now since this is the only way to get some decent returns from mining. At least then the time and effort in organising the mining OP isn't longer than the OP itself.

I can't understand why anybody mines in highsec or lowsec TBH. My first character started as a miner and within a month got into a small corp in a deep 0.0 alliance and was mining arkonor, bistot, and crokite (the ABCs) with armed guards protected by a large bubble gatecamp. I'm not into mining now, but if I were, I sure as heck wouldn't be doing it in highsec. That's dumber than running L4 missions in Dodixie.

Sigh.
I Expect Orcas Armies to hit belts like a truck in 5-6 months, unless march expansion kills it

Contact the CSM about it, voting themselves into disbandment wouldn't be pushing the boundaries of absurdity for them.
