So im kinda new, but I found a nice quiet little system that was vitually emply till the other day it suddenly always had 1 or 2 guys ALWAYS mining like 24 hours day, both from the same corp, both only a few months old, and both no virtually no standing, or sec status. So 1 how can i be sure they are macro mining? signs? and 2 wtf can I do about it? can I get them banned or something, I think it kinda takes away from the whole gameplay exsperience not to mention ****ing off the legit players.

Suicide ganking them would be satisfying, but I'm not sure if there's a way to report them, especially if for some weird reason they're legit players.

Edited by: VirusMD on 09/01/2009 15:06:12 Edited by: VirusMD on 09/01/2009 15:05:24 its high sec, cant just attack them without losing standing/sec status. Me and a few corp mates were just talking about the group gank idea, we might do that.have to just make a new character for it.

Originally by: VirusMD So 1 how can i be sure they are macro mining? signs?
A good sign is if they do the "warp to belt, mine, warp to station, repeat" cycle like clock work. Then if they aren't answering you in local or on convos they are most likely macros.
Originally by: VirusMD 2 wtf can I do about it? can I get them banned or something
Yes, macro mining is an EULA violation. You can petition them and let CCP deal with it.
I appologize for bringing these sane answers to a question posted in C&P. |

When you petition CCP claim "we'll look into it" however you'll see the same chars in game months later still happily farming away.

Going out on a limb and saying that CCP probably monitors their ISK transactions in order to sting the buyers, if they actually do anything at all. |

look for these signiatures:
1: do they permaboost? 2: dont use drones vs beltrats? 3: noobcorps 4: stupid names that have NO meaning at all (wtfhazmyname) 5: don't respond to convos 6: dont respond when you bump them all the time? 7: dont go OMGWTFUPWNDMYHULK /emoragequit when you gank them?
if they hit on more then 4 of the above lines they probably are macros and need to be ganked! Cheers, Faros

Why does eveyone say this??
I don't respond to convos most of the time because I can't stand talking to idiots. Does that make me a macro miner??

If you cant bother to respond to someone concerned you are a macro, then you deserve a gank. At some point we have to work together to get rid of macros.

Making a character for high sec ganking to avoid the security penalty is classed as a exploit. FYI. |

Because there aren't any guns for you to use without us miners, or ammo. Or ships! |
