Highsec Miner Grab Bag #139


Uh oh, you know what that means... It's time for the latest edition of the Highsec Miner Grab Bag!


It amazes me how some carebears can be so prejudiced against gankers. BlackNova33 took one look at our Agents and dismissed them.


I don't get why he thinks I'm impersonating Einstein.


A lot of EVE players like to leverage their connections (real or imagined) to various organizations. But there's only one name worth dropping in highsec, and it's James 315.


sruta j insisted that he belonged to a powerful group--one that our Agent didn't want to mess with. But we've heard it all before.


If sruta's alliance was so powerful, why couldn't they protect him from being ganked?


In what has become a recurring storyline in recent Highsec Miner Grab Bags, Izekial Rage thanked Nion Nostro for reporting his attempts to recruit Grab Bag "victims". Izekial was confident this would serve as a boost for his organization. So far, though, he has yet to recruit anyone.


Jang 11 was spoiling for a fight, but then he admitted that he had no money. I guess that means our Agent won the fight?


Miners need to quit the whole "I'm a new player because I just came back after a break" nonsense. We all take breaks from EVE. Besides, miners should be spending that time reading MinerBumping to prepare for their return.


If miners like lowsec so much, why don't they live there?


For a highsec miner, this guy spent an awful lot of his time thinking about lowsec. If only he showed a little interest in the Code.


Dawn Pollux isn't typical; we know that statistically, almost nobody quits EVE due to being ganked. And the people who do leave for that reason aren't the kind of players we want. I'd gladly trade ten thousand Dawn Polluxes for one decent content creator--and I wouldn't be surprised if CCP feels the same.

    1. What a snowflake. He keeps talking about what others need to do to earn his respect when he should be thinking about it the other way around.

    3. So Professor, to you this is elite PvP. This is also roleplaying. So that means that you role play a character that is ok with killing unarmed people, now think about that.

      You can accept and play as a person who is actually perfectly fine and happy to promote killing unarmed people.

      A sandbox game allows players to express who they are deep down inside but do not do so in a public setting for fear of reprisal.

      That means you are in fact an actual person who is ok with killing unarmed people.

  3. "If miners like lowsec so much, why don't they live there?"

    Exactly!

    It makes me laugh every time some highsec carebear has the audacity to suggest thay they know anything at all about PVP or where the elite type happens.

    Or that they would know the difference, with their obvious learning impairment and extra chromosome.

  4. Why purchase permits, when that sector of the galaxy is commanded by CONCORD

    1. Does CONCORD prevent miners from being ganked in hisec, or are they more of a reactionary force?

      And, do you know the difference and why it's pertinent to your argument?


      I'ma go with "no" all around.

    2. Concord never fails, so yeah its their space.

    5. CONCORD punishes the attacker, not protects the defender

    6. Still concord space, they never fail to eliminate those who break their laws.

    7. Code can try to JUSTIFY hisec as their property, but we all know it belongs to the MIGHTY CONCORD. Concord wins every time always, without fail.

  5. Look a whole new article of code tears because they cannot pvp.

  8. 4:25, be very glad they don't. James would buy the permits for all of us. That would save the logistics hassle with the Catalysts.

  11. To call gunning down someone who has no ability, or little ability, to defend themselves "elite PVP" is the same as sucker punching a 6 year old and calling it championship boxing.

  12. Test of Valour. Prove you are not afraid to die by Coding a valuable ship, and do so in a manner that demonstrates integrity and honesty.

    Test of Wisdom. Correctly answer the almighty Lord Rage’s questions three. Each question must be answered within 20 seconds. The Questions Three will be different for each code monkey each day.

    Test of Fortitude. Walk a mile in the miners shoes by becoming a miner. You must continue to mine for an indefinite period of time.

  13. Don't kid yourselves. Even the dirtiest pirates from the birth of EVE have been carebears. They use alts to bring them goods at cheap prices and safely, rather than live with consequences of their in game actions on their main, from concord to prices

  14. Alas, expecting a "gf" back from an agent is, at best, a lesson in futility and broken expectations. Agents who get caught at gates and killed, get disrupted warping into a site and get killed, get ECM jammed and their victim saved (and themselves subsequently killed) seem to have a visceral inability to reply back to a "gf".

    I wonder why?

  15. How CODE acts:

    Government agencies at all levels aimed to exclude Jews from the economic sphere of Germany by preventing them from earning a living. Jews were required to register their domestic and foreign property and assets, a prelude to the gradual expropriation of their material wealth by the state. Likewise, the German authorities intended to "Aryanize" all Jewish businesses, a process involving the dismissal of Jewish workers and managers, as well as the transfer of companies and enterprises to non-Jewish Germans, who bought them at prices officially fixed well below market value. From April 1933 to April 1938, "Aryanization" effectively reduced the number of Jewish-owned businesses in Germany by approximately two-thirds.

    What code forces miners to pay for:

    During the Nazi era, German authorities reintroduced the Jewish badge as a key element in their plan to persecute and eventually to destroy the Jewish population of Europe. They used the badge not only to stigmatize and humiliate Jews but also to segregate them and to watch and control their movements.

    How code fights:
    Blitzkrieg means “lightning war”. It was an innovative military technique first used by the Germans in World War two and was a tactic based on speed and surprise. Blitzkrieg relied on a military force be based around Light tank units supported by planes and infantry (foot soldiers). The tactic was based on Alfred von Schlieffen’s ‘Schlieffen Plan’ – this was a doctrine formed during WWI that focused on quick military victory. It was later developed in Germany by an army officer called Heinz Guderian who looked at new technologies, namely dive bombers and light tanks, to improve the German army’s maneuverability.


    Minerbumping.com propaganda is just like:

    Films released to the public concentrated on certain issues: the greed of Jews; the greatness of Hitler; the way of life for a true Nazi especially the young and as World war 2 approached, how badly Germans who lived in countries in Eastern Europe were treated.

  16. Good evening, New Eden. Allow me first to apologize for this interruption. I do, like many of you, appreciate the comforts of everyday routine, the security of the familiar, the tranquility of repetition, the totality of blogs. I enjoy them as much as any bloke. But in the spirit of commemoration, where upon important events of the past, usually associated with someone's death or the end of some awful bloody struggle, are celebrated with a nice holiday, I thought we could mark this November the 5th, a day that is sadly no longer remembered, by taking some time out of our daily lives to sit down and have a little chat. There are, of course, those who do not want us to speak. I suspect even now, orders are being shouted into telephones, and men with moderator accounts will soon be on their way. Why? Because while the truncheon may be used in lieu of conversation, words will always retain their power. Words offer the means to meaning, and for those who will listen, the enunciation of truth. And the truth is, there is something terribly wrong with this country, isn't there? Cruelty and injustice, intolerance and oppression. And where once you had the freedom to object, to think and speak as you saw fit, you now have censors and systems of surveillance coercing your conformity and soliciting your submission. How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well, certainly, there are those who are more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable. But again, truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror. I know why you did it. I know you were afraid. Who wouldn't be? War, terror, ganking. They were a myriad of problems which conspired to corrupt your reason and rob you of your common sense. Fear got the best of you, and in your panic you turned to the now high chancellor, James 315. He promised you order, he promised you peace, and all he demanded in return was your silent, obedient consent. This night, I seek to end that silence. This night, I corrupt the MB to remind this community of what it has forgotten. A great citizen wished to embed the fifth of November forever in our memory. His hope was to remind the world that fairness, justice, and freedom are more than words; they are perspectives. So if you've seen nothing, if the crimes of this Code remain unknown to you, then I would suggest that you allow the fifth of November to pass unmarked. But if you see what I see, if you feel as I feel, and if you would seek as I seek, then I ask you to stand beside me, inside the gates of High Sec, and together we shall give them a fifth of November that shall never, ever be forgot.

  17. So the victims of their villainous deeds would descend upon them bringing forth new weapons and new warriors who would fight in new ways. Those who had done them harm would find fate without mercy and they would feign bravery. Alas fear wells up deep from within and a very real shiver ascends the spine of the criminals and murderers as they now look into the very mirror of their animosity. They cannot win a war that reflects themselves.

    So it is written in the book of rage.
