Perhaps some of that feeling of being wanted could rub off in the form of trading paint in a series of bumps sometime.

Mining in New Eden is an important part of gameplay and should never be taken for granted. To afk while mining is doing yourself more harm than good. Why afk through something like that? Why not just set a autopilot course through highsec if you want to afk?

Mining is the activity that leads to other greater possibilities in New Eden and should be taken seriously.

If you are in a quiet system and occasionally look for the code you might\* be fine. I would, if you are going to mine. Fly a procuror or a skiff. Max tank for those moments where you might be yanked. Drones out set to focus fire and aggressive.

\*not guaranteed to work, AFK mining is really stupid and a waste of time, chances are you will DIE but it’s your game HAVE FUN!

I taught you correct grammar; I hardly call that trolling. It was a free lesson which you should appreciate with sending me ISK.

Look man, if you don’t pay him for the lesson, then I _will_, and then you’ll owe _me_.
