Then looks like you don’t deserve to be able to mine in that belt.

If you’re this much of a coward, go find another belt to mine in without NPCs.

To be fair, if you’re too scared to shoot NPCs and lay claim to the belt on your own, you probs won’t cut it in EVE to begin with. In my 5 years, I’ve seen plenty of kids like you, the ones that end up sticking around have a warped and hilariously wrong view of the game overall.

What do you even want, kid? You want CCP to change the graphics so it doesn’t look like NPC Ventures are mining with 5 lasers? Would that make your fragile feelings better? You can chase them off by shooting them once and they’ll run away. Now you’ve got the whole belt for yourself. Either that, or move to another belt. You’ve got your solutions.

Cool, warp off and come back in like 1 minute after their combat fleet is gone.

Now that wasn’t too hard, was it, dear?

It’s actually as easy for you too. You just pick another celestial and warp away to it. Wait a minute, then go back. You don’t need billions of isk to do that.

Then looks like you’re better off finding another belt. Again, you have your solution.

You can look at my zkb and see what kind of activity I’m mostly involved in. [Scoots Choco | Character | zKillboard](https://zkillboard.com/character/94346995/) You’ll notice I have almost no highsec miner kills. But you’re free to continue being scared.
