And I did not fall for it. It’s only difficult as long as no one masters is. Once it is mastered you will claim it is “too easy” again and it has to made “more difficult” again. You will not be satisfied until it is so annoying that it can’t be mastered. So why not skip all that and talk about what you really want, to make it so annoying that no one wants to bump anymore. Agreed?

Most people agree that manual piloting is the hardest thing to do well.

Dracvlad wants it to be nerfed, because he is too lazy to learn the skill.

How about instead, we nerf mining. No skill = no reward.

You used the term annoying, I want it super difficult, which you of course define as annoying. I want bumping to be situational in that you cannot bump someone for hours, I have made it pretty clear.

It is too easy now to bump someone for hours.

Dracvlad, when was the last time you bumped a freighter for hours?

I did it on the test server for an hour and a half, does that count? It was a couple of years back, I don’t have access to the Test server currently.

Of course you would say that. In any case if I can do it then it can’t be that difficult.

I have never done it on TQ, but have on the test server. I will keep repeating that if you want. As I said if I can do it anyone can.

If I remember correctly you always argue about bumping makes ganking too easy and that does not involve bumping for hours. So no, it’s still not clear what you want.

Dracvlad wants high-sec mining to be safe, so he can farm AFK.

I have nothing to prove, as far as I am concerned because I could do it it is not that difficult.

I don’t mind if one or two bumps stop a warp, but after that, nope, I used the word situational for a reason. Does that help?

LOL bumping = hisec mining, wonderful mental gymnastics, the balance on miner ganking is about right.

Ok, so… when you ran your simulation on the test server, who was the freighter pilot that you bumped for over an hour? I know you wanted to test this under realistic conditions, so you naturally asked a skilled pilot to test this with you?

It was only really important when I tested the Bowhead.
