^ or that…
But then you can’t be alt-tabbed out to Netflix binge watching 37 seasons of One Piece, and that makes ice miners sad…

Thank you for the long headsup, @Jonah_Gravenstein What does being a Bittervet entail? Or, as someone else put it: “Why so serious?”
A bittervet is kind of a meme — basically a grumpy old man shouting “Get off my lawn.”
The use of it in the title is sardonic. While my long-winded post might come off as a bit too serious, it’s actually packed with practical advice that should serve anyone well - if they choose to take it on board. That said, the real purpose was to offer it up to the C&P regulars as a subject for discussion and critique.
I’m new to this particular style of writing, and as a former regular here in C&P, I figured this was as good a place as any to dip my toes back in. With luck (and some well-placed sarcasm), any discussion and feedback will help me sharpen both the content and my delivery in future posts.

Where are you all getting these mining barges with infinite sized holds? What exhumers are you all using that you can all fit 100 billion ISK worth of uncompressed ore inside?
Serious question. I really want to know. I’ll buy one today if you can tell me where to get it
I guess you’ve never noticed the masses of comatose Orca, Retriever, and Mack pilots? That’s okay, they didn’t notice either, not even after I punted them 100km outside of the ice anom because they just sat there for an hour…

The orca pilot yes, but none of the exhumers. I have to compress in my Hulk every 80 seconds. I can’t turn on a movie or my lasers shut off and my drones return to my ship and orbit uselessly.
That needs to be a team sport, set up 2 cans 100km off the belt and about 20km apart as a goal

I’ve transported billions worth around EVE. I plan it like a military operation well in advance, and always use scouts. And patience. The best way to avoid being ganked is for no-one to know you are coming.
Why would a sane person in a slow ship react to your bumping? ignore it and resume mining when you are bored.

I gotta agree with Uriel, paying people to not kill you is probably the most effective way to avoid getting dunked. Pay or die, that’s my philosophy.

Again, enough with the false info. Anyone who gives a ganker money for protection deserves to get blown up. And you will.
