> No, it means you can run as many Omega accounts as you want, but you are only allowed to run that 1 Alpha account. While on an Alpha account it is the only account you are allowed to be on. Even if you have an alpha running on your laptop and several omega on your desktop, that would be in breach of the EULA. So you have two choices; Run a single Alpha account. Run one or multiple Omega accounts. EULA applies to you as a person and not your PC(s).

**What do you say to that?**

I always deliver.

It is not permitted for a person to run multiple alphas clients, or an omega with x alpha clients, simultaneously, regardless of how many platforms they are running on.

Then you need to learn to read

this is not a point about alpha/omega but about you claiming things.

Major claimed it was allowed if its not on the same PC.  
You agreed.  
I said that was false.  
You asked me for evidence.  
I delivered.

Both of you where wrong, and Major specifically said that he should be reported/permabanned if he had been wrong in running multiple alphas/omega+alpha, as was his, false, interpretation of the rules.

Seems he has been cheating.

Its all evidenced in the thread.

Not until we get videos. 😛

That is possible, but I haven’t seen anything concrete to support this.

> [@Anderson\_Geten](#):

I don’t know why you are hung up on causation here and statistical analysis. I have not claimed this is statistically rigorous and even if it were it would not prove causation.

Still when we look through the killboards there is a dearth of procurer/skiff kills. There is not for other mining ships. We also know it is possible to tank a procurer. Even so-so procurer fit will have considerably more tank than the other ships. It is not unreasonable, given our lack of complete data, to conclude that such a switch will lower the likelihood of being ganked or suffering from a successful gank. Your chances of surviving a gank in a covetor depends on things like being constantly aware of your immediate environment and being prepared to warp out.

Not everyone wants to mine like that. So there are options open to players. Like using a tanked proc/skiff. Yes if there are 10 guys ganking together they can gank you. But if it is 2 guys the can’t unless the wait for more pilots. Which again is a trade off situation. Wait for more guys or move on and gank softer targets.

It is kind of like Uber. Uber lets a person with a decent car can earn some extra money on what is likely a kinda crappy investment. Mining is generally a boring activity, but it also lends itself to what I have called semi-afk play. You can get on comms and chat, maybe watch Netflix and relax. But ganking disrupts that. Fitting for tank can help mitigate that disruption.
