I dont understand why every one is crying and upset…

Like really. Stop mining in highsec, put your big boi pants on, grow some hair and go mine in low sec.

You people kinda make me laugh… alot. And ive only been playing for about 2 weeks.

5-10 million isk a hour in highsec… in an orca??? Haha…

I make 35-40 million every 20-30 minutes mining in low sec in a retriver.

But thats cause i got the Chungus to mine in low sec and not sleep at my desk like a old dusty fart.

And i solo mine, no buffs or orca burst. And no, you cant haz muh stuffz or ship fitz.

Sure, if you make a compelling argument as to why that is the case.

I had no problem with it. I was sad when they reverted it back.

Why not both? Mine in HiSec and LowSec and you have 85% of the materials needed to build all the T1 stuffs.
