As a new Miner in New Eden I just want come home make my afternoon toast with a thin spread of vegemite, sit down at my desk, log in and mine without any interruptions from the world around me. At home that Miner gets their wish from the world around them but… _but_ Do they get that in New Eden? No, soon after they undock warp to their favorite asteriod belt and launch their mining drones a few minutes later some npc pirate faction warps in to upset their mining and then the drones need to be recalled or at least one needs to be recalled but… _but_ it is some form of interuption as their goal was to log in and mine in peace. Can’t put it any more plainly than that! ---
