I see that the important ores are almost gone, lots of velspar but not much else, we need more rocks, the replenish rate looks off a lot. ---

I’m not saying that there doesn’t need to be more ore availability, because I don’t think I know enough to be able to answer that question. However, I did want to say that the problem might not be the amount of ore, but how it spawns. You’re posting pretty late in the Eve day, which means that you might be getting the shaft because of cherry picking, and not because there isn’t enough of certain ores being spawned. Perhaps if CCP made ores respawn on timers, versus at DT, that might make things better for AUTZ miners, without creating an oversupply of what is currently the more valuable stuff. ---

> [@Shipwreck\_Jones](#): > > might make things better for AUTZ miners As someone in the AU TZ I can assure you I never had a problem with cherry picked belts. DT is 830pm (9pm for east coasters) for me, leaving a good few hours to mine, if I chose to. NB; haven’t mined since scarcity began and I let most of my subs lapse. ---

> [@Emira\_Sultana](#): > > It’s not “Mining Online” but EVE Online And in EVE Online mining is one of the many activities that players can choose from. Their choice of how they want to spend their time in the game and how to earn ISK. Any activity is good as long as it gives satisfaction to the user. So it’s maybe you to calm down. ---

For a game that’s been around almost 20 years, and is trying to be around for another 20 more… maybe they should have learned how to do better spawn mechanics at this point. For all the things. Belts, belt rats, sites(of all varieties)… it’s been pretty much the same(with a few changes, I admit) for most the time I’ve played.
