They’re not AFK. They’re cargo scanning targets en route and waiting for the right one to jump through.
Indeed, to do something in game while you are not at the computer is EVE’s core design…
Yes, and now we have less skill points per dollar since the raise, CCP did not raise your attributes as compensation.
So they are managing another account in the meantime? Surprise, some Miners run an Abyssal Site or blitz a L4 Mission or do a 0.0 Ano on an active account during the 15 minutes their 10 Mackinaws need to fill the Icebay. How can you tell they are watching Netflix. Fact is, both do not give any attention to their multibox alts and we all have agreed countless times at all topics that anyone who does not pay attention to his envorinment while undocked needs to die, and rightly so. Tether was just in the way of that, so it got removed. You should support it!

The game needs to make it not interesting to be inactive in-space. Does not mean that you need to die. This a non sequitur
ehhh… I think you didn’t get the joke.
I think its really depressing that " some Miners run an Abyssal Site or blitz a L4 Mission or do a 0.0 Ano on an active account during the 15 minutes their 10 Mackinaws need to fill the Icebay".
But its what CCP wants the game to exclusively cater to, so who am I to argue. Pretty clear thats why they limit non-krabs but carefullly make sure not to disrupt the maw-filling.

so… massive multiboxing should be nerfed harshly?
Would get my vote but I doubt Hilmar would like it.
Not that they would. They just like removing choices in general.
Removing things from a sandbox is just taking the sand out, a bit at a time.

Nah, don’t wanna split hairs right now, but sometimes you need to remove some other things than sand from a sandbox. Cracked glass for example. Or children that behave like thugs, especially towards smaller and weaker children. Sometimes they take it too far and even use cracked glass to threaten other children, impairing their joy in the sandbox. And then its time for an adult to step in and remove the glass at least. And if they don’t learn, the children as well.

The vocal minority who honestly thought high sec ganking is anything short of trashy troll play will now have to pvp against people who will shoot back and without your concord safety blanket.
Have fun actually learning how to play 
ls is going to be full of noob gankers and it is going to be delicious. No more concord safety blankets.
Except this sand box was designed with that in mind. You don’t like it? Find friends or HTFU 
Wut. CONCORD protects the gank victim, not the ganker LOL.
People could always shoot back or evade. What’s funny is the successful gankers know much more about PvP and battle logistics than the average high seccer.
Why do you think no one fights back? It isn’t that they can’t. They don’t know how
ok. at first: I don’t take games too seriously, and I honestly don’t care what kind of crazy agendas or ideologies some people prefer. And if anyone asks me to double-check every stupid meme, motto or logo for being related to some kind of IRL propaganda, just no. I won’t waste my time with that. Usually I can sense after a few chats who is an ***hole and who is not and if he is, I simply don’t interact with him any more. Should they make obvious RL-racisitic statements, I report them and thats it.
Now, to the joke: it is simply a mirror to the gankers because in countless topics it was exactly THEIR argument to say “whoever does not pay attention to his environment deserves to be ganked”. Well, that should count for gankers as well and because of that its only logical that tether is removed, so they cannot sit afk under tether any more. And I simply enjoy beating people with their own arguments, especially when it is so obivous.

Maybe, now it has been redesigned by the owner because he thought the children would be more sensible with their freedoms, but somehow they weren’t. Accept that or GTFO

This is sometimes said as a dig at AFK miners because, as we all know, you can AFK mine - but you cannot AFK gank.

So true, even jumping in highsec a miner can set to warp to the next gate and go afk as the faction police won’t attack a miner unless their standing is like - 2+/= system limits.
Re-designed because people are crying and can’t handle?
Including you
It’s ok bruv. Just live with the fact that you can’t handle losing pixels in a vidya game and you had to cry to daddy CCP to save you ROFL.
Lol none of this is how this will work. Gankers fleet won’t just be sitting in space lol. This adds 0 legit targets. Literally 0. All this change did was further bubble wrap the very playerbase that’s killed this game.
Y’all take things too far. Just cause things are POSSIBLE doesn’t mean they’re PRACTICAL and we’re to the point where ganking is merely possible. The profitability no longer exists. To gank for profit you have to tag up which now consumes all your profit.
Give it a couple months to settle in and ganking will be all but dead. The community is certainly on it’s way out.

Yeap!
That’s what I am saying that CCP just helped the rich haulers with this update
If you do tiny ganks then it’s griefing… so you would have to tether up for the big targets, but where’s the tether?
Unless CCP wants the gankers to burn all their ISK with clone tags or want to see the doing ratting for a week for fixing the sec status
