Minierbumping is ceasing updates. CCP should erect a statue to honor James 315 and Minerbumping in Jita(halaima is also acceptable), for this amazing feat of a blog that lasted 8 years. EIGHT years. He has posted almost every single day. Truly, a wonderful and great chapter of EVE history is coming to a close. All hail James 315. Code will continue its efforts. ---

🔴 Sadly I don’t have a doll to show you. CODE never managed to gank any of my freighters, DST or BR. They tried multiple times and Siegfried Cohenberg has some fond memories of me tricking him a couple of times. 😇 It is actually sad that I never managed to pull of a gank of my own on one of his shiny Machariels. Especially the latest edition with X-Type abyssal MWD. ---

The blog is shutting down, ganks are continuing. So you have all the opportunity and time in the world to try and gank their machariel.

You are right, apples and oranges. James got more tears so maybe the monument should depict a waterfall in space. ---

In the event that the OP is legit: Much like TEARS, CODE had it’s time and now needs to quietly slink off into the night. You know that won’t happen though. The remains will struggle for relevance and lost glory for at lease a year before moving on to other F2P MMOs with lax gank mechanics. ---

Katia Sae has a memorial so no need to put up a new one. I can agree on giving James a gold star sticker but a statute or memorial HA keep on dreaming CCP may do stupid â– â– â– â–  but they are not that stupid. ---

Fair enough. We should have a dedicated system with monuments to various influential players and groups. Katia, James, CODE, BOB, Goons, etc… When you and your organization single handedly affect the behavior, fits, loadouts, and shipping routes of every player in high sec for years, I’d say that’s quite an achievement… ---

CCP ran a special segment on the top 13 must-see places in New Eden. Katia’s statue was on there. It seems odd that she is the only player in the history of the game to have her own monument.
