At least now you ask the right person. You see, if there where no miners we would not need ships to destroy them.

> [@Entereen\_Valcaltus](#): > > What do you think a NPC miner corporation is? > > (Sorry I keep forgetting this is a role playing thread) Player bots introduce their output to the economy. NPC miner output is blackholed. Like I said… this is your brain on ore. At this point, it should be clear that CODE ganking is basically a mercy killing. ---

Yes but the Ore is depleted in that system by the NPC’s and lack of resources effects the economy basic economics. ---

I’d like to refute that point. Yes the ore is depleted by the NPCs, but the rocks respawn daily and the amount respawned are based on how many were mined yesterday. This make the ore supply reach equilibrium and keep supply/demand in check. ---

> [@Entereen\_Valcaltus](#): > > Yes but the Ore is depleted in that system by the NPC’s and lack of resources effects the economy basic economics. That has no impact on the overall economy. It’s a purely localized effect that, at most, inconveniences a few miners who are too lazy to move over a system. The amount of ore available globally is effectively infinite. There is never **not** a point where you can go somewhere and harvest ore. The bottleneck on ore hitting the market is the time required to harvest it, not its availability in the field. ---

Just read through zkill about the whole CODE, it seems like most of you like to gank smaller ships, frigates and cruisers, probably because gankers can’t afford sth too expensive since they’re bound to loose the ship. I did see bigger ships got killed, all done by a member corp called Nordwind, which has 15 members in game, and they use tornadoes, for which I assume is the high alpha strike tornadoes provide. I see what you mean here. Yeah, by definition CODE do shoot those who can fight back, but only when they have absolute advantage. Pretty much the same for most PVPers, I’m satisfied with this answer. ---
