It doesn’t matter what his definition of afk is. Their reasoning is a Lie. They are not some noble crusaders out to rid the Eve universe of afk capsuleers. They are simply a bunch of idiots picking out easy targets at vulnerable moments to kill and get a sad kick out of it. If they actually admitted that I’d have a sliver of respect for them but instead they keep pushing the lie. ---

I may try some semi-afk mining in my Orca/Skiff mini-fleet and post the results. I think it’s going to be well under 5min, but I might be surprised… ---

Well i won’t argue with you on the point your ganking AFK miners. When i mine i’m always on the keyboard and listening to interviews online. But I am always on the keybaord. Some how gankers do not see this difference and i still get ganked. Be it keyboard or not, it encourages me to go afk not that i will because your going to get ganked either way. It’s just become one big ■■■■ show thats grown out of proportion. Like i said, i didn’t mind it back in the day because it wasn’t so excessive. It’s grown to a point where the dog is now starting to eat it’s tail from the tip all the way to the base. Let’s see what Fenris will do when the dog will want to eat beyond the base. ---

This is what i have seen, you gankers do have talent, skill beyond your wildest dreams. It’s a shame you spent it on ganks and not something else more creative in game. Don’t you want to grow and see what other dreams could lead you to be or has it become too difficult for you to do this. ---

it’s the end result that sucks. Yes it’s profitable but to me, yes to me it’s dull and boring. You might say the same for a miner who just smashes rock. That rock becomes are resource, the resource ends up going through trade on the market for creation. To build a ship or structure or what not. I know you will argue the point, each one to their own i guess. ---
