If the mining mod were to be permanently disabled - ryoken - 03-04-2011
my heg,and malfic,but no real loss.
What will hurt is 1bil worth of junker chars that were mainly scrappers,but i guess i can refit,and turn them into Pirates,and join the lolwut's.

I wouldnt loose too much in fact, except a possibility to RP with miners and to ship the ore as an in RP action...
since i dont have a miner char, I dont loose anything. Except all the miner encounters on routes, for sure. Some nice talks to good RP'ers. And to the pirates, stationed there to pirate the miners/ore haulers...
Roger Claymore, for example. :)
I understand, that someone may say that all the RP of some chars is built up on mining... But as far as i remember, there was an RP server right before the mining mod... I have been here, too at this time.
And for sure, there was an RP, too... And people who were interested in playing on the server.
Surely, not so many folks in one place, like in the mining locations actually. And not that many good rp'ers at the same time in a sys. but either, not that many lolwuts and troublemakers and Q_Qers.
Such things always have a good and a bad side. And i dont want to judge about atm. Maybe we should just have a look how it will develop. Since we cant do anything at the moment...
greetings

Id lose 2 Hegemons.
Aside from that, nothing. I have grinded my share fairly and enjoying the battleships now.

I would lose RP and interest in whole of discovery, but then again... I allready lost interest when people keep saying miners mine for battleships..

Well, what do I lose?
I lose all my .:j:. characters, since my salvager was only used for scrap mining at Traffie (and the occasional DSE deal at texas) and the fighter and bombers were to protect scrap mining operations when we got the Barges out. That isn't gonna happen anymore.
My trader got consigned to shipping Ore. That can't happen anymore either.
So, I guess I can play my wife's Outcast ships and be reminded how crap I am at pvp...

' Wrote:I'd lose nothing, but it'd be amusing to see how lolwuts will earn their capships now.The silent 'lolwut' Miners will just magically transform into silent 'lolwut' traders. There wont be much difference, except that they may have to trade 4 days, instead of two days of mining for their caps now. The people really affected by this arent the 'lolwuts', for them nothing will change. You dont need to be able to speak english to trade:P
I wont loose much, but I can imagine that pretty much all Mining factions will loose their sources of income as well as their reasons to exist at all.

If the mining mod were to be permanently disabled, what would you lose?
Luckily it's not going to stay down... it'll just receive a much needed profitability nerf. But if it would remain down, what would I lose? All my characters since I'd cease playing on Disco. Mining is what I enjoy in this game, without it I'd not enjoy this game enough to warrant my staying.
