I win by power of actually being right and because I had delicious halibut for dinner on a kabob.
Also, dear lordy lord Hone. Just... Dear lord.
Dear lord? is that it? Thats a pretty insubstatial reply, i thought i made some good points, theres no shame in admitting your wrong you know.
And again on the sbject of miners just becoming Mollys if they are given a bonus, (and i do apprecciate the work to actually have some bmms to shoot) - A load of poorly protected Mollys hanging around, Sound like Bretonia Police might actually get something to do besides envy BAF for once - a few destroyed mining ships should convince the bandwagon jumpers (if there even are many) that they havn't suddenly gained immunity.

I replied to all of your good points.
Take that as you will.
But, since you're determined to discuss the matter I'll elaborate.
The only point you raise in your entire post directed at me that was even approachable, the final one, is both inconsequential given the parameters that I've already informed the readers of this thread that mining will follow and has furthermore been addressed innumerable times in the past. I have little interest in taking the time to lay out the mechanics that prompt player populations, based upon observation and experiment, to move in the directions they do yet again. Especially not to satisfy the demands of an individual who opens his wall of text by freely condemning things he doesn't understand.
The rest of your post, as well as those above it, were so riddled with poor structure and incoherent arguments based upon a grasp of game mechanics so insubstantial as to cause anyone with a whet of experience with the game proper to apply palm to face.
' Wrote:Time to engage the flamethrower again and say: nobody bans the Mollys/Hessians from mining as is. The bonuses might not be there, but that doesn't mean you can't do it. In fact, I'd say it's pretty awesome considering the mining ship has a CD, so what you do is you go out mining with some escort (could be anything from a fighter to a gunboat), fill yourself up a bit with shooting rocks, and the rest with shooting another miner:P
It's extremely nice, that, and rather profitable too. Then once you're done filling it up you fence the ore to one of the ever present IMG transports around and make $$$. What worries me however is that none of you who whinge in this thread about bonuses and numbers ever actually came up with the idea.
[Irony on]
Blasphemy!
That would require interaction, cooperation, gods forbid even a semblance of RP. Your idea is utterly inconsistent with brainless grindmining, hence not a viable option.
Heck, it doesn't even lessen the risks and/or time per credits earned.

I had to edit it back, I originally put in "Mollies have had a bonus this whole time you sad scrubs" but then that'd cause even more drama so I ended up turning it into a serious post.
