[Petition] Un-Nerf Mining!

[aerelm]

Due to massive amount of Q_Q that led to the other threads being locked, I didn't get time to post my opinion in the other ones, so, Here it goes:

Mining Must be More Profitable than Trading, Because, a Trader is moving around 6 - 10 systems per run and can avoid the known Pirates even with flying off the map! A Miner? Must stay in the Mining fields and will be 'Easy Target'. So, More Risk = More Profit!
Even if you nerf Mining to 1/3 Trading Profit, Miners will still be targeted by Pirates more often than Traders, cause Miners are the Easy Targets! A Pirate can F1 his Ship in the Mining field and come back half an hour later to pirate 4 Miners. Same Pirate can't F1 his ship in middle of the Trade Lane to come back half an hour later and shoot down 4 Traders... See the difference?

Traders Can:

• AFK-Trade
  
• RP on the Move and still have the same profit
  
• Read books while Trading
  
• Make same profit no matter if they're flying on full manual or using 'Select JH, F2, F3, Select JH, F2, F3'
  

Miners Can:

• AFK-Mine
  
• RP while Mining and still have the same profit
  
• Read books while Mining
  
• Make same profit no matter if they're shooting rocks or not -owait...
  

Although, if the Balance Team believe Mining is making an 'Unbalanced' Profit, they can 'nerf' it a bit, But lowering it to Roughly Same profit as Trading is not a logical move.

P.S: To everyone who are 'freaking out' over Mining being nerfed: How about you go and get some rest? Go spend a few hours with friends or family, We're talking about a 10 years old Spaceship Game afterall! No need to go "ZOMGNOTHEYNERFEDMININGQ_Q_Q_Q_Q_Q" And after you're back from your short rest, If you Really want to do something about this nerf, post a reasonable argument on Why Mining should be more profitable than trading, not going all Q_Q and raeging, cause that won't really help!
