Dart's Mining Suggestion

[Dart]

This, bad.

It will take long time to fill up a transport, hours perhaps. Miner <-> transports is the basic interaction that will be reduced significantly.

Then the transports blow up somewhere with 200 million after failing to comply with a demand of let's say 90 million.

The level of whining will skyrocket compared to what is it now.

And I'm also strongly against the idea of approved factions with huge in-game advantage.

As I said, Mining shouldn't be an "indie" activity. it should be a group activity.

I havent made it clear, but i suppose i should make it clear now
an approved faction should be made like this:
An application to somewhere whether to an official faction or the faction creation request board,
a signature of 3 players. ----> approval!
a 2 week or so evaluation of RP. If its a lolwut faction, kill it.

the problem over mining right now is that too many lolwut indie's are responsible for this mess. the only way to directly combat this is to make indie mining difficult and to highly encourage a group effort.
yes piracy will be brutal and painful. This is something you have to deal with. just look at the coast of Somalia. Its not like those pirates as for 3 million dollars to the ship's captain, they steal and ransom the ship!

again, the idea is to encourage a group effort, this shouldnt be restricted to one faction either,

and to remind you, I'm the co-leader of BMM. I don't mind seeing other factions with my ID so long they RP right.
