[Petition] Un-Nerf Mining!

[Veronee]

Serious question.

I'm in two minds cause I feel this "may" cause players to spread out a bit rather than just hang around 23 and dublin.

The reason this go nerfed was QQing and F1ing right?

Cant we put systems in place for that rather than punish everyone?
IE:
If you F1 you drop all cargo immediately.
[*] You get a warning note in your hold
If you swear you lose all cargo and get DC'd for 30 mins.
[*] If you do it in a station it ejects your cargo from the station?

just some random thoughts here.

EDIT: My reasoning for this is I dont believe for a second that the F1'ing, exploiting and cussing will stop because of this. Its just gonna happen to traders.

On my never winter nights server I have a system completely coded from scratch and implemented where if a player tried to log out to escape death (ie hitpoints go to zero or below) they automatically die and leave all thier possessions and inventory in the spot they logged out along with their body.

I know for a fact that that admins can set the f1 out in space to either drop cargo or exsplode. And quite frankly this would be a much more elegant solution to spot camping issues with weapons and other things.



Im surprised the admins havent just implimented this for the f1ing issue so i must assume the f1'ing isnt that big of an issue.. if it IS though.. Cannon//guys.. What the hell are you waiting for?

I run my server single handed with 20+ players on it on a rotation and shes up 24/7 if i had a sanction filing system like you guys have I would be bald and aged significantly beyond 10 years by now.

You have such a large staff but if THAT little abuse issue is giving you too much work you OWE IT TO YOURSELVES to make an automatic measure to deal with it.

Think of your mental health!


I voted yes to un nerfing because nerfing the mining is silly. people are still going to mine there and people arent going to change thier behavior because it affects thier bottom lines. This isnt an economy issue its a mechanics one. so USE A MECHANIC to fix it!!


love
huggie

p.s.

everyone will adapt to it admins shouldn't start worrying about an outcry cause people dont like the fact they can accidental drop all thier cargo cause of net issues or chickening out. please for the love of all that is holy set the f1 to be what it needs to be.

[Exsiled_one]

Voted No. Suck it. It's not punishing all for the sins of minority, it's the constant Q_Q threads that made them do it. The ingame $hit is just something to add so it all makes sense.

I bet they disliked all the chars made purely for greed.
I bet the hated all the gunboats f1ed in dublin, or worse ships.
I bet they hated miners f1ing to relog on their Gunboats or Kusari Explorers.
I bet they hated that the last thing you do with Kusari explorer is exploring (LOL EXPLORING WALLETS!)
I bet it was so messed up how people asked for outrageous sums of cash

I made a poll on how to solve the problem with the old ballance and how to un-nerf it with this alternative.

Please vote and give your opinion there too:

How long does it take now in a normal field for a single miner to fill a 5k transport?

I have no idea that's why I'm asking, was getting the impression it takes over 30 mins?

IT much depends. I can fill a heavy tanker with armor (4780) before it returns from NB trip, which can take from 40-50 minutes pending on various factors.
However alone I would need more time since I have to fly back or F1 and collect the ore, and then myself fly the ore to the New Berlin. So I assume single run would go on some Hour and half, maybe more, earning about 55 millions or such. Double it, divide by three and you have the desired cash earnings.

this server sucks.

I mean honestly, it takes 45-50 mins to mine a full load of say...Niobium and then it takes another 30 mins to get to the destination.
and it makes you like...51mill? which by the way sucks.

AND YET YOU NERF IT?

ITS PIXELS GOD DAMN IT!

Stop ruining this god forsaken server with all your nerfs.

Actually, this a is an opportunity if people would think about it.


This will show who is out to pirate as a RP event, because those people will adjust their habits / demands / etc.

Treat those people well. Rp with them, Pay them. Encourage it.


The ones who were too lazy to Trade / Mine for themselves and decided to Power Pirate to fund their characters / Cap Ship / Etc will not change their behavior.

These people will show their true colors.

50 mill in less than an hour or two? Maybe I'm not use to playing on other servers like you have, but I think that's pretty darned good.

Even before the trading nerfs, I don't think we made that much . . But it was a long time ago . .:unsure:

I used to haul for the miners, Now it's not even worth the hassle.

Why would i waste 45 mins of my life for 30 million?
I won't.

Time is money, Yet when the money ain't worth it, Keep the time.

Edit: Nah You would make 51 million in about an hour and a half unless You were the miner and had 2x haulers giving you 50% of the cut.
