As you know, I am a null bear Rorqual tycoon. I currently command a fleet of fifty excavator drone hives, which operate under an umbrella of pure autism. I live in a Spodstar, and the gates to my invincible domain are permanently bubbled by some newbros that I hired on Fiver. If any neutrals approach within 20 jumps of my bastion, my bot automatically logs off to online fifty highsec Orcas.
Recently, CCP has made a number of changes to the mining meta which are thoroughly concerning to me. In particular, I am worried about the impact this will have upon new players. New players seeking to make inroads into nullsec are already challenged enough by the realities of my complete and utter domination. However, CCP now wants to make things even more challenging, by nerfing mining?
I’ve talked to a lot of new players, who watch me suck up entire belts before they can lock a single rock, and they are all gravely concerned about the impact these changes will have upon the new player experience. If new players cannot find a meaningful way to challenge me, then they will have no choice but to join the other new players, who endlessly circle the gate and wonder whether anyone will ever enter local.
Right now, I am mining as much as possible, in order to build up my reserves beyond infinity. What will new players do when they cannot grind like me? How will new players find their purpose in EVE Online, without the ability to AFK mine literally all day every single day for twenty years straight?
This reminds me of how CCP has recently been trying to ban my bots. I typically run several dozen Ishtars and VNI bots, which continue to earn income while I sleep, but CCP wants to nerf botting into the ground. CCPLEASE! How will new players manage to get ahead in the game, if they cannot bot all day like me? My accounts were recently banned, and it was really annoying to generate entirely new characters. Fortunately, I can afford to skill inject my new bots, but new players simply cannot compete if CCP continues to wage this campaign against the little guy.
Ultimately, I think it’s clear that CCP needs to make significant buffs to capital class mining barges and superexhumers. It’s hard enough for me to get by, with a trillion ISK invested in AFK Jita market trade botting, and new players need access to these same opportunities so that they can compete. We all need to stand together and demand that CCP reverse scarcity and work overtime to ensure that we can all enjoy automated gameplay.
This article is cancer. You try to be ironic I guess but it just comes off quite dumb and non-satirical. Please actually put in some effort next time.
It’s true I run one of the largest newbro corporations in the game and nerfs to the rorqual are really going to hurt the newbros.
Are “bots” still working? Acceptible?
