The Mining Guy
What is the reward for mining or being a minor? Nothing, really, that I know about.
First, comes the increasing the armor of a mining ship. Give the ship a chance to run.
Second, can't there be weekly mining wars? Who mines the most gets one special TANK SHIP with 100.000 armor? Or maybe even gets to own a sector, somewhere, like in Helios? Even has their name on it?

Someone needs to sedate you. Seriously.
Dude, there's fancy ships, high powered mining beams, long range scanners, and more mining badges then anything.
How about the seasoned Deneb war veteran? We don't even get a scoreboard let alone badges.

The reward for being a minor is that you're less likely to get screwed -- unless you're in a Penn State locker room. The reward for being a miner is that I find you, pop you, and pirate yer ores (and any 'ores you may have, too).
Next question.
Next question.
since when has anyone been able to find miners? Ive mined a ton and only just recently got popped in my mining rag because I was afk for 4 hours watching videos...
blackl5404,
I read all three of your recent suggestions, and although I like people posting new ideas to the suggestion forum I think you should take some time and play the game before doing posting here too much. Everyone who plays this game will almost universally disagree with everything you have suggested for a reason, the suggestions make no sense. Spend some time in the game and figure out how things are and why before criticizing it too much.
Regards,
Mulle

I'm still trying to figure out mining, but meanwhile the beams are so pretty and calming...
Oooh! Look: Mining 19!
Role Playing a miner takes a bit more detachment from game mechanics and advantages, and even missions in general, but the mining implementation is a deeper well than most people ever sound out. The first time you discover 2 neighboring systems that each have a rare ore the other doesn't, you MIGHT understand the allure...
On the more concrete side of gaming, the miner moths, both mk I and II have better engines than the standard or XC moths. They are very much worth the grind if you transport large heavy loads, like Fused Composite Plating to build capships, or full loads of oh, say Gatling Cannons or Gauss MkI to profiteer with.
Mining events happen all the time, but they are very much NOT advertised. Invite only: we miners are paranoid of visits from Dr. Lecter, as well as giving out choice locations to players who don't respect our trade.
