Still can't highsec mine in peace!

Once again I was bothered today. This time it was way different than last time. I was doing some reading online then came back to eve to check the miners. I tried to drag some ore to the hangar on the Orca, but it said I was out of range. I looked closer and noticed I was 45km away from the orca! Wtf?! I also noticed 1 of my other characters was far away too. I checked a different character and that one was randomly shot 7500km away from the group.

I had no idea wtf was going on so I warped everyone out of there. Luckily I had already mined most of the roids so I probably only lost 5million. My Orca was attempting to follow my character and was going like 500m/s (but gradually slowing down), which is insanely fast considering I've only ever seen it go 63m/s.

When I was warping everyone out there were 3 ships in the belt. One caracal and some other non-mining ships I don't remember. They were in good standing (but not green).

Anyone have any idea what the hell they were doing to me for that to happen? I had no idea you could cause ships to randomly fly around a belt. Was it just some major lag?

They might have been bouncing you around. Check out this youtube video of some people bouncing an AFK player away from dock. Its fairly entertaining. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UP1WcFm02Qg

yeah if the keep bumping you can they can move you around a lot.

You can even find a couple of 'bowling' fits on Battleclinic - usually cruisers or battleships with plate + MWD (plate for weight and MWD for speed)

i've never liked how much you could bump people... i never tried to do the math but it doesn't make much sense that some much smaller ship could bump an orca and get it moving far faster than the orca could ever get itself to go.

I have peolpe occassionally bumping my hisec ice team, but usually they leave us 4 alone .

Managed a nice day of mining in the WH yesterday, but today we seemed to have aquired a Russian gank squad, so I've stayed nice and safe behind the force field today. Hopefully tomorrow is a bit quieter!

Weekends in the wormhole are when all the pirates come out.

[Grondir]

Yeah I know. But I logged in at 9am eve timeand there were some Russian probes on DScan and within 15 mins of me being there, we had 15 jumps on Dotlan lol. We had 32 jumps before downtime

Been mostly empty when I was on, but I got an indy ship blown up at a customs office yesterday by a tengu. I just moved all my cargo back to the customs office before being popped and warped my pod out fast. The tengu's hard work was rewarded by one Cargo Expander II dropping. Merry Christmas Mr. Tengu.

Kept expecting that to happen to me when I logged in to sort pi out, but got lucky and nothing happened so far
