There was an issue with parsing this post's BBCode Everytime you buy something that says "made in china" you are helping the rising unemployment in your own country unless your from china, Buy locally produced goods and help create more jobs. |

My goodness, I remember having to work my butt off just to mine for the first 1 million ISK. Now look where I am today: a Hulk pilot with an Orca alt racking in at least 20 million ISK in a single hour. Talk about coming a long way from a Navitas. |

Hehe, that was an estimate. That's assuming I'm using mining upgrades, mining foreman links, implants and drones. Unfortunately for me, since I'm on high alert from gankers, my mining yield has dropped to about 13 million ISK every 1 hr 45 minutes (taking into account interruptions in mining flow). It sucks. |

You should probably switch to a profession that makes you more than 7.5 million ISK per hour. In fact, I think you'd be a lot better off just buying a PLEX, because you're working for 30 cents an hour at that rate.
But I guess that would involve having to shoot things, which in a game like Eve is a ludicrous notion. Notify: You are eaten by the Whumpus

Me + T1 drones + Covetor + MLU T2 + Strip Miners T1 + Arkonor = 27M per hour.
When we do have the squad, wing and fleet commander boosts running with Orcas, I have to stagger my strip miners because the ore is coming in too fast.
Now the fun part - hauling all that ore to somewhere useful.  CSM do you think? No matter the changes, high sec people chose the safests. Lots of stick and they will leave. Half the problem is the players in null sec; we do not want to be there with you. |

I can't believe anyone is stupid enough to still mine in this game past the first four or five hours. Lowest effort:reward ratio I can think of. Notify: You are eaten by the Whumpus

Since you specifcally mention the "effort : reward ratio".. Seeing how mining is almost zero effort, I don't really see your argument there.
Also, "reward" is not a very clear term either. For someone needing quick ISK and a lot of it, mining might not be very rewarding, but for someone just wanting to chill out a bit, chat with ally mates, planning skills/fits/events/..., watching some series etc., its quite a rewarding activity.
If I mission, I usually fly L3 atm, one task takes me about 30 mins to finish (not rushing here either), afterwards I'm about 3 mil (+ LP, salvage stuff and named mods I kept) richer. Missions aren't much more challanging than mining, but require more attention. So, instead of doing mining and a lot of other stuff at once, I'm mostly just missioning.
Basically, if you mine, your reward is ISK and having a good time while when missioning, your reward is only ISK (+standings/LP).
So, for me, mining is less effort and more reward than missioning.
I think it's a bit premature to define effort:reward as simple as time:ISK, especially in a sandbox such as Eve, where there are so many goals and playstyles.
(Incursions and PvP are a different matter entirely (for me), but that'd be OT now^^) |

I have two screens, I can play another game, post on the forums, browse, et cetera while mining.
