I hadn’t even mined 100 million ISK’s worth of ore in my Navy Apocalypse, which was when it hit me: I’m making fuck all doing this. I used to use a mining bot, but I got temporarily banned for doing that. One extremely rich station trader explained why he uses a market bot: Market bots also heavily impact the game, and individuals are able to accrue tens of billions of ISK at the expense of non-botters. Mining bots are not the only automated players that plague EVE.

I only have to spend money when rats destroy my ship, which I blame on both a glitch in the botting software and CCP for not removing rats from high-sec.
When asked what he spent the one billion ISK a month he gains this way, he said he just lets it accumulate in his wallet:Ĭall me mad, but I just like seeing big numbers amass in my wallet. The only complaint I have is that it takes too many clicks to download the program in the first place. I don’t have to do anything, which is good because I don’t like playing EVE. I like watching the ore go into my cargohold, then I like selling it and seeing my wallet get bigger. I just can’t be bothered to actually click the buttons. An owner of a Mackinaw, who wished to remain anonymous, told me why he botted: These generic programs can be found operating many of the mining barges and exhumers in EVE’s asteroid and ice belts. One of the most prevalent EVE bot types is the common mining bot. This leads to a most intriguing question: why do people do it in the first place? Despised by everyone not among their number and most of their kin, many people believe all bots should be permanently banned from EVE-and some are. Botters are possibly the most hated demographic in EVE.
