Same thing....
PS I confirm that using VTOL in hunt can give to hunter ability to kill strong mobs.
In mining all abilities remains the same except spending time
It gives miners ability to mine, where they would otherwise not be able to.

For the sake of discussion, I'll try to view it the other way around.
The ability to mine specific ores should be granted only to people with extended gear (weapon+amp+fap+armor).
Same thing.

Again: It's the same for hunters and miners.VTOL gives you ability to open all TP's in one day, reaching all places safely, using VTOL storage you can hold and move more weight.
All above is exploit?
I think that all is a technological progress only.
Same thing.

I just don't see any big difference between VTol mining and VTol hunting.
If you get loot without getting hit the system pays you more then it's bringing in, and as such gives you an unfair weight on that mobs' pool which is the utter definition of exploiting.
Again, how about Proteron team hunt?
I mean, it's just same situation
He does not have time to run to us.

hard to say...
Would you question someone using the VTOL mining tactic if there were no mobs around? I don't think so!
Oh come on... Now you're being silly.
Dan, the times change, i never need armor when I mine, i use TP chip and (now) VTOL. I dont use FAP and weapons. This is not required in miner profession (in 2006-2012), and I dont see any reason to using hunter equipment when mining in present days.
Show me where in MA rules, ToU or EULA it says i must use hunting equipment when i only mine.
Please.
You know for MA rules, ToU or EULA where it says that you must use Vtol when you only mine ?
Yes, please find me that.
so what if you are mining in an area with very few mobs around (few enough to avoid aggro), and a mob spawns on you? Are you saying it's not right to use a vehicle to escape? instead you should be forced to kill the mob or be killed yourself, and possibly take unintended decay in the process?For me all players who use vheicles for harasment or use Vtol to loose mob agro and to avoid to create MA revenue on gear decay are all equal in doing so regardles of profession.
They all use vheilcles in a way wich was not intended by MA on start.

If not forbidden (you cannot find any restrictions) - it means you can. And note this is not a must, but only can

what if you have no weapon? you're just suppose to let the mob kill you instead of flying away?
I don't think I understand your logic

Hello Support.
"Vtol/sleipnir mining" where you drop down in the middle of a thick mobspawn and drop your probe then enter your vtol/sleipnir again to loose aggro and then if you find a claim exit/enter between each pull of the excavator, thereby entering a so-called "god-mode", where use of armor or fap becomes completely unnecessary.
Is this method of mining considered an exploit, and therefore proper action will be taken against participants using this exploit?
Or
Is this method of mining NOT considered an exploit, and therefore no action will be taken agains participants using this method of mining?
Exploit or not exploit?

Hi,
Thank you for your report.
This method is considered an exploit, if you are acting this way we recommend you to stop this action, and if you know of avatars abusing this exploit you are welcome to let us know.
Kind Regards,
Entropia Universe Support
Update"inspired" by another post I decided to simply ask support just like that person did about another vtol exploit, and this is what they said:
Edit: can read this in OP too, as well as the original OP
