If you rig it you can afk for about 10 mins (I do this with a dual client dual monitor set-up, and dont try it near any low sec systems or during Hulkaggedon). I was able to support my pvp main for months with just mining alone, but it all depends on mineral prices.

Then I learned, as SOB and others said above, mining is as boring as running L1 missions in a drake - I literally couldn't make myself do it. BUT, I LOVED the possibilities and freedom that a second account brought.

Now my indy alt supports my PvP main completely with very little effort. Between semi-afk mining and building and selling she's grossed nearly 1.5b this month.

I can tell you that mining, even as afk, is really dull. It's also not that afk really unless you decide to macro or something like that. Every few cycles you either need to drop the ore in a can or self haul it someplace. Regardless you will need to haul it about at some point. <br /><br />What I can Daddy Dingohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02463221437881320048noreply@blogger.com
