Suicide ganking is a popular play-style and miners are prime targets; cf. [https://greedygoblin.blogspot.com/p/why-was-i-ganked.html Why Was I Ganked?] and [http://gdurl.com/jDkc Suicide Ganking 101 slides] | |||

** Warping out when a non-mining ship enters your belt/anomaly is prudent | * Move away from the warp-in point when mining - this may buy you a some extra time to warp out if another ships lands on grid. | ||
* Warping out when a non-mining ship enters your belt/anomaly is prudent - if in doubt, warp out. | |||
* If attacked, overload your tank modules | * Other mining ships may be scouts for gankers; it is good to know who your neighbors are and put known gankers on your contact list with terrible standing. | ||
* If attacked, overload your tank modules and call for assistance if you are in a fleet. | |||

'''NOTE:''' It is impolite (and diminishes yield) to mine a rock someone else is already mining: when the rock runs out of ore, the first laser to cycle will get the last ore but the other lasers will continue to cycle (up to 3 minutes) and get nothing. | |||
