Here are my top lucky 7 reasons for macroing. Feel free to add your top reason to the comment list!
1. Mining is boring.
2. Macroing gives you more ore and isk than you can ever achieve by yourself in a 24 hour period.
3. I believe the focus of EVE should be the politics and the PVP not the mining.
4. Top corporations are macroing and you are falling behind if you are not mining often.
5. It is undetectable.
6. Macros are extremely reliable and will not fall asleep at 4 am.
7. Macroing allows me to make isk while not at the computer, period.

Simple Miner Development Update
I was recently having an ICQ discussion with one of our great programmers, Vyacheslav "Slav", about the newest internal version of Simple Miner and how efficient it was becoming. I was so impressed with the progress of the version that I decided to write a developer blog to show you how well the macro is coming along. Simple Miner is still well under development so all of this is subject to change..
The first thing you will notice about Simple Miner is how easy and simple the GUI is, shown below.
The GUI at first appears to not have all the features you would need. The difference between Simple Miner and past macros I have programmed with (OCR/AI Macro) is that Simple Miner is able to make many of the decisions on its own instead of needing you to input the information. Some good examples of this are no longer needing users to tell us if they use a trial account, no more need to tell us when your downtime occurs, no setup requirements past your desktop resolution and much more. Many of the options on this GUI are optional as well and are only there to further perfect your mining cycles.
We recently added the second tab you see on the GUI, which controls our drone and defense systems - a system we have never programmed before. This allows SM to use your defense drones, active tanking and passive tanking to defend against NPC threats. It also allows the user to select when they would like to being attacking and when it is time to call it quits. We have been testing this internally for a few days now and it appears to be working as planned. The GUI for the fighter features is shown below.
The third tab is used for developer purposes and gives us accurate output from the macro runs. Users can select which sections of the code to monitor and send these reports in with bug reports.
With the recent updates to the internal version, Simple Miner is running much more smooth. The macro is successfully using bookmarks or random selection to mine any amount and type of asteroid you please. It is already the most stable and efficient mining macro I have worked on and I cannot wait to see what we can develop for it next. I wish I could give you more details in this update, but those will have to wait a few days longer.
The fighter system is just one example of the advanced features we are currently coding for Simple Miner and I will upload a video of this feature, as well as a few more, very soon. We have many plans for the development of Simple Miner and we are even discussing multi client use, jet can mining, and more. For now, we are focusing on testing all of our features and coding in any additional features we feel are necessary before our first release. Once all features are added we will be polishing the internal version before holding a beta and eventually a trial version before launch. Stay tuned to www.simpleminer.com for more developer updates.
