Finally fired up Eve after being gone for 5 years. It felt rather good to hear "Warp drive activate!" again. Lol
In my first month back, I made 100mil ISK in exactly the same way I did 5 years ago; I lost 30-some-odd-mil from clone upgrades as I increased my Serpentis standing 1.2%; remembered that my last project from 5 years ago was to find enough cheap Tritanium to build a Raven that I must have lost to mission gone bad; despite that, I still remember how to do lvl 4 missions successfully; had to refit nearly all my ships as it seems many are now single weapon type specific; found out that missiles load helluva lot slower than they used to; came to discover that ninja looting is now a bit more dangerous; I got hit by a Margin Trading Scam (sorta. Its just gonna take time to resell); and realized that I still have a fairly accurate mental image/map of most high traffic places in Eve.
In other words, business as usual. Big smile

So what should I focus on next?

Come to wormhole space. We have cookies.

Be an ISK doubler with a bonus room in teamspeak. Guaranteed money here folks.

Post with your NPC alt main and not your main main alt!

0.0 Ninja ratting in Fountain. The place is deserted half the time. Much can be said for most of null sec. Very quiet.

Welcome back! Lol

Five years? There are some things you should know.

"Enduring", "restrained" and "ample" as designations for starship components are foreign to the genre of high-tech science fiction and don’t belong in Eve Online. (And as for “scoped” …)
