Personal experience, mate :)



that will be cool but i dont care about that, i love when someone asks to see my fit, or they ask if my cap stable single rep incursus is dual rep because im perma tanking them, its the little things about pvp, how you get all jittery, how you make sure your dcu is on, all your mods are overheated etc, to me thats what matters, the moments leading up to pressing f1


Posting your killmails is really all about "bragging rights". Having fun should be your main goal in PvP. But being able to look back on BC and see exactly HOW MUCH fun you've had in EVE.... well, that's always a nice feeling. All I'm saying, by mentioning that.


speaking of which, what is going on with zkill this week, it has almost nothing on me for this month, my alliance board, thats posting properly, are they just swamped with all of eve dying and killing?

First time I actually voluntarily PvP'd, I was all like:

OMG I had a deer in the headlights look, i had to light a cigarette as if i just experinced a 4 hour firefight and even considered seeing a shrink for PTSD afterwards lol, but pvp is like a drug, and all it took was once :p

Could stand to be diplomatic, for the gods' sakes. She's running for "office". Remember what happened to Mr. Romney?

Posting in yet another Bitter Vets thread. (I just like the way it sounds.)
Nothing like making up something then ranting about it. Seems like real life!

I've been playing since mid 2007, with maybe 4 months break in that time, have over 4000 kills and I still get adrenalin when fighting. Not from fleet stuff as that's pretty boring but proper small gang or 1v1 solo close fights, especially when I'm in a 500+ mill ship.

I would imagine the people that told you that are sov holding bitter vets who do nothing more then anchor up and f1.

So August will make one year that I have been playing (its almost been a year since fountain. which brought me to the game) and when i first started I proclaimed on these forums about zomg pewing in ships = much adrenaline , such wow. Annnnd than i had the vets come in...NO YOU CANT HAVE FUN, THAT ADRENALINE WILL WEAR OFF!! they proclaimed. well, i took a month off recently as RL had me going in every direction imaginable except the direction that led to my computer. Ive been back 4 days, and have won 4 fights, lost 6 almost 200 mil isk and have had a smile on my face the entire time. When you have a thrasher in structure when youre in an atron and you dont get all shaky, you're playing the game wrong., or have extremely low blood pressure and should seek medical attention.

To the new players coming in, SP doesnt matter, you wanna pvp? go pew, lose ships, for the love of the amarrian gods have fun, worry about thermodynamics later, learn about tracking, and tracking speed, just play how you wanna play. to the bitter vets who said that adrenaline would wear off, you were massively wrong and in a way i wish you still experinced the game as I do, with a smile, not by station spinning, but buy watching 13 million isk go up in a spectacle of fire and sparks with the words capsule ejected above where youre modules used to be. we may all proclaim EVE = RL but until i sit in a condor with light missles and warp to a sun at 100km its a game, have fun guys

TL;DR: Bitter vets are wrong, much pew, such boom, many wow, and grr goons (i think that covers everything)


You made up some things said by some people you imagine exist.

Congratulations on finding your fun.

But but I need ISK to pew and I need to wait for X skill before I go pvp

I think that's my fallacy, goddam ISK and waiting for X skill to complete

I got together with an old girlfriend once and sparks flew too but by the third date we knew it was a mistake, a couple more and it was like watching soap opera repeats, a couple more and sparks flew from my astron as her tongue thrashed out at me. and we parted ways, podded of course..

Of course we did it again and then again, the dream unfolded as before and the sparks flew earlier and earlier. Finally we just skip the screening and wave middle fingers at each other with nary a smile when we pass.
