For many years I have given EVE a try, time after time again, to only come to this conclusion. EVE is not a game for normal people. After starting to dislike it, I'm now at the point I really hate it.
I just hope that eve continues to exist for at least another 10 years so all the scammers and sort like have a place they can call home.

bye bye, will not miss this game , not for a second.

Wonder if there will be that typical eve player mind thing "can I have you're stuff?"

maybe just this, shouldn't a game be a place where a player can relax and get to do some FUN!!! stuff with like minded players after a day of work on the little free time he has?

You need to find the right group in the game to find your like minded players.
In this it sounds like you failed.

EVE is becoming shallow and puerile; it will satisfy neither the veteran nor the "WoW" type crowd in the transition.

No, this game is not supposed to be fun. This game is much deeper than that. If you need it shallow, please take all those addicts from reddit and go somewhere else! That's what you want! Bye! Lol

If you are going to break the forum rules with a "quitting Eve" post, you could at least give us the story of the scam that you fell for that made you quit.

Otherwise how will other players learn about what scams to look out for?

Eve is a hardcore, anything (nearly) goes kind of game, as you have no doubt realised.
If all you want is to switch off your brain and have some fun, play Mario Kart.
You need to calibrate your brain to accept a different way of evaluating "winning" in Eve. Example: you jump into a bubble gate camp when doing some exploring but you manage to escape using MWD and cloak trick, whilst flying a T1 frigate being hunted by 2 interceptors and an interdictor. Smack talk the bad pilots in local, GTFO with 200,000,000 ISK of goodies. Job done. You have "won". You didn't get a kill or an achievement but you still won.

There is no instant gratification here, but it can still be fun. Maybe just not the fun you are looking for.

^ story or it didn't happen. Lol
Sounds like you are not playing the game right which i understand because i've been there. Like people already said you have to join with other like minded people to have fun in this game. Once you learn, it is really fun and relaxing.

It should and it is.

If you feel threatened, burdened, down or anything else, when you get scammed, ganked, caught on a gate, that's on you.

Those things ARE THE GAME. Lighten up, ask people how to deal with those things, surround yourself with people who know how to deal with them, learn and then outplay.

I understand people who don't like EvE.
Not all of us like the same type games.
Not all of us like to drink same beer.
Not all like same type of women.

But what makes some of them to come here and whine before they leave....Question

What does it say that people feel the need to persecute players even at the point they are walking out the door?

Good luck, have fun.

I believe it has something to do with subscription model.

People feel that they have "lost money", even if they have payed their game by grinding isk and PLEXing, and not only time (losing time is acceptable for most as you have had SOMETHING out from it, otherwise you would not have done that).

I have not seen this kind of outbursts in this magnitude at ED or SC forums (not subscription based space games, closest I can compare to).

Your corp history shows that you have put in zero effort to find like minded people, as you put it. Who's fault is that, yours or the game's?

You did a thread in January Is EVE to complicated and time consuming for me? and there was some good advice given to you by other players.
So what did you do, regarding those advices? Obvioulsy nothing.
