Hey guys, im returning from a long long loonggg time away from Eve, i've been playing other MMO's, which only reminded me of just how unqiue Eve-Online is.

I just thought id say, hello to the new community (as i doubt there's many left from when i quit).

Just a little bit of history about me before i left:

I was in a corp called Rough-Necks, back in 2003-2004 i joined a pirate corp called m0o, and spent the majority of my Eve life there.

After m0o went into, lets call it "permanent" hibernation, i joined RKK (BoB allience) and remained there for a few year until i quit, cant remember exactly when that was.

Looking forward to getting my sub back, logging in and seeing what's become of the Eve i remember, nostalgia is bound to hit in quick :).

Thanks for reading,

Cya in space :).

Welcome back, hope the changes aren't too jarring.

I'd like to say no but when i logged on in a station completely hostile, deep in 0.0 and i was not in my ship but instead on foot in captains quarters? i felt a little like a fish out of water to say the least :).

Ooh, you should take some screenshots of your fittings, I bet they are rather out of date now :)

Also welcome back. I'd say the community is very different these days, for the worse unfortunately. It's a much larger and impersonal playerbase these days.

Good luck settling in though ♥

Welcome Back.
750mil is a lot for a Deimos now. 750 in itself is pocket change though.

I'm a recent returnee as well though I haven't been away for nearly as long as you, but I think it's been about 2 years. I basically had the same feeling when playing some of the other mmo's, that Eve truly had a unique play style that stands out from the rest.

That and I enjoy these forums so much more. Last forum I was on was Rift and their 'OOPE' was pathetic. Only 2 things those people wanted to talk about was SWOTOR and GW2. Try to have any kind of intelligible conversation and all you got was blank stares and a empty thread. Gotta say I may disagree with folks here but at least I get the opportunity to do so.

In game has been a bit different as well. Still trying to get used to the warp to jump with the gates (I keep pushing the jump as I reach the gate and get the in session message). Auto-pilot has auto dock included and your way points include the station as well (big plus). Plus it seems the wait period to change ships is gone. And my scanning has been changed up some so I've been re-learning that when I get a chance.

Oh. You should feel so lucky Miss Thang posted to your thread. As she's the one who ran off all the "personal" playerbase...a grain of salt might be in order.

We must accommodate the idiocracy.

Since you've been out of game for quite a while, you can petition CCP for a free 1 time move of your character and 1 ship with all the cargo loot that ship can hold to safe location.

Welcome back to Eve.

Welcome back. I won't hold the RKK thing against you tho. Mind you that fearless ex leader of yours made a habit of losing the most expensive ship class in the game. That was funny to a point I guess. Not sure what happened to him because I quit the game for a few years too.

Hey, jump in a suicide ship and head to Rens. We got lots of idiots over here you could gank. Its a nice space and I could use the extra tears in local. Low sec is pretty **** nowadays anyway.
