It went, but now it's back.

Trader's Academy - a channel invented by new traders for new traders. It went a little quiet for a while. But the perfect time to breath some life in. Pop by, say hello, tell a joke, ask questions, trust no one (it's eve). Helping use isk to make isk since 2005.

Does it make sense to help the competition? Every trader has his secret to keep an edge.

And a few traders can profit more assuming they can work together as a group and there is enough profits to go around :)

Isn't competition just a friend you haven't met yet?

The channel is more aimed at the beginner wanting to get started in the field (but veterans welcomed!). We've had some successful team efforts in there, and the odd scam (it's eve, trust no one). On the whole works out pretty well for this popping by, no one has to let out their secret. But nice to pass on tips to the new player.

Well that's a blast from the past. Years and years ago when I started playing again (For the second time) I joined trader's academy. (2007-ish)

Unfortunately at the time trader's acedamy was pretty much dying. Jade was I recall getting interested in blockade running into nullsec, some people left to red frog, and as a newbie it was kind of a meh experience. ("yeah, you guys have fun running into null, I'll just stay here trading npc goods after they get reset at downtime"

Anyway that was 4 years ago, interesting to see they are still around.

Oh man, the corp went on a rollercoaster ride of ups and downs since before even that, at one point i think we even had a successful asset location programme based out of wormholes. Things are going back to basics though and have taken over from
Jade's (who's always had issues).

Anyhow, not recruiting for the corp here! Just trying to get the channel up and running again, it's been around longer. We were the baby sister channel of the Trader''s Lounge if anyone remembers that?

In this channel on my alt, great bunch of guys so far. Conversations are generally intelligent enough to make me remeber why people rate the eve player base over other mmo's
