Big hello all.

Technically I gave Eve a go a year ago for a month, intended to renew a sub but never ended up doing that until now. So I'm pretty much just entirely green again but intend to stay around this time. Already started to play around a bit with the militia and Rping and excited to meet more Eve players out there.

It seems odd saying welcome back when I only got back yesterday myself.

But anyway...


Welcome back!

In a week or so you are going to get this feeling that everyone is out to get you for no discernible reason...

Trust that feeling.

EVE is the game where paranoid neurotics can enjoy that warm, cozy feeling that everything is as it should be.

Welcome back to EVE! It's nice to see that you are getting straight back in to the pew pew, so good luck and have fun. Cool

Welcome back, now go out there and break chunks of space pixels into smaller pieces. Word of advice: Blow them up *before* you try to salvage the minmatar ships, they get grumpy about the implied slight towards their build quality otherwise.

Thanks for the welcome guys and LOL so true. The constant stream of scams in the chat screen was either not there or not nearly as strong a presence as last I remember hahaha.

Welcome aboard, quite literally.

I'm new around here, and I'm always looking for new people to hook up with, so send me a message in-game if you like!

Pickles!

Honestly I always gawked when people said Jita Local was only full of Scammers. If you look at the money offer / have to pay and verify every item in the contract is the real deal complete with price check and location check you never have to worry about getting scammed. After you filter through the scams all that is left is people trying to sell you stuff.

Most of the people who try to advertise real items in Jita Local do it because they need money now. So there goods are often slightly below the cost average of the rest of the herd.

So flipping through you find lots of goodies you forgot existed or pre rigged / fitted ships cheap. Next thing you know your finding fun new ways to use these items. Sure like all shopping spree's you have to worry about loading up on less then useful impulse items but if your a good shopper you can walk away with a new idea and a toy to go with it at below market cost...

God I love this game.

Welcome back, clone vat is to your left, clone upgrades to the right...

On your way out please read and understand The Signature posted below.

Welcome to Eve. Everyone here is an Evil Sick Sadistic Bastard who is out to get you. Anyone who tells you otherwise is either trying to scam you or use you.
