/r/EVE needs more AMA from EVE developers. Something similar to "Devs ignore answer your every question" but less formal Roll

You need to get out into the community more Cool

Joking aside, the EVE subreddit is a pretty chill place to hang out and there is usually something very interesting to read there.

If you're the kind of person that can't handle occasionally losing, then we're a pretty awful community.


I am OK with this.

/r/eve is probably my least favourite part of Reddit. Too many people trying too hard to be cool. Generally find the rest of Reddit to be friendlier and more mature. YMMV

Lots of people,

Massively, IGN, Eurogamer, RockPaperShotgun, the BBC.

Just google Eve online news and you get a lot of non-eve sites talking about it in various guises.

Yes I frequent Reddit too but it's not the be all and end all or the center of the internet, no matter how much some claim it is.


Implying gaming journalism is worth the effort reading anymore.


There is that, the BBC and CNN bits made it to the front page of the tech sections though, so, not just gaming journalism.

My point is more that even if you didn't read these sites beyond a skim, you'd probably see spaceships and words that make you think about looking into it more.

/r/Eve is awesome purely because trolls get downvoted quickly.

Isn't Reddit that site that constantly has problems with... well, lets be generous and call it "jailbait" material. Definitely not a site I'd want to be associated with.

Redditors think they run the internet. After you spend long enough listening to them screaming about how an article was first linked on Reddit so no one else is allowed to link to it you learn to tune them out.
