For a new player, this may not be the easiest way to earn money because you will need some skill books, skill training and practice to find things, but it's surely more entertaining than mining.

Would you say i should do that instead of mining seeing i dont play more then maybe 2-3 hours a day? And i want to have some fun and maybe adventures! Hehe


Doing anything other than mining for 2 or 3 hours a day is good for your sanity, and your wallet.

It's a shocker, someone who RMT'd admitting that they did it, and not blaming anyone but themselves. Just for having the guts to admit he ballsed up means he'll get decent advice on how to dig himself out of the hole.

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

RMT = Real Money Trading

Buying or selling ISK for cash outside of the legitimate channels that CCP have already set up, basically black market ISK.

what ya could do is...

make a new alt on your account. ( for the below )
buy 6 game time cards sell them or convert to plex and sell.. you should have about 6b isk..

goto the character bazaar and buy a starter character you like for arounf 4-6b isk.

start over and NEVER buy isk from isk farmers again.

I would make a new toon, fly to the stations where you have any stuff on your old toon and trade it over while in station.

You can't sell anything because you can't cover the fees so you pretty much have to grind out or get another account to forward you the money. For me it was just a couple million isk, but the numbers this guy needs to dig out of could be a pain in the assets.


And yet, margin trading scams are able to proceed. Far be it for me to condemn them, men should be free to do whatever, but in a situation where a player goes negative, there needs to be a method to efficiently bring oneself back into the black. Preventing one from selling his belongings to do so due to fees is quite an oversight when compared to my original example.

If you're using the trade window there are no fees, it's a private trade between 2 characters. You'll need 2 accounts to do it with though, both characters have to be logged in.

Well, we're have been all helpful here, but I wouldn't advise trading your things to some random stranger. This is EVE, where people get scammed left and right. So if there is anything in your hangar that you want to keep, make sure you trade it to trustworthy people only.
