Intergalactic Summit

FUN. I need to have some. All work and no play something something something. I'm only 22 and been in the pod barely a month and yet I already feel like I'm frittering away the best years of my life in customer service and watching little bars go from the left to the right. Work/life balance, you know.

So, once again I defer to the superior wisdom of the IGS (can't believe I just wrote that but anyway moving on) and ask the following questions:

1. I bought a small hauler's worth of booze but drinking by myself is dullsville and I don't want to drink with my crew because I don't want to get all buddy-buddy with the employees, it's not right. So where are the good bars.

2. I've heard slave fights are hilarious fun times. I want some of that action. Where are the best ones held.

3. Is it worth going to Amamake even though it's a dirty heathen filth system I'm told they do raves or something.

Ok go. Any other advice also welcome. And no "hey baby you just need to meet me I'll show you a good time" stuff from you guys (or girls), you creep me out and you're not getting any so shut up.

Send me a link to your program when you do it again. I'm sure it's ridiculous but it might kill time and relax my eyes between watching bars go around in a circle on my HUD while other bars go left to right.

Refined sounds okay, I'm probably more of a snob than them anyway so it's cool, I can deal with it. Hedonistic venues, no. Just no.

I can't believe I got a reasonably useful and practical reply almost straight away. Not sure whether to feel happy or let down. Some moron comments something stupid to redress the balance in 3...2...1...

I don't do tans, or the outdoors in general. While as a general rule I think it's a good thing that surfaces of planets still exist, I don't really enjoy my time on them unless I'm inside a building with some form of climate-control.

Also I've heard that beach is quite popular amongst capsuleers and I really don't want to run into any of you people, especially not on a beach.

I guess if you return there it must be good, right?

Why are all these places in Gallente space though.

Don't be daft. That's the Minmatar way to get in, that'd be going the long way for me. It'd make sense if I was coming from Rens, but who goes to Rens.

Is there really any nightlife in Eszur though.

Don't worry I've got the "really bad at my job" thing already cornered.

I wish Amarr space was a bit more happening. Just because I'm religious and all doesn't mean that I want to have no fun, ever.

There used to be a number of active 'hotspots' within the Empire, though to my knowledge most are either closed or no longer quite as active.

Mercy's Keep in particular was very popular for a few years while the Knighthood of the Merciful Crown (KotMC) was active, and there were a number of events held there, including a masquerade ball and a winter holiday party. Since KotMC has all but disbanded, however, I believe the doors have been shut.

There are a number of other establishments around the cluster that are popular capsuleer hangouts, but most are not in the Empire, and several of the most popular ones are in nullsec, like the Last Gate (Venal) and I-RED Lounge (Syndicate). So if you don't mind getting a ride through Interbus or flying out there yourself into nullsec, then those are both good.

I can't say much about it yet, but TYRIN also has had some plans in the works for a while now, and there may be some new options opening up in the near future.

Come on, we all know how sleazy capsuleers can get. Think I want to meet any of you for the first time in my bathing suit I DON'T THINK SO
