I have absolutely no desire to go into or live in 0.0 SOV space. Being a slave/serf to a large powerblock holds no interest to me. Now with no goal to work towards my last account will go inactive today.


so you're closing your accounts based on the rumors started by some idiots?


can i have your stuff?



hey Zulu - i've always wanted someone who's quitting to give me all their stuff :P

Tedium and difficulty are not the same thing, if you don't realize this then STFU about game design.

But never got around to try?

Have you always wanted to run Cosmos dungeons but never found one? Wanted to mine but didn't know where to start? Take part in a live event but couldn't find one?

Discuss.


I want to mine in low-sec.
I want to have a POS so I can research BPO's, but apparently CCP is looking to make that near impossible for small corps.
I want to live for a bit in WH space.
I want to PvP and not feel like a knife in a grenade fight. This one is a difficult one for me. I only know PvE fits, and while I understand *some* PvP fits, most of what I know has to do with tackling which is pretty much useless solo. The biggest issue for me in regards to just "going for it" is pod loss. I don't have the standings to get jump clones yet.
I'd like to see the Monolith.
I want to take part in a swarm of newbie ships and attempt to take down larger and larger targets, just to see how big of a kill we can get.
I want to eat a huge portion of Broccoli and then warp into the Goons primary system and leave them a gas cloud to harvest

Most of what I want to do I haven't tried yet due to lack of clones, and lack of sec status to lose freely.
The last is just because I can't vent methane out of my pod.




1. So mine in lowsec. Just go in a crap T1 fit frig. Sure you won't get a lot, but it's a start.
2. Small tower is easily fuel-able for a small corporation. New fuel type (the blocks) will probably make things better.
3. Scan wormhole, enter, live there.
4. Estel Arador's jump clone service (that corp is still around, no?)
5. Go for it.
6. go for it.
7. um... right

One of the bitter points of a good bittervet is the realisation that all those SP don't really do much, and that the newbie is having much more fun with what little he has. - Tippia

The two biggest issues.

Believe it or not, I have found that one of the largest barriers to entry to many aspects of Eve is simply the lack of knowledge of how-to, or where-to.

I had hoped that one of the things that establishments could do is tackle this problem. There is a wealth of information from 3rd parties on the net, but so much of it is way out of date at this point.

Need a better mechanism (something akin to the agent finder; that worked really well) that could function as a road map to New Eden.

Got a flight now, so I'll be back laters.


evelopedia is shaping up to fill that role

A lot of us do. You just don't know who we are.


But that's just it. Mingle.


they're not allowed to reveal their non CCP Accounts, if they do so those accounts have to be terminated.

I've tried most of what EVEhas to offer PVE and PVP wise, trading, production, highsec, lowsec, nullsec, wormholes. But there are still things I would LIKE to try.

- I would LIKE to construct my own home in a hollow asteriod i scan down in deep space

- I would like to build a POS that is actually a starbase and not a bubble with some junk scattered around

- I would LIKE to do PVE in a PVP fit ship, because there is really no difference in fittings between PVE and PVP.

- I would LIKE to scan down signatures in space leading me to experiences I cannot find documented anywhere. I.e unique. I would LIKE to affect the progession of the story of EVE finding such adventures

- I would LIKE to be able affect the trusec of a system truogh my actions

- I would LIKE to change the sov map of the empires in factional warfare

- I would LIKE to fight 10.000 ship battles in nullsec spanning entire constellations, and where different fleets actions affect the whole insted of ONE FC w/Blob shooting another FC w/Blob. This means brand new command and control interfaces and a total rethink of the current command and control model for fleetfights.

Mostly I want to fly Cap ships but then i think about all the headaches and pain in the butt nonsense that is null and the idiots in low. I realize that I don't want to deal with that crap so I continue to train sub cap skills to max.

personally I would love if CCP brought these into EVE
Escort Carriers
5 fighters, can run around highsec like the Orca. That I would train for.


Yes, this

Always wanted to try and do a nomadic lifestyle I.E live in 1 region (0.0) for a week or so then move on.

I could not figure out a good way to do this. with current ships in the game.
My first idea was to use a blackop/transport combo to move around easy but i would need third or fourth acount to make the cyno's work.

Got about 6months into it and realised there were other things to spend my time on. Still have most of the stories and content, maybe one day when Eve is worth spending that much time on I'll finish it.





Eve is now worth wasting all my precious time on.
I LOVE THE NEW CCP
