Hi All,

Tried out the trial a couple of times in the past but never got anywhere, given my self three months of stroking the eve £$% this time so should hopefully get somewhere!

So this is just a quick hello happy christmass enjoy your honika and have a crackin new year to all you eve'ers whom i hope to be feasting my frickin laser beams into in the future......... Although albeit for a short time prior to my demise!

Gonna try the sisters of eve shindig wile i get to grips with more of the features in eve but then after that i'll be looking to try my luck in the big bad world of spank my nullsec and call me charlie, any idea's for good newbie trainer corps would be good, will probably want to do a bit of pvp'ing and cloak spying in areas not meant for me!!!

All idea's slaps in the face and congratulations for spunking money up the walls are welcome!!!

I hear TEST are recruiting.

Without operations like mine it would be impossible for certain Alliances to conduct a respectable war. There are three basic types of arms deal: white, being legal, black, being illegal, and my personal favorite, gray.

TEST is lame, contact a goonswarm recruiter and pay him the application fee, then contract all your stuff to their transport logistics division for quick and easy relocation to the home systems.

Both TEST and Goons are actually very newbie friendly.
Usually both respect newbies and would not pull a recruitment scam on a player who is only several weeks old, but it never hurts to be a little paranoid in EVE, even if you are a newbie.

I'd like to apologize for the poor quality of the post above and sincerely hope you didn't waste your time reading it. Yes, I do feel bad about it.

I think it wouldn't hurt to run the tutorials first and the then the Sisters Arc, but the Arc is not really required.
Just be aware that a lot of terribad recruiters will be camping the final systems of the Sisters Arc and convo newbies to get them into their highsec mining corps.
Don't let them make you their mindless mining drone.

The same applies to EVE.
We are usually friendly and helpful to newbies simply because they haven't got anything worth stealing yet.

My wife started playing about a month after me. I let her in my corp and gave her full access to the corp hangers. Login the next day to find everything gone and evemail saying she joined the goons. Trust no one.

Do not assume anything above this line was typed by me. Nerf the Truth, it's inconvenient.

I like that attitude.
For future reference, TEST is pretty good at wasting money and ships and getting blown out of the sky.
