So, I'm one of those annoying players who never unsubs, because we've trained our characters for 10 years now and don't want to lose out. But I never play.

So I've logged back in, and tootle about a bit, and I can already feel that I'm slipping back into the constant 'semi afk' absent minded ratting while surfing / playing other games etc.

I know I love this game, I just need to get back 'into' it again. So what are your top tips? There's more to life than hitting Sanctums, I know, and my first step will be to hook up with PVP again. Apart from that though, what's the most fun (with a smidge of good profits thrown in)?

Exploration for 'off the radar' sites is probably my other next step.

What would you suggest I do to get the 'care' factor back?

TIA

What you need is something to believe in. Help make Eve a better game. www.minerbumping.com has the answers you seek.

See Bio for isk doubling rules. If you didn't read bio, chances are you funded those who did.

Are either of those more fun than cracking one off while ratting?

I personally keep it fresh by using force recon and other fun stealth ships running around null hacking, ratting, and pvp'ing. Always encounter new stuff. And when rubicon hits that playstyle will only get better.

A lot of our player return when big badasses decide to attack us, for we decide to attack people.

For example, suppose progodlegend declares vfk by december. We will see a lot of resubs.

Speaking of, aren't you guys still recruiting? Maybe joining Goons would give him the excitement he needs.

We're always recruiting.

There was a newbie just today that was learning about salvaging. Sadly, some badguys came through and we had to dock/pos or something. Blue donut, you know
