Thank you all your information has been most helpful also the corp has neglected to follow up on any questions I had so they are out. To answer some of yours I have a main but only with 20.5Mil SP So I have been inactive for most of the time span. I went Caldarie Cause missiles hit me for the most dmg when I first started and when going in lowsec seemed everyone wanted to team with the hardest hitters so I soloed and died.

I did get in some blobs with the militia and went back to highsec when funds ran short which was quick.

Also I should not that home life did not afford me to be online 10 hours a day like some players and a lot of the 20.5m was due to EvEs skill system not requiring me to actually play to progress.

This has been an issue as everyone seems to check when dealing with me and notices I should be the EvE subject matter expert. I get accused of being a spy a lot. However without at least a few pilots to fly with it seems I am stuck in high and as long as I am stuck in high it seems no one wants to attempt to fly with me. Think I will spend 1-2 more days so I can get a Navy Scorp which I have all skills for and hear is a killer PvE boat by that time I can fly T2 Minimtar frigs (I already can Caldarie) and than will volunteer services as a tackler.

I am in the military and deployed now so I am finding myself with 4-5 hours a night (also my time zone different as I am overseas) I am trying to get into EvE as a whole I have a seconded account that I am focusing on industry and my main is going on combat skills.

A lot of what was said I had assumed I am no stranger to MMORPG's as a whole. I guess I might be best served in a highsec corp that does PvP so I can learn what is what. I will just go into it with the mind set most labor union members have. That being if they can increase my ISK 3-4x through incursions and the like it really doesn't matter if a CEO takes 10% for him/herself I am still better off than alone. (Also I am in my own corp now which is just me but I pay no newbicorp taxes)

Any suggestions?

I unfortunately have no friends, or that is to say friends that are in EvE everyone I know plays WoW or its copy cat clone MMO's that have followed.

Once again thank you, you have went above a beyond what I was expecting in a reply especially for a stranger you don't know.

Yes I have notice this as well. Everyone wants new "easy" kills to move into lowsec but don't seem to realize it's their actions that make it to difficult , unprofitable, and just a waste of time on the part of the Highsec "carebears" I have found a rather large (or small) area in Null that seems vacant minus a few jumping here and their I will be setting up PI in Them planets be nothing but white lined (the color showing the highest concetration of materials) WIll scout ahead of course when moving industrials in and out.

Pretty much what Lyris said. Alliances/corps that put earnings straight towards better infrastructure and logistics for the common member are the only corps worth joining. Sure mittens never needs to rat, but free stuff for newbros, fully stocked jump bridges at all times and great fun (because no need to scrounge up some isk for your next alphafleet ship/hurricane) vastly outweighs that.

Great read Lyris!

Salah: Try to find a small corp that is interested in PVP, maybe just starting out, and learn the game with them. For that it is crucial that they are active and in your timezone. And if they suck - so what. Try the next corp.
I'd rather invest that ISK for the Navy Scorp in some PVP ships. I hear Battlecruisers are very nice for lowsec ;-)

This way you can also check out which leadership is really interested in their members and not just milking them. I personally am not into joining huge organisations like TEST or Goons, but that's a matter of taste. There are also smaller entities with reimbursement on smaller scale, down to the fleet itself handling it after the action.

And keep doing that lowsec PI. It is easy passive income and should keep you in PVP ships without the need for ratting.

Thanks for the tips and that is now what I am trying to do. I did get a Navy Scorp though and do not regret it. I was using a ROHK and the speed which I finish missions has greatly improved from taking 3-4+ hours sometimes on the missions you have 6 hours to do to only around 1 hour. I have reversed from trying to get lower timed missions so I can get them done to the longer timed ones so I gat get more isk per run. This is going to do well in supporting my PvP ambitions.

Thank you all for your help I will save my other questions for other post as this is a C&P thread on the trust worthyness of Nightmare Factory.

At this point I can't tell if you're a shobon newbie or a masterful troll; regardless, would you like to join GoonWaffe?
