I null running around in a thorax. That would have been January 2004 in Fountain somewhere. The fun of making warp to 0 bookmarks.

At six months, I was part of Everlasting Vendetta, fighting BoB in Deklein and Pure Blind at the tail end of the Great Northern War.

As far as six months from now, I've got no clue. The other night was the first time I've done more than just spin ships or run an occasional mission in almost a year, and even then all I did was hop into an Incursion fleet. I'm hoping my interest in the game will be rekindled, despite the fact that the devs keep nerfing the few ships and playstyles I still like. We'll see.

Ideally, if I start playing regularly again, I'd like to start making some PvP videos. I know everyone and their dog is making them or streaming these days, but it'd be a great record I can look back to in future years and say, "Damn, that was fun." I may even create my own soundtracks.

It took me just shy of 4 months to try out almost every form of pve eve has to offer. I hated them all. I then did a short stint in RvB to get my feet wet before finding a PvP corp and was in Syndicate by the 6th month. We moved into wormhole from there and thento low sec, back into a wh. 6 months from now I hope to have fixed my sec stat (I'm always thinking about doing that, but never actually giving it any effort) and picking on people in hifh sec... maybe... probably just losing more ships and more sec in low... perhaps FW...

I have been playing EVE now for 7 months, so thankfully I don't have to remember to far back.

Currently me and my corp mates are enjoying fighting other pilots and corps, one day we may actually win Big smile

After the first 3 months I realised that everything a RL friend had been telling my about focusing my skill training was correct and I am now flying Loki and recon ships and looking for the HAC next.

Also after 3 months, I decided that mining is boring and after a quick gank by a new order agent i realised that blasting rocks is not really a good plan in a PVP game. Unless you are ninja mining in lo/null or WH space as at least it keeps your attention so i have stopped mining now and EVE is much more interesting Cool

So i would obviously like to thank the New order for showing me the error of my ways and getting me to go out and fight instead of blasting roids.

My CEO has recently discovered my loathing of mining after trying to get me to mine for the corp wallet. Then being attacked by me in a battle venture Twisted He was expecting it though as he jumped his alt in with his Widow and returned fire... Thank you for the +2 warp strength on the venture CCP Smile

Just moving into a wormhole now and still loving this game although I still suck at PVP.

Over the next 6 months

Experience wormholes with my corp and some other RL friends, who are currently in the same hole, and try not to anger BOB.

R&D agents for my Industrial alt

Also will be looking to joining Brave Newbies with an alt who i am training so i can learn PVP better and have even more good fights

And where do you think you'll be in 6 months now?

6 months into EVE I was completely clueless and was flying with people I had no business flying with. I managed to sweet talk my way into an old, high end PvP corporation called Millennium. It was run by this guy, Zzazzt, who was awesome, but he quit EVE a very long time ago. Some members of that corporation went on to become space famous in organizations like Mercenary Coalition, because Millennium had a reputation for turning out the best PvP pilots in the north. Fighting ATUK hardened people up right quick... especially since we had to do everything...

because Phoenix was busy with important T1 hauler stuff.

Anyway, I sucked. Balls. Big balls. Big, juicy balls. I got Concorded for forgetting we were bouncing between 0.4 and 0.5... I lost a Rifter to a 60 man sniping battleship fleet because I warped all by my lonesome to the wrong gate... and many a Coercer of mine was exploded. But the Millennium guys were very cool and laughed it off and taught me how not to make an ass of myself.

In time, I did stop making an ass of myself, and I wouldn't have been able to do that with without guidance.

6 months from now, I plan to have found a place for myself in a corporation that has all the elements that made some of the classic corps great, namely quality members and leadership, and I want to be excelling in the dedicated Logistics role. If I can do these things, then I will have hit my targets for the next half year.

I was probably unsubscribed, or perhaps subscribed but not playing. Came back a couple months ago, still in a tech 1-fit Harbinger, but with 15 mil SP. I imagine in 6 months I'll be doing incursions and flying with my FW corp.

I'm 6 months in now, and am currently trying to understand fitting enough to make a venture into null for a while.
6 months from now I've got no idea, I'm pretty ADD about this game
