Hello and hello everyone.

I hope that you are all having a lovely day.

I was minding my own business a few days ago when I heard the flutter of a tiny electronic postman, dragging his heavy bag of mail down my internet pipe and onto my computer. Amongst the many offers for a "Larger tool" was something that caught my eye, an invitation for free samples of tea.

After I had ordered my tea samples I then noticed an email from CCP telling me all about the many wonderful and varied new additions to the game which I played for so long, with a tiny message scrawled on the bottom stating "P.S. we alwys luv'd u plz com bk xxx". How could anyone with a heart deny such a moving request?

I donned my spending hat and quickly ran over to the accounts website, where I spent a good while careening through various html chicanes before finally renewing my account which allowed me access to this wonderful forum (Apparently some sort of game is available too).

It has been quite some time since I was last here and things have changed as quickly as a new council estate being built, It seems to be for the better though, removing all that asbestos and using new sci-fi materials like MDF have certainly made the place prettier.

I am unsure about one feature though, this "Likes received" meter seems particularly chilling to me, just how does CCP know I have no friends? Are we being followed? Is a database being compiled?
The zero sits there, glaring at me like a disgruntled Cyclops, unhappy with the amount of sweetener in his morning coffee and I am the forgetful waitress who messed up his order.

He will not leave a tip.

In closing I would just like to say that I am very happy to be back in the warm and mostly familiar confines of EVE and am looking forward to flying with friends both old and new.

Fly safe my friends.

Welcome back! It's always nice to see old names reappear..

Did you ever do anything with all those noob ships you were after a few years ago by the way?

I placed them in storage for the inevitable day when they will be needed, alongside my collection of Burst class frigates.

It was a titanic effort to collect over twenty thousand ships from all over the map into one location but one that I feel was worthwhile. It'll pay off one day.

I had a look at this thread you directed me towards, it seems like a strange and terrible place. I think I will avoid it until I have had my inoculations.

As I remember you too, It really has been quite a while.
It is good to be back, I hope that I am able to stay for another eight years.

I hope I can find something to do in this game and the time to do it. XD


We should totally have a nostaligia thread for people who were around 2006-2008ish to post in.
