So, idk, it just feels... weird... this isn't a rant, but I just feels like EVE gets lonely sometimes. Anyone else get this?


Get some implants to get rid of that empty feeling.

This is not a signature.

My alt disliked me so much since I only used him for a scout that he stopped playing the game. Now I'm all alone...

But really though. Join an active corp, join some chat channels. This game is immensly more fun with other people, even if you're all just chatting on Teamspeak

I also have empty feelings when I watch the women's beach volleyball. You can't lose what you never had Sad

On an unrelated note, putting banknotes in an athlete’s waistband will get you thrown out of the stadium.

This white hair/'Function' shirt combination
with that background really looks nice.

Your face, the hair, the clothes, the lighting and the background create a great portrait
and the pose suits it perfectly. I really like it.

Very well done!


Maybe a white 'Function' dress for showing off? ;)

Don't be silly, definitely the Australian team.

Sheesh, Sweden doesn't even HAVE beaches.

Before I joined Lords I had to boot my alt from my corp for embezzling isk for strippers and beer. I wouldn't have been so mad if he had just invited me along with him.

To OP. I mined for years. I wish I hadn't. I played solo for years. I wish I hadn't. ISK are nice and all, but fun is the real currency of the game, and to be honest there is a glass ceiling on how much fun you can have playing alone. To really unlock the good fun you will have to play with others. Given the nature of the community you will have to do some sifting through myriad misfits, miscreants and nogoodniks in order to find the exact others that will make your game experience the most fulfilling, but the end result is worth it.

Get out there and meet people, talk to them, shoot at them, get shot at by them, interact. You'll find the game much more rewarding that way. And for the love of all that is unholy, seriously consider laying off the mining... it is a necessary evil, but too much is bad for the soul.

Come hell or high water, this sick world will know I was here.

Uh couldn't you talk to people or something? We still have local, you know. Or send EVE-mails and convos to random people. Or just start shooting random people.

I promise you, you won't feel alone anymore. Pirate

I don't know what kinda drugs you have to be on to enjoy mining, mostly cuz I've never actually done any. I did pass a drug test just recently actually, which is strange cuz I don't remember eating one...

Go to shop buy alcohol.

Go back to mining.

Go back to shop buy more alcohol.

Go back to mining, rant at the asteroids, other miners, mouse, keyboard etc..

Crawl back to shop, try to chat up the first person you fancy

Go back to mining, pass out and repeat the next day.

or with the remote possibility you chat someone up.

Buy alcohol for the 2 of you.

Do not use contraceptives.

Sell your computer to buy a pram.

After 20 years of the same person moaning at you the thought of spending all day every day quietly mining will seem like paradise, enjoy it while you can.

Its not that the Dev's have never been hi-sec miners, more that if they ever admitted it they'd be designing new pattern's in the dust as they sweep the car park. Would you employ someone who spends all day mining in hi?

The best ones.

But yeah no one enjoys mining. It's something you do while making dinner, taking a crap, or arguing on EVE forums.

Lies. Only BAD drugs make mining fun. The best drugs can accomplish when it comes to mining is to silence the voices of the asteroids telling you to kill your fellow miners to save them from this living hell.... and those only work for so long.
