EVE General Discussion

In game, not much ... maybe receiving ships and implants form an older player when I was starting to play years ago. I continued to do the same for other new players later.

Out of the game... well... this is not "that" kind of forum.

I flew my brand new Raven into 0.0 in Providence, because I heard they were nice around there and didn't just shoot you instantly. Being a newbie with basically no support skills to fit it, this thing was fit horribly. 2 rapid light missile launchers, 3 torpedo launchers, and 3 200mm railguns. I at least didn't dual tank it, but I had a small shield repper and no resist modules fitted, just extenders. The lows had two overdrive injector systems... tech 2 ones because I had just trained enough to fit them. There were unused slots all over the place.

My second or third gate into 0.0, I got caught in a gatecamp by the Agony Unleashed guys, and my pride and joy, the brand new Raven was lost. I was promptly podded so I logged out and cried myself to sleep that night (not really but I was pretty bummed about it).

I logged in the next day to find I had 200 million isk (where I previously had around 10m) and had an Evemail waiting. One of the guys who killed me had given me the isk and wrote me a really nice mail saying that he knew what it was like to lose a brand new battleship and directed me to some guides on ship fitting. At that point I knew for sure I was going to love playing Eve because of the community, and aside from a little break last year, I've kept up playing Eve since that day.

Gave me a set of Arbalest missile launchers to put on my new Caracal.

Only that my best friend in EVE gave me his stuff, his char, and even stole 15bil worth of things from his friends and corp for me when he quit.

I randomly donate isk to brand new players that catch my eye in local. Sometimes it's a million here or there to help them on their way.

Most don't notice it.

Not to my but one of my legionaries needed an orca so he asked in jita and holy hell he was given full fitted...I thought that was pretty awesome

I like to loan to my trusted peeps so they can start large scale ventures in eve...I lose out but its good to see those who suceeds

Unfortunitly an ipad auto corrects everything, and ends up mesging things up mos of the time.

Im waiting for the ninceness to come my way, and it will, because by and large the EVE community is made up of a bunch of nice people, even those that blow you up.

I had a Neo-Spartan blow up my ****fit mining Thrasher in Otou, pin my pod, and refused to let me go until she'd answered every noob question I could think of. Then she gave me 10mil and let me fly back to Hek to do it right.

I'll never forget it!

EVE players are great!

When I was quite new to Eve some advice on what mining ship to get to make more isk than from the ship I was currently using, apart from that nothing.

Where all this supposed good nature of other Eve players comes from is a mystery to me as apart from that advice all I have ever got in the game was being ignored and unwarranted hostility resulting in me losing a ship and pod.
