Ok so I've been playing for around 7 years and have tried most forms of pvp and pve . I have been on hiatus for around 8 months now and have lost my interest in a lot of eve.

What my question is , basically what can I do to freshen my love for eve ?

I have a lot of ships and a lot of isk by most standards .
I have 2 100m+ sp chars and a couple of 20m sp chars . So basically I don't need more chars and I don't need isk.
Between my chars I can fly almost anything in game . So what's left for me?

I've been in some of the most elite alliances/corps in eve and even excelled in them at times (I'm by no means an awesome pilot , but competent) .

I'd like to maybe help newer players learn pvp perhaps or maybe start some sort of corp to teach people pvp basics for free.

Anyway if anybody has any suggestion about what a I could do to enjoy this game again . Please reply.

I'm not leaving the game anytime soon (for ever anyway) So don't bother with the can I haz your stuff replys. lol

The first thing you might try is finding a good plastic surgeon in New Eden who can fix that botched cheekbone and eyebrow implant job.


Yeesh.

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

It seems you already know what you want to do and just need some direction. I've never been a part of Brave Newbies, but have heard some of the background story for how it got off the ground. The CEO wanted to provide an experience for new players that would allow them to enjoy the game from the beginning and take part in it's signature feature - pvp.

Somehow, it took off big. You might contact some of the people running that organization and see what advice they could give you.

props to UAE. Yet another quality troll with good humor to make one smile in the morning.

Admirable but how long have you been gone?
if its longer than two years you should reorient yourself as a lot has changed.

If you feel warm and fuzzy inside when you help a newbie do something cool, definitely do that. Even if it's just hanging out in a channel frequented by newbies, encouragement helps. Especially after the 'This is EVE' trailer getting in a bunch of new players.

But yeah, fix the face. Newbies might think you're a raid boss or something P.

Join BNI and become a financial backer.

That way you will be

a) helping Newbros
b) getting involved in shaking up the political landscape.

You may even decide to bring some heavy firepower to their case...


You could also become a sustaining member of EvE University.

I love that so much I tried to have a bedsheet made of it. The wife vetoed that idea.

8 month? lol i was away for 4 years. Took about a week or two to get back into the game with the recent changes.

Best thing to do is find a corp/alliance and get right back into things!

Been around since the beginning.

Some pretty ugly people telling you they don't like your face, huh? Yeah, well.
That's our community, a lot of pots calling kettles "black."
Now, I'm cute. Fix your face.

Just like life, this game is pretty boring if you have all the money in the world. You need something to work for, something to push your limits, that will make you go on instead of saying 'I quit'. The thing you need, sir, is an ISK sink. I for one am open for donations starting at 100m. Anything below that is considered journal-pollution.

Is my face bad?? I always worry about my virtual cheekbones, and no that isn't sarcasm. I need to know if I actually need a re sculpt or not.

Oh, I perfectly understand, Hal Morsh — a mission like this requires courage, skill, and heroism… qualities you are clearly lacking. Have you forgotten you're one of the bloody immortals!?

Everything in EVE is a trap.

And if it isn't, it's your job to make it a trap...:)
