I'm right behind you...

I'd like to apologize for the poor quality of the post above and sincerely hope you didn't waste your time reading it. Yes, I do feel bad about it.

Agreed. Every new player should know about Sol's cleavage.

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

You are such a lovely looking girl,
you really shouldn't hide yourself behind these goggles. :)

I don't know such law,
but I can assure you that reality is all about observation, perception, interpretation and interaction. :)

Hi! *kinks* (:
I am Sol! :)

Let me tell you that, if you are boring yourself in this game,
you either have the exciting real life of an accountant
or you simply haven't grasped it yet.

Nono, not the game ... Life itself!

This game is more real than any other game. It's a reality.
It works. There are people. People ARE life!
People create the very reality we all live in!
That includes YOU, but you haven't realised it yet!


Have you heard about "outside" ? It's where you go to interact/talk with people.
That's exactly how it works in game. You go out there to find peope to interact with!

Life is exciting!

When you go in a bar you might start talking with people you don't know.
Tell you what ... in EVE, every system is a bar!

You can start talking to girls like me in hope they start liking you and talk more with you.
You can start talking to guys and hope to find friends to do stuff together with!
You can start barfights. You can try to steal stuff of some random idiot sitting at the bar,
leaving his wallet next to him .. that would be equal to stealing loot from mission runners or jetcan miners.

You can steal the wallet of a guy and hope HE starts ths fight
so you can kick his ass without the police making you responsible for it!

You can take a visit to the lowsec ghetto,
trying to kill random people who walk through the streets,
try to do business work aka mission running,
or try to kill them!

Life is dangerous!!

You can prostitute yourself if you are at least half decent at talking!
Most people aren't, although they believe otherwise,
but that's okay because practise makes perfect!

You can do good to people too!
You don't need to do bad things to enjoy existing,
but unlike reallife, THIS reality ALLOWS YOU TO!

You can start running a bank, promise people 5% a week
and they will start coming and handing you their money!
Look up what a ponzi scheme is for that.
People will fall for it. Phaser Inc did it and went off with a trillion ISK!

We had a player that brilliantly started a legit isk doubling service!
She had billions and promised people to double the amounts they sent three times!
The catch was that people had to stick strictly to the rules else she would keep the money!

I can assure that she was 100% legit and simply made huge amounts of money
from greedy idiots who only saw ISKISKISK! ALWAYS BET ON GREED AND STUPID!!

Life is about learning from mistakes and letting others learn from them!


There's this wormhole lady who has half a dozen alts. She roleplays her own family!
She is known throughout the whole freaking EVE cluster, because she is HOT HOT HOT
and people dig HOT HOT HOT sososo much!

There's a roleplayer playing a fanatic caldari officer! THE FEDERATION MUST BE DESTROYED!

This person is completely nuts when in character, but one of the most loveliest
persons I have met in this whole game! She IS content in her roleplaying forum!
Her sole presence creates content and even when she isn't around her name can be found,
because she simply is an ICON in her very own way!

Life is about everyone!!

I know the person who literally OWNS AND CONTROLS THE WHOLE MARKET OF HEAVY WATER!
If she sold to ALL buyorders throughout ALL the systems she would STILL have more
than everyone combined and then some!

That's ECONOMIC MIGHT beyond your imagination, influencing THOUSANDS if she wants to!

There are people ganking freighters in groups! There are entertainers who keep
their home systems busy all by themselves!

People who come up with stuff suddenly HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE USE,
because it's brilliant and no one did it before!

People who have the goal to annoy CCP themselves with their existence,
just to have a tiny tiny bit of influence that affects HUNDREDS OF OTHERS!

People who buy, sell, mine, trade, scam,
steal, kill, prostitute themselves, people who start their own freaking CULTS!


And then there is YOU who is BORING HIMSELF and has NO CLUE what's going on!!
You ask for what to do! Hints! Ways to find enjoyment in life!



You just didn't get it YET!!


Go out there! Talk to people! Find friends, enemies, a wife/man/sexpartner/slave/dominatrix

IT DOES NOT MATTER AT ALL WHAT IT IS
AS LONG AS YOU UNDERSTAND
THAT YOUR REALITY GETS DEFINED BY NOT ONLY YOU
BUT ALSO BY LITERALLY EVERYONE AROUND YOU *TOO* !


In EVE ONLINE, as much as in your real life,
YOU choose your own path!

But it's not about what you think you want to do,
not about what interests you,
not about doing what you can do!

NO!

NO!!!!

It's about NOT GIVING A ****!! TRYING WHATEVER PUSHES YOUR LIMITS!!
IF YOU FAIL YOU JUST TRY AGAIN! AND AGAIN! AND AGAIN!!

It's about what you COULD BECOME and not about what you already ARE!
Feel, laugh, cry, rage, but do it with every around you!!


LIFE IS YOU!


DEFINE YOUR EXISTENCE!


CREATE REALITY AS YOU WISH!


YOU CAN DO IT!!



WELCOME ... to LIFE!
WELCOME ... TO EVE ONLINE!!



*drops mic, exhausted*


*kinks*


*walks off*



I think it was a bit too long.......



My only problem with this : *I* DIDN'T GET A MENTION ?! *shakes head in disappointment*

Thank you for your posts! :)
Haha Nami I couldn't possibly fit all the people into it,
I would need half a dozen posts for only the better known ones.

You're the first to quote it, not sure why tbh. ^_^

There will be a followup thread to this later today...

Wait what, there are no NPCs with variously colored question marks and exclamation marks over their heads that guide me through Eve and life itself?

I won't know what to do if no one tells me!

Someone, quick, give me a goal to achieve!

I don't judge people by their race, religion, color, size, age, gender, or ethnicity. I judge them by their grammar, spelling, syntax, punctuation, clarity of expression, and logical consistency.
