EVE players take special pleasure in "destroying" such players... using methods that would be illegal in other games but are perfectly acceptable here (within "reason").

This is something we like to do, we will kill random innocent people for the sins of some mouth piece and make all parties aware publicly. We do this for fun mind, we are actually mercenaries but will terrorize in our free time to ensure that things said on the forums have consequences in game, both for the safety of random bears and for the conscience of the mouth piece.

Kill it forward is such a great idea.

I should really get in on that.

One of the bitter points of a good bittervet is the realisation that all those SP don't really do much, and that the newbie is having much more fun with what little he has. - Tippia

There is only one reason to reroll a character and that's if you join certain corporations that might mean other corporations will not hire you in the future

What I mean by inviting, is whether or not I can talk/offer to have a buddy invite onto another account.

You see, I am using this account to figure out the game, while I will use the next trial account (hopefully 21 day) to be able to refine upon mistakes.


Why?

Mistakes are how you learn. Starting over is simply throwing away the skillpoints you have accumulated for no good reason.

You can "start over" as many times as you like without ever throwing away a character. Just change your mind about what you want to do, start training those skills and carry on.

If some corp won't accept your character because of something in the character's history, find a different corp. There are plenty to choose from.

HAHAHAHA

That is so NOT true.


Hell, if a corp declines you just cause you been in corp "x"...you don't want to be in such a corp anyway.

They are WAY to paranoid and don't value their members for who they are, but only look at some history sheet not your actual actions.


Hell, as a recruiter, I was always less afraid of someone with a "bad corp" in their history then those with NO corp history at all. The ones with the bad corp in his history, you at least knew that you had to be careful. It's the real covert people you have to be afraid about.


But you clearly are as dumb as most other recruiters and only think spy when he is obviously been in another corp you don't like, and anybody who hasn't got those corps on their list, can't possibly be relatedUghUghUghBlink

IMHO, the best way to start (which I did a couple of weeks ago) was to accept a Buddy Invite. Day 1 into my 21-day trial, my bank account was over 700 million. You can buy a whole bunch of skill books with that kind of scratch.

I'm messing around with missions for now and learning my way around with little difficulty. Why? Because I did all of the career missions. I would not even think to start tooling around EVE without having done them.

Yes, Eve has a steep learning curve. My advice is to start climbing. There are tons of video tutorials on YouTube, and the Eve UniWiki is my friend. Go find some skill plans for various occupations (my main is working on PvP survival skills).

Furthermore, make sure you keep an eye on what CCP is offering. I think the free 20-day alt training offer is still on the table. I'm using this to train my alt in PI (real easy) and "run away and survive" skills to generate passive ISK to transfer to my main character to fund the inevitable PvP losses.

One last thing: DO THE TUTORIALS. Yes, I said it twice for a reason. You will get a decent mining ability out of the deal and will be able to make a couple of million ISK per hour in RELATIVE safety. Mining is pretty boring though....

not talking about spies as such, I think U-MAD has a policy of not recruiting anyone who has been in EVE Uni at any point or some such as that.

It's more about elitcism if nothing else.

Then, you just laugh at them...and remind them of the mistake they make and then go find a better corp.

Oh don't get me wrong, I fully agree with the fact that corps who judge your history aren't worth joining. I was just putting it out there in case OP want's to be a high sec wardeccing hero.
