Talking about your main, not your industry alt. This doesn't include AFC time where you did not have access to the internet or a computer. Talking about logging on a regular basis but not undocking.

What is the longest time between undocks?

You mean when youre online, aye? XD


I think the longest time I've spent docked up as maybe an hour or so trying to fit a god damn Eagle fit I would like.

Was before I found EFT. So it took a while.

Kind of a non answer but if I'm not undocking I'm probably not playing EVE. I can't imagine logging on to sit in the station. I've stepped in doo doo and had to wait out some folks but at most that would be an hour I suppose unless I ind something good on netflix and get engrossed in it.

I have played skill queue online a lot though depending on my schedule.

Anyway, way too many games and way too little time to log into this one to sit somewhere. Bad enough roaming for an hour for a 2 minute fight.

I sit in station a lot, afk. there's no real reason to log off when cloaked or hiding in a station.

sometimes I chat it up in the intel channels or spam local

The last week before I finally got my first T2 cruiser, my after-work routine was "log in, check queue, sigh, roll doobie."

No, I'm not that kind of doctor.

Months with weeks on a regular basis and then only long enough to empty PI hoppers and dock back up. I don't even say that in a bitter way. There is content in EVE that is planning and much of that is very long term. It doesn't require you to be in space mashing the F keys.

I once spent 3 weeks roaming from wormhole to wormhole just me and my Orca alt. Before that I spent 3 months in a wormhole just me my Orca, and the POS.

It was probably around two weeks or so, while updating portraits.

There was a lil undocking on some, but for the most part none of my characters left station until I was happy with everyone's portrait, especially my main's which literally took a few weeks of gametime to get right before I returned to my corp in w-space.

As a wormholer fashion is important and I can't very well go murdering folks while looking worse than their corpses.

Longest was probably while I was a CEO. Would spend several hours organising things, talking with other corp leaders or offering advice to our newer players. Only once past midnight and most had logged off would I take some time to myself.

Then I went and got myself a real job. Blink

Meh.

I've had those days when I started out like "I'm going to play Eve till I puke" and then crap comes up the minute I log on and then stay logged on and 12 hours later I see I'm still logged on and I'm covered in "crap" and there goes a day off.

I had times where i was docked months in a row , but then that's normal when you do trading Blink.

Minutes ... hour

Fitting ships, waiting for fleet to leave, selling/buying stuff, jump clone cooldown (rarely).

I'm my own NPC alt.

Market alt stays in station except for skill books and a few other things so months at a stretch. Others are all variable, some more than others.

Have you heard anything I've said?

You said it's all circling the drain, the whole universe. Right?

That's right.

Had to end sometime.

Dawg. Roll doob as a fallback? Geez. The correct sequence is:

1. Pour beer.
2. Roll doob.
3. Log game.
4. Torch doob.
5. Ask on comms, "How iz ebbybuddy?"
6. Exhale.

We must accommodate the idiocracy.

I actually spent 4+ hours once researching a course of study including what modules require what training to what level, ships, other skills, various configurations, various ships, various general skills. By the time I was done I forgot what it was I meant to do and found myself on a Pony Girl website wondering who in the **** would dress like that????

PS How iz ebbybuddy?
