Try a new area of EVE to play in.

Try Highsec Wardecs, Either make a solo corp, or Join one of the many out there.

Try Lowsec FW,

Gatecrash in a Golem

Try Exploration.

Try live in a wormhole



You have a lot of choices. XP

5. Trolling is prohibited.

Trolling is a defined as a post that is deliberately designed for the purpose of angering and insulting other players in an attempt to incite retaliation or an emotional response. Posts of this nature are disruptive, often abusive, and do not contribute to the sense of community that CCP promote.



I have Removed some offending Posts, and those quoting them.

So what do you guys do for fun? I tried the corp thing for a bit, but lost interest mainly cuz I'm too lazy to recruit. Joined a WH corp a bit before that, quit when the CEO dropped us in the middle of an alliance with multiple wars ( from my understanding we were 'discussing the possibility' of doing so ). And a few corps before that, but it all just gets boing after awhile, so someone PLEASE enlighten me!




You have a problem, if you can't be bothered to do anything then you won't find anything fun.

Maybe go outside and get some fresh air.

Follow these two easy steps to happiness

1. Keep training and join this, the first of several milestone SP clubs in the Skills discussion section of the Eve-online forums (never stop training, training is love, training is life).
https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=427601&find=unread

2. Join Karmafleet or Pandemic Horde. You may not stay forever, but you'll be exposed to a wide and random sampling of EVE players on group comms. It's a bit like chatroulette. Some people are beautiful, most are a sweaty man sitting naked on a black leather couch masturbating. But it will make this game spring to life.

Ah if I could only have that first time again, of being alone on comms at 3AM with a man who I am pretty sure was sitting naked on a black leather couch masturbating and hot mic'd the whole time.

Would you like to hear the soundcloud? It was also a This Is Eve submission.

But in Eve, I shoot ships. It's fun. Almost as fun as porn.


Funny thing is people I know call PvP in Eve "Ship Porn".

Some even film their exploits for laughs, bragging rights, and such later. Some do it drunk off their asses. Most do it while filming and drunk, which is always funnier. See, "Ship Porn".

"Tomahawks?"

"----in' A, right?"

"Trouble is, those things cost like a million and a half each."

Well, one thing I don't do is count my skill points and see them as some sort of goal in itself.

Perfection is a dish best served like wasabi .

I play the market in amarr for funzies and I go out in roaming gangs with my alliance mates in Null to shoot some nerds/ get chased down by Triumverate Cerberus gangs.

Basically I log in, do stuff with my buddies, **** talk with them on comms, get tired, go to sleep.

Good times. Nice and relaxing. Except last night when they left me to die because I didn't get the fleet warp due to my cpu still loading system.

The jerks.

Skill and fit a T2 catalyst, contact me in-game and we'll gank a miner.

You'll never run another mission or shoot another rock again.

If you think you've won, think again.

I had your same issue at about the same SP level.

What I did to keep myself going (after taking a 6 month or so brake) was to find other ships and/or methods that entertained me.
As an example, I have trained a jackdaw and gone out to get it blown up a couple times.

I've got into exploration, but the fact that your isk payout is tied to random chance annoys me.
I also got into running logi for incursions, but they're SO BORING!!
As of yesterday, I refitted my Golem a bit and started flying it with fof missiles.
Oddly enough, it appears fof missiles give me roughly the same completion time as using jav and Fury, due to not having to monitor volleys and target swapping.

my point is, change it up... Take a cheap ship and go out into low/null and try to blow something up/get blown up.

I'm sure you're at the point of no knowing what to train next, so just find something that you think will be entertaining and train that.
Also, since these future skills aren't a priority to you, you get jump into an empty clone and get it blown up a few times.

EVE is like any heavy stuff — you don't like it, you just use it, feel regret, ditching it for light stuff.
Till the day when you realize that NOTHING feels the same.

1. Find a corp with like minded people.

2. Play the game with them.

3. Chat with them on comms.

4. Instant message them during work hours.

5. Have fun.

Pretty good responses, and trolling ( it is EvE after all ), I think when I posted this a day or so ago I was just in a really 'bored' mood, and everything in EvE seemed like work at the time. There is definitely nothing near EvE itself, I think I'm just gonna liquidate some assets, buy some BS' and have a bit of fun.

Gonna keep my money makers docked up tho :D

Going into null and fighting 1 vs an alliance guerrilla style, is the only fun thing I can think of.

Keep it up, +1
