He didn't.

He is pretending, so he can write about the new player experience without the difficulties of being a new player.

He's also using his existing knowledge to show how many, potential money, areas of the game are open to a newbie with just a basic Ibis. He's also stated that he will only use the Ibis, with its civilian modules.


If he was only using an Ibis and civilian modules, that would be interesting. Sadly he isn't.

It's nice to know an experienced player can earn 600 mil doing lowsec exploration. Would that be those new sites with the mini game? I haven't tried those yet.

During my trial period, I did some missions to start off with some ISK, then went and ninja salvaged off of lvl4 missions. Made about 20-30mil an hour. Cormorant with 6 salvagers or so. Can't tractor without sec loss I think though so I had to fly to individual wrecks.

Had about 500mil after my trial period ended. The friend who referred me to the game, gave me the PLEX he got, I used it for a month's subscription, and I haven't paid since.


It's incredibly boring and mindnumbing though. Missioning was much more fun, though it paid a lot less.

I just turned into an egg, did I level up? I spent an hour trying to salvage a wreck, when in local a guy said "Stop it, this is my Tempest, I was AFK"

I'll learn to read, if you learn to write.

That hurts.

http://wiki.eveonline.com

It has a search function, you should use it. And by that, i mean you should use it every single time,
especially when you think something works the way you think it works.

You don't ever get a security hit for tractoring something,
but you can't tractor wrecks that aren't yours anyway.

But not if he gave his info to somebody...

OP you have a good attitude, if what you said isn't a scam :)
