This is one of your better portraits Solecist. I'd even go so far as to say it's the best i've seen yet.

i just offer people advice, isk does very little. Knowledge and information about the game is a lot more powerful.

Give a man a fish, teach a man to fish is the proverb that comes to mind here.

I guess I could add something relevant ...

Unlike what you see from me here, I'm actually ... different.

I always try to find unhappy people to give them an ear,
help them with advise or simple show them that I care.

You have no idea how much a virtual hug, a kiss on the cheek,
a bit of virtual flirting and cuddling can do for a person who
simply seeks a bit friendlyness and love.

There are too many people desperately seeking a way out of their lonely- and emptyness...
It saddens me far more than I thought it could.

Don't believe everything you read on the internet.


I distinctly remember saying this before. Did I say this before? I'm SURE I said this before. Maybe...just maybe people should get it tattooed on their FOREHEADS! MAYBE THEN...they'll REMEMBER!

(What was it she just said?)

We must accommodate the idiocracy.

I read that once, but it was on the internet, so I think it caused me to have a seizure.

hey everyone,

before i started playing eve, i have been reading a lot about eve.
in general, eve is considerd one of the most harsh games out there.

i'm wondering if we can get a threadnaught going on, disproving eve as a very mean and harsh game.
Because even after encountering scammer number 9213 or awoxer number 4527, there are random acts of kindness in eve.

so please, post here your experience with random encounters of kindess, which can reach from an pirate honoring a ransom, to someone helping you out form day 1.

lets hope people read this, and that it can help people find their way in eve, and its harsh, but sometimes very pleasant community.



I gave a mate of mine from the usa a shimmu bpc the other day. Because he will use it and I won't. Simple as that.

I've been donated around 1bil ISK, spread across my two main characters, since joining the game. Most of it from twitch streamers.

Ther is a grate number of good and helpful players in this game,but you wont find them in local chat often,they are tired of trolls spammers and grifers,So to new players this game migth seem to be ruled bay bad people,and yes thers a lott of them to,and game mecanics changes the last 3 years have been favoring more grifing wars,ther is harder to be a new player to day than it was 3 years ago.

I used to give out isk in jita at some boring times. On Christmas or something like that. I usualy asked if someone wanted isk, followed up by how much. Than i just send that amount followd by much suprises... loool

That was fun!

When I was about a month old and doing level 1's and losing cruisers on them (yes I know...) a guy in my NPC corp sent me 2 billion. I so far have gave away 600mil of it to other newbs and encourage you all to do the same.

I often have talks with new players (especially from Brave) that I have killed.. about what they did wrong and how to be better in general.. but i think the funniest one was..

I was talking with one of my mates from Brave on TS, while hunting in a solo Rupture and came across a Test Brutix belt ratting.. he manged to get into warp just before i made scram range.. but i noticed his drones had already auto agressed me, so warped to station and attacked him, and to my surprised died (had actually solo'd a Caracle in it 30min prior) .. We got him to jump onto the TS and had a good chat with him.. Turned out he was only a month old toon and just moved to Null and barely afforded the Brutix that he was in.. it was probably one of the worst fits i have ever seen.. but just so happened to have the random combination of mods to counter my fit (I also burnt out my guns like a scrub).. gave him 250mil and as my Brave mate was one of their Trainers, showered him in Ships, Mods and skill books to help him

There is giant "Like and get likes" thread in "Out of pod" section - there people talk nicely and gift thousands of internet points to each other.

The other day I let someone through a gate camp so they could go pew pew on the other side. That was probably the kindest thing, I still feel all warm and fuzzy when I think about it.

People have feelings. Maybe you check up on them,
then you'd understand. Somehow I doubt you'll succeed though...
