I think you can put a fleet advert on craigslist if youre into that....

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

WH are kinda dead from my point of view. My corp dropped a POS in one that had been dead for just over 2 years the other day.

I would embrace the CODE and become an Agent of the New Order.

Not only will you find yourself totally immersed in the 'solo content' that you created by being an Agent, but you'll come to realize that you're helping the Eve Community overall by making hi-sec a much better place.

Uh..anywhere? Seriously you can solo anywhere in eve except for c6 wormholes. Anything c5 and under is soloable in the right ship, along with highsec, lowsec, and nullsec. You're a soloist. Just get that eve playstyle flowchart, throw darts at it, and then pick a direction and fly. For all the "solo is bad" stuff you can solo 90% of content in eve, and I'm not just referring to pve. Get skirmish or cloaky ships and hunt all over null and wspace. Or get a t3 a depot and a bunch fittings and wander null refitting on a whim.

Is it disturbing that I can read your posts and guess who wrote it before scrolling over and seeing the avatar?

I consider myself solo player. My favorite activity in EVE are fleets which farm headquarter sites in incursions - they consist of mostly random people. Some of them are running 23/7 so your AU TZ won't be a problem.

Playing games is not the best what you can do with your spare time. I think you are starting to see it, but your tie to the character and amount of time you invested keeps you from going away, unsubbing. You can start your therapy by living the world of EVE on new level, not only gaming, but creating something out of game, eve related. When you are done with it, send me a message, I will tell you what next step is.

There's some really good solo content in VFK-IV.

Things are only impossible until they are not.

You don't need a location, you need a mission. For example, I want to **** * **** on space. I don't know when, or how, or what, but that's my solo mission.

...ok, I actually do have an idea about how and what and I'm pretty sure I'm gonna need a lot of pretend $$$. A lot.

To be fair to the game, High Sec is the best place for Solo content in the terms you describe. You have access to most aspects of EVE but you will find they are all training level and result in a loss or you are using your time to experience the content and are doing it for free. You won't get rich.

Everything but capital ship production can be done in high sec. PI, POS, exploration, mining, frigate level PvE (level 1&2 missions) Cruiser level PvE (level 3 missions) Battleship level PvE (level 4 Missions)

Market games are pretty much exclusive to High Sec and while Industry is heading away from High Sec, closed society null insures Market will always be in High Sec. It's also the one aspect that could get you rich although it's an outside chance that requires risk and random. I've won and lost more ISK in Jita than I have anywhere else in the game. All the while having access to all content in the game from an experience perspective. Not including Capital related beyond freighter.

Why not get in touch wil a (casual)) lowsec corp? Most of the guys in mine are working class citizens, we don't have time to sit through some dull nullsec talk or do CTA's or mandatory ops. At least not without getting paid Cool

We do have the oppurtunity to fly with a fleet, but also roam around solo with Teamspeak as your first and foremost intel channel. A lot of my evenings are spent just roaming lowsec solo or with a small group, doing some exploration or hunting for targets. Sometimes I carebear it up and fiddle with PI and manufacturing, well... stuff. The slots in lowsec aren't exactly cluttered and I expect they will turn out to be cheaper alternatives to hisec manufacturing. I still think lowsec is the best place for a singular pilot to enjoy his freedom.

We keep structure grinds to a minimum so when they do happen, it feels fresh and 'big' to people who are used flying in gangs no bigger then 10-20 pilots.

In a very broad way I would like ccp to go back and look at how they have structured low and nullsec from a physical accessibility stand point. Another thread somewhere detailed how those choke points worked in the days of yore and it got me thinking. Reading the wormholes sub forum and the constant high pitched whining about having noone to shoot at. The snail pace of changing things in ways that eventually happens anyway.

This is not necessarily a solo or a group related thought ita just a musing on how the game has moved away from ambitious but poorly executed ideas to this now very mature and kind stale cheese that sits on a shelf. People perceive it aging and that it automatically qualifies as getting better but it feels like there's some fear that eating it now might deprive you of its finest hour.. when the flipside might be it mouldering and giving in to rot.

I think I know what I want to do next but I'm worried it might be my last hurrah and that when I have consumed all I can then there will be nothing left but that old empty promise of "it will get better later, just wait some more". How many characters have been unsubbed and just left on the shelf? At what time do people finally say that it doesn't matter what has been changed in eve because it took so long to get there? While your toon in eve never ages a day people in reality do and their interest in something is much like a fine cheese. I just wonder whether I will come back in some years time to a better game or if my interest will have faded completely - having exhausted all play styles and seen everything I could/cared to.
