This idea is contrary to the basic concept of eve. It belongs in WoW and should stay there. I personally feel that seeking external approval for a sense of self satisfaction is something that typically should end in adolescence. To me adults set their own personal goals and are satisfied when they reach their own personal finish line.

I'm in my 40's, at my age if people were congratulating me for stuff I'd want to know what kind of medication they were on.

No, what eve is missing is a Damage Over Time attack or weapon system.

Imagine it! =D Your target is in structure, has been hit a few times with the DoT ammo, is able to break point and warp away, escaping you, only to get a notification moments later for a killmail after the DoT attack finished the job and they exploded while in warp.

Glorious!

Only time someone talks in EVE is when they have a question about a mechanic, they don't fully understand. So in corp, there is a lot of silence and rarely anything that bonds you to your fellow members of your corp.

You are in the wrong corp and this explains why you are looking for external gratification. This is eve it is a sandbox. You make your own content, content is not spoon fed to you in a linear and non-deviating format. If you were planing and doing stuff together then your corp chat would be busy.

My corp isn't all that big and there is always stuff going on in it. If you guys were doing stuff together there would be in your corp's chat as well. So start making plans and / or forming fleets and do stuff and corp chat won't be so silent. Well unless you whole corp is in fleet and then fleet chat will be busy but you get my point.

On a somewhat related note why would you assume that your corps chat channel is identical to everyone else's? Do you always assume that everyone else has the exact same experience as you? This is not meant to be demeaning but I am curious of your age.

I guess a more concise way of saying it is that as children we are congratulated for doing things on our own as adults we are thanked for helping others.
