1.how long have you lived in Wormhole space

2 how long have you gone without dying in wormhole space

3.what got you interested in Wormhole space


what got me interested in trying it out the YouTube videos I have seen of it so far is what convinced me to give it a try

I haven't got killed in there yet but I know it's going to happen at some point I hope I can survive in there at least for a week ;3

in the future I might join a corporation in there but so far I like doing things by myself in there

1. around 3 years

2. several weeks ... could ofc be longer as it is kinda possible to avoid it if you wanna make it super secure, but not 100%

3. it's too long ago that i got into it, no idea tbh, since at that time i did not know much else anyway, so there is not much difference to now ... except wh-space, i don't know much else (which is actually not true, since i am aware about most k-space mechanics and stuff, but more the politics here and there and coalitions and who is friendly with whom).

Do you set a trap at a relic site and wait or do you roam and try to catch them (offguard) ? And can I distinguish a abondoned ship from a piloted one when I scan it down?

1. 6 years. Long enough that on more than one occasion, I've ducked out to k-space and discovered that I no longer had jumpgates on my overview.
2. On industrial-type characters, close to 5 years. On more pvp-centric characters, I've lost ships in the past couple weeks, pods a few months ago.
3. The Lost in EVE podcast by Jade got me interested in the idea. I liked the idea of free space to do anything without all the overhead of sov nullsec. Applied to Jade's corp, joined, and am now the longest running member of the corp (with Jade long gone, at that).

1. 4 years? Maybe another 5-6 months before that where I was day tripping.

2. My longest stretch? Maybe a month or two including all my characters. I try to die once every couple of weeks at least. If you aren't taking bait or shots that stretch your comfort zone then why bother. I also don't fly a lot of T3s for that reason.

3. Our corp had been in wormhole space for a while, but I think the biggest part of it has been getting a feel for wormhole pvp. Pitched fleet battles are not really the meat and potatoes. It's trying to figure out what's a trap, whether your enemy saw you or not, their timezones, how many pilots you'd guess they have active, past encounters. It makes for interesting and thoughtful game play. come for the PVE stay because you died.

edit: also **** decloak POS's. *Shakes Fist*

I wish I came up with a better title for this post so they might sticky this because I think more people reading it more people might jump into wormholes

I have lived in WH space for 6+ years now, maybe 1 or 2 expansions after it initally came out.

The longest? Maybe a month, probably less, but i pvp frequently. I tend to multibox, so my fights can be a bit, lopsided lol

4 years? I think. Lived in C2, C5 and C6 space (Polaris; with No Holes Barred) and back into C2 space with my current corp.

Several weeks maybe / couple of months.

It's wormholes, which means no local, which means I can cloaky hunt without being seen until its too late. I joined NoHo for the bigger fights and high end wormhole living. Not looked back sinne I moved into wormholes Big smile

Quoted from Doc Fury: "Concerned citizens: Doc seldom plays EVE on the weekends during spring and summer, so you will always be on your own for a couple days a week. Doc spends that time collecting kittens for the on-going sacrifices, engaging in reckless outdoor activities, and speaking in the 3rd person."

1: I've had most of my economic activities based in wormholes for about 18 months now.
2: sometimes weeks, othertimes minutes.
3: a friend. we've moved once and been evicted once before setting up in our current system. it's been a learning experience.

1. Like 3 years

2. Once every couple of weeks

3. Was looking for something to move onto after EVE Uni, read through the apprenticeship programs on their forums and the wormhole ones seemed the most interesting. Unfortunately RL got in the way before I had a good go at it.

Came back after a year and went back to mission running and questioned what I was doing with my life, remembered that i was in a wormhole Corp before my break and decided to get back into it. Been in scary space ever since ^^

I'm not really important so I think I qualify for answering your questions.

1 - I've lived in WHs for about 2 years 9 months, day tripping for 1 year before that.
2 - Probably a couple of months or less.
3 - I was a relic/data solo hunter too in the beginning, but what got my attention was the people. Some day I got chased out of a data site in a WH (failed trap) and started a chat with the griefer, turns out they were nice people in a fresh corp, recently starting in WH linving. So I decided to apply to join. Best decision I made in EVE. You may feel good going solo but you don't know what you are missing until you join a corp with nice people.

1. Exclusively, about 6 or 7 months now.

2. It's been almost a week.

3. It feels like you can build a nice little home that's equal to null in some respects (great PI, rarer ores) and for myself I get a new highsec exit everyday. I will go out and explore the whole constellation my static connects to for DED sites and whatever other content I might want to run. (PVE or PVP wise)

1. I've been living in w-space for most part of my EVE career, but last 1.5 years I have been playing a nomadic style, stalking and hunting without permanent home.

2. My main - Zosius, that has been a part of hunting, haven't died once in the last 1.5 years. Though I was ambushed and lost half my multiboxing fleet 7 months ago.

3.No local got me interested in this playstyle.

1. 4 to 5 years, somewhere in there.
2. A couple of months, just the nature of lower w space in late AUTZ early EUTZ that you don't hit many super dangerous situations everyday.
3.Some corp mates said they were moving into one, I asked if I could come too, never left.
