I am returning player ( 3yrs ) so basically new. I have a paid account but want to create a free account to get to know the game again and learn the interface before i launch all the old Char's. Is this possible and where do i go to get the info on how to do it. So much has changed ... so little time so much info : )

Thx in advance

Just on the home page click the button to create a new account. It'll have you verify an email and you can get started right away with character creation. Pretty much the same method as any online program nowadays.

you could just log into your old account and use it, its free to play after all. Why would you need a new account for that? I mean you can create a new one of course if you like - that works too.

how to fix eve: 1) remove ECM 2) rename dampeners to ECM 3) add new anti-drone ewar for caldari 4) give offgrid boosters ongrid combat value

He may want to preserve his main's low profile/standings, and he wants to look at the 'greener pastures' that he hasn't tried yet.

That or hes planning to awox someone lol. Either way OP, you can even use the same email account as your old account. Transferring items to multiple alpha chars is a pain though, unless you can contract to many chars.

could be he wants to go through the tutorials. Could be he wants the rookie experience all over again, clean slate. The 'why' doesn't really matter as long as he knows what his options are. The 'how' is even easier. You push a button.
