I am not sure if this is the right forum, so please correct me if not.
I just wanted to say hello. I have heard of this game, but never "pulled the trigger" to join till a couple days ago. What an awesome game! I just wanted to say hello, since I am stuck at work atm, and say sorry, but I am sure I will be asking a ton of questions :P
Anyway, that's all.. for now.. heh
See ya out there!

Welcome to EVE newbie. If you have questions... ask them here first. You will generally get better responses here than you will on the rest of the forum. Change isn't bad, but it isn't always good. Sometimes, the oldest and most simple of things can be the most elegant and effective.

Look forward to meeting you in game, then stealing your stuff.
If you have any questions, do ask. In EVE, we like to fatten up the prey before going in for the kill. Better fights and better loot that way.
But yeah, this is definitely the forum section where you should ask questions. We are helpful to anyone with the right attitude (i.e. doesn't try to get the game changed to suit them but instead brings a competitive mindset to it).
Let us know some of the things you want to do in EVE, and we'll give you a few tips. https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=346564 - a proposal to overhaul the Logistics skill https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=238931 - an idea for a new form of hybrid PVE/PVP content. www.minerbumping.com - ganking miners and causing chaos |

Excellent input all.
Well, my 2nd full day, so to speak, and I am having a blast. Someone threw like 10 mil in my account, freaked me out.. lol.. so I am up to like 15 mil and a few ships. Life is good.
Working on making money first, and raising my skills. Then, I will be working on learning what types of weapons are best for my play style AND... how to stealth ;)
I was also learning a few tricks about waypoints and escape routes, so will try that this weekend. I know it is only highsec, but better to train where it is safe, for now.
Give me a week and I'll be shooting across the galaxy! ;)

Highsec is a target rich environment, so there's plenty of predators who will quite happily relieve you of your stuff given the chance. The trick is not to give them the chance to do so.

Thanks folks.
BTW - Is there a way to manipulate the skill queue outside of logging into the game.. iphone app etc?
The only things I find are old posts to apps that no longer exist.
I like EVEGate, and was just curious.. heh...probably not possible, but had to ask ;)
I am looking forward to being off work later this week and being able to play. I got into a corp, not a big one, but they seem like nice folks.

You can monitor and plan skills out of game, but the only way to actually manipulate the skill queue is to log in to the game.
Evemon is the most commonly used skill planner, and you may find EFT handy for mucking around with ship fits.
The guys who produce them update the links in the threads whenever a new version is released.

There's currently no way to manipulate the skill queue from outside of eve. Eve gate allows the sending of evemails, and editing of contacts, but nothing else. I have to admit that I would love to have an app that could hook into in game chat channels from outside of the game.
