I might sound like a douche, but I am somehow glad to hear that you burned out on eve. I mean, you were scary...a person who put so much time and effort both into his study and this game, without ever faltering. Finally showing signs of eve-burnout makes you human again
Not sure how bad it is currently, but I found out that at least for me, unsubscribing for a few months worked far better than just lurking and playing skillqueue online.
If everything else fails, I can highly recommend just settling down in the middle of nowhere and building AFs and dictors...
I'd like to apologize for the poor quality of the post above and sincerely hope you didn't waste your time reading it. Yes, I do feel bad about it.

In person I tend to be fairly quiet and reserved. I prefer to listen, observe, and learn before leaping in and making assumptions, though I'm as guilty of it as anyone. I'm told I have a good poker face and I rarely show my emotions. When I'm around new people I don't often talk much but I open up with and have been known to mercilessly tease those I get to know better.
My experiences have left me with an inclination to be open-minded and I appreciate artistry and beauty in a great many forms. I like to see the best in people, and enjoy when the positive aspects inherent in everyone shine through. However, I am not exactly an optimist as my sarcasm and dark humor will attest. I tend to be driven by both logic and creativity and if I focus on one I find myself craving the other. Often it seems like I'm always thinking, mind racing, as much as I wish I could stop sometimes.
One of my greatest interests is technology in all it's forms. Starting as a kid working with basic robotics up to teaching myself the latest programming languages, I've always been fascinated in everything from the flow of the electrons to the shine of the led. Several years studying game development has also given me a deeper appreciation of the games I play, and although I can be a harsh critic, especially of indie games, I also know exactly how much effort goes into the development of any game, especially an mmo.
That's a bit about me, but not all, since where would the fun be without a little mystery? |

Commissar Kate wrote:Ok serious time now.... but I have nothing of note myself really I'm just a regular 26 year old florida redneck that just sits here playing Eve and does nothing else right now besides collecting tax money in the form of a disability check due to a few health problems. It's not really all its cracked up to be either. Plus throw in some severe depression in the past an it makes it really not fun.... I'd trade all this in to be healthy if I could but I can't. And no I don't have cancer Can I live vicariously through the res of you guys? Pretty please?
Im in very much the same situation but with a different attitude towards it. I'm on disability for mental illness, which I mentioned in my original post in this thread. I am almost always in hermit mode myself. I become VERY uncomfortable when out and about, so pretty much the only times I leave the house are to see the psychiatrist or my therapist. Maybe a few times a year I'll go spend a weekend at the home of my best friend of 21 years. I prefer it if he comes over here lol.
It rly doesnt bother me much. As I said in my previous post, my passions are my cat (my baby) music, and cooking. I have all of these things at home. My therapist is always telling me to "get out and socialize;" For a guy with a PhD I'm pretty surprised that he doesnt get that this IS my socializing. Right now, writing this post, reading yall's posts. In game I chat live with my friends. When Im done eating dinner Im going to text my CEO and another corpie. Maybe we'll talk on TS later, tho I prefer to only do that during ops or meetings. I never liked talking on the phone either.
TBH, I ILIKE my situation for the most part; not the illness (AT ALL) but my living situation. As I said, I'm a hermit anyway. I actually consider myself blessed in a way. It's sometimes very difficult being me, thinking, feeling, seeing and hearing the things I do(that usually arent really there), but on the flip side, I dont get up every day and go to a job I don't like, I dont have to be around people all the time and try to focus on what they're saying to me, etc. I sleep in 2-3 (if Im lucky 4) hour shifts, not by choice. It happens a few times a day, but I see the bright side even in that: I'm online at least for a few hours in all timezones
So I have Mr Nixon (my cat) as my constant companion, if I get bored I make something nice to eat, I can play Eve and listen to music whenever I want. There's always a bright side to things, even if the grass looks a LOT greener on the other side. I wouldnt be as presumptuous as to tell anyone what to do, but appreciating even the small things has a great impact on my overall happiness, or at least contentment.
sorry for the long post

My mother was an ER nurse (RN) for thirty-something years before she retired. I've heard some real doozies of stories from her, and Ive spent time there myself.

I'm left handed.
I really love dogs but I've never had a dog myself (though i babysit a few..).
I have a knife blade sized section of my right scapula missing. It's hard to spot now, but there is an area on my back that will just feel empty if you push your finger in. Side fact: every time I see the scene in T2 where the T1000 steps next to the little blob of himself he lost briefly in a chase and then absorbs it, it reminds me of my missing piece of bone
I'm a decent Eskrima fighter.

I always imagined myself to be a cog in the machinery of my life dutyfully spinning and wheeling and clicking along until one day I shout REBELLION and all that stops.
For a second before my replacement comes along.
Kinda relieving to know that you're not irreplaceable, takes the edge of the pressure, If I fall ten more will take my place (Yes, that was a WH40K Quote). xD
Also, I like my cat. He's slightly bigger than most dogs in our little settlement and when we let him out for the first time he immediatly started to conquer is own little (actually it was quite big) turf which then he defended vigorously. Some of the dog owners even stared at me in a most accusingly manner claiming that some little monster had torn up their dogs ears and now the dog doesn't want to leave the house anymore.
And that's the part I like most about my cat because now none of that uggly smelly monsters will **** ony the lawn that's supposed to be there for the children to play on. Stupidity should be a bannable offense.

When you first meet me, i'm a quite introvert. I tend to people watch, in a large crowd of people I don't know I am typically silent and stand offish. Once I either a) get to know you through many meetings or b) hear something i'm interested in, then I socialize. I'm blunt and to the point, but I seem to be likeable *shrugs* OMG Comet Mining idea!!! https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=331766 |

Something else about me and mine; I am very blessed in that I have 4 friends that have been my friends for about 21 years now. We've all lived together at some point or another, multiple times over the years, we've been thru very bad stages of doing the hard stuff together if u know what I mean, we've recovered from that $hit together. We're like a family, and Id rather have those 4 very close friends then have a lot of friends that weren't nearly as close.
Anyway, what I was getting at, is that I hug my male friends, tell them I love them, and they do the same. Family trumps machismo. A vote for the lesser evil is still a vote for evil.

Hmmm.... okay, maybe just a few tidbits from me that people won't already know.
These days, I mostly keep to myself. I write freelance but I'm officially unemployed and on disability, so I play EVE a lot.
What I would like to be doing, though, if I can ever summon the courage and sociability again, is go back to singing, and maybe do a little standup like I always wanted to. Before I discovered EVE at the height of a personal crisis I was having (discovering EVE literally saved my life), I was very social. I worked in sales, and once a week, every Wednesday night, my whole team would hit up a backpackers bar in Brisbane City. I can't remember what it was called, but it was a rather obscure place, hard to find. Anyway, they did karaoke on Wednesdays, that's the important part. My one and only claim to fame is that I was actually quite good at it and at one point was even taking requests.
Favourite songs to sing included anything by the Goo Goo Dolls, Matchbox 20, Linkin Park, Nirvana, Three Doors Down, and a few others. I was once convinced to do the male background vocals for a girl I liked who was singing that Evanescence song I can't remember the title of.... the one from that bad Daredevil movie.
MOST FUN songs to sing included Smells Like Teen Spirit, In The End (best done with two people), Big Machine, Slide, Push, 3am, Disease, and a few obscurities by Panic at the Disco like, my personal favourite, There's a Good Reason These Tables Are Numbered Honey, You Just Haven't Thought Of It Yet (yes, that's the song title, the whole thing). I also enjoyed any number of duets with various drunkards at the pub, and on another occasion, a group effort singing Tubthumping's Chumbawumba.
And yes, I will and do sing on coms GÇ£Some capsuleers claim that ECM is 'dishonorable' and 'unfair'. Jam those ones first, and kill them last.GÇ¥ - Jirai 'Fatal' Laitanen, Pithum Nullifier Training Manual c. YC104 |
