I think one of my biggest regrets in the game is that I was too ambitious and came too far too fast in the pursuit of acquiring and maintaining wealth & power. I think if I were to do Eve all over again I would have moved much slower into lowsec & nulsec and took my time rather than learning about everything so quickly and thereby losing much of the essence of the great mysteries of the verse. I would spend more time flying cheap ships and ponder what lies beyond that scary place they call lowsec. The pilots I think I envy most are the ones traversing lowsec & wormholes with their T1 scanning ships running hacking & archeology sites and doing backflips because they've hit the jackpot with a 100mil score. Instead 95% of the time am am wasting away in station attempting to grow my wealth. Ooh I long to be the guy who can afford to lose 3 ships a day but I MUST fly my shiny ships and -10bil a day is not good for maintaining ones wealth.
I know others must have this dilemma or perhaps similar ones.
If you were to start Eve anew how would your playstyle change from what it has become today? |

I wouldn't rush to Battleships just because they're bigger and more expensive (which, in any other game, means "better").
Bigger is not always better. Just because you can sit in it, doesn't mean you should sit in it.

If i could do Eve all over again, I'd quit, because **** waiting another 2.5 years to train all those skills again.
To be fair though, I'd have a much more efficient skill plan next time around.

This, a million times this. If I had told myself it'd take years before you could fly and do all the things I wanted... I probably would have skipped Eve entirely. |

I would have been more focused. Learn to do one or two things well instead of a million things horribly.
My furthest along character in my "on again - off again" play style has about 17 million SP and he can fly almost every races T1 sub cap ship. Poorly. |

If I could do EVE all over again, with the exact same realities, I would not do a certain thing in local with some certain person listening and copying pretty much everything I said.

Would just carry on that what it is that I do and hope that I meet similar if not same people along the way.
Best asset in Eve is my friends contact's list, could never abandon that and not even for a new start.

Didn't even use a dominix to doneassistfleet, two years later, either. What a pity.

It doesn't really hurt that much. At four years of age the minority of people who have actual brains to use, will have learned that the SP aren't the be all end all of fun or necessity. |

I wouldn't gimp myself trying to plex my account as early as possible but instead just pay my f****** subscription with real money and use the ingame ISK for ships and other cannon fodder instead.
And I would probably put more emphasis on page snipes.
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.

Fun fact: With proper training queues, you can be running C4s and C5s with a small to medium-size fleet in under 1 million SP - as long as you have some moderately higher-skilled (~7-10m SP) DPS pilots and someone that knows what they're doing FCing. |

I started all over again last year. Started pvp on day 6 and kept going ever since. SP aren't all they're cracked up to be. They provide options, not smarts.

EVE has gotten smaller for me. I lived in LowSec for a year and I know how to survive and make money there. I lived in HiSec and learned how to grief other players there, and in so doing, learned how to survive in HiSec (which is actually a really dangerous place). I moved into WH's and they have been entertaining me for 6 months. I still fly around in cheap frigs and cruisers. I care less about the ISK involved in what I do and more in the novelty/entertainment factor. Having a 50 billion ISK net worth will do that to you.
All you have to do is step away from the ISK grubbing and undock in a cheap ship and just go do something.
