I thought about quitting after few months playing, I lost so much stuff flying is space that I thought it does not have much sense playing because I will lost everything what I will earn, but then I thought about all these treasures and ISK in space waiting for me and I stayed hoping to git gud. Now I have 3 years paid Omega time and 24 PLEX in redeem system and I am not planning on leaving.

Throw a party!
Each Christmas/New Year's I throw a party in my original starter system. Fireworks, snowballs. I do it every night until I run out of supplies. Somewhere between 4 and 7 nights, usually.
New players come out, ask questions, enjoy the show. They engage with another player, or players if there is a crowd watching, and learn there are other ways of enjoying EVE besides mining or industry or shootouts or exploration.
I know Rupee Rue usually has a variation of this in Dodixie with a ship, so pilots can get a killmail, over the holidays.
So, have a party! With your funds, you could have a party to end all parties. Fund fabulous party favors, for all attending. Talk with the guys who show up to participate and relive your memories, the good and the bad.
Tell your story.....one last time. |

A long time ago in a system far, far away I was seriously tempted to biomass this char. Hopefully, one corp member (SpoonBender79) said: STOP you fool. You will regret it. And I certainly would. Because now, whenever I need to get my EvE fix I resub and log in. Sometimes for week, sometimes for months. Click and and I am back. With all my skills, ships and ISK. Otherwise I would need to grind all crappy things again. So, if you have urge to stop playing or delete your char, just log off for some time. Because noone will care if you quit or ragequit. Noone will notice if you self-destruct into supernova with your super, after reprocessing all your stuff. If you ever cared about EvE - you will be back. If you not - you wouldn't ask this question :)

Just write CCP an email and say you want RL money for your in-game ISK. I mean, that will totally happen since like 98% of Eve gamers believe in-game isk has RL monetary value, so lucky you, you are a rich man (in RL, lol). |

I too wonder if I would want to return, I guess biomassing takes away the temptation to some degree, can you imagine having to start again.
I think I would donate all my ISK and assets to various causes, maybea chunk to "the magic school bus", the rest amongst people that help new people in game. I may even contact someone to organise an event like destroy a capital ship, I cannot fly one so I would have to get someone else to do it. |

You actually do this? or you would do this ifyou were quitting... if you do this already I think that is a fantastic idea.

Leave them as they are. I've taken breaks and thought I wasn't going to play anymore. Then a year or so later I'm back to some degree. I'm not the type to rage quit... so sans rage I don't know why I'd get rid of anything.

Now a days, Work keeps me so busy that I end up barely even getting enough time to volunteer.
I spend more time Volunteering then I do on my Actual player accounts, but Im still around!
For one thing is certain...
Jobs come and go, new careers start up, sometimes you return to an old one... Maybe no career at all.
But EVE will be there, always waiting to greet you at the door with a cookie... and a punch to the gut to remind you to never leave her again.
And to take out the trash.

[Kenobi voice] Hello there.
I actually "have" quit EVE, although by no means did I want to.
I (as another PC) was in a great PVP corp, was learning the ropes, had good interactions on coms, and really enjoy the game. That character wanted a bit of independence, so left the corp but still wanted to ally with them and continue learning. This didn't go down too well apparently. Then killed off first character (bad mistake I guess) and proceeded to attempt to join several other corps, got called "spai" a lot, got a bit jaded from lack of social contact in-game and the jaded nature of interactions.
Then in RL crisis hit, my gaming comp died and I became homeless. I'm back on my feet (and a bed) now, but currently stuck with a potato comp which can't play EVE.
If I end up "quit" forever (getting a good comp will take some time, rebooting account/skill queue etc even more) I think I'd PM an old corp buddy or two and see if they'd like some donated space junk and iskies.

- If you made freinds just give your stuff to them. - If you think if was important to help new players spend to the Magic School Bus and newbie freindly Alliances. - If you want to go out in a great ball of fire and want people to remember go down in a blingy Titan. - If you want to punish someone before you leave use all your assets to hire some mercs. If I go I will take you with me style. |

I'd do what i did 6 months ago, jump back into my own corp and sink the majority of my liquid isk into plex and wait until the innevitible pull of Eve returning while playing skill queue online.
Been thinking of returning again the last few months which i knew i would as this is the 3rd time in 9yrs ive had a break, so about to start looking for a WH corp that fits my playtime and outlook. |

If I were truly quitting and never coming back, not ever, never ever ever, I'd trash it all because **** you guys. Get your own stuff.
Eve is like an addiction; you can't quit it until it quits you.

Quitting because you're angry or disillusioned with the game is different than feeling it's become an impediment to your life. But I wouldn't biomass. I can't think of any bridges I've burned that I didn't eventually regret.
Biomassing feels like rage-quitting to me. Like when I smoked -- in the morning I'd decide cigarettes were out of control and I'd crush the pack and throw them away. That night I'd be digging through the trash hoping one might be salvageable. When I finally quit for good it was because I found a better reason to not smoke than the enjoyment I got from smoking.
TL;DR: I'd liquefy most of my assets. Give parting gifts to players or groups I care about. Maybe pull off one ridiculously expensive stunt. And leave plenty of startup funds in case my life changed in the future and I had time and desire for Eve again.
Most importantly I'd like to leave with something that feels good rather than bitter.
P.S. OP: Best of luck with the new chapter in your life!
