1. Really Noob Market question - in EVE New Citizens Q&A [original thread]

2. So what do you do with dumb traders? - in Market Discussions [original thread]
As many have pointed out there are numerous and perfectly valid reasons for both the examples laid out by the OP. Dont see the problem myself. Now the really irritating people are the ones who think adjusting the price by 0.5 or 1 rather than 0.1...

7. What size are the new Tech3 ships? BS, BC??? - in EVE General Discussion [original thread]
Like Snake Tanuki said, it would be a shame if the ship parts are set to a static ship part, as this will result in someone not long after their release designing the best possible ship for purpose X and then it just becomes a cookie cutter design...

8. Need help/advice as to what to do next in the game... - in EVE New Citizens Q&A [original thread]
Originally by: Victor Comrade It doesn't appear that you can just 'PvP' as you need an source of income (I could be wrong though). Simply put, you are indeed wrong. Well partially at least. All you need to get started in PVP is a sour...

9. Thanks market people! - in Market Discussions [original thread]

Edited by: Hippy Dave on 27/10/2008 05:45:19 Originally by: Lord Fitz The only ways to combat them is to do it yourself, be smarter about it, undercut them enough so that it's no longer worth their time to do it, or just go somewhere ...

11. Old Gamespot EVE Review - Hilarious! :D - in EVE General Discussion [original thread]
Originally by: Saladin Its true the NPCs bounties were bad, but the money in NPCing came from the mods. I got my first cruiser (a bellicose) by selling LiF boosters at 500k a pop. You could make millions (yes millions were a big deal) sell...

15. Old Gamespot EVE Review - Hilarious! :D - in EVE General Discussion [original thread]
I played Eve way back around its release with my original toon. And while that review isnt entirely rubbish it does show a total lack of understanding about what Eve was meant to be. He approaches it like so many did back then as though its anoth...

16. 37000 - in EVE General Discussion [original thread]
I havent noticed any drop in player numbers so i doubt many people quit at all to be honest. And personally i think 'most' of the whiners were what someone above said 0.0 min/maxers. I mean really how many casual carebears have multiple accounts?

17. The Exodus from Jita - in Market Discussions [original thread]
Jita became a trade hub for a multitude of reasons (Caldari initially - and probably still - being the most popular race, it being an agent hub for low level agents, its map positioning, etc, etc) Even if you now removed all those reasons it woul...

20. A question to newcomers : what's up with the mining-as-income thing ? - in EVE New Citizens Q&A [original thread]
Id go even further than the OP... At the risk of ****ing off the miners here, I think new players pre-occupation with mining ruins the game for many of them. For some reason (Bad guides/bad advice/etc) many new people assume that mining is the m...
