Welcome back :)
i would hesitate on destroying your already created pod pilots. you mentioned one has a destroyer , this gives you a leg up over a freshly started pilot. but if you do want a fresh start i guess now is the perfect time since CCP is gifting a whole slew of implants that should make training skills go quicker.
If your seriously considering mining then look up a good mining corp or even a bad one either way it will beat mining solo .
look into eve uni or agony unleashed for some excellent eve training.
also jumping into the story arc missions is a good way to get into the game . im not sure how well they scale with a new player how ever .
another great thing in eve is the exploration route training the exploration skills can give you some diversity and can play in to mining, PvE, and or PvP depending on how you use it .
an over all guide line would be buff up your core skills by following the certification menu. Get some training by either agony or eve uni, earn a good sum of isk by either mining, missioning, or through exploration . after that is all accomplished im sure you will have several opportunities for some quite interesting adventures |

Can't speak for E-uni. But then, you don't need a regimented corporation to learn the game again. In fact you can learn the game fairly well in a NPC corp assuming you're able to associate with people who genuinely want to help you and are capable of giving you good advice.
WIth that said....a good corp can catapult your learning processes to soaring heights. How to find that corp.....that's the conundrum. So, don't feel pressured to corp hop. In fact, you'll have a hard time getting a good corp if you have lots of short term employment history.
The best advice I can give you is ask people about the different game play within the Eve-verse, follow the ones that appeal to you. For me it was mining > missioning > ninja looting/salvaging > missioning > w-space! I came into the game wanting to mine with dreams of grandeur. I met a mentor, he talked me into missioning. Missioning was a bit slow so after hearing people talking about ninja salvaging I did that and took it to its absolutely limits of income potential. It was fun. I mixed in some mission running, got bored with that then formed up with a friend I had met from ninjaing his mission site ;) We went to w-space together and although we're no longer co-venturing, are still in w-space and still good friends. I would trust him with my Eve-life.
W-space is my end-game. That's really what you're attempting to find in Eve.....your end-game.
As for restarting your character? There is absolutely NO reason to do so in Eve. In fact, it's a waste of your time.
So, hope this helps. Feel free to eve-mail me in game with questions.

I got a lot of help by joining Militia...due to spies, they aren't a trusting lot, but Gall Militia is free with helping new players by answering questions and giving general advice; they even offer PvP training, just may not bring you along with them until you prove yourself...only problem with that is it limits space you can safely travel too, and you are pretty much constantly Wardec'd so you need to be constantly on guard...but if you are playing to fight, that shouldn't be a problem anyway...
As for skills, if you are going to be fighting, can't go wrong with focusing on your core skills and the the skills for the Frigs/destroyers you will be starting out in...and the role you plan to play as a pilot (so if linebacker, focus on skills like Propulsion Jamming)... |

eve uni is still around and a good group to join. as for goons they only scam people with something worth scamming; a new character wouldnt have the 500m application fee lol.
both have good teachers and tutorials as they handle ALOT of new players constantly, EVE-uni will be in highsec with occasional low/null roams. Goons will be in nullsec with player owned systems/stations and fight in massive battles, and jita. its hard to say which you will like more as you dont seem to know what you want to do in eve, but either would be much better than trying to learn the game alone. |
