I thought we could have a thread with a big list for the rookie pilots to see all the things they need to know as a rookie. Or at least a couple major highlights and pointers. and hey, maybe so me of you veterans might learn something too.
1. Dont fly what you cant afford to lose. 2. Dont blame the game for you wandering into lowsec on your trial account and getting popped 3. Dont AFK autopilot unless you know you are not traveling through lowsec 4. Dont expect to do anything epic within your first few months. 5. Get in a corp ASAP, solo-ing as a newbie is what will make you hate EVE. 6. DONT FLY ANYTHING YOU CANT AFFORD TO LOSE! 7. Keep your clone up-to-date 8. If someone steals your jet-canned ore, dont engage them. they are baiting you. 9. DO ALL THE TUTORIALS! 10. Then do them again...
you guys add to it. _____________________ *warp drive acti...wait, where are we going?*

I think that explaining why certain advice is given would be more helpful than randomly writing some "don't"s (and yes, "don't" does include and apostrophe).

Akita T almost beat me to it, but: read the stickies. The stickies includes Akita T's post, a bunch of guides on how to get started in various careers, information on tanking, etc.
In fact, petition for "READ THE STICKIES" to be made MOTD along with "Daily maintenance between 11:00 and 12:00 GMT".

.
#5 is total BS. This game is eminently satisfying and challenging for the lone-wolf style of play. If and when you decide on joining a corp, do it on your terms. Not because someone says Eve is too big and bad for noobs to figure it out solo.

Agreed. Been playing for a year and a half solo, tried the odd corp here and there but it's not my thing. In before 'Why are you playing an MMO then?' Because I like to shoot real players rather than npc's.
