Thea Arsoniztik Red Tides Viewer Discretion Advised	Posted - 2009.06.15 05:15:00 - [31] Quit because you don't like pirates? Go play WoW. Your theory is ridiculous.
John Grimm Amarr Rendili StarDrive Yards	Posted - 2009.06.15 05:55:00 - [32] Originally by: Derus Grobb At what stage of this progression do paragraphs come into use? This question intrigues me. OP, I would like it answered.
Haks'he Lirky Durgarnir	Posted - 2009.06.15 08:59:00 - [33] Originally by: Dapto Honestly i dont care what you all think, no i didnt get ganked, yes i was part of a large alliance and yes this game gets very ordinary after a year with everything your training over 7-8 days minimum. OH well ccp can do without my 500usd a year and id say im not the first to quit at this stage of playing eve and wont be the last. HAHAHAHHA and why are you posting on the forums if you do not care? Leave silently or not at all, you will show up as green in my address book in a few months time.
Dapto Minmatar Dissolution Of Eternity	Posted - 2009.06.15 09:16:00 - [34] why are you all posting if its a boring old thread. Thea most of my ingame friends are now pirates so that comment just doesnt fit. John you questions not worth answering unlike you i presume i run multiple accounts (CEO,Director,Alliance Executor in most) and do not have time for nuances of grammer. Haks for sure mate put me green if im around and if you ever want to visit me ill be hanging out in Decon or Fountain, If you just convo me feel free, but if you want to try and kill ill make sure you get a nice reception.
El Liptonez	Posted - 2009.06.15 09:25:00 - [35] This guy simply won eve.
Doomed Predator The Graduates Morsus Mihi	Posted - 2009.06.15 09:28:00 - [36] Originally by: El Liptonez This guy simply won eve. Nope, he would have won if he had mastered paragraphs, but alas. Now, can I have your stuff? The 'Fendahlian Collective' strikes again

OH well ccp can do without my 500usd a year and id say im not the first to quit at this stage of playing eve and wont be the last. Ah, here is the issue. You are one of the the ADHD teens that hates anything that takes too long. I guess having to think ahead more than a few days makes it feel painful. I'd guess you are perhaps even over 18 as you have successfully proceeded past the first kid-filter of EVE - the skills that take more than a day to train ("WTFOMG what you mean if I train this skill it won't be done tomorrow when I play after school? THIS SUX"). It is a nice "filter" to get out most of the kids and other bad players that you need to make long term training plans and wait months before you can fly caps and other fancy ships. For older players, thinking ahead 3 months or 6 months is no big deal - you just do what you can do today and plan ahead so you can do what you want in the future. For kids, a week is like an eternity. It has something to do with age - older you get, your perception of time changes. Kids want instant gratification and lesser games try hard to give it to them (see: World of Warcraft and free purplez for bad players) I can recall myself going nuts on having to wait for some game or movie or something that wasn't going to come out for another 6 or 9 months when I was a teen (over ten years ago). Now it's like "ah well, something to look forward to in 6 or 9 months whenever those slowpokes manage to get it out". At the same time I've lost the urge to get a game on the day of release or to see the movie on the day of release. Why hurry? It'll still be there in a week or two. Good luck to you. May you grow older and wiser, and perhaps return to EVE when you are more mature.

The reason i've come this far is I say it as i see it and hold back on words. BTW my company sets up national and international entertainment events. We do things from Dance party's, Folk festivals, Big Day Outs, to the big international rock concerts.

We do things from Dance party's, Folk festivals, Big Day Outs, to the big international rock concerts. So it would only take your company 7-8 days (or less, seeing as you think this is a long time) to be ready to compete in a new market? For instance supplying machine tools? Hydrological Surveying? Could you be up and running with a hydrological surveying department in a week?

OH well ccp can do without my 500usd a year and id say im not the first to quit at this stage of playing eve and wont be the last. You do know that you can do stuff whilst skills train up? You don't have to stay docked for 7-8 days watching the skills progress bar on your character sheet
Dapto Minmatar Dissolution Of Eternity	Posted - 2009.06.15 11:35:00 - [44] YES I know matt ive 23mil sp on this character more on others. But missions are boring even the lvl5's. I can do lvl'4 in a T2 fitted hurricane ive done 9/10 cosmos site 0.0 worm holes etc. But I have realised there's one thing I havnt done that might be interesting becoming a War Dec'n Empire Merc Corp. Worth a go im thinkng. Dapto

Worth a go im thinkng. So you've done everything in a PvP game...Except the PvP part... I think i've spotted your problem. Originally by: Dirk Magnum I've become gay for Mark Harmon despite my initial reservations about the show NCIS but nobody will ever know
Dapto Minmatar Dissolution Of Eternity	Posted - 2009.06.15 11:41:00 - [46] Oh ive pvp'd just not on this character, initially it wasnt what i wanted to do. Dapto
Helix Cann	Posted - 2009.06.15 11:52:00 - [47] Oh glorious master Dapto, I am but a humble noob with one single request before you join the great biomass dumpster in the sky. Could I haz you stuff? I promise to take care of it and share it with all my corp mates, most who are noobs except for the leadership. It would greatly help us in our endeavors next month, when our leaders plan to take us all out to practice pvp.
Dapto Minmatar Dissolution Of Eternity	Posted - 2009.06.15 11:58:00 - [48] Hows NO Helix though Soulforge, Night Bringer, King Rothgar , Me and the rest of the clan are willing to war dec you so you can get that practice
Whitehound	Posted - 2009.06.15 12:15:00 - [49] Originally by: Dapto ... So the only thing left is to become a -10 pirate and start griefing pod pilots hopefully out of the game ... You want to grief players out of the game ... I suggest you play the Sims. With some luck will it teach you how to interact with others.

Corwain	Posted - 2009.06.15 12:52:00 - [52] For me I joined the game and started off running trade goods through losec right off the bat. This was back when instas were the rage and it paid to make instas for your route, also this was back when solo sniping Tempests were THE pirate ship in losec. I learned how to survive, albeit slowly. I learned how to avoid the pirates pretty well. After a few weeks I was convoed by a couple month old character who wanted me to join his corp. It was a mining corp so I trained Mining IV and came along on some corp ops. After a week or two that guy quit and myself and 2 other members took over the corp. We were approached by a 0.0 corp that was trying to form an alliance and was desperate enough for members that they'd take just about anyone. They collected quite a few corps. So we moved out to good ol' Geminate. Our first taste of 0.0. We learned a lot but fighting wasn't really one of those things. After a few months SmashKill decided to steamroll us. It was fun fighting in 0.0 for the first time. Around this same time myself and another member of our corp first tried losec piracy and fell in love. Within a few days we were were below -5 and quickly had to learn how to build hauling alts. This was around when I started FRAPsing stuff and picking fights and filming them took up a lot of my time. This was when I built my first alt for piracy. Within a week he was ready for a full T1 fit Nos-Vexor (pre nerf nos) and I took him on a long trip through Genesis losec. I ran into 2 multi-year old flashies in assault frigs and killed one of the two before I popping myself. So basically I just roamed losec with both my characters picking fights with whoever would fight. One memorable night I was roaming losec as usual with a friend. I was in a Myrm and he was in a Celestis (with pre-nerf damps). We both jumped through a gate to see a Reikoku Astarte on the gate...so my friend decloaks and sure enough the Astarte attacks drawing gate fire (for some reason at this point my friend wasn't flashy.) A quick tackle and nossing (and 5 Ogre IIs) and 30 seconds later he was down. Somewhere along the line I did learn mission running...but really that was just an easy way to make ISK when times are tough, and it's certainly not the only way. Really, you don't "hone your skills" running missions, they're pathetically easy. Half the time I'd be surfing the web and check on EVE every couple minutes to change targets. So yeah, everybody's path is different and everyone will find something different to enjoy about EVE. My suggestion is to free your mind of such ideas as "greifing" and "grinding" and realize it's a game and the point is to enjoy yourself. Then get out there and enjoy yourself without worrying so much about yours and everyone's "feelings." Row, row, row your ship gently up the stream Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily, EVE is just a dream

We do things from Dance party's, Folk festivals, Big Day Outs, to the big international rock concerts. Damn I missed the boat. Everyone else in EVE is a company director with a nice car and a house and a fit gf and pots of irl cash. I must be the only unemployed, morbidly obese neckbeard living in mummy's attic (no basement alas) on a diet of fizy drinks and microwave popcorn in the entire game. I feel ever so lonely now. ___________________________________________________ The game will never be over, because we're keeping the meme alive.
BiggestT Caldari Oz Space Diggers	Posted - 2009.06.29 18:15:00 - [57] Originally by: Dapto Mate ive been an active pod pilot for 15months now and I said i only ran missions for 8-9months ive lived in 0.0 (6 months) done low sec roams, orgainsed lvl5 and 6/10 and above cosmos complexes w-h exploration, i've an alt that makes t2 ships and mods so dont tell me my path has been narrow. Great so you've done what, 10% that there is to do in EVE? And of what you did, besides missioning, you didn't stick at any of it for very long. And no, your OP is wrong, I was in 0.0 in my first 2 weeks (was fun mining and running from rougue drones in an osprey lol, only pvp'ed a few times in the early days). EVE history t2 precisions
