Well obviously I'd like your stuff. Not the isk, just the skills to access more of the game before I die of old age. But why not sell the character? Spend the cash to treat someone you care about irl.

Keep it. I have taken long breaks and come back to eve 3-4 times. I'm having more fun playing now than ever. Something may come out in an expansion in the future that makes you want to play again.

You will quite possibly regret giving it away after a while.

I would suggest keeping the character, just get rid of every penny you have and let the account die or even biomass the character. even do a scavenger hunt maybe ? with all your stuff. Goto a starter system and drop a 100m in every new players wallet.

You mean for real money? I'm pretty sure that's not allowed, so I'm not going to bother. :)

I also don't feel so good about having someone else represent this character, but if I ever try the game out again in the future, I would probably prefer to start from the beginning anyway (and just play casually).

I think what I might be doing is to give the character to E-Uni to do with as they please (most likely sell and use the ISK I would think) and give the 2 Bil to whoever writes the most interesting / convincing reply in this thread.

I know two people who sold their 3 similar to yours characters on Ebay, they gained about ú675

Once the EULA is no longer your concern, you don't need to abide by it. And ú675 buys you a lot of cake.

So I have been keeping an unused account for a very long time now, but I realized some time ago that I am not going to play actively any more, so I finally want to cancel it.

I am pretty sure though, that once I do that, I am not going to resubscribe again. So I've been thinking for a while now about how to leave properly, without having all the assets go to waste. There are about 2bil on the EVE Bank account, and this character has a bit over 30m skill points.

I am not in a corporation right now who I could donate the stuff to. Donating everything to an entity like EVE University is a possibility, but also a bit boring. If I give it away, I'd rather give it to someone or something to whom it really makes a difference. One thought I had was to sell the character and put everything on EVE Bank, just to see it grow in case I would ever want to try the game again. But since this is such a low possibility, this is also not very tempting.

So I guess what I am asking is, "who wants to have my stuff?" Any suggestions?

Whilst this is rather tempting, I neither feel like breaking the EULA (as I have no quarrels with CCP), nor some random auction winner to represent this character. It's amazing how much people pay for a character though. I always thought that the slow progression is half the fun.

Before you quit EVE you must ask yourself some questions.

Am I quitting because of a woman? If so proceed to Step 3
Am I quitting because of a real life responsibility? If so proceed to Step 3
Am I quitting because of lack of money? If so proceed to Step 2
Am I quitting because I am bored of EVE? If so proceed to Step 1
Am I quitting because I got pwned in EVE? If so proceed to Step 1

Step 1: Join a club, like 4-H. Realize how much RL activities suck.
Step 2: Steal some money. If you don't go to jail, you will have lots of money for EVE subscriptions and food.
Step 3: Smack whatever is getting in your way of playing EVE in the face.
Step 4: Continue playing EVE.
Step 5: ???
Step 6: SUCCESS!!!

The Story of Zrrgablart!

Long tim ago, near the rim of the starsystem Airkio, there was a single asteroid orbiting a single secure cargo container left by a single miner, whom had forgotten to bookmark the spot. On that asteroid lived a primal oozling named Zrrrgablart. Zrrgablart wasn't much of a lifeform by science standards, but even at his relatively early age, Zrrgablart knew things. He knew that he was the only oozling on his world, possibly the whole existence. He also knew that his god, which he named "Oh Great Bleeping One", was out there, watching over him vigilantly.

Zrrgablarts life was most the time pretty uneventful, but in no way boring or sad. He made up names for all the things he saw fly by his world, great ships of metal that he knew belonged to the Ancient Ones, whom had left his world a long time ago. There were the Golden Ones, majestic beings that colored the sky with all the colors of the oozblorg. He would have called it a rainbow, but with the lack of water, rainbows were a rare sight on lone asteroids.

There were the Gray Ones, who he believed were the original bringers of his god "The Great Bleeping One". They fired long things into space, that made his primal ooze of a heart leap every time they exploded in thousands of colors. There also were the Green Ones, which were accompanied by lesser beings. Zrrgablart didn't have any real opinion on them, as they mostly seemed to sit around while the lesser beings did things. Philosophical he thought, without knowing what it meant.

On occasion, the Red Ones came too. Zrrgablart didn't like the Red Ones, not one bit. They brought with them destruction to his world. He hadn't done anything to deserve it, but they shot fire at him anyway. Luckily for him, he had avoided any major damage, but he still kept an eye out for the brown speckles of rust for they brought with them the Red Ones.

No, Zrrgablart wasn't bored, or sad, but he was lonely. For eons he had sat there, watching the Universe turn, wishing he had someone to admire these things with. On a late friday, just after the third cycle of The Great Bleeping One, his wish was granted.

Zrrgablart spotted a tiny speckle in the distance, glimmering in the sky and barely visible. It got closer and closer until with a MIGHTY thud it landed on the asteroid. He sludged and grawled and oozed his way closer, not afraid, but cautious. There it was, if he had eyes he would have opened them wide and if he had a jaw, it would have dropped. A single shiny object, sticking out of the asteroids crust. It was an ISK. Single ISK that had fallen off a freighter during cargo loading. It had traveled lightyear after lightyear to get there, and it was on that day that Zrrgablart rejoiced. He had finally found a friend! No longer was he alone and he was content, by all his oozling standards.

Even today, if you find that lone asteroid, orbiting a single secure container, on the rim of Airkio and you squint your eyes just so, you can see a single ISK sticking out of the crust and a tiny oozling sitting besides it, looking up at you, the ancient one with admiration unmeasured by all the ISK in the Universe.

The end!

I think the urge to destroy your account completely in order to 'leave properly', only goes to show that deep down you know you will want to come back at some point, and you are trying to make this impossible. Like when you give up smoking and throw all the ashtrays out, or get rid of every wine glass in the house to show you mean business about kicking the booze. My opinion, don't make it impossible, but give yourself a challenge.

So keep the char, dont go for the biomass, but get rid of that 2B isk, so that if and when you do come back, you have to make an effort to get yourself solvent again. Right now you can probably do whatever you want without challenge, and that can get boring.

So how to do it. Eve University is a good thought, and could put a portion of that isk to good use, but if thats too boring, then go buy a few big expensive ships, fit them with goodies, and go head for trouble . Go out in a blaze of glory, drop some nice loots, and make some peoples day. You will get a few laughs im sure, and its more active than a few mindless clicks to donate isk about.

Whatever, you will be back

I got a project im currently trying to get isk for. Its a wormhole project where we are going to set a pos up in a WH.

Well if you give it to me, it goes to other people.

Atleast those who know, know that i've pretty much got 2 cents to my name while my "giving isk to peeps" counter has reached silly numbers.

I'm no chribba though, which should be your chosen "player entity".

He's always giving stuff away and hosting eve-files is no small feat either.

Though his need for more isk could be disputed

Best option is to store it away ust in case you do decide to return, you never know, no matter how it may seem now, how you'll feel in a year.

In any case, don't destroy your characters if anything else.

Good luck out there, fly safe and avoid the griefers, we'll keep a light on the porch

I would say sell the character for ISK, then distribute the ISK to newbies / random people / good replies in this thread, etc.

That way someone who wants / can use the character will use it, and a lot of people will otherwise get a present that may help them get started or get ahead or whatnot.

For me having fun means going out PvPing. Unlike many others i cant stand PvEing or mining. It wrecks what i think makes this game so fun. Paying to do something so repetitive sounds like paying you work to work.

My advice to you, no matter what you think now, don't delete the character, hold onto it. In eve, your character is your identity, even if I quit eve, I'd never sell or give away my character, its who I am. It'd be like giving away part of myself.

Give away your assets, it doesn't matte to who,I'd like it, but I doubt you'll send it to me. Honestly, I'd make a game of it, scatter giant secure cans full of stuff throughout the belts of eve, make riddles for the passwords, leave presents in starter systems, give away everything.

But then, before you leave, make sure you have a way to stay in touch with all the friends you've made, their worth more then all the isk in the world. Make sure that if you come back, that you'll have someone to support you, otherwise you'll just be lonely and quit again.

But keep the character, put it on ice, but keep it. You might want it someday.
Like Sheriff said, We'll leave the light on for you.
Fly safe.

Create contracts filled with goodies that require completely random items

for example all your isk for 20 units of angel dust

or a few bs's for some copies of the little pirate that could or pillaging 101


gives away heaps of stuff to people who are willing to go on a little treasure hunt and if you do ever come back you have some random crap that can make you feel like you've been around without ruining your starting from scratch feeling. Also keep your character for reasons in above post
