2 words.: masocists deligt
reason: the commen mantra of eve is risk vs rewards which translate into punishment, punishment, punishment, reward.

What I was going to say, although it doesn't convey the complexities and atmosphere of EVE. Best case scenario, I'd have that copy of PC gamer which introduced me to EVE. I'll say it, without Istvaan Shogaatsu, I probably wouldn't have played EVE.

Simple.
Keep CCP's "The Butterfly Effect" video open in another screen. Someone inquires as to what you are playing, toss them that way and keep playing.

When an Excel programmer read Atlas Shrugged.
Good read, though I skimmed over the 60-page John Galt monologue (yes, that was pretty much the core of the book; however, people with the patience to read a novel that size probably get the message without the author having to explicitly write the message. Bad stylistic decision, and after reading the first few pages of the monologue, I wasn't going to punish myself by reading the rest of it. It still took me at least half an hour to skim read the thing).

EVE is a massively multiplayer online game. There is only one server unlike other MMO (massively online game) and at every time of the day at least 25 thousands pilots are logged in. There is a deep economy and controls are not really instinctive. In short; Its hard to grasp. But anyway, its the best game for someone that dont want to invest real time in it, since you character improve while you are offline. Combat is very slow and not very deep... Think of it as a strategy game where you control only one unit.
Thats about it.
It take 15 seconds to say that... and resume it quite well, imo. 
Good luck!

It's a really complex space combat MMO with a fairly deep player-run economy.
Bingo bango bongo.
If you want to add a little persuasion in there say, "I like it a lot."

You could say...
Eve is a subtle blend of sex, violence, and electo-shock therapy... strangely reminicient of the reprogramming scene from A Clockwork Orange.
... but you are probably better off showing them the Butterfly Effect movie.

"So this is EVE, a galaxy filled with socially inept spreadsheet nerds on the one hand and obsessive, ambitious griefers on the other. Resources are limited and must be fought over, and the only way out is to quit entirely."

Totally Captivating, Open Ended, Complex, Enjoyable, Irritating as Hell.
In that order.
I've "quit" EVE three times. The first aspect keeps me coming back.

This is how I sum up EVE: frustratingly fun
The frustrating part: It seems that it can take far too long to get anything done -- flying around buying modules, fitting a ship, getting to where you have to be, finding decent pvp, salvaging, all the session change stuff (docking, switching ships once docked, undocking, etc). Too much time waiting.
The fun part: Shooting stuff . And the rewarding feeling of winning a fight or finishing a mission and collecting all the bounties/rewards/loot/salvage.

EVE is like having sex standing up with a circus midget. Insanely difficult, everyone will think you're a wierdo. But if you enjoy it..... hey! go for it!

WoW in space, sans charm and with added brutality. Badly done futuristic fantasy (WoW has more realistic physics, for heavens sake! 8-} ) Sorry, but having played EVE for quite a while, it was a huge disappointment, only the social side kept me in the game after the first few months. Then again, I was expecting an SF game and hoping for interesting combat (I'm a 'hardcore' SF fan, with much experience of historical wargaming). If you don't approach EVE with the expectations I had, then maybe you'll enjoy it more. Ultimately, the game is what it is, and if that happens to ring your bell, then great, go have fun playing it - each to their own, etc. My main criticism of the game as it is is that the UI is almost entirely a frustrating pile of rubbish, and CCP would be well advised to sort out the UI before they put effort into anything else at all. That I don't actually like the game as it is is (poor game balance IMO, too unrealistic physics/physically, game mechanics that make it feel like you're in an interconnected series of broom cupboards instead of a huge 5,000 star cluster) just means that there's a mismatch between what I want from a game and what this game provides. Clearly a lot of people do find it a lot of fun, and stuff that doesn't harm others and make people smile is A Good Thing in my book. Best thing is - give it go, do a 14 day free trial, preferably aided by an already experienced player.
I cannot agree with the original poster regarding depth of game or the complexity though - EVE lacked sufficient depth for me, and whilst it's intricate, I wouldn't say it's particularly more so than other games I've played.

Does anyone know of the tabletop rpg game/book called paranoia?? its hilarious and exactly like eve in a way.
In Paranoia you live in a future society run by a computer. The 3 basic tenets of life are
Trust noone.
always keep your laser pistol handy.
the computer is your friend.
I recomend the book (if you can find it) Paranoia(title deleted for security reasons)
I wont go into teh book, but it is ****ing hilarious really.
But the rpg game let me tell you. Your team plays a group of trouble shooters who basically try to help teh computer catch commies,mutants and traitors.
Then when you start the game you get a mutant ability and you are part of a secret society. So you know your friends are all traitors and mutants. You basically go around screwing everyone over everyone as hard and as often as possible.good laughs.
ahem
</threadjack>
Eve is like paranoia, only in space and you dont have to pass secret notes to the gm saying you electrocute the first person at the table who uses a device powered by electricity.

It's a spaceship mmo, it has good pvp and pve and the entire market is player controlled which is cool. Its not an easy game though and there is alot of depth. Then you sell them a gtc.
You sound like an arrogant **** and I won't be surprised if your business closes soon. Also playing whilst at work?
