What exactly am i supposed to do in this game?
Now seriously, what has happened in this 1 year i've been away.
Seeking for some pvp I went to roam through 6 regions within 4 hours today, the fist solo roam for more than a year of a eve-break. And I did .... well I had... no fun at all.
Crossed more than 100 systems and found exactly 16 people in local chat (all together). Crossed low-sec, crossed delve, period basis, querious, catch, stain and teneriffis and found nothing interesting there.
Went into wormhole space with a Vagabond and a probe launcher and found grav sides and people logging off as soon as they see a probe on the scanner.
What is the point of this game? Sims online? build, get rich, get richer, build more, get super rich build cities?
Don't understand me wrong, this is not a question neither a critique.
Remembering 2004 and 2005 when eve used to be max 5000 players online in the same time in a 30% smaller universe. You went to low sec and you found people with guns. you went to 0.0 and you found people with bigger guns. But tonight I found nothing at all (with more tha 30000 people online).
No replies neede, I don't want to read what you think and I don't care what you think. Just go try to find some action and you will understand what I mean.

I have, and I've had a completely different experience from you.
If you wander aimlessly there is a good chance you won't find anyone.
Check the galaxy map, and look for systems that have a lot of activity in the past hour. I've had no problem finding people in 0.0 doing that.
If you just want a quick low sec brawl, head to Amamake. There are a bunch of pirates and faction warfare pilots all looking for a fight.
If you have a small gang, head to Rancer. You almost always guaranteed a fight from one of the multiple pirate alliances who are in the area. Rancer isn't really a good solo area though.
In short: you fail and didn't try hard enough.

I live in Venal and I dont even have to leave my home system to shoot people. Yes, I was able to get a BS out of Delve the other day because there's nothing there. I guess it's the best place to rat at the moment.

3 little words - OLD MAN STAR!
Or, as the previous poster wisely suggested, RvB, without doubt the most fun you can have in a frigate or even a noob ship

I've had similar issues to the OP. Spent time roaming around the Old Man Star area and found nothing.

if you can't find anyone in lowsec or 0.0 to shoot your obviously not doin' it rite.
Use in game map and check out # of pilots in space, number of jumps, number of ships killed etc... and head towards it.
Problem solved.

It might simply be time zone related. During my play time a big chunk of the player base (namely the US players) is asleep or at work, and many of the really interesting fights happen at 3am my time. It's worst when I have a day off and fly around in my mornings.
RvB is a decent suggestion I guess, or join FW - but I see precious little FW pilots around who are willing to engage without massive blobbage. In RvB people sign up just to see explosions so chances are much higher to find a target.

This holds true for the whole of EVE, not just FW, sadly. I've been trying hard to go solo lately, and I do end of finding and engagement, eventually, but it's always anywhere from me vs. 5 to me vs. 15-20. Tough luck, I know.

This does sound more and more tempting.

It's even better in reality. Undock, shoot. Repeat as soon as agression wears off. :P
Lopsided fights do happen sometimes but both sides try to minimize them, people will downship if they have a clear numbers advantage etc. Also 1 v many is available if you like to see how many you can take with you, soloing and honoured 1v1's... As well as purple ops against 3rd party wardeccers and sometimes the rest of the EVE world! :P

Seeking for some rattingI went to roam through 6 regions within 4 hours today, the fist solo roam for more than a year of a eve-break. And I did .... well I had... no fun at all.
Crossed more than 100 systems and found exactly 1600 people in local chat (all together). Crossed low-sec, crossed delve, period basis, querious, catch, stain and teneriffis and lots of blobs everywhere.
Went into wormhole space with a Vagabond and a probe launcher and found grav sides and people blobbed me as soon as they see a probe on the scanner.
What is the point of this game? Gank-online, blob warfare on-line?
Don't understand me wrong, this is not a question neither a critique.
Remembering 2004 and 2005 when eve used to be max 5000 players online in the same time in a 30% smaller universe. You went to low sec and you found plenty of places to rat in peace. you went to 0.0 and you found plenty of peaceful places with bigger rats. But tonight I found nothing but gankfests, gate camps, and blobs (with more tha 30000 people online).

I can't help but think this is the case of too many people wanting to be predators and too few people wanting to be prey.
I'm sure, for example, if you decided to mine those grav sites in wormhole space or in low sec with a mining barge and didn't log off when the probes came out you'd find plenty of action :D
