Captain Tardbar State Protectorate	Posted - 2009.11.10 15:14:00 - [1] -scene- My bedroom. This morning. Alarm clock goes off I roll over and take a look at Capsuleer on the iPhone. I get up and go turn the computer on and start up EVE to queue up train. The girlfriend wakes up "What are you doing?" "I'm training" I reply. "Again? Is that all you do with that game?" (We've had this conversation before) "Pretty much lately. I can't fly the ships I want to right now so I need to make sure I'm not wasting any time not training." "Do you even play the game?" "No. Not really." "So its just like watching Dragon Ball Z?" "Hrm.... I'm not sure what you... OH MY GOD! IT ALL MAKES SENSE NOW!!!" Discuss.
Skex Relbore	Posted - 2009.11.10 15:23:00 - [2] Why not fly the ships you can fly while you wait for the stuff to train? That's what I'm doing. Run missions/rat/trade/mine/explore/join RVB do something fun or something to earn some isk to pay for that pretty ship your training to fly (or several of them so you can replace the ones that get blown up) If you don't want to do that then enjoy the fact that this is a game that you can actually progress in while doing something else.

Ashira Twilight	Posted - 2009.11.10 15:26:00 - [4] Eve is one of the reasons for my divorce, and the end of my last two relationships. I too, am pretty much just skilling and lurking around the forums now. In the end, I still say it's all been worth it. Now when I'm asked who I'm seeing, I say... "Her name is Eve." ---------------------------------------
Boomershoot Caldari Suddenly Ninjas	Posted - 2009.11.10 15:28:00 - [5] Skilled up pretty much anything, now i can fly whatever i want pretty happy with it :D ________________________________________ i'd gladly abuse [hr] if CCP implemented it ________________________________________
ExDad	Posted - 2009.11.10 15:35:00 - [6] Just a 700k SP sofar. And about500 MIL to go ;) Love not having to play so much. Just kicked another mmorpg addiction and there u had to grind alot as it was openended so no max skill levels.. Works fine for me. They should just up the newcomer 100% bonus to about 16 mil SP. even then u wont be able to make max use of a ship not to mention other skills would be neccesary aswell.. Anyway.. m2cents..
Nemiona Minmatar Fire Mandrill	Posted - 2009.11.10 15:40:00 - [7] well, no need for alarm clock anymore... at least not while youre sleeping... add a skill que ;) ------ The future, according to some scientists, will be exactly like the past, only far more expensive. John Sladek
snewerl Amarr Mercury Nation House of Mercury	Posted - 2009.11.10 15:42:00 - [8] Originally by: Captain Tardbar -scene- My bedroom. This morning. Alarm clock goes off (...) The girlfriend wakes up "What are you doing?" Discuss. So much writing just to say he was sleeping with his girlfriend
Lady Spank Amarr Sekret Kool Klubb	Posted - 2009.11.10 15:44:00 - [9] I don't know... I have all the isk I need, there is no need for me to grind anything in eve and yet I'm compelled to be logged in at any opportunity. Then again I'm not necessarily actively doing anything. But I can't watch a film on the computer without having eve on the other screen I've never managed to watch more than 5 minutes of Dragonball Z so I can't draw any comparisons there. I assume you are implying nothing happens and you are wasting your life away. I'm not showing off its not that much... just enough to enjoy a carefree pvp / exploration lifestyle and subscribe by plex. The quality of my replies is directly related to the QQuality of the opÆs comments

Rordan D'Kherr Amarr	Posted - 2009.11.10 16:15:00 - [11] -scene 2- Your bedroom. yesterday morning. Alarm clock goes off You roll over and take a look at WOWMAGAZINEFORMOBILEDEVICES.COM on the iPhone. You get up and go turn the computer on and start up WoW to grind endless amounds of monsters to level up. The girlfriend wakes up "What are you doing?" "I'm training" you reply. "Again? Is that all you do with that game?" (We've had this conversation before) "Pretty much. I need to kill 1,736,029 monsters to get level 64 right now so I need to make sure I'm not wasting any time that I've paid for." "Do you even enjoy the game or just grind?" "Ummm...." "So its just like watching the same episode of Dragon Ball Z over and over again?" "Hrm.... I'm not sure what you... OH MY GOD! IT ALL MAKES SENSE NOW!!!" Discuss.
Captain Tardbar State Protectorate	Posted - 2009.11.10 16:18:00 - [12] Originally by: Lady Spank I've never managed to watch more than 5 minutes of Dragonball Z so I can't draw any comparisons there. I assume you are implying nothing happens and you are wasting your life away. To be fair... I've had the same conversation with her about when I tried to get her to watch Dragon Ball Z: - Her: What is this crap? We've watched 5 episodes all and they do is train and then when the bad guy comes they defeat him in one episode and then have like 20 more episodes training for the even stronger badguy that just showed up! They beat him and go back to training AGAIN! I read the damn wikia on it and its pretty much the same damn thing for all 100 seasons! Me: So... Wanna watch Naruto? Her: punches me in the face - So yeah... It never occurred to me all that I do is train to fly bigger and bigger ships never satisfied with my current ones.
SlayerOfArgus Gallente The Industrial Federation	Posted - 2009.11.10 16:19:00 - [13] At the very least get a good cheap ship that you can fly semi-well and go cause some havoc in low sec
Jint Hikaru OffWorld Exploration Inc	Posted - 2009.11.10 16:35:00 - [14] Eve is not about just flying the Best'ist and Most OMGUBER Ships. There is SO much you can do in the low skillpoint game. The OP just proved that you CAN play a sandbox game wrong! ------------------------ Jint Hikaru - Miner / Salvager / Explorer "I've got a couple of Strippers on my ship... and they just love to dance!" ------------------------
Lady Spank Amarr Sekret Kool Klubb	Posted - 2009.11.10 16:44:00 - [15] Originally by: Captain Tardbar So yeah... It never occurred to me all that I do is train to fly bigger and bigger ships never satisfied with my current ones. OK I remember someone explained Dragonball like that to me a long time ago. Also: I seem to have the opposite problem. I have a 60m sp char, maxed support across the board and maxed out on most Gallente and various Amarr / Minamtar ships but prefer using this char to fly around in frigs with barely maxed anything. 60m char gets ignored in favour of that... hmmm. I think I have a problem. The quality of my replies is directly related to the QQuality of the opÆs comments

Dretzle Omega Caldari Caldari Navy Volunteer Task Force	Posted - 2009.11.10 17:17:00 - [18] What the heck are you setting the alarm clock to train any more? We have a skill Q now! Use it and you can do your training setup at any time of the day you choose. So this must be a fail troll that you forgot to update.

We have a skill Q now! Use it and you can do your training setup at any time of the day you choose. So this must be a fail troll that you forgot to update. I had the ability to inject a few skills that just became available before I went to work. You still have to alarm clock that because you can't pre-train and queue up skills that you don't have pre-requisites for. Otherwise... I'd say you are right.

Sidrat Flush Caldari Life is Experience New Eden Hardware Emporium	Posted - 2009.11.10 17:46:00 - [24] You do know you can train something else in the meantime IF you can't add what you need to the train queue. And then when you ARE on line at your own reasonable hour rejig your skill queue then. Sure you main train a few hours of a level 4 or 5 skill that you don't actually want just yet at this very month - however you are still making headway for the future. Or - What do you have against the colour Yellow? Does it not have feelings too? Eve-online Industrial Organiser thread full batch manufacturing

Komen Gallente Aliastra	Posted - 2009.11.12 03:05:00 - [39] I'm a five year plus player/character, and for the most part in PvP I fly smaller stuff - hac, frig, ceptor, AFs. The occasional command ship. I'll fly BS if that's what the op requires, but I much prefer smaller faster zippy stuff. Also, +1 to PvP shakes.
