When I get bored of EVE I just increase my EVE-O postcount instead of logging in.

I have never quit. My reasons for coming back would be the same as what is keeping me here which is why I have not quit. By all means I take breaks, but I have never stopped my subscription on either of my accounts.
Also, you keep quitting because you are WEAK and pathetic

In C/C++ only function declarations are terminated by a semicolon. Function definitions are NOT terminated by a semicolon. Somewhat confusing when struct and class definitions ARE terminated by a semicolon, though.
Also, using the [code] tags allows you to preserve whitespacing (and forces a monospaced font).
Sorry, some of us are a little bit too obsessed. ----------

Edited by: BeholdMyCreation on 14/04/2010 19:10:44 What keeps pulling me back?
The potential for so so much fun. So many things to do.
What scares me off each time? Realising that most of it is in 0.0 and i simply can't be online enough each week to keep from getting kicked from the 0.0 alliances. The only people who can thrive in eve are those with no life outside of it, and that prevents me from properly enjoying the game.

I havent really quit altogether, I keep my main account active. But im really not on all that much, I dont have lots of time to dedicate to the game, and the free time that i do have usually involves being interrupted every so often.
I would like to play more but it seems to take too long just to have fun in the game anymore, I like pvp but ccp doesnt want me to pvp casually. And I usually dont have time to wait around to get a gang going, and even if i do get into a gang alot of the time i end up having to log somewhere in space.
I guess im just waiting for ccp to bring some casual pvp options into the game Support chat filters in eve |

I think I'd prefer the Objective-C variant.
int main() { NSGame *newGame = [[NSGame alloc] initWithGame: @"EVE Online"];
// Load EVE Core [newGame initializeSpace]; [newGame disableDeepSafeNerf]; // DEV ONLY! Lock Threads of people talking about this call - CCP Zymurgist [newGame initializeHighSec withNPC: @"CONCORD"]; [newGame initializeLowSec withNPC: nil]; [newGame initializeZeroSec withNPC: nil]; [newGame loadCelestials]; // Stations, Roids, Planets, Moons [newGame initStargateNetwork]; [newGame createRandomWormholes startMass: 1000000 endMass: 1000000000 withMaxLifetime: 4]; // Min and Max KG a wormhole can carry in lifespan, and max lifespan in days
[newGame getCurrentLoggedInChar];
[newGame startAura]; [newGame renderEnvironment];
while ([newGame userHasQuit] == NO) { [newGame renderEnvironment]; // Renders, well, everything }
return 0;
}

Originally by: Grayclay We were chatting in the Blueprints channel just now, and the idea of how many times each of us has quit and rejoined EvE has come up. Everyone has left it at least once, and most people have left a couple of times.
Wrong. I've been playing constantly since I first started. I even have gone from one account to four. Anything else you care to be completely wrong about?

Looks like the trolls are having to search for stuff to flame now...
Dude, calm down and go take a Midol. We all know that not everybody has quit - I mean, I haven't quit the game before either - but if you'll look at what you just responded to, it's not exactly a hostile statement. It could also be interpreted to pertain only to those with whom he was chatting in the Blueprints channel. Congratulations on playing consistently and on being able to play 4 accounts, we're very proud of you. Couldn't you just point that out in a friendly, positive way and be done with it? Honestly... back under the bridge with you if you can't behave like a rational human being...

Pretty much this, kinda sad that it won't change for the next 2 expansions at least.

I took a pretty long one: (on different accounts though)
Something like:
2003/8 - 2004/2
~ five and a half year break ~
2009/7 - Present
In that break I played the following mmorpgs: WoW, GW, AoC, WAR, Lotro, and recently while still subbed to EVE; Fallen Earth. All, apart from WoW, I didn't play longer than 4 months. The fact that I am back and not nearly bored yet says a lot in my eyes.
Things that annoyed me in some other mmorpgs compared to EVE:
- Lack of freedom to engage in pvp where and when you want; too many restrictions in most games, even on pvp servers. - No perpetual worlds / instanced copies of public zones. - Shallow alternative gameplay options / variety of choice.
Things that annoy me somewhat in EVE compared to most other mmorpgs:
- Time subscribed being directly related to SP (Does make it casual friendly, however) - Lack of immersion due to having only a static portrait and being a generic spaceship instead of having a more customizable visual identity.

Ive quit a few times.
One was in the first year. The game only offered a few viable play options at the time and it really wasnt good enough.
Another was after the T20 incident. Not firing that cheater led me to really disrespect the Devs. To be honest I never got over that and still assume you cant trust CCP to be fair or honest.
Wherever you went - Here you are.

Before CCP removed the ability to train skills while your account was inactive, i used to take a week (ish) off every couple or so months, just to sit back and chill out knowing i wasn't paying but my skill was training away, and when i came back i was full of energy and determination and it was like playing the game all over again, now though, i cant do that, and i rarely play, i'm quite board of eve, but i still go on it, i would just love to take breaks like i used too and my skills would still train.
But besides that, no, never left eve :p --------------------------------------------

i did ghost training too..cybernetics 5 cruiser 5 medium energy turrets 5 and almost did amarr bs 5 but ccp nerfed ghost training. so bs is really at 4.25 just finished maxing out per and will so now its all one for 12-24 months of guns/ships/missile skilling.

Looking at it tho we're going to be happy that you did 
Myself I quit once for 2 months after an irritating stint in FW came back for a year(ish) and now just recently, decided i was so sick of all the "baggage" my mains had collected, I bio massed all three of them and started over. It's actually quite liberating and the wait for learning skills has forced me to investigate stuff i never would have before such as the market. Altho they still need to get rid of those damn things TBQFH, new player experience is crappy with them still in effect.

I took a 6 month break at the end of 2006 and beginning of 2007, because I didn't have a job and couldn't afford to keep paying. _________________________________ ## You got that? Right I'll be back in approximately 300 seconds to retort! ## |

I've taken several breaks, but I've stayed subscribed, so I wouldn't say I've ever "quit".

Nope, never quit. Though there are times I don't log in in a few days.
However I'll admit to having tried to zoom on more than one occasion when watching an EVE video.

Coming up on 6 years and never stopped training skills, though I have gone for weeks at a time without undocking now and then if I'm just not feeling the urge.
One of those times would also be now, in fact my second account expires next week. *shrug*

I never quit eve, I just have the occasional can't be bothered phase, but I've never stopped training since I started in 2006, I'll log in to change skills, and log out again, but never actually quit.
I *could* quit eve, but I don't want to
