1. Tell me what you would do with the 21 billion isk I have in my wallet and assets.
21 billion isk would be lovely, I have finally after a long time convinced a few friends to start playing EVE and it would be nice to be able to help them get set up and pvping with me, as it is the pain of losing ships can be hard on a new player and id like to be able to soften the blow of their loses initially to keep their spirits up and hopefully blossom into a fun having EVE player. Not to claim i'm completely unselfish I still think id use it to fund some faction frig/cruisers to go cause carnage on unsuspecting players :P
2. Tell me about the dreams you have for yourself in eve that you are worried will never come true.
I don't have dreams of flying Motherships or Titans like alot of players, I was never into the capital thing, nor do I have dreams of flying really pimped ships. Isk isn't a factor in my EVE dreams, the people I fly with are. The thing I would want most is to be able to fly with all the friends and cool people that I have come to know over the years all together in one corp, EVE is about the community for me and the people that play it, this is the reason I play to have a laugh on comms with mates as we roll through 0.0 or lowsec dodging blobs and blowing up internet pixels.
3. Tell me about the biggest mistake you have made in this universe we call eve. What did you learn if anything?
Ive made a few mistakes such as not keeping my characters trained for years+ and missing out on SP, or making a corp with some friends who subsequently blow up some lowsec mission hub denizens, in the system that I happened to mission in and me foolishly thinking it would be ok to slowboat to the stations without facing their wrath. But the mistake that stands out the most would probably be a Vaga loss that I suffered a few years ago when I was a mean flashy, under criminal flag i warp to a station and tab out completely forgetting that i'm flagged and cant dock, come back 10 mins later to find myself in a pod by the station, with my deadspace/faction fitted vaga dead to sentries and the gear that survived robbed out of my can. That still brings a smile to my face when I think back, forgetfulness has lost me a few ships, another notable memory was when i was autopiloting in a raven through ammatar mandate space who don't like me and again i come back to my computer to find myself in a pod with npc's just having blown up my ship :P.
4. Give some sage advice for people who will be here long after my plot license is dead and gone and somebody else is using my face.
My only advice is to keep on truckin, EVE can give you lemons sometimes but just make some lemonade, shes a cruel mistress and you will hate her, but the friends you make and memories earned make it all worthwhile. Doubtless there is an end to all things and one day it will be your time to hang up your pod for good, but until that day don't ragequit, because amongst all the **** theres the nuggets of awesome that will stick with you and you can sit in vent or ts with your mates years later and laugh with each other as you go misty eyed and remember "that time when" and "when xxxx did this" its times like those that even though you have hated the game sometimes you realize that in the end you are glad you played.
