Was getting bored with WoW, then read an article about the Guiding Hand infiltration. Played the trial and enjoyed it plus after eve the WoW graphics just looked too cartoony. |

This. And I wanted to try an MMORPG when it was first announced (by now defunct Perpetual Games) that there was a Star Trek MMORPG in the make.

I got bored of Lineage 2 and EvE sounded cool. I love how being a **** is a valid career path, no other mmo comes close imo. |

Wanted to play something my actions can make a difference then tested Eve for the first time years ago and didn't liked at all, few players and some awkward mechanics plus the fact starting players at that time didn't had such an easy life like they do now, witch is very good as change.
Restarted again a few years ago, saw learnings get hard ass kicked (probably one of the best improvements ever), UI changes, tutorial changes, graphic changes, new ships and overall a better community. Gave it this last try and since then I play nothing else.
Imho high sec became really worst and probably the worst place for new players to get the game, hopefully there are a few awesome corporations like Eve Uni and RvsB who can learn those new players getting comfortable with game mechanics and ships/pod loss. Those corporations should have a much higher impact on dev's decisions for high sec changes and make it a better place than the rubbish it is.

Saw it on BTJunkie advertised along the top in a gaming cafe, guessing someone was looking on the website that day so it was plastered and advertised everywhere.
Realised it was a place where I can be a different person, have fun without limits.
Here I am, nearly 5 years later.

Saw an advertisment and it looked to me like a Homeworld online mmo back in 2003 (homeworld 2 still being my favorite game to this day). To this day still wishing I had a Hiiagarn Battlecruiser type hull or Destroyer type hull in-game as IMHO HW2 ship hulls >Eve ship hulls. |

I had heard about an old (2005 or 2004 maybe?) situation where a player had ran an in-game ponzi scheme, then RMT'd the isk for something in the range of 100,000 pounds (British pounds, iirc). I learned about this in an article of some random gaming magazine where they interviewed the guy. From the article, it seemed like aside from the fact the guy RMT'd the money, his behavior was otherwise acceptable. I liked the idea of a game where the ToS allowed for scamming and such, and general douchebaggery.
Eventually I tried a 2-week trial, and on maybe my 8th or 9th day I was ratting in highsec in a destroyer and I killed a rat with a funny name, and it dropped a 300m snake implant. I figured I'd just have to keep playing then, if my luck was that good :) |

I was looking for a spaceship game that was sort of like Wipeout in space, and for some reason eve was the closest thing I could find at the time. I promptly became addicted and abandoned my real life in favor of flying around in frigates all day.

ELITE the old computer game.
I used to play it on my commodore 64, then on the 286/386. One day I was looking to see if they had made an updated version of it and one of the sites I looked at described EvE as the new version of ELITE. So I gave it a try.

Maybe elite since it used arcard like gameplay. Elite II on the other hand is a beast well beyond eve. |

Well I have been interested in EVE for a lot of years, but just couldn't get myself to pay a monthly sub for any game. In early 2011 I started to hear a lot about Dust 514. A highly tactical, FPS-MMO, in which death matters? It sounded so awesome I knew I had to play it, and I knew I didn't want to be space poor. So I finally signed up for EVE in summer of 2011, to get a headstart in Dust. Now I am totally hooked on internet spaceships.
Ironically my interest in Dust is waning very fast, we'll see how it looks at release, but I am here to stay in EVE. |

I used to play Freelancer. Heard about EVE through the multiplayer and decided to try it out. If you never played Freelancer it was pretty much like EVE Atari, but a lot of fun (and ironically like EVE, there was a lot of incomplete stuff in it). |

Waaay back in September 2003, I picked up a boxed edition, read the description, and bought it thinking it was a stand alone game. When I discovered it was an online mmo I thought...oh crap! If I knew it was an mmo I would have never bought it. Best mistake I've ever made purchasing a game!

My husband and I saw them in the store when the game launched 8 years ago and he asked if I wanted to try it, I said something to the effect of 'meh, spaceships, not a chance', he bought them anyway and I tried and have been playing on and off for 8 years. |
