There have been so many experiences in EVE which just raised my adrenaline, made me laugh or got me excited. Some of these, in no particular order:
* Getting your first battleship after spending so long saving up and training skills
* Living in Curse during the height of The Five. So many random small fights as well as huge operations of taking down large starbases with Battleships only.
* Warping to a belt and finding your first officer, blowign it up and then hurrying to the can while all the time checking local and hoping for a super pay day
* Coming to my first Fanfest and discovering how many other players had the same excitement about EVE that I did.
I see:
* Battleships and their fittings are dirt cheap because the EVE economy is buggered up by oversupply and lack of demand. So the thrill of saving up for it is gone, with not much thrill in waiting for skills to complete.
* Blobbing is the order of the day (and is boring) and small gangs are hotdropped all over the place, in Curse or most everywhere else in 0.0. And sov warfare means a lot of blobbing, shooting structure and waiting for endless timers. Not a lot of thrill there left either.
* Sanctums and ratting in general is just a mindless repetitive way for earning Isk and crossing fingers and toes for perhaps the chance for an officer kill through the sludge and drudgery of it all is not very thrilling either.
* Fanfest is turned into a festival of spin and broken promises over the years, and the thrill of meeting guys who play the game I can do at the local wateringhole as well.
All this sounds rather like the thrills of years past. So, gramps, the question is: when was the last time you actually played this game? Do you get a lot of thrills and excitement out of moving those extractors around a little?
Sigh ...
Honestly? The Op was asking about the most fun that people have had and, to be perfectly honest, fun is what you make of the environment you are in, how you interact with that environment and with the people who share it with you.
There are no doubt a lot of people who just love running level 4's or Incursions while others enjoy holding huge amounts of systems and massive fleet warfare. Others just like getting on EVE voice, running a mining op and chatting with their friends.
P.S, I also logged in as recently as today and I still have fun in EVE. Thanks for asking 
lol, nice troll
and on topic, mining veldspar in a badger until I could finally afford a merlin, (which took significantly longer than a friends brand new account to get into a bc :brokeneconomy:), and promptly wandering into lowsec without knowing what that ment and getting sniped by an apoc. That was the first bs I had seen, was :awesome:
