When you first started playing eve why did you choose the race/bloodline etc you did?
Personally I read all the flavour text and quite liked the idea of being a member of the space french. I'm a pure blood Gallente pilot who parents were activists and that just kind of sounded like fun.
In hindsight I would have looked at all the different races, realised the flavour text meant nothing and not spent as long as I did specialising in Gallente skills. I mean, would anyone train hybrids if they knew how much they sucked?

Hybrids don't suck, you're just not using them right.
Also, started as Gallente because I liked their ships color scheme.

Vheriokor for 1) they had the better stats and storyline when I started
2) The character looks.
Now since the changes.
I regret chosing Vheriokor, but still prefer Minmatar overall.
I want to be Sebishtor or however its spelled.
But not if it is going to cost a bunch of AUR. It aint worth paying that.

Believe it or not this guy used to have a distinct asian look. Plus he had mad Memory and Intelligence attributes which helped with playing that exciting first month of training learning skills.

When I choose my race and bloodline they came with a specific skillset. At the time I was interested in R&D and missile based PvP. Now its all about the flavor. With that, I would probably change to a matar bloodline for the heritage as well as the tats

I liked the "Mercenaries" part in my bloodline description. So I chose that Caldari line.
When I joined my first 0.0 corp, they told me to train Gallente, because that was the best PVP race back then(!)
As a result, I've been flying Gallente ships most of the time and lived in Gallente space, when in Hi Sec. So being Gallente would have been more appropriate.

I like black girls.
No really, I wanted a tough broad and the Brutor Minnie looked pretty tough. Also, I create a Dajli in every game. She is usually "ethnic". The new character creator made it where I could actually make her "black". However, I had gotten used to the "mixed" lighter skin tone of the old creator and she was supposed to be "mixed" race of sorts anyway.
No, I'm not a power player but not a "act out your character" RPer either.

I chose the race based on the fluff text I found most interesting.
The French IN SPACE, meh
an empire IN SPACE, seen it before
ex slaves IN SPACE, dkinda different, but meh
corporate state IN SPCAE, now thats different, I like that one.
The choice of bloodline was more pragmatic, I liked the attributes and skills of this one best. I actually had an Achura as my first character before I decided I didn't like industry and had him biomassed which is ironic since I ended up getting a bunch of industry skills on this character.

We were the good guys.
Well the Brutors were good too, but as CCP originally made them they were also mentally disabled.(Hmmm think maybe Icelanders are afraid of black people?)

The gallente video in the character creator was the only one that didnt have a "but this empire has sh*t in the closet" section.
And im a fan of flying bulbous bulbs with round sections on them.

My first char was Sebiestor. Had no clue what race to pick, what ships to fly, what weapons to use, anything. Just felt he looked the most like what I was after: a pirate and thief.

originally picked gallenete so i could start out in roughly the same area as my brother who showed me the game.
unlike him however i picked jin mei cuz i thought they ere the best lookin of the 3. stats really didnt enter much into the equation. after i got playing the game for a while tho i kinda liked the mimnatars so thats what my alts are verkoir bloodline.
i cant spell for crap lol

Back in the old days, different races had different attributes. 3 Charisma Achura and 5 Charisma Khanid for my two mains
This one is an achura in order to become a cyno alt faster.
...Then when you stopped to think about it. All you really said was Lalala. |

Ship looks/colours, best looking stations with the semi-transparent shieldings, general aesthetic of Gallente portraits (old ones were better).
Now only the stations still look good.

I chose Gallente because I prefered the look of their ships and I liked the whole independence and freedom of choice thing. Reminded me of The Culture in Iain Bank's books.
Also the girl in the old Gallente wallpaper with the blaster looked hot.

I read all the information on all the races and made a decision based on my rl stance...
I didnt wanted to take cladari coz i hate corporatocratic hand that is slowly covering the world irl...
I didnt wanted to take gallente coz i hate that weak quazi democratic but with strong "behind the courtain" secret police...and capitalism...
I didnt wanted to take amarr coz i hate... well you can guess :P
Only thing i was left with are minmatars...and they arent ideal either...
If sleepers would be a race you can chose ... i would take them...

I chose gallente after asking a friend who started playing a week before I did, who has the coolest ships. Now after 6 years with too much invested in my character to start over I fly ships from all races.

I'm an aethist in RL, so why not roleplay and play a religious whack-job!?
Plus the hood and nice looking ships are bonus too.

I picked Gallente because of their democratic politics, but later fell in love with the Minmatar ships and went all Minnie with a new char. So the Gallente guy gets the mining part, and I shoot stuff. ;)
Minmatar - Vherokior - Drifters ...because of their independent nature.

Instantly fell in love with Minmatar. Actually had a red mohawk for a year IRL, and I drive old rusty cars.
At first i thought their ships and guns sucked, so I switched to amarr ships 
Then I found out lasers sucked, so I switched to caldari for running missions.
That quickly became boring, and PVP looked fun, so i started flying gallente.
Now that my skills are maxed, minmatar effing rocks

When I started evei.com (iirc) was still in the air. I used the character creater to give me an headstart with learning skills. Caldari was the best option back then
