was in beta, was on luanch day (or as soon as the store had a copy to sell at any rate) and was in zero space ninja mining. Sure I am a vet just have not been playing the full 2 years since that day

If the definition is 'played beta' am I a vet then?
I played beta, I was there at armageddon day, and the day after I quit. I just couldn't pay for EVE off the allowance I got back then. 3.5 months ago, I came back. New account, new chars. Am I a vet then?

When you think your a vet come out the .0 and see if you truely are one ;p. If your already in .0 then maybe would be vet, if you didn't have to ask.
When you become a vet, you will know.
BTW beta limited but cool. Duel MWD Battleships those were the days.

Too beta you had to be invited or else you came not on in. Did apply soon enough 2 years for the game started but only a few came in. So veterans only those who played from the very first beginning in may 2003. And the game was a week sooner out in america then in all europe. So americans have always had a headstart.

I played EVE in beta 5. I played until version 1.0, then I stopped playing because I didn't think I had the time to invest in the game. I came back December of last year. So I think I kind of consider myself a pseudo-vet, though to be perfectly honest I just don't have the knowledge and scope a real vet would.
Was nice to be greeted warmly by my beta buddies when I came back though.

beta?? so there will never be any new "vets" then??
i dont think that is fair for all thoose new players who dream about somday earning that "tag"
i think you could call yourself a vet when you have built up some kind of a reputation and established yourself as a player.

Quote:
Definitions of veteran:
noun: an experienced person who has been through many battles; someone who has given long service
noun: a person who has served in the armed forces
noun: a serviceman who has seen considerable active service
IMHO, if you put in more than 20+ hours a week playing this game (as in participate, not just log in to change skill training) you are a Veteran of EVE. Reputation warrants the level of respect each individual veteran gets.

Imho a pilot becomes vet if he plays intensively around 6 months.That gives him enough experience.
Tough truly with Eve changes a vet not palying 2 months has a lot to learn.So maybe he is vet player but he might be not quite good with new ships and equipemnt and rules and latests pvp fashion.
I experienced it personally:).( playijjng Eve since beta , tough i was only 1 month in beta or so)

I surely remember the rollback.
After have been playing my first day and gotten a pretty good grip on things and getting a shiny new Bantam, I logged on next day to discover my character was gone/never had existed 
I wanted to start from the bottom so I didn't took the isk compensation offered from CCP.

Hi,
Been around since beta phase 4 i think. Been CEO' & Directoring for almost 1/2 of my EVE time since. Other half have happily been in charge of just myself.
Still have yet to mine in the live game. Ever.
Still have yet to do more then 30 agent missions since the game went live.
Still have yet to do more then a days npcing. 
Plenty to look forward to eh.

IMHO you know you're a veteran Eve player when you say something starting "I remember back when we had..." [multiple MWDs, Concord agents, bribable agents, skill points for fitting modules or undocking, BS pwning frigates at any range, Sarum Prime as a gankzone...) and somebody else says "Huh?"...
And for today's non-vets, just think someday there'll come a day when you can say "I remember back when we could fly 8 heavy drones from a Thorax" - and that generation of n00bs won't believe you, they won't...

IMHO, if you know the strenghts and weaknesses of every ships/modules ingame, the names of most named modules and NPCs, if you know how the game's mechanics work and how to use them at your advantage, and if you have at least some experience as a pvper, then you're a Vet.
A veteran is in essence someone that has nothing more to learn (or very little, in some highly specialized areas), the time you take learning it, be it 6 months or 3 years, has little to do with it.

Veteran, hmm i'd say you calculate how many hours you've put in the game.. some people may have had an account since beta but don't do much and others that have had their account since late '03 or early '04 and have played many many more hours.
I'd like to note that if you've played 4hours a day, 365days a year for two + years... can you calculate how many hours that is?
how many days? weeks? of continuous playing :)

Generally with any mmorpg
0-3 months - Noob
3-6 months - Rookie
6-12 months - Average player
12-24 months - Good player
24+ months - veteran
48+ months - legend.
That's my personal opinion. There will be legends, but they will be few and far between. 4 years is a long time to invest in a game through all its changes and manipulations. I dare say in another 18 months the game will be substantially different enough to make noobs out of the most seasoned players.

Thats plain and simple bull****, after each patch even the most experienced player has to adopt to the recent changes, has to learn about the new ships, modules etc.
U know who a REAL vet is? Some1 who doesnt post in such a supid thread!

Personally, I think you can call anyone who's played for over a year a "Vet". "Elder" (or somesuch) would be the term I'd apply to the people who've been playing since launch.
Agreed.

Guess I am not a veteran then, was not around for Beta, although I have been playing for 2,5 years now...

To be called a vet< well you have to remmber a time before there was an autopilot. We had to jump manually everywhere. non of this afk autojumping back then.

Personally I view it as anyone that played during beta.
Aye. I second.
Never be in the company of anyone with whom you would not want to die.

does it actually matters if you're vet or not?
vets die as easy as noobs do, vet's just don't scream while dying

I played in beta 6, and created my account as soon i could, in may 2003 and been playing more or less ever since.
So, yes i think i am a "vet", but that does¦nt meen i know everything about the game, and i still get killed by players who are less experienced as i am, which is one of the great things about this game.

Haha, this thread started with a simple question and turned into the "Who's been doing this grind the longest is the coolest" thread. Jeez, why don't you people stop rubbing you ego's and stop the elitist beta rants...
Hahahaha. Funny.
Ego is not bad unless you overdo it And actually when you have played for 48+ months or more you should get some respect from other players, like someone mentioned in this thread. Its a long time to play the same game.

well, I was following the eve forums from late 2000, long before any playtesting even started. But, lack of a decent net connection prevented me accepting the beta invite, and I had to wait a good few months to join eve...
and I don't consider myself even close to "veteran"...
