Not a new player, so some of this might already have been covered in the tutorial after i started, but its things i see other people struggling with.
1. How to report a player that scams/blows them up in rookie systems.
2. Some way to make sure new players knows that joining the first corp that posts an advert in local might not be a good idea.
3. Some way that explains to a new player what FW is so they dont accidentally join a FW corp without understanding what it is (was sort of a shock when a 1 day old Gallente player was wondering why he couldent travel anywhere without getting shot at, turned out he had been persuaded to join a Caldari FW corp without knowing what it was).
4. Some way to inform new players that war decs do happen and they cant expect to avoid this if they are in a player corp.
5. Information about things like trade hubs (maybe a mission that sends them to the closest trade hub in their area?) so that new players can learn where to go without having to jump across 20 different systems when buying new fittings for their ships just to get it cheap.
6. Seems to be some confusion about how to use the map (switching from system map as an example).
7. How to find the wallet.
8. How to find personally made bookmarks.
9. As others have mentioned, some way to make sure new players know that if they go to a system a couple of jumps away they will find ore. This is a question that comes up several times a day. Maybe just leave a note in the mission description or something, might be enough to make people understand?
10. Same with slots for industry (or just set up slots that can only be used by players that are under a certain age, or on certain missions to prevent older players from taking up all the slots).
11. As others have mentioned...How to add and remove things from the overview.
12. The hacking mission (think its one in Balancing the books series?) were you complete the "game" and cans spew out and you have to collect them. This one seems to be very difficult for many new players, and im not sure if its because of lack of explanation in the description or if its because the cans are hard to see.
Think thats it for now, great thread, very good idea

Another one i just thought about.
Include something that explains the bounty system. As in..Just because someone sets a bounty on you it does not mean that everyone can hunt you down and kill you without consequences.
Many new players misunderstand this one and thus are concerned about undocking or similar until its explained to them.

In fact, I had to ask in NCQA.
It would be handy if this was explained in the tutorial/career agents system. Why are some wrecks and cargo containers white, yellow and blue?
White = Belongs to you/your corp/fleet members
Yellow = Belongs to another player (if you loot from this you will get flagged)
Blue = Abandoned by the owner (you can loot this without getting flagged, but you cant fire at the can without Concord agressing)
However you can always salvage the wrecks no matter what color they are and not get flagged.
And yes, i know its off topic but he asked so i figured it was ok

I read that I should contact a GM to be kind enough to reset the mission for me so I may continue.
Now I'm trying to figure out how to do that.
Not ingame at the moment but im pretty sure its f12, and from there just find the appropriate section for the petition.
Think i listed this earlier but the petition system should be covered in the tutorial, even if its just a fast "If you have any problems please go to this location and submit a petition" so new players know.

And a downvote for the people complaining about training for big ships too early...half the fun of being a new player is trying to get into a bigger and shinier ship. Who wants to bum around in a destroyer for 3 months waiting for all your fitting skills to get to level 5?
With big ships im guessing most mean BS and above (like, im going to be in a carrier in 3 months!), and many are convinced that "smaller" ships such as frigs, destroyers and cruisers are "useless".
Something that could help show new players that unlike in other games, the things you "start with" in EVE, are in some cases more useful for certain tasks then say...a titan, would help a lot of people from training directly towards that ship, then die and loose it and then rage quit because they spent all their ISK on said ship (that they did not have the knowledge to fly, the skills to fit properly, or a good enough understanding of the game to know what the ship is meant for).
