Il make this as short as I can, no more than 2 pages :D
But seriously Its time I Quit Eve. I have no isk or assets left and Ive been in the game for over 2 years. Its obvious I have brought all the bad reputation and lack of assets on myself whether it was on purpose or not. The last good friend I had the other day refused to talk to me because of certain paths I took ingame (pirating).
Eve has become an addiction for me to esscape a very shtty reality. In consequence of this my real life is suffering and has been for a while. Its gotten so bad I have no choice at this point. I have to stop being on the computer for 10 hours a day and start fixing things in my life.
I know most of you will be happy to see me go, most of you know me as a wanna be pirate, isk begger or escrow scammer. Sadly thats the legacy I left for myself in eve after over 2 years of playing it.
I will not be coming back this time.
Just wanted to aplogize to all the people that I offended, upset, greifed, scammed, and turned my back on. I will miss some of you.
Eve has been a interesting expereince in my life but has also nearly destroyed it, and like a drug addcition it needs to be stoppped cold turkey. I have already stopped paying my subscription to eve and it in the next few hours will be deleted form my hard drive.
Just hopefuly I can leave one single piece of advice behind before I go,
"Dont let Eve become more important than your real life, dont start neglecting your real life for anything in eve it will come back and haunt you eventualy."
Good Bye Everyone, ED out

If you wanted to go out "well"...should have sold your char for Isk (2 years of SP?) and given some Isk to all the people you believe hate you.
But you are sooo right. I gave up MMORPGs for 2 years (actually disconnected myself from the Net) because I got too addicted to DAoC.
Now my time is limited, and that's the best thing.

Good choice. Good luck.
Don't forget to delete your character and destroy your CD's.

Sorry to jump on the opportunity like a vulture on a carcass, but would you be willing to give your character away since apparently you're not going to sell it? I'd gladly pay for the transfer fee.
I guess "no" is the answer but no harm in asking, eh?

Bull**** and highly inappriopate for this thread. It takes a lot of strenght to admit a addiction and do something about it.

Luckily, I have a great and hot gf in RL to keep me busy..but she started playing eve so hopefully that wont pull us in like it did you. I'm coming from FFXI where I got very addicted, especially to the crafting system, and eve is not as intense a passion, but still addictive!

Take care and enjoy.
It's a hard thing to stop something that becomes your life. To admit it is half the battle. All the best.
To the guy who made the weak minded comment. I suggest you go outside for a while too and try to remember these are other real people you're wirting to.

dont quite undertsnad what u mean... i know these are real p-eople im talking to... EVE is a game not a drug and therefore no actuall chemicals adictying you to it. just your weak mind looking for a way out of a bad RL. and to the guy who msaid i was talking bull****: ur just anoither weak man unwilling to admit your the cause for your addiction and just want to blame EVE for it.

I hope you will have more succes sorting out your real life than you have sorting out your EVE life. It's my experience that generally EVE life reflects your real life...
So i hope you've learned something m8, otherwise i'll pray for you ;-)
Good luck. |

Of corse you don't understand, it's easy to tell by your post.
Being addicted to something doens't need to involve drugs or anything like that, the addiction comes from the chemicals released in the brain when you do something you enjoy (endorfins-spelling?), he most likely got addicted to that (it's more common that you would know), people on this planet get addicted to anything and everything (even people out there who get addicted to stealing, aswell as people who are addicted to chrsitmas).
If anyone is weak minded it's actully you, the reasoning for this?, you fail to comprehend how easy it is to become addicted to something, and if you actully take the time to read his post, he doesn't balme eve at all, he blames himself (the first step to admitting he has a problem).
People like you make the rest of the human species look bad, you have no feelings for you fellow man, your the type who will kick a person at there lowest, to me your worse than that jammy stuff that gets in your toes.

Take care and good luck.
Well Eve is addictive i am sometimes on the verge of serious problems with rl cause of it , i understand you tottaly.
Saying this just so you dont leave with bad feelings:
Im sorry about yesterdays incdent, i am not sure you understoood me.I admired your will to fight ( ityped it in chat but you were already gone from it) but meant you cant be so furious about loosing if you risk being outnumbered.Specially after the fleet op most poeple were tired afk.
Again good luck

Then maybe you got lucky in EVE and hit the BPO lottery or something similar. Otherwise it's probably a scewed sense of what is possible and what is not IRL ;-) |

Good Bye Everyone, ED out
Normally we don't allow quit threads, but in your case I will make an exception. Not because I think you are a great guy, but because this is an important message.
The internet, online gaming and so on can be a great thing, but it can also ruin your life. I'm quite frankly forced to shut down the forums from time to time because I tend to get very angry at posts where the poster goes on as if this was the real world and his or her issue is the only thing that matters. There is a life outside computers, but sadly people are starting to forget how to meet others in the real world and in some cases, like yours, their internet life takes over completely. I would suggest that anyone who starts to feel they're getting really angry about posts or in game events immediately shuts off their computer and go take a walk, spend time with friends or family or do whatever you can think of that isn't electronic.
While I am sad to see a person leave us, I do think you're doing whats best. And I do think more people here should maybe do what you are doing, or at least take more breaks from their online and gaming lives, for their own good.
Good luck!
