Just wondering how many of us old Eve farts are still around playing?
Date of Birth: 2006.11.03 01:49:00
Show your age to these youngings nowadays.
Back in my day.....
We didn't have warp to 0. We had to set our alarmclocks to change skills, cause we didn't have a skill queue. DUST bunnies were the things that collected in the back of your monitor. boot.ini
To those of us still around after seven years I salute you O7

Although the account is six years old. Well ...... I suppose you could be a honorary member in training :) But we can't teach you the secret handshake. Also, if you haven't been active for the entire time there may be a few inside jokes and things you may not be privy to.

... can't remember, much less count, the number of times RL required a "Sabbatical" from EVE since Beta. One war and several seasons on gas rigs, such is life.

Yea what he said! I find it discriminatory to say you had to play straight for 7 years! Not very LGBT friendly http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AfSDNPFCPfY |

Lol.
I too am a 7 year old toon, however I have taken numerous breaks from EVE.
That said, I remember BoB, t20, he whose name cannot be spoken, T2 BPOs, CCP Tuxford, Burn Jita, boot.ini, the sorely missed warp to 15k (although I do not miss the infinite bookmarks of doom), etc.
And through it all, Caldari ships have been **** in pvp. |

No tractor beam... loot could take more time than killing the stuff, flying to cans 60 Km from each other was a nightmare.
Took me 3 weeks to buy my first combat frigate and I lost it on Worlds Collide L1 after being able to survive the 1st encounter with an actual pirate (player) in low sec with only 5% hull left - I still have his Char on my contacts list. 
Good times! If your balls are hurt and bleeding don't sit in a pool full of piranhas (note to myself: don't complain in GD) |

DOB 19th Nov 2004. When Rubicon launches I will have been playing for 9 years. Never had a break though sometimes I'd only log in a couple times a week.
In my day....
Copying Insta bookmarks... grrr. T2 was new and Capitals were just a myth. Buying (and still owning) the original retail version of Eve. Watching Xetic and CA slugging it out in Yulai (no one had heard of Jita)

Guess i qualify. Maybe i need to put some grey hair and and a long zz topp beard on this guy, and some cheap sunglasses!!
This was a second account though, may have to fire up my first account and check the main on that one, which was a miner/industrialist that i stopped playing years ago. That toon predates this one by several months, which would put it sometime in the summer of 2004 me thinks.
Guess i be gettin' kinda old........ |

This Toon was Created on the 23.11.2006 09:38.00 EvE Time
And I have had this Toon for 7 years on the 23.11.2013
And I have been active all the way through the past 7 years with this Toon.
Did not stop playing EvE or had taken any breaks.
CCP you have one dedicated player who has seen the game changed over the years.
Yes I do remember the boot.ini saga but that did not affect me as I waited for CCP to fix it and after the fix I downloaded the fixed patch file.
Well hope the Future of EvE will be more interesting :) I am not a CCP employee-ájust having a input in the EvE forum

So this is the "I haven't played EVE for ten years, but I'd love to be in some sort of club, so I'll make a club that requires someone to have been ingame for seven years, just like me."-club |

Oh, you need to have been subbed the entire time to be in your club?
Yup, I've been subbed every day since this character was born.
Just try and prove that I wasn't.

I have started playing Decembre, 27th 2003, gave away the char i started with in 2005. I was young and did ragequit, due to some really annoying bugs, that got some expansive ships killed and not many of them were reimbursed. And came back 2 month later, because all other games seemed to be kinda boring and restrictive after experiencing the freedom in eve :).
If you check this char you will see it is just 2 days old. I am just not posting with my main, because I do not want people to know that i am active these days. Basically taking a break from alliance business :).
The thing i remember most about the old days is how much harder it was to make ISK and that losing something like a battleship could actually hurt your wallet, not even speaking of how long it took to make the money for a ship like that.
Ships and weapons were extremly unbalanced. My favorite solo ship was the scorpion (before missiles had the explosion radius and explosion velocity attribute and dealt full damage to any target they reached. Also jammers were a lot more efficient and had shoter cycle times, was a nice ship to kill small gangs solo :).
We only had frigs, cruisers, battleships, shuttles and industrial ships. Most ppl only had 1 account and mining in high sec was a group activity. (Stopped mining the day i got my Scorpion and the insurance together and turned to the dark side).
More than 20 ppl in a fleet was a quite big fleet :). In EU prime time having 2.5k players online was a lot :).
Ships bumping each other at insance speeds sometimes when "gang warping" (fleets were called gangs at that time).
T2 BPO lottery.
Well.. i am gonna stop here.... if i would give you a complete list of things that were different I guess i will run out |

Just trickled past my 7th EVE birthday: 12 Nov 2006
Giving out free candy if you get in the back of my van.
Also, have been pretty much subscribed the whole time apart from maybe 6-8 months in total? Back when I was in Uni, sitting for exams, and ghost training was still around  |

Haha, it would be worst if the roleplaying was being a cry baby asking mom to change diapers.
