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. Come on these bookmarks where quite handy when you wanted to put some lag into the system when hostiles came in  . I remember the weekend before warp to zero went live. The entire server lagged as bm's were furiously copied; 0.0 alliances were afraid that the warp changes would be rolled back. And as with most significant changes, wtz was going to be the "end of Eve as we know it" as Eve transitioned into a theme park mmo. Sounds vaguely familiar...
LOL.
As if forcing a 15KM gauntlet run for noobs who didn't get their BMs yet so they can be ganked meant something. When I see people harken back to such days as the "glory days of PVP" they failed an intelligence test with me.
Of course back in those days noobs didn't get popped so much. I used to fly my velator through Amamake and only got mildly harassed.
Maybe if people didn't noob-harvest so much we would not have WTZ? |

Nothing causes more tears in Eve than removing easy kills. WTZ was a godsend; bm sets were extremely expensive, virtually impossible to verify, and caused lag. It also halved travel time. But it removed gatecamp ez mode so of course the crying was loud and often. |

7.14.04 here. Continuous sub, though my training was inactive for a solid month a few times when RL had me bogged down.
I joined EVE as an EARTH & BEYOND refugee. I loved that game! |

I remember playing for a month and thinking "This is a big game!", cancelled and came back in January 2006.
Then I was involved in AURORA (Live Event Team) up until the program was disband .
I'm just coming back from a 8 months break, Rubicon brought me back. |

2003-05-14. Though i started playing back when veldspar was 1m3 per unit and you needed 1000 units for a refine. And a refine only yielded 333 trit.

2003/05/20
Played last two weeks of Beta and the day they bumped everyone skills ups before the game went live to test out Battleships. I undocked, panned the camera for 1 minute and redocked because I was late for work.
I mined in a probe for 2 months straight because I refused to go Gallente like the rest of Corporation. (We had one of the first 10 Megathron BPO's ever bought) Finally they felt bad and placed me a Rupture.
When they gave me my first Tempest, I past out ratting in a 0.7 belt due to all the mining hours before and woke up to find Signatar in an egg. That did not go well with my Corp.
I remember mining Arkonor and Bistot in Empire until they changed Roid Spawns. (0.0 had roid field to warp to but were basically place holders until the developers could start working on that part of the game.)
I remember it took 40-60 jumps just to go from one side of a region to the other (Molden Heath) and no warp to 0.
I remember roaming with B.O.S.S and Curse Alliance before there were in-game alliance mechanics.
Dual Warp Drive Cloaking Ravens.
The discovery of making Safe Spots was made by a player named Joshua Calvert...(who would of guessed?)
Famous phrase "Who the F--- is David Galt?"
Good times. |

Sup? February 2004 here
I've had a good few periods of account inactivity or just not bothering to train a skill, so I only have about 110m skillpoints. I frequently ran out of things to train that mattered, and had no training goals. Still regret not random setting level 5 skills and keeping good implants in my head all these years. |

Looking through this thread the one thing that I was reminded of were the "Instas".
And people complain that EVE does not improve. Warp to 0K, was in my opinion the single best thing to have happened since I started playing. |

I have a can in Emrayur named "insta". Good possible that I still got instas of gates that where removed to dehub Yulai. I will not open that can to check tho. The last time I tried the client lagged out for 15 minutes.

I have a pair of '05s though as so many other people have said lots of breaks so no continuous play from back then.

I still have a carrier lying around from when they were first introduced way back when they were first introduced.
I remember when PLEXs were 270-300 mil each.
I remember mining in a scythe in low sec for jaspet, because mining barges didn't exist. Falling asleep at my computer and waking up in my pod because rats had killed me. probably sat in that belt for hours in just a pod without anybody bothering or noticing me.
So many memories over the years. Eve for me will always be the game i could never quit, take a break from yes but always come back too |

Creating warp to 0 bookmarks by passing the gate with 15km and then bm the spot. Yeah.. no warp to 0 on bm's either.
Also selling bm set's for all 0.0 regions. |
