So I quit this game 3 years ago and just re-subbed last Friday or Saturday.
Came back, found I have a -7.9 sec status, probably understandable at the time but it's been 3 ******* years. Seriously. Tried to join a nullsec pvp corp, got scammed (GoonWaffe I guess is known for this) for 90% of my isk. Found out I can buy tags and turn them in to return status, purchased some with the rest of my isk and loaded them in an incursus. Apparently the turn-in location is in lowsec, several jumps away. Immediately got targetted down by a Loki camping the station before my frigate could warp to the gate (since when are cruisers able to target frigs before warp?) Lost the rest of my isk in that wreck.
Checked my alts. All the assets I had were in a POS that no longer exists, owned by a corp that also no longer exists. Contact and watch list completely empty.
So... no assets, alts have minimal skills trained (might as well just play a trial account), main literally can't do anything. No contacts still playing the game.
Well idk. If nobody wants me to resume playing the game, I guess I won't play it. POE is free. Cancelling the sub. Byes. |

That's an awfully long winded way of saying "I can't win in this game by being an incompetent gullible fool, so I don't wanna play anymore.".
Better luck with what ever game you choose to migrate to. |

That's a pretty awesome welcome back to the game. When stuff like that happens to returning players, they usually say it reminds them of why they wanted to play. I'm not sure what the problem is, OP. Oh god. |

In another thread in the same day we are told how faction warfare alts make serious isk at 3 days old orbiting buttons.
So which is it, can't make isk in a frigate, can make isk in a frigate ?

While you as a person and player may have changed dramatically in 3 years, and your goals in eve different this time around also, your sec status doesn't repair itself. I can imagine how logging in to find -7.9 might have been a but surprising and a lil demoralizing, but that's just the way it is and always has been. So what, you forgot your old sec status? That's not anyone's fault but your own I guess.
You came back for a fresh start, so maybe the best course of action would have been to start a new account, or even now you could still create a new character in one of your spare slots (if you have any).
Quote:Tried to join a nullsec pvp corp, got scammed (GoonWaffe I guess is known for this) for 90% of my isk. Ouch. Yeah, it happens a bit. Feels ^^ But by the same token you could have done a lil research. You jumped in head first after a three year break, took a big risk, and it didn't pay off. *shrug*

Quote:Well idk. If nobody wants me to resume playing the game Well that's up to you. If you ask others, especially here in GD, the results likely won't encourage you.
You had a bad return - you forgot what some things were like, you took huge risks anyway, and tried to jump into the deep end.
Bad luck, a ****** start back. It happens, and shouldn't be the end of the world for you. If it is then maybe the others have a point when they say EVE may not be for you this time around. Anyway, chin up!

Sounds like you learn nothing from your failures, just give up and quit instead.

I did that in 2008. Even deleted my toon. Well, that lasted long :p

3 years in hiding doesn't turn a terrorist into a saint, does it?

Wait, you PAID to join a nullsec corp? Sorry to break it to you, bro, but EVE isn't the game for you.

It's called "research". Had you checked the gates, you could have seen which ones had the high ganking ratio, then taken the long way around.

Rule no. 1: Never fly what you can't afford to lose. That includes cargo.
So... no assets, alts have minimal skills trained (might as well just play a trial account), main literally can't do anything. No contacts still playing the game.
Main can't do anything? I disagree, even starting out in a mere noobie frigate, you can build your assets up fast. Do a bit of belt ratting in low, get a better ship, hunt FW plexers, get a better ship, perhaps explore a bit, get enough assets to fix your sec status, if you even need that. Money shouldn't be a problem to get.
Tldr: It isn't the game's fault - it was all YOU. |
