SOMEONE not only read my blog, but they recommended it?!?! I feel like doing some celebratory drinking tonight!
1st about my blog. I know IGÇÖm a **** writer, I have spelling errors, punctuation problems and god only knows what else. But what I am is a Fan of EVE Online. I have a desire to be public in my actions no matter the consequences. The EVE online community and the wormhole community for that matter are my friends. We fight, we tell stories, we gossip, we do what friends would do in real life. That is the most important thing for me (some people I would like to be hit by a bus, but I would still go the funeral, and dump my 40 oz on their coffins, but friends none the less)
2nd About wormhole space is dying. I donGÇÖt think its dying, but you can clearly see the ebb and flow of its player base supporting one activity over another. Often times people just pull the cord and head to K-space because they simply donGÇÖt encounter the type of play style they approve of, as often as they would like. You know what? ThatGÇÖs OK. Its left to people like myself, Jack, Bronya, Baby Dady(RIP?).. people who participate on this forum to Tell the stories of our good times! Eventually those people who went to K-space will come back, maybe changed for the good or bad.
The more we tell stories of our successes, our failures.. our dramaGÇÖs Good OR bad. The more people will know there is a thriving changing life force of players in every wormhole. Fighting with each other, laughing, whatever. We are inspiring a new crowd of targets(people) to participate in the fun.
I think that we having this conversation right now is a GREAT thing! EVE/Wspace is far from dying, it will always be a place for all different types, all they need to do is hear something from someone, some time.. about some kind of thing that happened and they will want a taste.
Some might say that the content creators are going away, or not what they used to be. Naww, the stories, the content you want to see has yet to be done or achieved. The greatest thing about EVE and W-space is the ability to change, and do something different. For every group that gives up in W-space, there is another group saying GÇ£You know what? LetGÇÖs go find out what wormholes are aboutGÇ¥ then bam! More people, different outlooks, different combinations of fun stories to be had. More content!
I sometimes (rarely) get EVE mails that say GÇ£Hey Spear, thank you for being on that Podcast and telling your stories, without that I wouldnGÇÖt have tried wormhole spaceGÇ¥ Those mails keep me going. The EVE butterfly effect is in full force. Those same guys go on to kill me in pvp, cause IGÇÖm bad.. but still its content.
I try and a positive outlook on EVE and W-space. Sure I may not find who or what IGÇÖm looking for all the time, but its ever changing and thatGÇÖs the fun part.
