I am a power gamer and training is really slow here. Only way I could get what I wanted out of the game was to make 3 accounts. If you don't have alts, good for you - you save money every month. I can't resist though.

Same here. No alts. I think that they would delude my gaming experience too much.
If other people want to use them - fine - I don't.

One account here and i only use an alt to keep my 2 person corp from evaperating if I join another. Two accounts for me would just be a bit too much.

I've often considered getting another account, but I can't think what I'd do with it...
So only 1 account for me.

I used to play Battletech 3056, text based sim.
If you got "podded" twice, your character was gone for good.
Had 1 character there for like 3 years.
I just can't get around to using an alt, it feels cheap and lazy, almost like some kind of exploit. I actually own another acct, but it just sits there inactive. I train long skills so I don't have to bother logging in.
And I'm not gonna sell the second acct, because 1) I dont need the money 2) I don't believe in buying isk.
The subscription runs out in a couple weeks after that I doubt I will ever use that second acct.

Never used an alt scout. I also think it's lazy/stupid. There should be game mechs which allow you to scan the system next door or whatever.
Alts are just meh. -=====- Xorus is teh nub :D I heard that *beats player with big stick* now be a good carebear and mine me some veldspar - Xorus |

I have three accounts because when I created each one there was a specific role in mind. However the pvper mostly flies a freighter these days, I didn't really notice on my first account what a pain in the rear it is to train all those little things like engineering, mechanic, electronics etc. My third was a second industrialist for an indie corp I founded that floundered, I keep him around because of invention.
Most people I know though have only 1 account and don't use alts. _______

Edited by: Swor on 12/10/2006 07:17:13 I started with 1 account, but i was getting so frustrated wiht wanting to train everything that i had to go multiple
i only use 1 account at a time in pvp, but now i am able to specialise in races, and it gives me something to do while i'm waiting for a super long skill to train...
besides i can never catch up to high SP players so having multiple chars specialising in different areas is the only way i can compete

Technically I have an alt but he has not trained a single skill, still only has his original 5k ISK and has never left the station... He was originally created for checking foreign trade markets but I only used him about 5 times before I realised it was easier to simply ask in corp chat.
I've just never got around to deleting him. He's over a year old now. He must be one bored Brutor.

Just one char for me as well. I think I get a richer experience out of it, even though getting good in more than one field will take time.
I started off with trade, industry and science for manufacturing and R&D. Now I'm bitten by the PVP bug, and am training combat skills now. PVP'ng when you originally are a manufacturer do make the count of lost ships rather high 
But, It's improving and at least I know how to build a new ship!

There is something distinctly satisfying about jumping blind into a system only to find a flashing red dreadnaught belonging to a Corp that has a KOS out on you, warping your ass out of there ASAP and grinning once you've succesfully escaped.

Well, I almost do not have an alt. I mean, yeah, I created one but never used it other than a place holder for a corp I created when I was playing solo.

Personally I don't like alts, at least as they are commonly used, they strike me as little more than an exploit. (I know they are not one before some of the usual trolls leap on my use of the word) but they serve as a way to get around game mechanics - war decs, gate camps etc in an artificial manner. Therefore I am flying without any.
If a player chooses to have 2 characters in the same corp and play them as that is a different matter, but the expendable npc stooge that most are does not appeal.
I do have 2 accounts and asecond main. the 2 characters have nothing to do with each other. The second one is for when a fancy a different playstyle and change of pace. he spends most of his time docked and training only coming out when I want a change from my principle character.

I have 3 "mains" on the same account. All having a considerable share of skill points.
And yes, I did train advanced Learning skills 3 times on the same account. ---------------- Mr. Science & Trade Institute |

I only have 1 account and 1 character - been playing EVE for over 2 years now. I really need to change that as it's hard being a pirate with no alternate source of income.

well, 3 accounts here. 2 mains and 1 alt training to be my third main.
I prefer being able to do as much as possible with my gametime and having 2-3 accoutns going at once is much more challanging. -----

I fail to see how having one character as a capital ship and BS pilot, and one character specialised in HACs and Recons makes me a cheat to be perfectly honest.
