Its of course a rhetoric question.
The reason for me is time. I rarely get more than 2 hours to play EVE now and since high sec can bite my ass that critically reduces the scope of things to do that I enjoy doing.
My fave issue is when I log in to realise local space is flooded with enemy pings so by the time I relocate or get a gang togetjer half my play time is gone.
Don't get me wrong I don't blame EVE for that. I am slowly adapting my playstyle to be more fluid and to be ok with 'slow' sessions where kills are hard to come by and those explo sites just don't give up the goodies.
How about you? Are you a vet not playing but not because you are bitter? Do you spend more time reading about eve because you have tome to do that rather than play?
What would you like to see to help get content fit into sub 2 hours sessions? |

Can't you use an alt to do something else? :/
Two hours can be long. Simply cruising around, watching local
can open up a lot of possibilities without even activating a module.
Opportunities are everywhere, they simply have to be taken!
This one is one of my better posts. You should see the others ....

You actually diagnosed your own problem. Inflexibility.
I use alts to increase my flexibility. I've got this one for running missions, another that I just recently finished training into a Machariel that runs incursions, another that I recently trained to sue a Purifiers for faction warfare missions, 2 for anom famring in null alternating with lvl 5 farming in low, 1 (my pvp main) in a null sec alliance for leet pvp (lol), yet another that has standings to run guristas or blood raider missions in npc null, and yet another that flys in "NPSI" styled groups like specter fleet or with Sir Squeebles or in an industrial with EVE radio when i just want some pvp.
4 accounts means 12 character slots means 12 oppurtunities for nightly fun, most nights all I can do is play 2 hours but thanks to the incredibly semi-afkable nature of much EVE pvp (I use a permatanked FoF missile Navy Raven to slowboat missions while i do other things) I'm never short of either fun or isk. 2.4 bil per month in PLEX (i pay for one account with cash) is nothing when you know how to work it lol

11 years, in the tail end of a 13th or something wind.
I'm chilling in wh, and find that most of the time i just idle. I have time to play, but.. am not. I think its cause my corp is low on numbers and i am not motivated to recruit, due to low numbers. Catch 22.
I do however feel a gust of wind coming, as alot of changes have me excited.
But as stated if things are that harry in yoru home system and you have limited time, i'd use an alt for the evening.

^ So much this ^
Destiny always seems decades away, but suddenly it's not decades away; it's right now. But maybe destiny is always right now, right here, right this very instant, maybe.

I know of a few old players in eve that do the same including myself these days. I do hope the new stuff coming will again spark the interest to /hardcore mode on like I have for the last several years but I refuse to get my hopes up so they can be dashed against that infallible iceberg known as CCP, other than this most of my time spent in game will be using Eve as a glorified expensive chat program.
As another said above alts are handy to do the things you enjoy.
And as yet another stated its dealing with people that bugs me to know end sometimes. Which is a universal human thing. Humans tend to suck imo. 
Strength isnt measured in numbers but in force of will. For if one motived willful individual stands many will fall around him that are weak.

LOL you are so cute I liked your post. I also liked it for the level of multi faceted irony in your post that you probably didn't even realise existed before you hit that reply button while being so smug you were right in doing so.
Some good posts in here and cheers Sykaotic <3
DaReaper, good point. The new changes with Fozzie Sov look fun, I'm thinking those with small gang experience and the willingness to train others are going to have a damn good time soon ^^

Because a games forums are for players not non-players, i really dont see what is so hard to understand here. Do we really want 20 posts a day from people that don't even play the game, I don't think we do.

If the people you speak of are paying a sub, and if posting on a forum is all they want to do.....then what right do you have to tell them they cant do that. Your throwing the word "we" around like you speak for everyone. Your opinion doesnt count for everyones view on that. Mabey you dont quite understand your own logic it seems.
Destiny always seems decades away, but suddenly it's not decades away; it's right now. But maybe destiny is always right now, right here, right this very instant, maybe.

And SOON, we can narrow down posting ability to the CORRECT kinds of players. And nobody in this forum plays my way, so nobody is allowed to post in the forum until they become the CORRECT kind of player. |

Only good until Null SOV becomes a honey trap and empty otherwise.

Im old enough to be a vet but dont play a lot because I am bored. The people that make a crap ton of isk play all the time. I constantly hear these stories of people making billions, wich im sure is true, but not for some one that doesnt log in every day.
Ive been playing since 2009 and only have a little over 3 billion isk, and that with 3 accounts. I know how to play the game, but like to do things that burns isk more then making it.
A large part of it is that I refuse to go anywhere with out the small group of freinds that I have made since that is they way we like to play. In small annoying gangs of friends. Wich was soundwaves idea of the future but he is gone now. We've all gone idle because of this. I constantly find myself logging in to see if anyone else shows up but just doing other stuff on the other monitor. Constantly realizing that the things I can easily do are things Ive done a million times before.
EVE is a really good game. The sandbox is awesome. Thats why I cant give it up. The problem with a sandbox however is the fact that you can never truly profit on a small scale. |

Stop dealing with people who make you feel that way, and just share your time with people who're fun.

Oh i dabbled for 2 years :)
I think I am leaning towards waiting to see fozziesov come in then take some guys out to sov to watch the world burn. Turns out providence is going to heat up soon. CFC rebranded to The imperium and is going to **** on their chips. I think my amarrian friends could do with some asistance lol.
