TBH though I honestly think that missions should only be used to get familiar with the game. Once you learn the basics of ship combat for fun and for money I think players should move on. Either try FW or try out null sec and either do some belt ratting or run some anoms. Null sec missioning can even be pretty cool. Just keep in mind that Eve is a group PvP game.
If you are running solo content in Eve night after night then you are playing this game wrong.
Use mission running as a spring board to get you into other stuff and you'll be fine. Treat mission running like dailies in WoW and you'll get board with this game fast.
Sorry but I gotta disagree with this statement.
First - Eve Online is a sandbox game which means there's no right or wrong way to play.
Second - There's no rule stating you can't solo run the game content.
Third - Despite what others may say, if you enjoy doing a specific type of content available in the game, then do it.

Mission running is actually a lot more varied than just saving the Damsel day after day.
The only reason players feel like the content is limited and get's boring is because they end up running missions for the same agent all the time. If players ran regular missions for various agents in all divisions of different corps for all factions, it would be a very long time before the content seems limited and get's boring. Add in Event Agents such as Career, Circle, Data, Cosmos and Epic Arc agents the content becomes even more expanded and varied.
Mix in all the other content available in this game and players can be entertained and kept busy for years. When you include alt accounts and multi-boxing, almost everything in this game can be done solo. Exploration, Mining, Planetary Interaction, Manufacturing, Marketing, Processing, Researching, Hauling, etc. Probably the only exception to solo play is Incursions and large Fleet Battles.
So even though the main mantra of this game is stated as being PvP / group play, most activities in this game can be and are usually done solo, including PvP.
