Hiya,
A couple of weeks ago an email was sent out, inviting former players to reactivate their accounts and come back to space. For no cost we could play for seven days with out old characters and see what has happened to EVE.
Myself I played from Medusa (alpha 6) until late 2003. I have a 12M skillpoints character without much assets left.
What would you, experienced players, of EVE recommend me and others like me to venture into to get the best possible view of what EVE has become during this week we have?
Best regards,
Blackout

Duly noted Mr. Rising. I shall avoid your presence now and forever.
Seems like this will be a not so challenging week as space is quite big.
To the rest of you gentlemen, thank you for your kind words. May be that I extend to a "real" subscription again.

Ur old corp (noticed the name under your pic) not active anymore?
Nope mate. Seems old "Tarnec" is no more.
Looked into the corp assets and there are some stuff there but I don't have privs to access it. Last audit entries are from 2005...
Problem with following your advice and go hi sec and join a friendly corp would be that most of the game's progress has been in low sec areas if I am not misstaken?

Why not join the Noobwaffe for a couple of weeks and teach while you learn?
Noobwaffe is a training ground type of group?
Couldn't see it mentioned in the Newbie area of the boards nor in the Corporations area.

I posted a suggestion to CCP that had I been in their shoes I would have man an effort to gather us returning oldies into a group. Send out an automagic evemail to characters on the account welcoming us back and so on.
I will drop you guys a message in-game tonight and we might hook up.
If anyone else who are checking in from times passed reads this, drop a line below and we might get something going. Perhaps only sitting on the bench, having a drink and muttering about how good things were before and how rude the youngsters has become nowdays...

Hi Blackout
I donŠt think we met before - but I noticed TarNec as your corporate home - I remember working with Verbal Kint and some other guys of TarNec - if you are looking for some company ingame drop me an evemail - you are welcome to our public channel to chat away with us.
Thanks!
Saw Mr. Kint earlier but didn't talk to him. Will do that when I see him next time.

What is your preffered playstyle? i.e. PvE, PvP, forum whining perhaps? :)
These days Eve is highly specialized, so basically forget about trying to be a jack of all trades. Well you can, just you will come to the realization that you aren't as efficient and end up getting smoked by some goofball in low sec. Many players get around this by running multiple accounts with specializations in each area to fund what they want to do.
Irregardless, figure out what is fun for you and do that. 0.0 politics has basically broken down into 2 groups, the haves and the have nots. This is reference to skill capability, however if you read a post from a have not, they would like you to believe that the game is completely corrupt and coming to an end soon.
Oh and Jita sucks.
edit note: mispelled 'accounts' gets caught rather nasty by the word filter.
Oh, I am (was?) a forum whiner of the highest level. Don't get much time in-game but I enjoy spending time on the boards. Really liked the Jade Constantine era of the EVE forums, pitty (s)he got banned.
When I mentioned doing lvl4 missions in a cruiser yesterday evening I was frowned upon. I figure there has been an increase in mission difficulty?
I do have a Stabber in-game but without bling-bling. Probably got myself killed at the end of my last playing period. I got a nice contribution from a friendly guy last night so I am aiming at getting the Stabber decently equipped and go visit some old agents of mine. If they still want to talk to me that is.
To answer your question Lord XSiV I think I will get familiar with how things work now and then hook up with a friendly crowd. Need to figure out the jump cloning business though as I am blessed with good implants and don't really fancy getting podded.
