24, pvp, female
Why pvp? Because it provides more variety and surprises than pve/mining/trading/industry. I have some altchars doing this to finance pvp, and I must admit, I regard it as work, not as real fun.

21. Both.
Everyone PVEs, and they do it because you need money to PVP.

Two things:
1. You know you just SWAMPED your corp's poor recruiters with apps, right?
2. How do I get my gf to like PVP... let alone Eve?  She won't play anything but WOW.

Just because someone is into PvP doesn't mean that they can't/won't bother with industry...does anyone think that BoB goes to Jita shopping for all thier stuff? Carebears are by defenition non-PvPer, PvPers are by no defenition PvP-only...
That said, I view myselfe as a PvPer, have been a carebear but I saw the light... ---

You can be both, in fact everyone has to carebear a little from time to time, unless they buy ISK for $.

It also attracts griefers. The pathetic rejects of the internet who get their kicks not from heart-racing, pounding, "HolycrapI'malivehowwhysplody" PVP, but from knowing they've caused someone else a hard time. The kind who go out of their way to give themselves every advantage, even cheating, becuase it's not about winning or playing the game to them, it's about being the biggest jerk they can be.
this is the real crux of the problem. The minority who pirate are griefers. but they make the majority look bad as a whole. Most are really just playing the game, they pirate as a legitimate part of it. the small few however insist on doing it not for the money or the glory, but just for the kick of ****ing someone off.
The majority of pvpers or pirates are perfectly ordinary people. the problem that is that the small minority actualy are dysfunctionsal in that they just want to cause distress to people in and out of game. as with all minorities, they make the majority look very bad.

33. Carebear with militant leanings.
But for reference, I give a **** all what anyone thinks of my playstyle. It suits me, and that's just fine. ___________________________________

Born in 1960 .... and born to PvP.
With that said, I still use all the other tools in the sandbox .... but only to finance my PvP.

Originally by: Brutor Shaun Reading through various threads lately I've seen a lot of 'Eve is a PvP game', 'Carebears are lame', foot stamping, followed by a spout if utter drivel with no grounding in fact.
The way most of these threads are written and presented got me to wondering what the average age of a PvPer is compared to carebears.
I'm not for one second saying all PvPers are juveniles, or that all carebears are mature as there's obviously a mix of both in both classes. I'm just curious what the average ages are.
I'm 40, and proud to be a carebear.

I'm 41 and a carebear.
I spend 8 hours a day at work doing real life PVP. Verbal battles, negotiations etc. The last thing on my mind when I get home is doing more PVP. I just want to relax and cruise the cosmos with a beer in hand. Chat with good people, train skills and make some isk.
Occassional pvp is perfectly fine, just not my focus.

i'd point out two things. one of the oldest bits of writing known to exist essentially says the world is going to hell in a handbasket and it's the fault of the kids. the other thing being that the guy who wrote that was RIGHT.

40, carebear... although tempted to show some teeth soon and enter the PvP world now and then.

43, target.
Mostly because I don't have the patience to PvE long enough to gain the skills/isk/experience to be effective in PvP, but keep trying anyway.

1. That won't happen, because I am the corp recruiter. Swamp me!  2. Quite simple. Just tell her girls are too stupid, don't have the intelligence and the reflexes to play Eve-PvP :P
