Originally by: Jacob Castillo Why not 5 and you lose 90% of your total current SP?
I would actually like this. A "choice" made for an semi-'end-game' of sorts. Call of Duty 4 has a similar idea with it's "prestige" points, and it seems to work out quite well.

Originally by: Vyktor Abyss As a 2 year vet I say yeah cool.
I'd like to see them available but at the price of a genetic mutation meaning you can't train any further skill points.
Instead you can re-manipulate your skill points every so often with the right expensive Jovian equipment and techniques.
Another cool idea :)

Originally by: Karyuudo Tydraad I agree. In fact, characters less than 4 years of age should have their ships self destruct immediately after being locked by a veteran. You know, as perks for buying an expensive character off the forums. It's only fair if it's completely unfair.
Good idea... i like it.
WoW, you guys need a f'in life. You get waay to mad. Sorry if your EVE character is your only accomplishment.

Originally by: Croesus i like my 100 mill sp idea, because i like to achieve stuff without raising a finger.
If you ignore the 5 years of training skills,wich you had to make isk to buy the books and the +3/+4/+5 implants,wich were a lot more expensive in the past(400 to 500 million isk for each +5 implant before the recent addition of the LP shop),and above all else,5 years of subscription fees to CCP,wich probably isn't too far off 750$ in total.
That would be me btw.....

Edited by: Cpt Branko on 21/01/2008 04:05:42 You are totally forgetting that you're not paying $ to CCP to have this or that, but to have fun, you know?
Now, if you demand something for being a vet which paid 750$ to CCP, then we should surgically remove some 4 years of having fun in EvE from you 
Seriously, people, asking for extra stuff because you played a game for 4 years is lol. Sig removed, inappropriate link. If you would like further details please mail [email protected] ~Saint |

Oh i'm fully aware of that,but along with those 4 years of fun,came a lot of changes,nerfs,re-training other races as the flavor of the month,server crashes,lag....You name it,veterans have put up with a lot of crap that would have made newer players quit by now.
Just showing the other side of the coin so to speak...

High SP characters are in some way like Jovians:
from http://www.eve-online.com/races/jove.asp
Quote: The most mysterious and elusive of all the peoples of EVE, the Jovians number only a fraction of any of their neighbors, but their technological superiority makes them powerful beyond all proportion.
low numbers: check ability to use advanced and expensive technology: check
Quote: But one fateful moment in their history made them lose this control for a few generations, and the results were catastrophic.
some eve players leave, then come back to eve: check
Quote: The disease within them keeps them in a reproductive straightjacket, preventing them from increasing their numbers sufficiently for their current empire to flourish.
being nerds, eve players tend to never have intercourse: check

Rewards for veterans that affect anything in-game is a dumb idea. Why?
You already have 60+ Million SP, more than 90% of EVE's population, and four years of experience.
I'm approaching my 4th anniversary and I only have just over 50 mil. You're mean.
And I say no.
Originally by: DigitalCommunist Being around 4 years doesn't mean you don't suck. 
And for 1 Bil ISK I'll prove this. Contact me ingame with the system you'd like to meet in and your ship and setup. Chances are I'll still die with this info.

why ***** about some wanting to be jove ?
lol anyway. i endorce the idea of becoming jove and would go 0 sp anyday to become one.. you see ever since the old players in the game started we have heard about the jove race etc.. hell some of us even fought em from time to time..`
once i even made a corp who worshiped the jovian wargod in a RP corp-
the jove goes deeper in somes mind than others, and that said i dont see why it shouldent be posible somehow to become a jove. its someones dream to be so..
and yes ccp could favour old players.. without them the new players wouldent be here u know ? if the ld players diddent pay gazilions of isk ower the years there would be no eve. and one day you can become jove to if u choose to so stop whining because some older players actually want the ability to go jove...

I will tell you something though................4 years ago the game was brilliant and you didnt get all the stupid whiners you get on forums like you do now complaining , and wanting things nerfed etc........ I seem to think that the average players age has become about 14 rather than 34 when i started.

Well i bought the "Eve Art" book near christmas, when i saw some of the artistic creation that went into the Jovian race, (not just the ships that look brilliant) i felt that somewhere the other races look rather bland. I don't agree that the race should now become available to any players. It would be nice if we could however fight them now and again.

I find all this vet hate amazing. If players like us didn't stick around for longer than 6 months there would hardly be an Eve. What is the issue anyway? jealous we got into the game before you? WTF?
Anyway, some interesting ideas about Jove. I reckon one day it would be very cool to open up Jove space, make it hard to get to. Maybe offer some form of genetic engineering with a suitable and permenant penalty. No need to limit it to vets, but make it hard to obtain and something you would consider carefully before doing.
I think it is something that should come a few more years down the track. After ambulation is out, after the faction war has raged and ended leaving the cluster completely changed.
Could be very interesting. I'd like to see an Eve where the 'landscape' changes significantly. Interaction with the Jove is too significant to be done soon or lightly.

Posting in a pointless thread!
I'm sure even before the devs want to think what the hell to do with Jove, we'll have chars approaching 200m SP.
Whatever happened to Devs having Jove chars? I miss their ugly faces.

No one hates you for being a veteran, at least not unless they're dummkopfs.
However, I (because I can't speak for anyone other than myself) don't believe you're entitled to anything above and beyond exactly what you've already earned ù i.e., special trinkets and/or ships and/or characters.

This.
I have no problems with vets, but no one should have any additional advantages due to the age of their character. If you want something like a medal, that's fine, but it shouldn't affect anything in-game. ---------------- Tarminic - 31 Million SP in Forum Warfare Play EVE: Downtime Madness v0.78.2 |

In AO they had this fantastic Veteran Points-system where people who has paid for years of game got nice almost useless items.
I wish EVE would somehow reward long customer relationship. 
It's great being Amarr isn't it.

Make it based on account age. If you have been around for 4 years, fine, you can start a Jove character.
What you gonna do with it? Train the same boring stuff that every other race has, in the (almost - not taking into account implants) same amount of time that you have made your other chars. Oh wow, big deal if they get a char.
Compare it to RL if you like (bet you don't :) ), When I started to insure my car on MY own, I had to pay around 1600 EUR per year @ 140% insurance rate. Been driving long enough now and done special courses to have it lower to 70% over time. Been a good customer, no major accidents, no damages in the millions... don't I deserve to have my rates lowered?
Apply the same to here.... you have been a loyal customer for 4 years on your ACCOUNT... here.. take this little 800k SP Jovian buddy, train all the crap you wanna play with it. Fly Amarr ships :)
You know what... nevermind.... guess it's a moot point anyway....

Edited by: Crimsonjade on 21/01/2008 14:22:06 bah bunch of carebears tbh.
only 2 things are needed 1. make a HUGE ISD event!!make it a huge event and make it HUGE not 12 ccp guys against 250 players.. more like 200 ccp employees make a surprise invasion somewhere in random space. a little random destruction is a good thing. ***** to make it happen and yeah some twits would whine. but seeing a Jove capitol fleet would make 99% of your player base go bonkers
2 make it so Chribba can mine in Jove space.. he deserves teh cookie

No Kidding. I dont post much, I can see the decline of thought process in the company we keep lately.
The funny thing is, everyone is complaining about something that either will never happes, or not be that good anyway.
