Hmmm, what keeps me paying my 4 subs. Its a hobby I guess. It's been good fun running my own pen n paper corp made up of myself. Noone ever whines on mining ops or has to drop out of a small roaming gang cause his mom got home and wants to use the computer when its time to pew pew. Plus the biggest draw to keep me here is the fact that all other ships are actual players and not a bunch of scripted npc like in the game X3. It's simply the best sandbox style game I've ever played with only your own limits limiting you in the majority of cases.
Long Live Eve!

I quit playing a while ago because i was suicide-ganked in my cnr in highsec.
A game where someone can kill a ship that has equipped a tanking setup worth billions, and with this ruin another players game expirience in a non-pvp situations (no, suicideganking is not real pvp), doing this in "high security" and basically at no cost (insurance 4tw) is a game of grief - i don't want to play "grief online" anymore, so any other game i'd abandon completely.
This is another reason I have stuck with Eve over the years. Seeing Darwin work his evolutionary magic in realtime is priceless.

You must be joking. EVE does not model Darwinian evolution. If the game was truly Darwinian, griefing would have long ago become as relatively rare in-game as it is in real life. But it can't because potential Darwinian mechanisms by which players might be able to stop griefing themselves are disallowed, and this disallowing is the very means by which CCP captures some of the market that other games reject. EVE is a griefer's paradise by design, because CCP are smart and have found a niche for the kinds of players other games reject. The rest of the players either tolerate this situation for the sake of the rest of the benefits of the game, or leave.
I call bull****. Only the strong survive here. The weak come and cry on the forums looking for someone else to solve their problems for them instead of using thier God given grey matter to figure it out by themself.
