I've played Eve for 5 years now (since beta) and after much thought, have decided to hang it up.
Just wanted to say that Eve is still the best sci-fi game out there and though I feel like I really have nothing to show for the last five years, I have enjoyed the time wasted.
Tonight, I dive into the bio shredder and my on-again, off-again 40M SP (yeah yeah, not 5 years worth) existence comes to a close. I'm selfish, so all of my ships, ISK (which is not much), and items will follow. Farewell.

Sad to see anyone leave the game, best of luck in whatever you do!
One tip though, seriously, don't shred your characters or you may regret it in the future.

I'm past that. I've already ended my other two accounts and I'm the last to go.

That requires me to use money IRL that I don't have.

Might be against policy, but as your quitting would it be possible to pass on the account details and bypass having to pay the fee yourself?

How would you tell this apart from an account bought on eBay?

Edited by: Natsuki on 12/05/2008 20:30:30 who cares. if you're leaving why do you feel the need to let us know? no one knows or cares about you in this game. you are a nonfactor so just leave without saying anything especially if you're not gonna even give your char or stuff to people or noobs. just gtfo. -----------------------------------

Normally these threads are online versions of trying to make a pity-party, or to sway peoples feelings against the game so they have people join them in hating it too. I don't really see that in the OP unless its a really well hidden, but crappy, attempt to incite sympathy and hate for the game.
There are unfortunately some losers who leave a game because it didn't work out for them and they feel they must vandalism it as best as they can before they leave it.
I don't see that in the OP though - so, I'm dumbfounded at the reason behind the post. I don't think he's a well known member of EVE, so why the thread?
My best guess is if people say bye, that gives the leaver some sense of being missed and makes leaving easier or something. Dunno. If I ever leave a game and theres not enough people to say goodbye to, I don't say anything of it and just keep it between the few I do know. ____________________

Originally by: Amastat Why is the OP telling us this?
I mean really, why? What's the purpose of goal of this thread. 
I would say the goal of the op is to say that EVE is not a substitute for real life, perhaps some eve players need to look at their lives and do somthing to make it better, its so easy to forget about whats happening in rl when your playing eve.
the dude in op is just saying he needs to move on with his life and cant do it while playing eve. it probably makes him sad that he has to leave, but maybe he just has too.
Some of us spend like 4 to 5 hours per day playing this "game" that time could be used more productivley, doing things such as studying, sleeping, spending time with family.
Just a thought..

Well yea - that's his reason. My question is why he's telling us, not why hes leaving. ____________________

There has to be a reason or motive behind why the OP is telling us he's leaving EVE, and his reasons behind that.
I'm usually good at reading people and their motives - but I'm a bit dumbfounded in this case.
OP please tell me if im wrong, but i think hes a loner like me. hes hidden his corp name and alliance just like i have,
Maybe he just needs to talk? perhaps there are a few people out there that knew him and worked with him, maybe they could have dropped a reply saying good bye and good luck?
The purpose of forums is to write stuff in is it not?
Anyway, op take care and good luck in life,

Telling people who don't care about you you're leaving is like writing a suicide note - it just makes you look like a ****ty attention *****. ***************************** Love is like a war - easy to start, hard to continue, impossible to forget. |

For one who says they are leaving EVE and will never return, you are logging into the forums to check your posts a lot. 
What are you trying to prove, or do? ____________________
