Hi guys and girls,
What would you all consider to be the 10 Must Do Things In EVE?
Do you consider one of them to be socialising with good friends in your Corporation or does your wicked side think it is better to befriend a Corporation and then pull off a successful Corp theft?
Are there areas of interest that are must see places?
Is the acquisition of billions of isk a must have goal?
I would be very interested to hear what you all consider the Top 10 Must Do Things

I want so badly to contribute something to this thread, but right now it's late (4:30 am where I'm at) and I really couldn't say it any better than Deviana Sevidon said it. I agree with all 10 of these, and am grateful to have done 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8 (I <3 Wolf-class Assault Ship) and 10 so far.
Cheers Deviana and cheers CCP.

Was a perfect list until #10.
I'd add go to -10 and back at least once.
Some high sec hauler killing in there somewhere (say, you're first kill with loot worth over 15 billion or so).
In the old day's I'd say win your first T2 BPO in the lottery (I never involved myself in industry).
Run your first level 10 complex? Get your first hate mail? Crush your first alliance from the inside out? (done a few of those)

1. Join a player corporation, the game is much more enjoyable when you're playing with other people.
2. Visit low sec, not every low sec system is camped by pirates and the rewards are plenty, whether you're a miner or a mission runner. If you do want to pirate, that's still true, plenty of naive and unprepared players wander through those gates!
3. PVP, it's great. Nothing in EVE will get your heart beating more than the risk of losing your ship to another player, or even better, destroying theirs!
4. Write an interesting back story for your character in your bio, you have post-it notes for damage types.
5. Kill an officer rat, and reap the rewards.
6. Fly a capital ship! There's something quite amazing about undocking in a carrier and having fighters swarm around you. Fly it in a fleet, support your squad, have them support you, capitals are not solopwnmobiles!
7. Train all learning skills to 5. Well, perhaps not Presence. It takes a while to pay back, but if you plan on sticking around it won't hurt to get them out of the way.
8. Use implants. Fill every slot you have, bump your learning attributes, increase your damage output, your mining yield, your shield recharge rate, just don't leave them sat empty.
9. Ask questions, talk to players in local, post on the forums, broaden your knowledge of the game and become better at what you do, then pass it on, help new players and fellow corporation members.
10. Move to 0.0 and live a little, there's more to EVE than shooting NPCs and mining veldspar.

1) Life begins at -10 , pirate people until you get there.
2) Smack in local a few times with some choice words.
3) Fly an inty and zoom around with it.
4) Fly a gank BS and melt people with it.
5) Scam a good chunk of ISK.
6) Find some cool gangmates to hook up with and build something in Eve.
7) Find a suitable nemesis or 2 and crush their dreams in Eve.
8) Fly around the galaxy , visit every corner of 0.0 while dodging blobs and bubblecamps.
9) Fail so hard you can't help laughing about it.
10) Accomplish a personal goal in Eve. You need to have at least one.

1: Low Sec Piracy, preferably in Frigates.
2: Do a large suicide frig \ cruiser gang in to a 0.0 camp hotspot.
3: Stealth bomber gang. Preferably enough to one-volley a Battleship.
4: No such thing as overkill.... use a capital ship to squish a Bantam, Navitas, etc.
5: Fly a Freighter. Absolute pure pain in its raw form.
6: Train Battleship 5. Much more painful than setting up a tower.
7: Set up a POS, so you can understand pain.
8: Fly in to a sun \ planet \ moon, far enough in to get ejected.
9: Stick around long enough to see an Armageddon Day or equivalent.
10: Form your own corp.
If I can add more than 10, for the heck of it:
11: Do some silly setups. Civilian mods on a Dreadnought, small projectiles on a Megathron, etc. And post them on the E-O forums and enjoy the responses.
12: After doing number 1, get some hate mail.
13: Fight at 5 to 1 odds not in your favor or worse and win.
14: Be the only sober guy in a large, drunk roaming gang.
15: Taunt a GM or Dev
Enjoy. I sure as hell have. Still working on 3, 4, 11, and 14, but everything else I've done and its been a blast

this isn't in any particular order and its main the stuff ive only really experienced myself
1) Kill someone in a bigger ship then you 1v1.
2) Then squish his pod.
3) Find the biggest veld roid in the region and then mine it till it pops (with friends would be preferred on ts/vent. )
4) Fly to the Eve Gate. 
5) Run a 50+ man gate camp with bubbles/fighters/recons on it and live.
6) Befriend someone who you will talk to for the rest of your eve life and possible become RL friends.
7) Make your first billion isk. 
8) Play eve for so long that you fall asleep at your pc while on an important fleet op. 
9) Enjoy the thrill of being outnumbered in pvp and still want to fight even if its likely you will die.
10) Become an eve celebrity....or at least meet one in game. |

Well the thread was created with the expectation that players would post with a list of things that they consider "must do" - mainly in terms of ideas that others would find enjoyable and fun 
Obviously we would never create content that was "must do" as that would go against the very nature of the New Eden Universe

Interesting topic.
My list of great memories from years ago...
1) Join a corp.
2) Get over your fear of voice chat. Get drunk on voice chat. Sing .
3) Go on a corp mining op (it's fun the first time ).
4) Visit Eve-Gate.
5) Blow up your first ore thief.
6) Make your first PVP kill. Try and do it without shaking so much you can't press any buttons.
7) Successfully ransom someone .
8) Reach -10 sec status, get a bounty (then cry when you realize how long it will take to get it back up again).
9) Kill a battleship in a very small gang of frigates.
10) Jump into a massive gate camp (live or die who cares).
Wow, I could go on a lot more than 10... didn't realise I had so many fond memories of the game .
Last one: Get Concordokkened.

Are there areas of interest that are must see places?

I would be very interested to hear what you all consider the Top 10 Must Do Things
1) spend months of training for a specific ship and then have it nerfed
2) spend lots of isk on a specific ship and then have it nerfed
3) spend time training a skill to lvl5 and then have the reqs for the next skill reduced so you have a useless lvl5 skill
These are IMHO absolute MUST DOs. If you cannot handle the disappointment connected with these, Eve is probably the wrong game for you 
4) pew
5) more pew
6) make friends
7) pew with friends
8) make enemies
9) pew with enemies
10) mine 25m trit (and start over at 1)

The reason people play any game is to learn, whether it be about risky engagements or trades, learning about social interaction and working with others or whether it be putting yourself in someone else's point of view and trying to judge how they react, how they might feel and what they would do
Thus you must do at least one of the following to really get something out of the game:
1. Play an Amarrian or someone who doesn't conform to your personal beliefs IRL
2. Be involved in a corporation with teamwork, definite aims and direction
3. Get involved in a wide variety of activities and events
4. Be part of a community
The rest, like getting billions of isk, being uber at pvp or launching an outpost is simply a means to those ends, or an arbitrary end / goal to work for
