I kinda agree with Deadflip2, I've so far kept my nose fairly clean but after 12 months I've managed to get hold a lengthy employment history.
Most people now (escepcially new corps) are dubious of the long list coz they think i might be a scammer or corp theif. What they don't realise is that most of the corps i've been in were started by me and then left when they are up and running (or failed).
Like, I don't put my whole job history on my cv so perhaps a change in that might be wise, like only show employment history for the past 4 months, thats an easy enough change

i have been here since beta3, it would be hard to give us a choice of ships colors but maybe a emblem for the ship. say a wolfs head with red eyes or somthing. i like my avatar as is but somthing on my ship as i fly in space would be very cool... and yes im an old man cool was the in word when i was young....

Orriginally, WAY back (some of you old timers might even recall this), CCP spread around the rumor/promise that as characters grew in skill points/age whatever, they would get access to things that would alter thier portrait.
For example, for a fee (they used to say) you could alter your portrait...
Hm... If by CCP you mean players on the forums and if by rumour you mean the true definition of the word.
Seriously though, I don't remember CCP ever saying that but I do remember seeing a great number of posts in the ideas forum, each poster seeming to think his/her idea was innovative and unique, asking for that which you have mentioned.
And following this thread there is always the custom decals for ships thread...
The reason we can't have custom graphics for corporations, ship decals or character background art is the same:
- Too much bandwidth for other players.
- Too much storage space (the images would have to be hosted on the eve servers).
- It would be hard to scale up as the player-base increases.
- It adds a very small benefit to the game for the work required to implement or maintain it.
- Probably key reason why CCP isn't interested: There would invariably be a level of gaudiness brought into the game by certain players, detracting from the game.

i simply think that accounts with 12-15 mill skillpoints should be able to make jovian alts

Well, I agree with what some have said that the millions of skillpoints we older guys have are the reward. Many have also amassed huge wealth.
Of course we want content, events etc. but I don't feel they should be exclusive to us in particular.

I tend to agree with the "Rewards program" type of thing.
We have have all paid for a game which is essentially still in development and at least 6 months+ of being what it was promised. That takes some pretty hard core gamers and loyal customers.
It would be saavy business sense to reward people like that and not forget that although CCP got EVE off the ground it was the player base who keeps it going.
Regards,
OK

imo stat re-assignment would be the best possible thing that could happen to 1 year old players... i would just LOVE to kill off my useless charisma.. 
also.. im pretty sure all the other ppl who created their char at release also did stupid things cuz we were following the lame arse manual which was out of date in beta...

I've only been here since august, but I think features for the old guy would be nice. Modified portraits, change your portraint completely etc.
And obviously being able to move your attributes around would simply be awesome. Being one of those asian characters that might be coming out would be pretty nifty, too.
As for new ship skins, I think we should all be able to customize our ships...

I think it would be nice to have a special ship designed to give to all the 1 year old chars. Just a frigate or Indy of course, but something nice and shiny .

A special anniversery ship would be a great idea, and really really easy to implement once they created the ship.
Could be a ultra quick yacht or something.

I agree with negotiator on this one .I think that anyone who has managed a year in the game should be afforded the privalige of making alterations to thier portraits .After all I dont think that its too much to ask after a year of loyalty and may I say dedication to ccp ?

I don't quite agree. Those of us who started an account a year+ ago have not necessarily been playing a year. Some of us have had breaks, for one reason or another.
If the database can cope, maybe any "reward" should take account of actually playing for a year (rather than holding an account). If the database can't cope, then skillpoints seems a good way of sorting the hard-core from the soft.
Just to declare my interest, account started 5/5/03, skillpoints only 8.5M. Should have logged on to train

Just give us 1 year+ chars the right to change our NAMES PLEASE!!! I don't care about the face as I think I'm kinda cute but my name sux.
Or we could get an official title before our names. IE: "Too lazy to switch game in a year-XeQtR"
Or "Played for 1 year and still don't know **** about the game-XeQtR"

just be glad that if your over a year old you will have fond memories of m0o striking fear into ure gaming experience in the early days with the massive damage caused when stamped heat sinks stacked and heavy mod beams were hitting you for 1200 damage. leaving the station at yz-lql and before you even knew it you were back in ure cloning vat.....that was in the days before small corps were kicked out of alliance space and then called carebears for it....and best of all punishers costing you nearly 1 mill isk sometimes you realise being new in eve isnt as bad as everyone says because its a hell of a lot cheaper now than it was then

Bah... that was the fun of it all!
I remember release very fondly... mining Omber for hours in my Velator to save up and buy an Imicus... the roid belts seemed HUGE back them...
Then working with my corp to be THE first corp in Gallente space to produce Tristans and Iterons... and by the time we were really shifting...
I remember the first Thoraxs on the market, costing a whopping 25Mil ISK (almost unhead of to have that much back then).
The first Armageddon on the market, 185Mil, the first Apoc, 225Mil... ah... those were the days...
People do have it very easy these days, when corps will hand you out frigates and cruisers left, right and center.

Dont know if it was easier or harder being a noob back then.
Sure we had to figure more stuff out by ourselves but on the other hand we didn't have any uptight people in battleships calling us "n00bs" (Except Kayosoni but he wasn't in a battleship)
But yeah stuff was a HELLUVA lot more expensive. Moa 15 million anyone?

I am looking forward to Shiva tho... Because it'll add the high level content (hopefully) that I'm looking for...
I'll enjoy scouting out enemy territory, marking down the locations of their bases, playing hit and run in my black ops frigate...
Eve has some life in it yet... tho it's asleep at the moment, and could do with some CPR...

eve is pronounced dead / asleep prior to every major patch.
It's just us players being impatient and unwilling to buy expensive stuff without knowing exactly how the nerfbat will hit. I remember an overwhealming sence of dullnes prior to castor which was followed by a "OMFG THIS GAME IS SCREWED UP" right after Castor. Then after a few weeks we had all come to terms with the changes and were back to having fun
