Was going to post this in the Out of Pod experience but rules state it can't be related to Eve >_>
So, how has Eve Online inspired your real-life?
My experience, for example, was that I had a sudden and dramatic shift in interest career-wise that I decided to start going to school for a degree in Biomedical Engineering..! |

More star trek, but eve does help keep my vision.
Going to start Physics soon. So lasers and whatnot! Yeah. (probably go into particle physics though)
Large volumes of highly researched Ammo, drones, charges and ship bpo's. Biggest BPO store in EVE!

It hasn't. It's a game...
How exactly did the game influence your inspiration? |

The entire idea of implants and Capsule usage, combined with other ideas of Cybernetic devices really appeals to me. Biomedical Engineering has only recently been considered it's own field, previously you had to get two separate degrees. It's my intent to eventually research and develop things like this. |

^^ Lol
it certainly makes me want to fly space ships and shoot things ..
but in all honesty the most I could hope is for it to continue to offer fun distraction at work when I've other things to be thinking about, but would rather not .. |

Myself and 5 mates set an 18 wheeler on fire so we could steal it's precious cargo, we then beat the driver to death with baseball bats as he tried to escape the blaze on his mobility scooter.

I use my time running eve corporations and FC'ing "team building, organizing, and management" experience. If you've tried to build and run a corp, you know exactly why this is an experience in team building, organizing, and management. Especially with the user interface!  |

Why does the OP and I look almost alike?
Anyways, since I work for a procurement company that buys parts used for missiles made in Brazil, Eve Online has actually taught me to be better at procurement since my main is an industrial. Interesting, huh?

Well, now I like to randomly walk up to people I don't know in the street and punch them in the face, then say, "Haha owned, more tears *****."
So my life has been enriched in that way.

- I'm contemplating messing with the stock market because I understand buy/sell orders on EVE.
- I'm also going for a career change to get the hell out of retail, because I hate not having energy or time to actually play this goddamn game. |

The last time a door-to-door salesman came around hawking his crap I told him to "Go back to Jita you n00b!"
He had no idea what the hell I was talking about.

- I hate other humans more, selfish needy/greedy whiners looking out for themselves and don't respect anyone else.
- Less trust for random individuals = less socializing, not going to let someone gank my **** when I invite them in my house
- Have made very few donations to charities anymore, ******* beggers. Homeless "chose" what happened to them, not my problem
- A rage that I if I even met another EVE online person I didn't know, as soon as they said "Oh, I play EVE as.." they wouldn't finish the sentence before I popped them int the face.
Thanks guys! |
