As title says there is nothing left in the game for me to do, I've done missions, mined in 0.0 space, chained BS's when it was allowed and killed countless NPC's. I have 3mil skillpoints and can't think of a single reason to conintue playing eve. pvp just does not interest me at all, mining is just boring and missions seem a complete waste of time oh and trading doesnt really seem possible or at least requires to much effort to find good routes.
At the start you have a reason to continue, save for a better ship, better equipment but when you have the isk to buy many bs's and insure them where do you go from there if your not interested in pvp combat? Game is just so empty it seems.

How about a system that doesnt make you wait a month+ when you want to try something different, make trading possible (e.g. freelancer style) include harder missions and even allow groups to complete missions together against battleship rats. Stop ****ing off player bys screwing up there existing setups. You know, simple things really..

I disagree. If your in a corp, then you can place effort into getting your corp strong, donating stuff, manufacturing stuff, and helping newer members. I find this itself a far better goal than trying to just get better stuff for myself.

But theres no fun factor in doing this? I don't play games to make pretend money for my pretend corp. I want to have some fun when I play.

Well play the game differently. Just coz you can solo a BS spawn in a BS does not mean you have to, go get a group of lunatics in cruisers and see if you can do it, believe me it gets a whole lot more interesting at that point.
Set challanges for yourself by not doing everything the easy way.
We could all sit in apocs with 8 m2s and 10 harvies chewing on rock all day in safe space and make a bundle of isk.
Be boring as hell, fortunately the game has so many things you can explore and do and a myriad different ways to achieve the same basic objectives it could never be boring.
But in the end you have to come to realise maybe you just dont like the game, in which case leave.

I disagree with everything you said except the last bit  I don't mine much at all, theres no reason to take on BS's in cruisers, seems a nice waste of my time to do that.

only thing that will EVER make a game last for years and years is pvp - simple as that.
Your post is a cry for help. You can come back when Shiva hits but if the "ai" is all you are playing with Shiva wont last more than 1-2 month for you.
Btw pvp is not just shooting other people in space. Pvp in Eve is a really broad term.....the trick is to understand that the ONLY entities that will provide a lasting game experience is the other players. The players that help you AND the players that work against you.
My best advice to anybody strugling to find fun in Eve is to look at the major player conflicts in Eve and construct your gaming experience around that in someway. You dont have to be a member of a great corp or a huge alliance. There are many other paths you can take - spy, mercenary, pirate, arms supplier.
..and then again Eve is certainly not for everybody.

Obviously people here who play the game will not agree with me but its interesting to see why you guys keep playing, what your goals are in the game.
