SPACE.COM
When it was first released, interested but connection (and finances for better connection) was not good enough to play.
So no sub.... then.
Oh the lost SP
If only I knew about skill training then....

I have never talked with the person or been part of his corporation/guild, but I remember reading about EVE for the first time when Killgorde (Cutting Edge Incorporated) was talking about the game on the DAoC forums.
I joined in a week before the open beta ended. |

For me it was an article in PC Gamer about that guiding hand social club backstabbery and espionage.
decided to give it a go and waited for ever for the client to download whilst drinking large amounts of stella artois at a mates house.
Came back a little worse for wear, which lead to my character looking so darn sexy as he does. i have
been on here without a break for 3 years now and i fully expect to be here when the servers die

I was active and starting to get semi bored of WoW back then, when a gaming friend asked me to join EVE. She was already a month old in the game or something and I downloaded the trial. I remember fully I upgraded it to normal account the next day, as I wanted to train for Industrials :) |

A friend of mine told me about a spaceships game that was really hard to play and all.
Me being a sci-fi fan I had to start playing obviously.
My friend didnt outlive the trial, I did

I discovered it about three years ago whilst looking for a new MMO to replace Guild Wars [by that point I had realised it was a repetitive piece of rubbish] and stumbled on EVE just through browsing websites and talking to people on the X2/X3 forums at egosoft.com. Didn't give it a try until 2 years ago though, when my server in LOTRO suddenly died within the space of a week.

I was refusing to play any MMORPG for long time because I knew that I am rpg addict... after sometime, when my life is more settled I decided to risk it and I was looking for the most complex / difficult one... I hope I did good choice (so far so good)... but I am addicted already (luckily wife loves me and is willing to switch training of skill during the day...) .. on both accounts...

I was in SWG when the NGE-hammer hit. A lot of people were searching for alternatives which do not include g@y elves. EVE was passed around as the only SciFi alternative but a great number of people did not even consider it for the lack of avatars... if WiS were implemented back then the SWG servers would be totally empty by now.

I watched a buddy at work play the game about 5 years or so ago. I tried it at first but really didn't like it. I then thought about trying it during May of '06 and been playing it ever since. |

bought the boxed version in my local game shop when it was released for red moon rising, tried it for 2 days and thought it sucked and uninstalled it, came back about 8 months later to try it again as freelancer kept crashing and I wanted to mess about with some spaceships and remembered eve and decided I would give it another shot even tho it felt awkward and boring, that was 3 years ago. |

Was still looking for a good MMORPG when my beloved Ultima Online went all Trammel(carebear) on me.
Read about this cool open sandbox style sci-fi MMORPG and managed to get into beta. Had tried a few games in the time I played Eve but nothing compares so I'm stil hooked.

Read a review in PC Gamer in 2003 and thought it sounded pretty good, but i was into another MMO at the time called Planetside, couple of months after i got bored of that (now into 2004) i was browsing a Games shop and saw Eve on Sale for ś5 or ś10, thought ''what the hell'' and bought it.
initaly i didnt get into EvE but by the end of my trial i was hooked and havent stoped playing since, except with the occational work related diversion  (like atm)

Friend of mine played beta and told me abouit it when I saw shiny spaceships on his computer. I made it in just for Armageddon Day (only to be late for ships - sold out - and getting ganked after a few jumps by some big ship vs my tiny ship).
He flew to London to buy half a dozen EVE boxes on release day (wasn't available in germany right away) for the 2 of us and some friends.

I first heard about it on a short random between programs review on the sky sci-fi channelą thought it would be a random mindless first person shooter sort of thing and didnĘt even try it till two years laterą An epic fail on my part |

I used to play a korean based MMO called Navyfield, an ocean combat based mmo.
I rage quitted that game though as they sold us out.
I'll give you an idea why explained through eve.
Imagine if CCP opened an item mall shop, launched a unique premium battleship that costs $10, that you could use at any level of skillpoints, that had 10 high, med and low slots, and 5 times the hitpoints of any other battleship, respawns at station and when you logged in the nexy day 99/100 people were flying one.
So I went looking for another MMO to play.
Warcraft and Everquest didn't interest me, was sick of final fantasy'ish type themed mmo crap then.
Eve online however, looked interesting because of the purrty graphics, although I almost didn't bother trying it since everyone I asked about it said it was really boring.
I think I thought the same when I started playing too, but apparently I got hooked in the end.
Despite being griefed by terrible game mechanics and certain people, I'm pretty much wise to everything now so it's only these days the most that I can settle down and enjoy eve.
I think the risk factor was what sold it to me in the end and made me stick around, the fact that everything you carry around with you is gone if you die. As I think it should always be in an MMO.

None of us discovered Eve. The gate was found thousands of years ago. Dn't you read the backstory?
Pfft.

I had just about had my fill of my passtime with Earth2025, gotten banned from SWG forums pre-release and was well bored of every map in CS, kept rotating back to Azzzztec every other round anyways...
Then one of the guys at work mentioned EVE, Elite MMO where the titans moved moons. I had just gotten the connection and machine to run MMOs, Asherons Call with me getting stills on the modem had had me wary ever since. Almost 6 years later and still here, bought the original box when it was on shelves.

The reason why i started playing Eve was this blog : http://00experiment.blogspot.com/
Also the fact that i love spaceships and sci-fi just made it a total win !
