I didn't notice the lambda in your avatar until your post made me look at it a little more closely. I shoulda noticed sooner because this isn't the only place you're using that avatar.

But yeah, a phoenix describes you very well in EVE... I had to start typing notes on your characters so I could remember that they were you.

I'm still subbed but it's mostly just to keep training skills.

Yeah, the weird thing is... I liked all of them lol. Maybe it was my way of keeping the game interesting.

I just put a 60day code into EVE and I'm lonely. Whats worse is that I'm a veteran NOOB. They changed a metric butt-ton of stuff. I'm basically re-learning the game. I'm doing level 3 missions In a Mael, and so far so good

Anyone want to buy a Loki?

You need to get out of hi sec, join FW and come fight in low-sec. Buy 10 Rifters/Merlins (T1 Frigs) and roam about.

If you need any help let me know in game 'iHex NZ'.

played eve for about six months a while back. i wanted to like it, i really did, but it disappointed me in just about every way.

my character is still probably sitting in the same space station i got sent to after getting podded. i just couldn't be arsed to build another ship.

protip: learn to make a lot of money. When I say a lot, my monthly income with minimal effort is something silly atm like 20 billion isk/month. That translates into 240bn/year, roughly.

I have found, however, that the game becomes LESS interesting, with the more isk I have.

Carry a dozen PLEXs in your cargohold to spice things up then

Still playing I just seem to log in an solo pvp these days. Trying to break into the top 100 on battle clinic.

I really liked this game. I tried the two week trial and was hooked. But, like Electrofreak stated, it just takes too much commitment.

That's why I prefer single player RPG's, or space games like the X series, as well as FPS's (single, multi, mmo) because they are the kind of games you play at your own pace. Back in high school and college I was able to delve into Dark age of Camelot, and the like. Now-a-days, like the Army says, It's a no go. I do miss excessive gaming and I forcefully put effort into not letting myself fall back in it.

PS2 is trying to suck me back into heavy gaming but I'm doing my best not to let it pull me too far in. I've got a family and a career and a new house that needs my attention these days.

How old's the little one these days?

If the have a trial for PS2, I might try it out but it most likely won't go past that. Which is why I mainly stick to the Lounge forum on PSU.

Trial? You didn't know PS2 has been F2P since before it was more than a revamp of PS1?

coming up on 4, it's crazy. I almost miss the days when she couldn't argue with me... but I've got another 14 years or so to get used to it.
