I have no idea what was happening in that video but the graphics were cool. I tired the 14 day trial of EVE and quit after 2 days because I had no idea what to do or how anything worked even though I went through the full tutorial.

lol I did the exact same thing but I only lasted like 3 hours and turn that shit off, I had no idea what I was doing or how anything worked.. I knew how to shoot stuff and warp and that was it.
You can't fight the feeling.

I love EVE I just started playing it. But I've run across a lack of fellow TL'ers sadly

Anyway, I was pretty amazed when I logged on and BoB was gone. It's pretty interesting how many ways you can take out your opponent in EVE. The competition is great and just about in every aspect of EVE.

But yeah that post was way too long. I read the first 6 paragraphs haha
Not bad for a cat toy.

Wow, i quit Eve a couple months ago, due to real-life issues, but damn, am i sad i missed this... I really didn't expect BoB to go out like this, but i guess they had it coming. Good to see some territory and political realignment, with BoB gone, GS's old territory up for grabs and the north getting stronger, i guess more conflict is bound to ensue.

I hope i manage to get back into the game sooner rather than later.

I've been away from EvE for a while, can someone clarify:

Is BRUCE (Brutally Clever Empire) still around? Have they been involved in this turmoil?

People play WoW because there is no penalty for stupidity. If you do something wrong in EvE, the potential for loss knows no limits. You can quite literally lose everything you've ever worked for in that game in an instant, if you're that careless with your belongings.

Most people can't handle that.

Man, thinking about that entry, the game just sounds fucking unreal. Sounds what Ultima online used to be like (SKILL BASED PVP, WHERE SHIT MATTERED).

I think the OP referred to trained skills. That is, abilities in the game that you rank up with in order to become more proficient with them. As much as I adore EvE, skill is a small factor when it comes to large-scale PvP. What matters in such engagements is discipline. You need to have a good fleet commander calling the shots, and you, personally, need to be able to listen and act accordingly.

The best part is that this is still going on. No one has any idea whether Goonswarm will be turned back and destroyed, or whether they'll succeed in taking the Delve.

SA is awesome. I read it often and post there time to time. Its quite hilarious how often some guy makes a thread "hey, does anyone play XXXX game?" then few days later someone creates an alliance here, hundreds of goons jump in and wreck shit ingame.

A great read by the way.
My future's so bright, I gotta wear shades.
