I've been keeping tabs on this thread for a few weeks now and really getting the urge to resub my old 2 month account made in 2008 and join up. I actually almost got fired playing the market while at work (I used to play the market up to 4-8 hours a day while at work ) made just over 1BIL within 2.5 weeks by just sitting in Jita with +4-5 implants in my head with no clones skilling up like a carebear. I was in eve uni just before I stopped playing so I’m not a complete newb!
I'll drop in SCBW within a few days once I resub! GL with the war!

I would like to join  Ive had my acc for over 2 years now with around 7-9 months actual playtime. Pretty much all my time was spent PvPing/Pirate. I flew with Monsters and racked up around 70 kills in 2 weeks for around 1.4 billion in damage and ended up only losing a drake and a shit ton of thrashers (hulkaggendon ^-^).. Currently cross training into min as I started caldari. Also, I can't go into hi-sec (-9.9sec Yarr!). IGN: BagelsBuns

Was not talking to you, what you wrote was perfect, just a general comment.

I'v been chilling in SCBW for a few days now ( as Zeromii if anyone has seen me), I'm halfway into my 14 day trial and im going to be picking the game up at the end of it. So far I'm really enjoying it now that I'm past the first couple days of OMGWTFBBQ. I'v been doing a bunch of stuff so far just to test out what I like and dont like. I'm getting curious about PvP now and am wondering if I can join you guys and help out in the war. I know I'm going to be put in a rifter and be cannon fodder/tackler(maybe?) I have the skills to do these things in game and I'm sure I can learn what a need to do in PvP quickly.
edit: I know I'm new to TL, mostly didnt have an account cause all I did was watch streams and stuff. If you have any concerns about spying please fell free to talk to me and I'm sure you'll figure out I'm an Eve noob.

I'm bord at work so I'm going to ask a few questions about ships. Feel free to tell me to GTFO or dont answer if you dont feel like it.
Right now I'm flying a Tristan and I want to upgrade. I started cross training to fly a rifter and also picked up destroyer skill. Looking at the destroyers I think im just going to skip them and go for a cruiser. I hear on the eve boards that railguns arnt so great and that your better going to projectile weapons so a minm ship. Is this just what a few people think or is this the normal for PvP? I was thinking of sticking Gallentte and getting up to a Thorax and maybe fitting it out for some long range sniping. What do you guys think about this plan? I dont mind cross training but if I can get away without doing it and get into a larger ship faster I would like to.

Railguns are the longest range weapons in the game, and do more damage than projectile weapons. However, because projectile weapons have a selection of all damage types instead of just kinetic/thermal, they tend to do more effective damage.
The power of the Gallente, in my opinion, is their specialization in drones. Rather than cross training in an entirely new race, cross train in to drones. Your primary damage will be your little minions, and you can supplement that with railguns. Drones have the added advantage of also being able to make use of electronic warfare and propulsion jamming, and are fucking hard to get rid of unless you have smartbombs equipped (LOL).

Errr don't frigates rape drones?

only short range guns, and if you have web, and drones has no skills, and pilot is a dumb that don call his dornes back when getting hurt.... so... idk...

Frigates do well against drones, but gallente drone ships have the ability to carry more than one stack of several types of drones. Scout drones, while paper thin, will kill a tech1 frigate before it can do any damage, and will kill tech2 frigates before they have a chance to do any meaningful damage.
