Little kids don't play this game, it's too hard and takes too much dedication. I've yet to meet anyone in this game who wasn't at least 17. The vast majority of people who play eve are mid 20's college students. This game takes brains, patience, fortitude and attitude at the right times for the right reasons. Try to realize that because of how unforgiving eve is and because of how sharp the learning curve is, the vast majority of people just give up after just 1 or 2 weeks. So if you try EVE and get the impressions that everyone is a major dick. This post will hopefully provide some context (if you even bothered to read it) ![]() However, if you do have thick skin, if you are mentally tough, if you do listen to critisism (even when they are dicks about it) and keep going, keep learning, keep improving, keep researching, and keep asking the right questions ( the right question is something you have already looked up and still don't get), you will find that the hatchery is fucking awesome. You will fly in fleets outnumbered 4 to 1 and crush your opponents. You will have more isk than you can keep track of, and you will have a great time tasting the delicious tears of the weak. You will learn more about this game in a few months than most of it's players have learned in years. Most of all you will make some great friends, spend a lot of timing laughing till you cry, and stand with those who were forged in fire and emerged as steel. + Show Spoiler + ...

So close! ok then, lets try something else: ratting nyx down (by rats) and its api verified! http://a-fsb.name/kb/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=58210 | ||

Of note: 7 capital components, 4 frigates, 2 destroyers, handful of cruisers, six BCs (including all four tier 3s), and the tech2 gyro. edit: just looked up how much those BPOs cost. BCs and gyro are the only ones of note. I never realized how cheap the rest of those were. | ||

Then I saw that it was a bad idea, unless people just wanted to dick around. Fucking caldari cruisers with no hybrid damage bonus. And fucking Zealots are too good. | ||

I quickly called for some aid, and got an absolutely disproportionate response from Hatchery members. While they were getting ready for combat, I led the enemy fleet on a merry chase around the system. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to isolate anything to land any kills on my own. Eventually, I led them to the station, where they proceeded to "camp" me in. We had like 9 people in place at this point. I undocked, chewed some blue, and got ready to channel all power to the shields, in the off chance that, despite the fact that we thought they had scouted our fleet, they decided to attack me...and decide they did, without me even agressing on anything...hokay. Our fleet jumped in as I proceeded to bait tank a bit, allowing myself to drop into armor very quickly. The 14 au warp didn't take our fleet long, but in the time it took, their whole fleet, motivated by the fact that my tank was "failing" had closed to 0 on me to unleash their full damage, which, considering their gunboats, was fairly substantial. Even after seeing the local spike, they continued to pelt away at me. I put full heat to my invulnerability field and boosters, both shield and capacitor, and did my best to keep their gunboats from tracking me - which was not much since I was triple webbed by the huginn. Our fleet landed and, even though they still stayed to try and finish me - my hull was getting quite low at this point, and not by choice - for around another 20 seconds while I continued to valiantly tank their damage, we failed to properly spread points, and a majority of their fleet bailed. Bummer. Oh and before this whole thing went down, their kitsune got itself blown up by jamming the station instead of me. Nice. http://teamliquid.killmail.org/?a=kill_related&kll_id=12123964 | ||
