At the launch of Viridian. I rejoined eve to do veldspar mining. The rhythm of mining goes well with the rhythm of newborn bottle feeding. Gooseflock was suggested to me by steam friend who also, long ago, mined while bottle feeding infants. I spent my first month in High/Low sec to shake the rust off my fingers. The new AIR Program took me a month of semi-casual play to complete the stuff I likes, about 3 months to cap out the big bar with all the skillpoints. I lost like 2 or 3 ships in a bad beat and I became a lil salty bitch about it, but the nice folks in the Corp read my posts and tossed a 100 million in funisk at me. Later I got the anniversary isk and it seemed like the most normal thing in the world. It was listed as "hey new members, just join the 4 comms channels we got and log in to your dash board and we will contract you the yearly isk" By this point I had seen the moon logs and the amount of isk given to me seemed in line with what was being generated. The anniversary cash freed me: it let me buy all the fancy ships that I skilled up for, it let me blow those ships up while learning, and it made the videogame fun to play. After a month or so I made the move to sov space to make an Industrial Index number go up. The infrastructure in place was immaculate, two very nice spots in nulsec. The moon schedule was available and well put together. I did not go to WH, but I saw what kind of infrastructure they set up in J space and it was luxurious. Then last Friday my 3rd Omega purchase ran out and it looks like everything exploded so I'm gonna move on to the next MMO tour MMOHMO takes me. Palia is looking good. . Anyways thanks geese, thanks doomers, and thank you to all the haters and losers.

Rhymenoserous posted:I didn’t like have a major hate for her or anything, I just said she was a dipshit which is downright high praise compared to my opinion of most eve news personalities. She also had the rather unfortunate job of being the community lead for an eve spin-off game that nobody wanted or played. oh she was a dummy in the sense of 'made bad points/arguments' yeah, but the amount of flak eve people threw at her (goons and non-goons) was absolutely mental in comparison to what she was saying/doing pre, during, and post working for CCP.

yeah mintchip was kind of a lovely person in my v limited interactions with her, and also didn't deserve the horrendous treatment she got. turns out two things can simultaneously be bad without automatically being equivalent OR making one of them good

Mekchu posted:mintchip was not bad at all and everyone freaking out over her then and later on are insane There's a new(er) eve girls discord called Waifus with Knifus and it's great. Lots of support and good bullshitting across party lines. I'm @calanthe in discord if any would like an invite. There used to be an in-game channel called Women Gamers of Eve but that's long dead, and the gal who ran it was uh... sure was somethin. Siresnswarm still technically exists but it's very sleepy. Mirana's mostly afk and I'm in sig-l but I'm also not really doing anything with it. Jay Derkin posted:I've not actually seen any woman hate first hand over the years I've played EVE. Though that time has been almost entirely in GSF where that poo poo isn't tolerated, so it may skew my overall view of the game. I know you're banned now (rip lololol) but like.. No poo poo. You're not the target audience here, are you? Think this through. Imagine if I, a white lady in the American Southwest, said that I haven't see any racism against Black people over the years I've lived here. A) I'm not the target audience, B) the Black population in my entire state is like 3%, and C) my experience is not universal. Just because I don't see something doesn't mean it doesn't exist or isn't an issue. It's just not an issue for me, and "gently caress you, got mine" is a terrible MO in general. Also, to the point that CCP doesn't do much about harassment, I have a friend who was getting loving vile messages very very frequently in-game. Dude thought he was being slick bc as soon as she'd block him, he'd just spin up a new account. She said that she reported him for a while but nothing was done so she dropped it for a loooong time. She reported him again this year with allll the receipts of like idk dozens of messages and CCP like hellbanned him and she hasn't gotten a message since. So sometimes thing are done, but CCP can for sure do better. twigplant fucked around with this message at 15:12 on Aug 31, 2023 |

Maybe my boss will give me a raise if I tell her I need to pay for an EVE subscription. On the other hand, knowing my luck, she'll be in NCdot.

imperiusdamian posted:I was hoping to try PLEXing my account from playing as an alpha clone. yeah don't try this it sucks so bad. Even if you're making literally US federal minimum wage you can pay for an account with less than a day of work, and if you're making anything remotely resembling a living wage it's like, an hour or less. And then you can actually do things in eve that are.. well okay 'fun' might be overegging it but 'not soul-crushingly miserable'. eventually, with a well-developed character, you can make enough to make plexing your account with isk more worthwhile, but trying to do it before that point requires devoting your every waking moment to having the most miserable time you can have in eve online, and all for the privilege of doing it again the next month

imperiusdamian posted:I was hoping to try PLEXing my account from playing as an alpha clone. the trick is to get the isk to plex 2x or so and do it once, or sub once and just buy stuff and resell it until you have enough money to generate enough to pay for a sub via passive trading, then you never have to pay cash or grind use the ttc in perimeter, train accounting V brokers V, and flip plex infinite idle-game money as long as you make small purchases & sales to keep yourself from getting owned by big orders blocking you out, once you're up to 10-15bn in the market you can pay for yr plex by updating orders only once or twice a day & it scales upwards pretty much forever with wealth on one char so the effort needed only gets lower

I just got back into EVE after 10 years away from posting and gaming (where I travelled Latin America and ended upworking for George Santos), and I gotta say it's bizarre that people are still talking about stuff like Mintchip, stuff I barely remember, as if it was yesterday. The whole game feels like it's been preserved in Amber.

I think it moved to one of the Sotiyos either in Perimeter or maybe New Caldari? Now that the TTC Keepstar is gone I just do all of my trading in Jita 4-4. There are other stations that have changed their names recently to masquerade as the replacement market station with extremely high taxes. Surely they've fooled some people because it keeps happening.
