Learn the shortcut keys. Yes. The interface is something.

The game runs on 1 second server ticks. The interface is built around this restriction, and the game is a 2.5D submarine simulator.

The scale is bonkers. You have some systems 90 AU across. You have an entire separate cluster you can only travel to through wormholes, and it's just as large as the main cluster with the stargates. You have approximately 30k players online at peak hours, and they all wouldn't mind killing you.

I'd delete that in-game self-doxx but also you're just setting yourself up for donations now.

You need to get some intact armor plates from a crate, and neut some folks in a Curse. That'll help.

I gravitated towards the Greens, eventually even joining the party itself.

The Linke is a party I grudgingly accept exists, but I've learned enough about DDR-history I can't bring myself to trust a party that was once the SED, a party leading the corrupt state apparatus ...

Welcome to EVE.


Sadly, this is actually a great improvement. Back when I started playing in Winter 2012/2013, the interface confused me so much I stopped playing for a few months after first contact.

Only reading in this forum what people were actually doing in-game made me realize that my brain had just misinterpreted everything the game had told me, and tried again. Nowadays at least the tutorial is less poo poo!

No, luckily this is on the body of a pubbie who left ascee to join turbo (which has a waifu riding a torpedo as its logo.) He must really miss ascee.

you can actually inflate your scrote pretty safely with sterile saline, syringes, needles, and aseptic technique. its a niche kink iirc

the saline just slowly gets absorbed into your blood but in the meantime you got a big round smooth distended nutsack

If anyone wants some care bear drama. Director AAR is set to members and alumni only.

“ 🗒️ **WHC AAR Readers Collection** 🗒️

With the Director AAR now being published it has been brought to my attention that a one-stop collection point for all the AARs touching on the WHC eviction shortly before Christmas would not be a bad idea, hence this soft-ping.

- *Director AAR*: https://forum.eveuniversity.org/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=128420 More than just an AAR, it is also sort of a State of the Uni report, I would personally suggest that everyone reads it even if they are not interested in the WHC side of things. It is long, yes, but worthwhile. Also make sure to check the comments, time permitting

- *FC Team AAR*: https://forum.eveuniversity.org/viewtopic.php?f=186&t=128386 Written by Gideon and the FC Team, it provides a strategic overview of the eviction and the surrounding timeframe

- *Last Stand AAR*: https://forum.eveuniversity.org/viewtopic.php?f=186&t=128251 The boots-on-the-ground AAR by Archemide who was FC for the last stand during the hull timer of The Rock, it also includes a link to a video of the fleet itself

Other AARs and discussions:

- *Friendly Pitchfork Rally*: https://forum.eveuniversity.org/viewtopic.php?f=104&t=128372 A discussion event held by members of the WHC and organized by Professor Academiac to have a grassroots discussion about the WHC eviction, the future of WHC and events surrounding it. The summary will be up soon

- *White 0rchid's/Lonez' Open Letter*: <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1_c0Sgpnj9P3dUNhwX6tHmEVLoKCQhdd-evA-Cal8d6c/edit#heading=h.31oodaast7qv> An AAR/open letter that predates the official ones above and also goes into the past, present and possible future of the WHC

- *Arps'/Zeeroak's podcast*: <https://declarationsofwar.com/269-grinches/> one of EVE's longest running podcasts where Zeeroak gives a recounting of the WHC eviction and lessons learned, it predates some of the AARs

And there you are, if you haven't done so already, you have a lot of reading ahead! 😇”
