So i been playing EVE for a year now..
« on: 28 Jan 2015, 00:30 »

So i know nobody is gonna care about this thread..but i would just like to share a few milestones i have achieved in my first year
also the idea of this thread is..rather late but bare with me here...


Number one! Becoming involved in PVP

             4 days after i began playing i got on my first kill, a algos https://zkillboard.com/kill/35546844/
        Just a plan everyday Algos, nothing blingy, not a 1v1, just a normal roam kill
At the time i did not think much about it...except now i consider it to be very special as it was my first kill

Number two! dieing in PVP
Its happens with everyone, i learned that
https://zkillboard.com/kill/35547656/
But this condor was also special to me...mainly because on that day, i learned the civilian warp scrambler does jack shit in PVP
Also that was a condor given to me via the tutorial missions


Number Three! Becoming self sufficient
 
When i started playing, everyone gave me a lot of free stuff
2 people gave me a PLEX
i got money from people
A drake  (    .________.)
More money
And a community to be with

But at the time i wanted to have my own money, i want to be bale to give shit out for free like that, just to be self sufficient and buy my own things

So i started PVE at this point, and gridded endlessly for SOE for their probe launchers, this was a nightmare...
I hope i never go back to it..But it was really good money at my skill level, as i was able to buy plex and have money to buy my own stuff.

Then i moved onto incursions a few months later, this is when i started have a pretty large wallet, being able to buy battleships, T3s, and whatever shiny thing i want
hell i bought a pos, worth about 600m..Do i use it? Not really!
HELL i hired fucking forsaken asylum one time to tear down a POCO for 500m..in hi sec

Then i discovered doign dust Obs can net you some really good isk when your corp is under war dec
Also i own 3 accounts that are all active atm

Which brings me to my next milestone

Number four! Dual box!
I never thought i would be a guy to run two accounts...But now i have 3..i got my main, my miner alt..and my soon to be Minnie Sb alt...because i want in on that tribal money

i even have a second monitor hooked up now were i can mange both accounts..i feel as if this really improved my skills at multi tasking when having to mange both of them.

Number five! First t3!

Jamgu is love, Jamgu is life

Number Six! Becoming decent in PVP

https://zkillboard.com/character/94174832/

Its not much, but given how i have more isk destroyed than some vets in the game makes me think im at least decent, i mean i got a low isk lose count, along with a very average k/d ratio

I never really got involved in PVP in MMos, as majority of the time its very bland and serve no purpose unless you are bored out of your mind (imo) but in EVE i found enjoyment of the PVP part..as the battles can be intense and epic, and you can fight for turf, i felt like i was in a battle that was worth a damn..and that what makes PVP special to me



And OOC said i would not last long in EVE...

Anyway just wanted to share...been a fun year so far..can't wait to see what holds this year

Getting on a titan kill will do that, as few people outside null get that opportunity.

That always happens. Take a look at the views/replies on some of the longer running threads (RL pictures for example: 830 Replies, 54565 Views). Don't take it personally, it's just not everyone has anything to add to the discussion.

OOC says a lot of things. Hardly any of them relevant when pertaining to people and their lifespan in EVE.
Do what you want, play your game your way, and damn the man.

Congrats...good luck...and let's see what this year brings.
