Hey folks.
Lately the urge to play eve has pretty much died. The few people i did play with and have actual RP with have left, im terrified to join another corp, both because of what happened with Lutinari and because i dont want my history longer for nothing, and it seems like everyone wants to play the sorts of characters that I am just not comfortable RPing (Sanshas, Angels, rabid amarr slavers, rabid minmatar, basically scummy anything)
I basically have no one to play with, whether in roams or RP or whatever. I have tried twice to make moderate Minny RP corps, once it succeeded, mostly, and then died, the second time, no one ever joined, i suspect because of lingering stuff from TRA? Ive debated remaking Ava, or just scrapping her and starting anew, but I do have a lot of time and stuff invested in her.
No idea what to do.
Ava
That was more or less my feeling 6 months ago when I stopped playing. Ofc I had other issues being other layers of drama and hostility from specific RPers adding to that, but it just made it clearer to me that I had nothing more really keeping me in eve. Every time I logged the past year was just for spinning my ship and watching the summit or other channels I do not really like (not at all to be blunt, which is my own opinion and not a snipe at anyone) hoping to see someone emerging from the masses of people that I had no interest to RP with, for any scraps of RP I could get my hands on.
So yes, all of this made me leave, and that was good somehow, since it was the first time since I started playing (late 2006) that I took a real break. It was weird at the beginning, but I do not regret it and find it quite healthy actually. I found out that a lot of people were basically and insidiously spoiling my experience, and more, my RL life and mood beside it, combined with various RL annoyances, blablabla (you must have seen yourself how bitter and blunt I became on the end). So yes, very healthy.
This is a solution, I guess.
Starting a new toon might work for some people, but not for me, that I am sure. Too many things invested in my character. You just don't dump a 95M SP character like that, and when you already have trouble to find your enjoyment in the game, you will have even more difficulties to find the motivation to start a new blank character....
You can also slightly alter things here and there in your RP, not always the need to radically change everything I think. This is more of a last resort possibility.
Want me to come back and play with you ? I liked to play with you. Not that I am the most active player anymore, and I don't really do in the tribal/minmatar stuff militantism, but well...
