No such thing as a flawless program, much less flawless MMO. Ultimately...the only game that comes close to meeting those specs, but EVE comes close...
Player owned stations.
Community varies on what corp you're in.
Very immersive storyline and graphics.
Plenty of adventure if you know how to find it, and it's not too hard.
You're so busy...you walk away from your PC and you still gaining skills
Kill rats, mine, run missions, kill PC's, get jumped at a gate, defend your station, politics...even drugs.
EVE's only huge draw back is the long travel times, and it can be somewhat monotonous (sp?)...but it's the only game that comes close to what you're describing.
Personally, there are only two real downsides to EVE.
1. If you work out of deep space, it takes a damned long time to get back to civilization, but this isn't a problem for new players.
2. My wife dislikes it, so we play WoW instead
But I love most everything about EVE, I haven't played the game in about a year now and lot's of new stuff has been added (ships, content, and player owned stations). EVE is a great game if you get involved with a Corp...if you try to solo, it can get old quick.
But, a personal look is the best way to learn about the game. http://www.mmorpg.com/eve_trial.cfm That is the link for a 14-day trial, and the community is really good. But EVE is what you make it, most of the fun comes from players interacting with players (friendly or otherwise).
I haven't read the main site, or forums in quite a while...but I worked with a friend that was trying to get me to come back...He still liked it.
And the only true way to find out, is to try the game. EVE is almost 3 years old now, and vets don't like changes that hurt their current play style...so they may not be telling the whole story.
i just don't wanna be screwed out of my mind like i did with WoW, i'd go back to SWG if i didn't feel like i was alone all the time, i feel so alone lol
yeah, but i'm 15 years old and without a credit card, parents are my only means of credit information and if it needs that for me to play for 14 days. I really don't want to bother my parents yet again with another Subscription Fee, i feel bad when i know i'm wasting their money.
yeah but i'm 15 years old and without a credit card, i don't wanna bother my parents with yet another subscription fee, i feel bad when i'm wasting their money, i wanna be SURE that i'm going to be playing this game for awhile, i wanna LOVE it, i wanna be Emersed, i wanna be Addicted!
One of the reasons my wife hated EVE, was because I would spend more time with it than with her. EVE can be a very addicting game, and very immersive.
If you do decide to try it, on the official forums for EVE there is a newbie player forum. There used to be a lot of Corps to help out new players, probably still is. You may want to look into contacting one of them.

i've checked out EVE you can't even exit your spaceship, which is kinda shitty, and it says the social aspect blows
what is there to love? and what is there to hate though? so i know what i'm getting myself into

ok thank you, i think i might just try it after all
Your 15 and cant come up with 50 cents a day?I had a 10 dollar an hour parttime job when i was 15.
Most banks will issue what is called a "secure" credit card.It is based on the money in a account you deposit cash into.If no money you cant use it.
This is also a way of building up credit for yourself.(it is seen as a cc transaction)
Want to ENJOY an mmo?
Dont start a guild and dont be a leader or volunteer to be coleader or captain.
Just play the damn game:)
GAH, $20 for an account!!! screw this!!! EVE blows until further notice lol
