Meh, i joined shortly after rmr. After the initial troubles (lol server), CCP did some extremely good work with Revelations, Trinity, Quantum Rise and finally Apochribba. Apo was probably the most awesome expansion ever. Imagine having 1.4k in local playable..that was Apochribba..
What else is there exactly? Factional Warfare suffers from even worse problems as that feature has been completely abandoned already. Empire Wars are the worst experience I've ever had the misfortune of experiencing.
Calling it now: W-Space will soon officially be known as "retirement home" aka r-space.

Honestly...Im casual so i basically do some light exploration and roam low sec in gang killing and wardecing corps that piss me off or that i feel make too much isk in high/low sec.
There are options in Eve, if there wasnt what the hell are the other 85% of the population doing? lol
I played Eve 2 years ago and average people online was about 36k now when i log in i can say its is near 45k average... whoever said people were leaving is wrong. New features of the last patch did recall alot of people to the game (includind me ).
And having 1000 vs 1000 fights WILL lag, it is good to see a 100 vs 100 doing good since in many other games 25 vs 25 are already laggy. Yes Eve promised it would work on really large scales and failed to acheive their target but think about it 100 vs 100 is still 4 times more than other games!
Whiners on this post must have personnal issues with CCP.
You are telling me that only 1000 vs 1000 will lag? Thats not true, go and jump 60 ppl in system you will get crazy 15 min jump lag. Involving log off log in again and hoping that server will work again.
And if you like mining then CCP dont like you, they are killing mining profit again and again.
Also i dont thing anything will change on 23rd of June. CCP is still talking but did nothing to really help us.
Atm Im in Jouvulen, a starting point, local pop is 175 people, no lag, not the shadow of a lag, NOTHING. If your trying to move into Jita maybe you will have lag... its normal!

Becuase of the bots, so people who want to actively mine can't make a penny doing it. They should add like hit boxes for mining and kill the bots.

Btw , for the person that wanted to join the game: Eve has the best community (i admit it even if Im a Wow lover). I dont think that anyother games has an online game radio broadcasted by players doing tournaments, loteries and special events! This is how Eve is special, people to care about the game and are willing to invest their own time/money to make it better.

Learn how servers work, then come again so we can laugh at you. (Here's a hint, Eve is optimized for 56k modems and isdn lines. Even a synchronous 10mbit line won't help you if the server acts like a turd)
(Here's another hint: You're comparing highsec with 0.0/lowsec. Highsec has a lot more physical hardware assigned than 0.0)

They are playing their version of the game, as it should be
Your conversation here is somewhat funny. Sandbox people say, but sometimes there is only one way to play the game. What?
seriously expect anyone to believe that it takes 45 mins for a grid to load.. if the gate was that packed with ships on grid - one humongous gatecamp.. then only an idiot would try to break it by jumping through, they'd jump through on a titan bridge(s) and hit them from behind ffs.. this post is just a random whine with little if any real credibility. probably the only thing he has to give away is a slightly soiled reaper...

You have no idea about 0.0, do you? With the removal of deep space ss, there is no way you're going to get people in via titan bridge without having your entire fleet blackscreen in jump limbo as your cyno dies.

lol should have my pc then i have to wait at least 2 mins let half the fleet jump befor i jump . because if i jump first ill be on my own for some times befor the rest catch up

While faction war has more than it's share of problems it does provide lots of pew pew. The best part is that many corps look down on the militia corps but then have to make up a lot of excuses why they got curb stomped on the battlefield.
So far I've found that being a pirate corp attached to the militia makes for a lot of fun.

null sec is a very small part of Eve.
Only about 15% of the population actually live in Null sec.
There are other things to do in eve, dont totally write Eve off before you atleast attempt the other stuff in game.
Playing: Rift, LotRO
Waiting on: GW2, BP

If you have no idea how eve works after Tyrannis just dont post. You make look yourself silly.
I must agree that community is great in EVE its just CCP who is greedy and dont care.

I'm so broke. I can't even pay attention.

Eve is fun but gets boring after soem time. OVer the past 2 years I've unsubscribed 10 times. But I always come back.
Major server upgrades this month. So your tears were in vain. (to a degree. no way to make up for lost ships)

Good thing my raven is specced to be able to tank at least a minute without the support ship (I run a 2 raven mission team)

If you petition it...will you get your ship and implants back?
No CCP will tell you that their log shows nothing and close petition

@OP- you will find that all other games out there will be extremely easy compared to Eve Online. It is the Eve curse
