1. So what do I do? - in EVE New Citizens Q&A [original thread]
Damien Theodore wrote: Eve has a higher marginal loss than just 15 bucks a month. Opportunity cost wise I can think of Eve as a far more expensive habit than the basic cost of a subscription. The only way that a video game presents an oppor...

2. drone ranges - in EVE New Citizens Q&A [original thread]
Target something you know to be outside of your drone range (e.g. a can) and tell your drones to do something to it (e.g. attack it if it's your can, or orbit if it's something it's a bad life plan to shoot). The resulting error message contains ...

4. So what do I do? - in EVE New Citizens Q&A [original thread]
A month of SP, which is something like 1.5 million SP usually, costs less than a cup of coffee and a deli sandwich. Pointing out that they're technically infinitely more expensive than Dust SP, while true, is kind of fallacious, in that the cost ...

5. So what do I do? - in EVE New Citizens Q&A [original thread]
Find the tutorial agents, and run the tutorial missions, which can be done with 0 sp. Ignore the XBox-achievement nonsense that's supposed to be the new tutorial experience, the only nice thing that can be said about them is... um... they're a thi...

6. Null Sec for Newer Player? - in EVE New Citizens Q&A [original thread]
I wouldn't worry about the new Sov capture mechanics too much, at most they'll make null like 98% PvE instead of the 99.999997% PvE that it was previously. And if the change is actually as dramatic and paradigm-shifting as promised (for the first...

7. The wormhole, the closure and a hull full of loot. - in EVE New Citizens Q&A [original thread]
Losing your hole when you're diving solo isn't all that common, it happens all the time when you're with a group, though. This is why you stick a probe bay on your ship even if you're not "the prober" in your exploration group. I've been screwing...

9. The Overheat Damage Mystery - in EVE New Citizens Q&A [original thread]
90% of the time with this it turns out I just pushed the button without noticing it during pve, was like "oh, ****" and turned it off after a couple cycles, and then forgot about it before I flew home and never hit repair all. Sort of in the same...

11. mission question - in EVE New Citizens Q&A [original thread]
Storyline agents have types just like every other agent. People that are getting Materials for War Preparation every time, for instance, have a distribution subtype agent for the most part. If you're annoyed by this or just want most of your stor...

12. Any advice about my future in EVE? - in EVE New Citizens Q&A [original thread]
Missiles are awesome, but drake's probably pretty out of your way, training-wise, if you're Gallente with your bigger ships (and thus probably more armor-tank trained than shield). Amarr has a bunch of armor/missile and armor/missile+drone boats ...

I continually forget that I don't have the Astrometics block fully trained and give people in my corp (and sometimes the forum) skill advice based around how scanning works for me in practical terms as if it were all Vs.

15. What to do, what to do? - in EVE New Citizens Q&A [original thread]
Join a corporation with people you're actually willing to talk to, and do what they do. Even losing hard in a group is much more fun than being 100% win rate or whatever solo.

17. Not another rant about plex price - in EVE General Discussion [original thread]
The error in the Eve equivalent of currency balance is almost always leaning toward the isk source side rather than the isk sink side, the equivalent of a government issuing a lot more currency than is destroyed. Dips in subscriber numbers can exa...

18. LP Stores - in EVE New Citizens Q&A [original thread]
By default, station services are in the big bar to the right of your ship where it's spinning when you're docked. If you're seeing a person walking instead of a spinning ship while docked, you're doing it wrong, turn it off.

Courier missions are fine, if that's your thing, but do NOT do them as "something to do until you can do L4 combat missions". All that training time in OP's post is, obviously, time spent not training combat abilities you could be training if you...
