    Don't forget, if you create a XoO division and it goes south, you'll get shit from Dash for not sticking with it longer (longer meaning forever in this case). Save your sanity, and don't even think about making a XoO division.

    How do I know? I had it happen to me.

    We used to have a XoO Eve division. I was in it with a few others from the old guildwars days and Xenzoku.

    Decided to mess around on Eve again for abit, was given my friend's old 30mil SP character so I am just going to roll around in a Command Ship or T3 in low sec. Might start a corp with one of my RL friends, and would welcome company if anyone else is uncorped atm.

    Eve is fun with a couple friends, especially since if you are into mining/trading or if you want something you can play off and on.

    It definitely takes ALOT of getting used to, if you don't do the tutorial you might as well not even play it!

    Although it sucks the big one when your awesome spaceship gets blown to bits and you lose all your phats loots.

    Yea, if I had a way to make that kinda in game money I would be down, but I focused on Ceptor skills so I cant fly any farming ships. Though with the 16 million from skill refunds I could probably skill up to an effective HAC, I was close to being there.

    The ultimate immersion killer in EvE for me was flying through planets. WTF is up with that. Lrn2path

    Gotta agree there. I cringe every time my ship warps through a planet. Lazy coding FTL.

    I also hate how the ships do an instant 180 like they're anchored onto some invisible axle. CCP should look up "trajectory" and "torque" in a dictionary... and while they're at it, learn Newton's laws of motion.

    Well ignore all that and the scale of the planets is totally wrong! The ships are far too large compared to the planets

    It is quite interesting. I know some of my older accounts have so much "cash" in them that this would be worth it in a way.
