Its the highly competetive environment in Eve.scouthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07994643028647737694noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9201285385835181355.post-92097711714175742422007-07-18T10:18:00.000-04:002007-07-18T10:18:00.000-04:00I've found that the EvE community has a more matur...I've found that the EvE community has a more mature feel to it, perhaps it's the fact that the game is so in depth and ...well its not shallow so that is a turn off for some less mature pilots. <BR/><BR/>:)<BR/>-alaphAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9201285385835181355.post-89030953630200175512007-07-17T15:59:00.000-04:002007-07-17T15:59:00.000-04:00I think we're lucky to have found the E-Uni people...I think we're lucky to have found the E-Uni people. It's pretty rare to find a group like that in an mmorpg. You're right, part of it is because Eve is one big world, and everyone with a desire to either teach or learn has a chance to find each other. In any other mmorpg, like-minded people are shunted off to different servers. I think it's a little easier to find a peer group in Eve. <BR/><BR/>I liked how Mythic handled PvP in Dark Age of Camelot. You weren't able to speak to people in other realms, all you could do was emote. It was easier to ignore rude people who used childish emotes, but it also meant a lot more when someone took the time to express their thanks or respect for a good fight.<BR/><BR/>It seems a lot easier to be a jerk in WoW than Eve. Maybe that has to do with the fact that a lot of us are really just one character. You can't play an alt, be a jerk, then go back to your main. Your reputation matters more in Eve, I suspect.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9201285385835181355.post-87351987464939894402007-07-16T09:28:00.000-04:002007-07-16T09:28:00.000-04:00I can totally relate was working on upgrading the ...I can totally relate was working on upgrading the fittings for my Abaddon and the wife dragged me from the pc for a minute, it seems my drones killed the remaining npc in the mission that spawned reinforcements and i was in a pod when i got back to my pc.

I've tried warcraft for a month and i havent been smacktalked so much in my 3 years of EVE. All because i killed someone 1 lvl below me. Ah well. The complexity of EVE really does weed out a lot of those kind of players and i'm glad. <BR/><BR/>good luck with the Myrm btw.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
