I'm not trolling, 0.0 gets lame after you are freed from the shackles of POS warfare.
Give it a while, you will see.
Been running sov holding towers in 0.0 for almost eight months now, haven't seen it yet. Also been Participating in 0.0 Sov warfare for about 12 months now.
I never remember what the hell POS is supposed to stand for. planetary orbiting station or something? what were they thinking with that acronym? I do believe it's already taken.
After 5 trial accounts I finally purchased the game. It's odd being 10 months old and having only 1.9m skillpoints.
Anyway, I'll app to MRCHI tonight or tomorrow night. Or should I do some of this new Militia/war oriented stuff first? Is it worth the standings increase/decrease?

Make sure you can get to MerchI without going through space of empires that'd blast you if you joined the militia. Only thing I can think of.
well that's a new record... lured back to the game by the 14 days free, spend like an hour trying to remind myself how to even sort of play, figuring out how to outfit my ship, etc. decide to do a level 1 mission to see if I remember how to kill anything, and get killed by a player on my very first jump. Yep, suffice to say, every time I come back to this game, I remember why I never really got into it - that realization just comes quicker every time.

Because you're careless? It's because you're careless, right?
I'm not trying to troll you but that is a pretty weird reason. "Heh I died once fuck this game".
I actually spent a few minutes trying out different replies to this thread, different replies to what you said. There are a number of things I could have said but, honestly, this game is just not for either of you. Not at all.
And I've been doing the firesale mambo. Godamn there's some nice deals on shit in geminate right now, I'm just waiting for us to take over the q-t station to get a couple other things out. Been up late moving things around. I'm glad the region is utterly dead, I've been flying around in partially fit, unstabbed ships with 0 dps and tanks and moving them up to empire.
In other news, I'll be flying in a newly acquired Eos in a month or so :awesome:
Careless? Well, if someone logging in after a year who happens to have resumed playing in a .4 sec zone and barely remembers how to move can be considered careless, then yeah, I was careless. And I'm not even QQing over a lost ship - however, the very thought that I would have to buy a new one, go pick it up, and fly around finding all new fittings for it, just for the privilege of being able to grind rats or missions or mining, or just to get pwned again, is brain-melting. So yes, I imagine the game is indeed not for me, as much as I wanted it to be
I'd say 0.1-0.4 zones are more dangerous than 0.0 really.
In 0.0 you might lose a ship to enemies, but in low sec you'll have every 2-bit pirate and thief looking for an easy kill coming after you.
Pirates don't last long in 0.0 because they have nowhere to dock. Low sec is great for them because they don't need to join a large corp to hold space, and they have access to high-sec shopping.

Had the same thing happen with me, it was there a few days back but my skill hadn't finished yet so I figured I'd take the free time after that but now its gone
.4s are the worst places in the game to be period.
QFT, I think most every new player wanders into 0.4 early on in their career and gets raped by some high SP low IQ retards. Low sec really is filled with those types. 0.0 is far easier to live in (mostly cos 90% of it is fucking empty and someone coming into the system is obvious).

Once I'm in lowsec it's fine, but fuck those borderline highsec/lowsec system transitions, so many camps when I'm just looking for a relatively decent 1v1 or whatever fight. Not so much fun when it's my vexor vs 3+ command ships.

So, my buddy picked up a Dread Guristas Cruise Missile Battery blueprint. It's a copy and has a limit of 3. That means that it can't be copied and after making three batteries it disappears, right? Anyway, Neither he nor I really know what he should do. Is it worth producing and selling the three batteries? If so, how much? (There's none on the market to compare to). Or is it better to try to sell the blueprint?
I'll admit to being a pubbie for the time being. Maybe soon I'll get out to 0.0 once I've got a solid T2 setup for my Myrm.
For now, I'm sticking it out in hi-sec, grinding L3's and ganging L4's with a coworker while I'm working on training. The point of the training is 7x 425 T2's on a Mega at at least 150km.
So two questions...
Is sniper DPS something that Merch will be likely to use come Christmas?
aaaaand....
Would it be possible to join up, despite being hi-sec/PvE oriented, just to pick up whatever knowledge I can while I'm working towards those rails?
I do plan to start PvPing, and sniping is definitely what my goal is.

I can't speak for everyone, but I prefer buying tower mod BPCs as opposed to the mod themselves as the BPCs are much more easily transported. Unfortunately for you, cruise missile batteries aren't very desirable because they go offline if the tower is reinforced. Most people turn to Amarr or Minmatar towers when they want to turn them into combat deathstars.

You can join up with Merch Industrial whenever you want, and strategic fleets are always looking for more sniping BS pilots.

So what should we do with the BPC? Can you sell it on the open market? If so, what's a decent price for it?
I just got into Eve about 4 days ago, and so far I think it's pretty cool.
So far the only resources I use is the Eve online main site and Eve wiki. Are there any other noob guides I can use(specifically for when I should upgrade my weapon platforms, what to specialize as Gallente other than drones, etc etc)?

Short of maybe capital ship pilots, T2 gun sniping BS are probably the most wanted fleet ship. You'd be welcome to join, but it would complicate your life - We're always at war with someone or other, and PvP between two warring pilots is completely unregulated even in high sec empire. If they see you they'll probably try to kill you.
And of course you'll probably get bored of missions long before christmas. But if you can handle level 3 missions you can probably handle most rat spawns out in E-Pr0s, so feel free to join and come out if you're getting bored.

I probably will as it's already a bit tedious. When I get back from a short, net-less vacation I'm about to take, maybe I'll just look right into it.
Also, complicated can be entertaining. Thanks for the heads up.

No idea on the going rate on that BPC. You'd have to use contracts, and if you contract it out of Jita, you'll have the best chance of someone being interested in buying it (if the price is right).

Theres a gurista cruise battery 3 run BPC on auction contract in jita for 5m atm. The dread version is presumably better, but as others have noted cruise batteries are not great so I wouldn't expect more than maybe 10-15 m for it.
So I stopped playing for a while due to real life garbage. A while being about a year. Anyway, had a spot of fun while I was playing and have lots of time on my hands now. Is it still pretty much x up with goons and go shoot shit or have things changed in any way?
Also, didn't see a reply to it in an earlier thread other than but have my mains/alts been kicked from merchi yet? I would assume yes with the whole dues thing now but eh. Giacomo Lutz/Snipes123us/alts?
I'll be logging in today to check on stuff, see if the dude who was supposed to be training my skills kept it up for a decent lengh of time. I know he stopped a looong ass time ago but I was close as hell to some nice ships.

Yeah you would have been kicked in a census.
So if you are in 0.0 when you log in, don't undock. Clone jump somewhere you can re-apply.

The days of x'ing are over usually, unless you're going out with one of our allied allainces, you can just go to the website of current fleets to join, or click the link in chat.
Snipers are always welcome.
And someone make some large mobile warp disruptors, I want to camp the azn gate, because seriously I'm tired of listening to the cries of panic from our nubs. Might encourage them to participate in the joys of gatecamping.
I'm a nubcicle and I would love to camp AZN gate. Love. It. Plus I can now fly a Raven and maybe even fit it. Not so much pay for one, but theoretically yeah.
I helped camp the azn gate the other day. Even bumped and decloaked that fucker twice. Of course being only 8km from the gate my web did little to keep him from jumping back out. But hey I shot a few missiles his way and hurt him a little. Then followed poor john knox through in his raven and lost my suicide merlin trying to save him.

OK so Evemon officially hates me. I've renewed my API key about half a dozen times now, cleared the cache, reinstalled, re-downloaded, tried the full API key... the works. I open Evemon and my character names appear, but it can't seem to connect. There's no wallet balance, portrait, corp, and of course skills. The little pizza-circle thingy in the top-right just keeps flashing.

I wouldn't want it either if people kept taking it from me.
