Blog Banter 16: Words of Wisdom
March 15, 2010 in In Character by Shinzann
Welcome to the sixteenth installment of the EVE Blog Banter, the monthly EVE Online blogging extravaganza created by CrazyKinux. The EVE Blog Banter involves an enthusiastic group of gaming bloggers, a common topic within the realm of EVE Online, and a week to post articles pertaining to the said topic. The resulting articles can either be short or quite extensive, either funny or dead serious, but are always a great fun to read! Any questions about the EVE Blog Banter should be directed to crazykinux@gmail.com. Check out other EVE Blog Banter articles at the bottom of this post!
The third Blog Banter of 2010 comes to us from ChainTrap of the Into the unknown with gun and camera EVE Blog. He asks us: “Eve University turns six years old on March 15th; six years spent helping the new pilots of New Eden gain experience and understanding in a supportive environment. Eve is clearly a complicated game, with a ton to learn, so much that you never stop learning. So, the question is; What do you wish that someone had taken the time to tell you when you were first starting out? Or what have you learned in the interim that you’d like to share with the wider Eve community?”
During the four years I’ve been playing EVE, I’ve come to recognize a few key ideas that make playing EVE a more rewarding experience.
Let me share them with you.
- Always keep your clone up to date
- Only fly what you can afford to lose
- There are no stupid questions. Stupid answers? Definitely.
- It’s only a game. When the Internet Spaceships starts to be too serious a business, it’s time to go outside.
- If you’re just starting out, DO THE TUTORIALS!
- Learning skills are good!
I’d go on and on, but I’m working on my brevity.
Fly safe.
