I cannot believe I recognize many of the names of posters here
through all the years and whiskey. Okay, mostly whiskey.
Sooo, how's everyone been?
PS - Joli still scares me.

Either no one remembers me, or you all still hate me for
leaving...
I'm banking on the latter...
I hope you guys are all doing well, and good luck in Eve.

Wow... so I totally forgot I made the two posts way long ago.
Scary, but I still remember making fun of Terranus for his name.
Wow, those were the days...
And Thirler and all the times I read his name and thought it said
'Thriller' ...
Well, life for me is going well. Life for my computer on the other
hand... I built it in Sept. of 2008 and something has died but I
haven't had time to figure out what yet. PSU or HD maybe, those are
my guesses.
How's this Eve Online game work? Is it really a lot of fun? How
much time is really necessary to be put in on a daily/weekly basis?
What's the cost per month?
I used to play World of Warcrack but I gave that up nearly a year
ago. There was just something about playing a game that was, 50% of
the time, a lot of fun but the other 50% of the time I wanted to
stab something out of frustration. They've also kind of ruined the
game in a sense with some of the changes they made before I
quit.
Anyways, hopefully I can remember to check this out in a week or so
to see if anyone responds!

So I've decided I want to check this game out, it looks rather
interesting. I'm downloading the client now, can someone kindly
point me in the right direction of what home area I want to start
with in case I decide to keep playing and want to reunite with
those of you that I remember?

Its very easy to move after a while. We are closest to caldari
space though. (Lonetrek).

Fear not Murdoc, I won't be around. I tried the game out but I
quickly realized that the free trial wasn't really the full game
because they limit quite a few things out of it, which is just
silly. I did not really enjoy the game too much to be honest.
That, and my app to Arrow was rejected because 'we dont accept self
referrals' and even that took 4 weeks. Either your development team
is still a little green in the Arrow history or you didn't teach
them the 'dark' part of Arrow's history.
Hope all is well with you guys and that you're all enjoying the
game.

Could you name a few of those things, and why you would want to use
them?

It's been almost 5 years since Arrow moved on. Few of the current
Arrow members have played Earth, even fewer played Earth with
Arrow. To suggest that all directors should be told about every old
Arrow member is madness.
Arrow's policy is that every applicant needs a sponser. If you'd
really want to join Arrow, it shouldn't be too hard for you to find
one.

Estel - For one of the missions I did I had to build a ship. I
later found out I couldn't even use that ship. I want to see it was
a frigate or frigate class, but that was a few weeks ago so I'm not
entirely sure on the details.
As far as my other comment, that was meant more as a joke than
anything. I was certainly not trying to insult your or anyone else.
Arrow policy is Arrow policy, that's fine and that's totally
acceptable. What kind of does not make sense then is, if that is
policy, why did it take 4 weeks for them to say no?
In any case, I don't really care - It makes no difference now
because I chose not to continue playing. The game reminded me of an
old (scratch that, REALLY old) PC game I used to play named
Privateer. It brought back lots of old memories of that game but
that was really about all it did for me.

Sounds like a skill issue, not a trial restriction. The only real
trial restriction is on industrials. Some other ship skills are
restricted, but they are way too advanced to even be able to fly
during a trial.
Due to its skill system EVE can be a bit slow to start. It'll take
a while before you're out of the "damn, I need another skill for
that" phase, but that's what makes EVE EVE.
If EVE is not for you, so be it; you should never play a game you
don't like.
But if you stopped playing because you feel you're somehow
restricted due to lack of skills/knowledge/isk, that can be
helped.

Privateer 2 was perhaps the greatest (and most under-rated)
computer game of all time. I don't think I've ever been engaged so
thoroughly and for so long by any other single-player game.
