I have had this game for a while, but I have barely played it. Not because it is not good, I can see there is huge potential in it. It is because I find it intimidating. Being amongst real, _succeeding_ people! I don’t know where to start and I am afraid to take missions or do anything that might in some way be a nuicance to others.

Now I have got broadband and am therefore thinking about online games. Therefore I am thinking about re-installing Eve and getting into it.

Any dopers also in eve online? If so, any wisdom for me?

Won’t matter. She’s been away all week, and rarely posts on weekends.
