This was my problem too. Played in early-mid 2000's, but couldn't commit the time necessary for the real fun. Didn't mind doing the occasional solo, but it's so much better with other people.
I have 3 characters on separates accounts all with 30+ million SP. They are all decent characters. For the last year I haven't found anyone to run with, nor really the time to play anything but casually. Tried applying to a few corps but get kicked out because I don't play enough. The corps that don't kick me out hardly have anyone at all in them. Kind of a catch22.
I am back in the game. Wanted to get my character names engraved onto the monument they are building in Iceland. Not sure if I will stay all that long. The place where I lived is really quiet. Funny thing is that the former CEO of the corp I was in for ages also just rejoined and we are now playing at the same time together.

Bored (and playing some EVE again - not a coincidence). Figured I'd bump this thread give #FAXGATE. Anyone still playing, or is the E and SC buzz taking away all the space nerds?
I've been playing Ark lately. I kind of want to get back into Eve since I have two carriers that I've never even used, but I have so many games on back log that I haven't done it.
Would be interesting with the carrier changes. Still unsure of how the transition will take place. There was massive backlash against the proposed plan (#FAXGATE) and CCP is now rethinking the process.
I feel the same way about a backlog. I'm sitting on hours upon hours of SP games to play (Finish DA:I, play TW:3, Cities:Skylines, Skyrim (never got around to it), Life is Strange, LA Noire, PoE, etc. etc. etc. etc. etc.). There's just something nice about EVE in that I can sit AFK and wait for something incredibly fun to happen while with traditional SP games I can't generally.
So someone already maxed out all the skills (every skill in the game level 5) on a character by purchasing the skill-injectors. Surprised more havn't done that yet. I think it cost something like 2.1 trillion ISK.
Yea, CCP wants to do away with the idea of pantheons/slowcats. Should be interesting to see what happens to capital warfare and I'm really interested to see what comes of the carrier with the new fighters. A true support/dps capital drone boat? Could be fun. I also think that capacitor warfare is going to be big, hoping my Bhaalgorn gets some more action.I get tempted to rejoin everyone and a while and then it goes away.
I do wonder if I have a triage module fit to one of my carriers. Might be worth rejoining just to fit one and get a new ship when the conversion happens.
The refitting rules look like it is a huge blow to people like rooks and kings (who I fought against as FC many times in their much earlier days ... And who I thought were actually not dicks which is a huge compliment in Eve)

Thanks. It was fun playing with you as well.yo martimus o7 You were a good fc.
Martimus - that was the true reason why Diplomatkc Disruption stuck together to the very end. People like you stepping up and leading when we needed it. And I was so glad when you finally found your confidence as an FC so I could relax and just fly in a fleet every once and a while.

Pretty significant changes over the last 3 years, I feel like even moreso than the previous 3. I reactivated almost a year ago, but have fallen idol again for a few months. EVE just requires too much time unfortunately. Might actually sell of all my assets/characters and give it to the Corp once and for all.I just reactivated my EVE accounts after 3+ years. Trying to get a bit of a feel for the game before I jump back into null-sec.
