Sorrow why not become an ice miner? You can make a haul in white glaze. If it's a bad idea let me know.

my conclusion as well....gah! Got almost 26 mill, but a bit of a grind....of course, what respectable mmorpg comes with no grinding?...lol! At least the grind is a little more enjoyable than clubbing 800 baby seals....

Oh, btw "Will"...I think I'm going to get a Cyclone..I know they are the subject of much debate, but I am a glutton for punishment and if you can learn to outfit a Minmatar ship, you can outfit anything!

Actually i don't know enough about ice mining. From what i've heard form the veterans though is that you can make quite a bit if not the same amount from doing some good hunting against battleships and what not (npcs that is)

besides mining is pretty boring to me ):

In the forum outfitting threads there seemed to be a lot of negativity regarding the general set of Minmatar ships and the Cyclone in particuliar...arguement against usually ran in "tries to be too many things...succeeds in none" vein. I don't really see the prob personally and will go ahead with purchase.

So far, ABXCorps has caldari and gallente races. Get in contact with Qba if you would like to join the Corps. RacingX, have you've tried out the 14 day Eve Trial? If you haven't, then you should. Follow the tutorial. It will guide thru basic training so to speak.

Once you completed the 14 day trial or as much of it as you want, then you can convert you trial account to a paying account. Good luck and have fun with Eve. Oops almost forgot. You can have 3 characters with 1 account. You can join the corps, make a pirate, etc....

Cheers

It is a slower paced game.

Look up "Alex Rogan". He is QBA and is the head of ABXCorp.

I am Karl Halyard. I will send you a little seed money.

Agreed...that was just a convenient link atm, another thing about the object explorer that sorrow references is the ability to check out "faction" equipment and ships, such as the "Machariel"...these are ingame but not in the Eve-Online database for some weird reason. Dunno why the mystery.
