| − | As a new pilot, and female, I felt more than a little out of my depth in EVE at first. It all seemed so technical and confusing! However, I soon started to understand bits and pieces, and gradually these fragments have started falling together in a jigsaw of understanding. Of course I've barely got the edges done and am many months (or perhaps years!!) away from any kind of completed picture yet!! :P

| − | Listening in on teamspeak and chat, asking questions, and good, old-fashioned trial and error and learning by experience (and disaster!) are going to be the way forward for all newcomers, but there have been some tips and pieces of info that I've found especially useful or enlightening, and I've decided to stick these here in the hope they may help someone else one day!! The tutors at E-UNI are invaluable, but just occasionally I think they forget how it feels to be new in New Eden! These are a few snippets FROM a newb, FOR newbs. I'll add them as I get (or remember) them!!

| − | *Sisters of Eve epic arc: do this with the opposite side to whichever race you are. This will make it easier.
| |
| − | | |
| − | *If your standing with one race is low, you can help regain them by doing missions with their friendly races ie: the Gallente like the Minmatar, so if you do storyline missions for the Minmatar, your Gallente standings will go up. This is because of "Derived Modification".

| − | | |
| − | *When you start getting +2 implants, don't put them in over your +1's, thus destroying them. Get a Jump Clone and put the +2's into that instead (and so on with +3's etc) This way, if you want to try your hand at pvp or something, and dont want to risk your +3 implants, you can take a lower or non-implanted JC: doesn't matter too much if it gets killed but you make use of the lower implants until it does :)

| − | | |
| − | *When you want to start grinding your standings with a corp, research which is the best corp for YOU as they have different benefits and missions. Don't just pick the first one somebody suggests or the most popular, or the closest one! See what kind of missions they give out: are these the ones you enjoy? If you're a fighter pilot, you aren't going to be very happy mining all day!! Check out if they give access to epic arcs, higher level agents, items or ships you want from their LP store... put some time and thought into it and you won't regret it later!

| − | Possibly the most important pieces of advice I would give a newcomer are:
| |
| − | *Join the uni chat channels and TS chat channel EVERY TIME YOU LOG IN. Make it a matter of habit (log-in order for me goes: TS, TS overview so I can see in-game who is speaking, and then EVE!). Even if you don't have a mic on TS or don't chat much at first in the in-game text chat, you'll be amazed how much you learn without even realising it just by listening and reading others questions and answers! And if, like me, you're not too confident at first or are too nervous to ask questions, you'll soon see that nobody ever laughs at a *stupid* question (even if they've answered it 12 times already in the last 4 hours!!). Try just saying 'hello' when you log-in and 'bye' when you go off to start with, and saying 'hi' and 'welcome' etc to others when they arrive or whatever. People soon get to know you (and you get to know them!) and before you know it you'll be answering other peoples questions, chatting away with the other regulars (who have suddenly become friends!), and welcoming newcomers just like I do!! The next step is starting to feel brave enough to join in fleets and FFA's etc... but that's another story methinks (and I'm not *quite* there myself yet, but it'll come soon enough!!)
| |
| − | | |
| − | *Never be afraid to ask if you don't understand something or can't find info you need. The staff and students in E-Uni are really happy to help. In the same way, if you see somebody asking something you know the answer to, shout it out.

| − | TS chat lounge can be surprisingly quiet when there are a high number of people in it. It'd be nice to hear a bit more chat and banter there. It seems to me like there's a small bunch of 'regular talkers' and everyone else tends not to, mostly either for RL reasons (gf asleep etc); because they hate how they sound or just arent brave enough to pipe up yet!! Well, perhaps you can get round RL issues with a headset and/or talking quietly with your mic set louder so we can still hear you (or throw the gf out, sheesh, priorities :D) or something? And if you don't like how you sound, don't worry about it - nobody does I don't think! If you're uncomfortable chatting because you haven't used voice chats before, just go for it - it's something you soon get used to!! Sometimes you'll say 'hi' and get no replies, but don't worry, try again next time or be the one to say hello to the next person! Often people are wrapped up in running their missions or whatever and arent paying attention! Be the one to start a conversation by asking what everyone's up to, or commenting on what you're doing. Again, don't give up if you get a poor response one day, as the next you could start hours of chat between a bunch of people, which is really nice, and makes Eve that much more fun!!

While it may appear that chaos follows 'uu' around, in fact this is not the case. uu and chaos are one and cannot be separated.
uu collects corpses. If you wish to donate a corpse, you can do so by contract or by Chaos Fleet ;)
