Joined Eve Online in November 2009 and played for 3 months. Went inactive for 5.5 years, and then decided to use the reactivation special CCP offered. Joined Eve University to learn the game mechanics, everything I can from fleet ops to planetary interactions. Each of my toons have specific roles and targeted ships to master.
So many changes have been made in the game, much more user friendly now. In the real world I build elearning programs for a wide range of clients, from surgeons to real estate investors. I am already working on some ideas for immersive asynchronous simulation training for this game. I am enjoying the intellectual challenges as well as the space battles/shoot 'em up aspects.
Everyone of my toons has lost several ships, but the post-mortem analysis shows what was being done right and more importantly what wasn't done so I don't make the same mistakes again. Just lost a Rupture, after easily defeating Dagan in the Epic Arc SOE final mission, I jumped over two systems to pick up some equipment. I scanned going in, checked the locals and docked. Before I exited, I checked local and saw 4 suspects and 1 criminal, made a mental note to scan immediately after exiting and undocked. They were camped right on the exit and blew up my ship immediately.
Post-Mortem:
1) I didn't check to see if they were from the same corporation (they were).
2) I didn't check to see if they were docked in the station with me when I docked. (they were - which is why they didn't show up d-scan coming in)
3) I didn't check to see if they were docked when I was ready to undock (they weren't).
4) I should of logged out of that toon, leaving it safely docked till they got bored and moved on (the criminal has a -7.9 security rating so ganking a T1 fitted Rupture was no biggie).
5) I did have a good pvp travel fit but when one of the gankers did 96% damage in one volley, the other ganker just had to spit out the window to finish me off.
Live and learn! I also have completely revamped the training queue to get core skills ramped up quickly and mastery skills in place for targeted ship so I can fit and fight it correctly.
