Righto mates...

Post by Samandred Lekel »

So I'm laying on my bed one day a week or two ago and my brother walks in with a stupified grin on his face that shattered my perfect day dream of standing on a hill surrounded by foes, laying into them with Glamdring. He said he had found us a corp. Finally.

You see, I'd just spent the past few months in the most god-aweful corporation called Redman66 Industrial Mining Corp. Despite the name, they actually specialize in mission running. They have a 40% tax rate and senior members get all the salvaging loot. I didn't complain much because a) all other corps that even appeared tasteful where in other timezones (Like ISRAEL) or b) They were flying BATTLESHIPS. Needless to say, I held my tongue. Long and short of it: its a cashcow. They have a parent corp that does PvP (something I'm looking to master in EVE) but don't let lower class people like me in because im just making them way too much money.

SO when my brother said that he'd found me a corp, my flagging interst in EVE surged. I read that the core belief is in the individual. That creativity and pressence of mind where the flagships - I was elated. Then I saw the 50% rejection rate... lol.

Do I want to take my newly beloved Crow into nullsec? Sure. Do I want to lay waste to enemies in a soon-to-be-mine stealth bomber? Hellyeah. But what I want most is a challenge. I want to learn. I want to be the best I can be. Whatever that ends up being. So if you'll have me along for the ride, good. I'll join you. If not, well, I know what I want. And I plan to find it.

In the meantime, I suppose I'll be solo harrassing Antagonist and his pirate buddies in Mara. lol. Fly safe mates. May you sleep well and wake. ;)

That's a great story. Welcome to the forums.

"Objectivism is not only true, it is great! Why? Because of the volitional work a mind must have performed to reach for the first time so exalted a level of truth—and because of all the glorious effects such knowledge will have on man’s life, all the possibilities of action it opens up for the future." -- Leonard Peikoff

Haha, thanks. I'll be sending it in sometime early this week. I have some RL luggage to rid myself of, and I want to be able to take my time on this.

Yeah, getting rid of the wife/gf/ family is always best before really getting into EVE again.
