ThetaOrionis01 Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 That's the great thing about EVE - there's so much to do it keeps surprising you :D Had a look for a couple of threads about Hera - http://eve-search.com/thread/502031/page/1 & http://myeve.eve-online.com/ingameboard.as...threadID=581902 - a bit of EVE history :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lemming http://i30.tinypic.com/66yw7b.jpg told me about this ship he saw (the owner had been active for 5 years) with 5 mining lasers and drones. So have installed the 2 lasers. Am learning more about drones. Was lucky to find a Calderi ship. Was dreading training for Minmatar ships. This one is called Bantam. http://i26.tinypic.com/j6u236.jpg http://i32.tinypic.com/254x9xw.jpg One Trip of Dense Veldspar= 19767 + 2011 = 22000 scordite6 isk There is this strange thing. I seem to have more money than I had presumed. Don't remember selling anything worthwhile?? http://i25.tinypic.com/dm38ko.jpg Am trying to acquire training on advanced mining and social skills. 080330 1959 Have been mining like crazy. Finally learned how to train my existing skills. About time. Have enough now to set up a corporation. Have also just started experimenting with mining drones. Mining is nearly a spiritual experience. Had time to catch up on my reading list. Am thinking about the name. http://i30.tinypic.com/2hojp51.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samroski Posted March 31, 2008 Author Share Posted March 31, 2008 080330 2306 Nearly jettisoned the drone in trying to deploy it for the first time. Got it working on the next run. Mining is now too quick. Need larger cargo capacity. Saw a ship with a large external cargo container. There were a number of other people mining. http://i31.tinypic.com/2pyw13r.jpg http://i26.tinypic.com/2euh6if.jpg http://i26.tinypic.com/344b8md.jpg http://i28.tinypic.com/2rmbm7l.jpg http://i28.tinypic.com/29ynuir.jpg http://i26.tinypic.com/1zfo315.jpg http://i32.tinypic.com/2lo6whs.jpg http://i26.tinypic.com/ru8kkm.jpg Getting a new ship is not easy around here. Will probably need to train to fly one of theirs. Cross cultural ties can lead to difficult situations. Am working on my social interaction and trying to establish local contacts. This may facilitate acceptance of multiple races in the corporation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chesto Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 Have you REALLY got enough to start your own corp. already!? Kudos. You are focussed, man. That Lemming... looks like an ugly-stick cross between John Wayne, Woody from Toy Story and a hairy sweetbabyJames Taylor. Is that the best portrait the guy could come up with!? My Gee. Looks like he could use hygiene skills.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samroski Posted March 31, 2008 Author Share Posted March 31, 2008 That Lemming... Looks like he could use hygiene skills.... The good thing about EVE is that you are in separate ships :) About the money- yes have enough to start a corp. more so now- as cannot think of a name (that gets accepted) and am continuing to mine-don't know how expensive it will be to run... Remember that some of the people mining in empire will be macro farmers/chinese farmers who will not talk to you! Yes, many of them appeared to be not totally there. I did not try and contact anyone actually. When i said, "Am working on my social interaction and trying to establish local contacts. This may facilitate acceptance of multiple races in the corporation" I meant that I was training my social skill which is a requirement for Ethnic relations needed to set up a multi racial corp.

samroski Posted March 31, 2008 Author Share Posted March 31, 2008 080331 1047 Have been trying to start a new Corporation- but every name that I try has already been registered. http://i31.tinypic.com/2dhsp55.jpg Lemming has suggested some names, but we haven't decided yet. http://i30.tinypic.com/2m4drhf.jpg http://i27.tinypic.com/2n72weg.jpg Somehow Lemming has a blue cross high standing as a pilot. Hopefully he will be a useful Director of the corporation. He has himself expressed his reluctance in becoming a Director, citing his lack of regard for schedules. His lack of regard towards nearly everything has led him into trouble many times. I am positive, though, that he will be great as a Director of our corporation. http://i31.tinypic.com/359bpq9.jpg http://i25.tinypic.com/1816pj.jpg Am continuing to mine in the meantime.

The rental period is for 30 day(s). 2008.04.01 12:18 Empire: Minmatar RepublicSolar System: OsoggurSystem Security Level: 0.5 Found Contraband: Gallente Navy Midshipman Insignia I, Qty: 1Standing Penalty: 0.0Fine: 0 ISK Came to this 0.5 system to check rents and my contra band was confiscated! And an office rental fee of 3,752,919.00 ISK. There are too many numbers in that for it to make much sense except that the 1.0 system appeared to be the cheapest. I should have sold that insignia when I had the chance. D.I.N. is the name of our corporation. we don't have an office for it yet, and may not be able to afford one for a few days.

Found this beautiful place where we can have our office. But will not rent immediately. Am looking around this part of the universe first. Spent about half a million on buying training modules for all sorts of things. Am learning to fly all types of ships and trying to rectify other shortcomings in my initial training. Wish I could go through school again, but too late now. have managed to lose my mining droid for the 5th time! Did not find the first one. The second one I forgot in the asteriod belt 3 times. Fortunately I was mining in the same place - so saw it every time I returned and managed to scoop it back into the bay. This time I cannot locate it. Have decided to mine without it. Mining is pretty quick anyway- and with experimenting with corp management- I hardly have any time to breathe between the trips. Am thinking of making a trip back home to check out things there and maybe identify a site for our regional office there. we have a potential 3rd member of the corp. Kacus is a Glaanete, presently far away. He may have to make his way here. His navigational skills are much better than mine. He was able to chart a route here circumnavigating some low security areas by using only 5 more jumps (total near 30). I wish I could make him a corporate member immediately so he can check out offices for us there (thus the need to have regional offices). Home page of D.I.N.

I meant to ask before: who are these macro and Chinese farmers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark0ne Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 Same as the WoW farmers; people using automated programs, or just people who mine constantly and sell the isk they make to others illegally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
