This is not (very much of) a whine. This is not (very much of) a complaint. This post is the crystalisation of some thoughts that have been sloshing around my head in a saturated solution of ponder. And I’m sure that Veterans of Eve have heard this a million times, so apologies for that… but [...]

Something about Ysharros’ post about The Secret World beta has been idling at the back of my mind since I read it. A little nagging irritant of a thought, that demands attention, only to dodge behind some other matter when I turn my mind’s eye towards it. This thought has lurked at the periphery for [...]
I’m a sucker for a well done website, and when it includes a personality test, some neat video and is promoting Eve; what’s not to like.

…with grovelling apologies to the spirit of Jane Austen. I first came across this particular piece of luddite politics via Ysharros’ Stylish Corpse. Stropp of Stropp’s World has posted an article about the recent plans from the australian government, that could effectively end the ability of Australian consumers to play MMOs. Whilst I suspect that [...]
When I first started playing Eve (this time), I thought long and hard about my hopes for the game. I like to go into things having an idea of the type of play I’d like to get from my gaming. Coming off the back of serious involvement in WoW, I felt that I’d like to [...]
In the world of MMOs, there are few subjects that get people worked up more than gold selling and buying. Anyone who has frequented any of these games has come across it, the unwanted spam mail imploring you to check out www.goldspammersrus.com; the chat message repeated ad nauseum in the rookie channels; or the alt [...]
Over on Biobreak, Syp has posted an intriguing article on solo gaming in MMOs.
