Fast forward 10 years → How does one get back in it? Is there any tools out there to help returning players get back in it? ---

Start a new pilot on a new account using a referral link from your old account. The new account gets decent bonus stuff, you quickly get a reminder of play mechanics, and while you’re checking the new account you’ll get various updates and reminders from the help channels. ---

I might have missed some offsite api based websites but I feel that I had covered the main group. Happy travels and welcome back. ---

The fact is that most regular people have quit the game. This last account has 190 days left which there will be no logging in. CCP you know what you screwed up and now your paying the price. There are other games out there that are not full time jobs where you are surrounded by narcissists whom can not even see they helped bring the game to its end. Golf Clapp, Well done. My advice save your money and run. ---

> [@Xucca](#): > > -Did you get tools out there the first time? Guessing this was directed to me though it didn’t pop up as a reply. The tools meaning the API? or knowedge on where to find the websites? I had read about some, been told about others. It is like EveOnline requires a welcome package for new Capsuleers. In saying this I recall recently reading up that CCP wants to look at delivering more ingame tools, so I guess could this be where we now are to be directing response? As for the site names mentioned months ago, hadn’t changed and are found within the search on this forum. > Dotlan, zkill, fuzzwork, evewho, eveboard, and character-bazaar —\>\> CSM anyone?

Not 4 U. I was implying that new players seldom worry about such things “tools out there” … it’s kinda vague… I always see EVE as a buddy game. I think one has to mingle to get updates on what’s around. [Next page](https://forums.eveonline.com/t/back-in-game-again-hanging-on-to-old-times/374151.md?page=2)
