I like your attitude, @taurwen_Ichinumi , if you keep up with your learning how to do things better rather than raging and complaining you are poised to potentially enjoy EvE. > [@taurwen\_Ichinumi](#): > > conversation with a group all saying honourable fight thanks. Then when I told them it was not honourable, all I got was hey miner calm down you had no mining certificate etc etc so… a lot of other stuff about hey you should have read… something… Ah. Sounds like you encountered the Noble Knights of the New Order (CODE.)™ whilst they were nobly engaged in the near-thankless laborious task of bringing order to hisec. What they suggested you read was the New Hailama Code of Conduct which is what they enforce. They sell mining(/hauling) permits as part of their program. > [@taurwen\_Ichinumi](#): > > saying honourable fight thanks. It’s kind of considered just good sportsmanship in EvE to say something like “gf” (good fight) regardless of win or lose or any circumstance, really. Even if it was a hundred-to-one ambush or someone that just defeated you badly one-v-one, never complain, never let anybody “get” to you. > [@taurwen\_Ichinumi](#): > > …I like the Amar ships… Excellent, I see that you have good taste. 🙂 > [@taurwen\_Ichinumi](#): > > I play solo - not in it for the fighting (except when I have to defend myself) Certainly EvE _can_ be played solo and many have through the years of EvE’s existence, but personally I suggest folk join a (good - harder to find) corp to learn if nothing else There is also a place in this game for folks who choose to play in other ways than spaceship combat (although this game _is_ a fighting game foundationally…something all too many players seem to forget/ignore…) Maybe check this out: > [@How to find the corp that is right for you](https://forums.eveonline.com/t/how-to-find-the-corp-that-is-right-for-you/4451): > > One of the most frequent questions I see on the Eve forums is “How do you know if a corporation is good or not?” To help each person come to their own answer, I have written a “step by step guide” on how you can make your search for the right corporation (“corp”) easier. Ideally this will help you avoid a long employment history filled with corps you joined and left because you only found out that they didn’t “fit” you after you joined them. I will be the first to admit that I do not have much … Bestower is ok, but I prefer the Sigil. As mentioned above. the microwarpdrive/cloak “trick” (method) is a haulers best friend. o7 --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.eveonline.com/t/i-just-got-ganked-why/287839)._
