Hey Shade!
Your situation sounds a lot like mine! I started playing back in 2011, stopped in 2015, and then just recently came back to the game and I’m loving the game again.
I also wanted to relearn the game and find a group that was energetic, welcoming to newer players (or returning players who needed to relearn the game), and people who have lives outside of EVE. Blackwall Fortress ticked all of those boxes.
We’re part of BRAVE, so there’s always some kind of PvP content going on. Whether it’s home defense, solo roams, small gang roams, or larger fleet ops, we’ve got a ton going on, especially as we move into the holiday season when people have more time! Blackwall doesn’t have fleet requirements, so you won’t get booted if you end up having stuff come up in real life and can’t make it to every fleet or x fleets per month.
There’s also the freedom to do your own thing. I head out of alliance space and do scanning and hacking regularly. We have Rat and Chats where we fly through high value PVE sites to earn isk while chatting away, and there are regular mining fleets that are supported by Porpoises and Rorquals.
Whatever you’re into, I think you’ll really like Blackwall. Feel free to see out full ad below and drop into our Discord to chat, shoot the breeze, and just get to know a few of the people in the corp!
Hope to see you soon!
