That’s a great suggestion @Wanda_Fayne, Operation Magic School Bus is a brilliant in-game community project.
I take it all back about wanting your stuff @Potato_Ham. Wanda is right, give it to the bus project if you’re leaving.
You like to save ISK …
… for what purpose?
I understand you - I understand your reasons. I feel similar.

Partake ? Would you mind telling me how I can “partake” when I can’t afford a ship, it’s modules, insurance, ammo…?
Can you tell me how to “partake” when I can’t manufacture what I need to - well, partake?
OH wait, I understand.
I’m supposed to “partake” by getting a Venture, fly to -0.5 and get myself blown out of the skies for another player’s pleasure.
Thanks but NO.
Pew pew in Red Dead or Ass Creed? 
You need to get your head out your azz and realize that EVE isn’t the only game online.
FYI, there is no pew-pew in those games… oh, and they are TRUE open-world sanbox, too. Not like what you’re getting ripped off with.
It just means current eve is not viable to a certain type of player that found eve 2 years ago a delight, the type of player that just wants to horde and not touch pvp.
I literally solo roamed into null a few hours ago, caught a gila in my harpy took it to 10% shield before a myrm, proteus, brutix landed on grid I had to pull range from the gila he warped off and wrote “looser” in local I asked him to come bring a pvp ship to rejoin the fight and he said “I don’t do pvp”.
Now I wonder why null sec - supposed to be the most dangerous space in eve online (which it’s not, low is the most dangerous but that is besides the point) yet it is attracting these people that don’t like combat at all. I do not get it.

Wait how does eve echo’s have more people playing than real eve O_o
4 months ago:
Eve online: players that month 300 000
Eve echo’s: 2 000 000
Might not be entirely accurate as I am pulling peices together from multiple sources but damn that’s insane.
Afraid of what ?? It’s not like we’re gonna lose our lives, is it?
We’re not afraid. I personally don’t see the point of grinding for a week to lose a ship in less than - literally- a minute. That’s not fun, that’s just a waste of a week grinding.
100 to 200m/hour means you can welp 2 to 4 frigs or 1 cruiser/bc, it will probibly take more than an hour to loose your ship thou.
As I said. Because I can’t mine enough to build a ship and don’t have the necessary tools/skills to manufacture and don’t have enough income to buy original blueprints ( if I even find one to buy and can afford it )
only to get it destroyed willy-nilly for someone’s else amusement.
If CCP wants there to be destruction, there’s gotta be construction first. In order for players to construct there’s gotta be materials and in order for there to be materials there’s gotta be ore in stock and for that the ore needs to be found and mined - BLAP! sorry, F-you and your ore
Nope.
All I make when I mine is maybe 1mil an hour. That’s when I’m not ganked.
“it will probibly take more than an hour to loose your ship”
Nope. Last time I got a Venture I lost it less than an hour afterwards.
I mine in 0.4 and 0.3 to even find the ores that are worth more than a penny a ton.
Just buy one
Buy a copy off contracts, or just buy the ship
Hence I mentioned High Sec.
Not a whole lot of suicide ganking L2 and 3 mission runners or escalations.
Markets are not in any danger of running out.
There are many groups (and/or other players) who will gladly supply you with ships if you will fight for their group (or just fight for it’s own sake, as the old Red vs. Blue [RvB] alliance did for years against each other in the “forever war”). Volunteer to fly “hero tackle” for a war fleet, join a faction warfare corp, shoot - if nothing else just enlist in faction warfare and throw yourself at the first orange targets you find and get transformed gloriously into red glowing dust in a spasm of virtual space pixel bushido. Heck - I’ll give you 10 fitted T1 frigates to start with if you want. (yes even *sigh…minmatar ones…)

I did, several already. But all I’m doing is losing ISK and nothing more.
Why can’t I have original blueprints? OH forgot, CCP needs me to spend money for that.
I Ain’t mining in HiSec! F- that. For what ? A bunch of Perite ? Then what ? I’ll need more than Perite to manufacture a ship.
Again, all I’ll be doing is lose ISK. A lose-lose proposition.
With your suggestions all that’s gonna happen is that I’ll run out of ISK - HAVE NO FEAR DEAR CAPSULEER 
there’s - that’s right - PLEX!! YAY JONNY! MORE cash thrown into a game for - that’s right - someone’s else amusement.
NO
Space panhandling ? Not my style. I’m not a bum.
What’s the point of downloading a “sandbox” if I still end up doing what OTHERS want me to do ? In that case I might as well play a linear story-driven rpg.
If you are insuring your ships, the loss is pretty much negiligable on T1s.
Iirc the price for BPOs bought from NPCs hasnt changed in years, if ever?
And T1 ship BPOs arent very expensive.
Hence why I said missions and escalations.
That said, its not that hard to get into low sec in a Venture, but stocking up enough ore and getting it out solo without alts would be time consuming, in most cases.
Not meaning to be rude, but have you considered there may strategies to gain what you want that you havent tried?

It’s not begging at all. It’s being part of a team and that team issuing equipment to it’s members to play the game.
Well…it is an MMO, after all… Players do group up to do things together and of course groups of humans often do have designated leaders (although there are probably groups out there doing a “we are all the leader” kind of thing, dunno). Certainly one can play this game solo and many have, but that can be a way to get bored fairly quickly depending on factors such as temperament and activity engaged in.

This is why Mining needs to be changed 1m/h is terrible but it seems CCP is already on this from the patch notes that we just read.
