some Capsuleers have an excuse not to play today, as the launcher had instructed them to go ;

CAP  
SUR  
EER  
DAY

Meanwhile on the launcher it is telling us to head to the beach at the sea and play on the sand dunes.

> And this is where I am beginning to nope out. Because just staring at my screen for an hour - after I had to spend 15 minutes checking out zkillboard and looking at the ingame map that does’t offer enough info - **and doing absolutely nothing other than pressing a single button every 20 seconds**  **or so isn’t my definition of fun**.

This is pretty much exactly why I am always bouncing on and off from EvE, playing for a few months and then disappearing for over a year, and am never able to stick around and why I already know I will one day quit for good.

The least fun part of being an EvE online player is actually playing it.  
Doing just about anything is such an absolute hassle, and it is caused in huge parts because of a swath of multiboxing players who will prey on absolutely anyone for any or no reason.

And while it is absolutely possible to deal with all of that, it requires so much time and so much hassle that inevitably I come to the conclusion that those hours are just better spent playing something else.

It’s a time/fun optimization problem.

This thread is still running for over 6 months now, I see the topic has been derailed a few times. I didn’t play _today_ because I was busy killing Garmoth the crimson dragon in Duvencrurne. I think it took us less than 5 minutes to kick his butt. I expect greater things ahead, now that Eve Online is no longer a boat anchor on the good ship _Pearl Abyss_.

While I have yet to play **today** , I do need to log in for my rewards _later_.

Have fun!
