Eve Online does have its limits. I think that Eve Online needs to push those limits by expanding space that would require players to locate new solar systems, outside of the main map. First a system node would be needed. Once probed using the best skills possible, a jump gate would be built, by a player corp or NPC corp that would be used to access the new solar system. ---

It used to be a game where you could spend hours with pleasure. Today, it is a shadow of those days, monotonous and boring, with no vision for development and a constant or decreasing number of players. PLEX destroyed the economy, and the game’s twisted logic finished the job. It looks like the creators have lost control over their actions. I come here less and less often to remember the good times. I forgot to mention the super arrogant customer service. ---

Eve is a socialist version of mankind in the future if you allow total corruption and greed to decide the fate of all. ---

Dryson, serious question, and do please give a serious answer? Why do you even still play EvE? You’ve been complaining about the exact same bulls##t for over a f##king decade now. Not a single complaint or argument you’ve had has changed a single bit in over 10 years, yet you continue to come here and waste everyone’s time with arguments no one listens to anymore. Why? Wouldn’t you be much happier playing a game where your ideas of a good game weren’t game ruining for almost everyone else? ---

Unfortunately, the forum archives are down and current one doesn’t quite go back far enough to dig up the “greatest” Dryson Anti-Ganking Brain Fart. Dryson, would you like to remind all the lovely forum people what your “Scissoring” idea was? I may get the specifics wrong if I explain it. It’s been a few years since I re-read the thread for laughs. 😁 ---

Eve online is also about asking questions even when the answer is right in front of your nose! Q;\> do the items that don’t have an expiring date stay there for long or do they need to be consumed straight away? ![IMG_5304](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/eveonline/original/4X/a/d/b/adb52ecf5e809c522c0781facd01bb09c19f12a5.jpeg) ---

What is it with the biggest whiners invariably being people who don’t have a killboard record in 3 or 4 years or more. Again and again and again there is scant evidence that those who whine the most about the game actually even play the game. ---
