Veteran EVE Online pilots share wisdom with new players

would it hurt you guys to put links directly to these things you report about in the article. like the "CCP Fallout" highlighted link should really link to the actual thread your article is about not back to the same article your reading.

CCP Fallout is a woman, not a man. You shouldn't assume the gender. Also, where is the link the the thread in question?

Let's see here...

Ignore all the tutorial crap that teaches you that T2 is something rare and magical, the market is flooded with that stuff.

Never visit a system lower than .5 sec unless you're with some friends. 0.0 sec is right out unless you belong to an Alliance.

Don't try to make money using the market. Economy of scale means the established players will always be able to do it for cheaper than you. In fact, ignore manufacturing in general unless you have a very, very good business plan.

Plan your skill progression with a goal in mind. Certificates can help, but they tend to extend the time it takes to get to a good spot by weeks.

The game rewards perseverance. Don't give up the first time something or someone bad happens to you.

And of course, never fly what you can't afford to lose.
