Well, since that big wipeout, my old EVE Online thread was erased. I see some other members finally decided to try EVE Online so here's a new thread.
You can post your ships, fittings, advice, questions, etc. in this thread.
And to everyone who bought it during the sale, welcome o7

A Catalyst with 3 light electron blaster 1's with antimatter charges, 3 ep-5 gaussian excavation pulses, and a civilian booster shield 1. baddood; I occasionally drop two expanded cargo bays on it when I'm just mining. I can't keep it like that for missions though cause it makes my ship wayyy too slow. When I did get attacked mining I couldn't even catch up to the pirate.
I also added you to my contact list. :3
My character is named ValaM alDoran
totally didn't steal that name from Stargate SG-1

I take it you're Gallente, good choice comrade Reichdood;
I could give you some ships so you can specialize them with combat, mining, etc.
It's bad to focus a ship on multiple things.
Like the Navitas frigate:
Gallente Frigate Skill Bonus: 5% bonus to cargo capacity and 20% bonus to mining laser yield per skill level.
Role Bonus: -60% mining laser capacitor use
Look at what ships give certain bonuses. Also, make sure your core learning skills are up.

Yea I ended up being a Gallente cause they seemed cool baddood;
What is a good mining ship? I have a Navitas should I just use that for mining even though it has a smaller sized cargo bay?

Can you fly a Procurer yet? Or a Vexor?
If not go with a Navitas. What system do you mine in?

I'm closer to a Vexor than Procurer so I probably will set up my skills over the next few days to get one of those.
And it depends on whatever system I am in for quests and such. I can't remember the name of the one I am in now but I do remember it is .8 security. Where are some good mining spots?

Will do.
How long have you been playing EVE?

A year. I stopped for a couple months after my trial was up though.

Also, the number one rule of EVE is to not fly what you can't afford to lose.
You will die, and you will make mistakes. I'd suggest joining a good corp to help learn the ropes.
I haven't made a mistake yet baddood;
I made all my mistakes I hope to make in the trial n_u

Did you go in .4 to .1 sec systems or 0.0 sec systems?

Nope nor do I plan to yet
What I did do in the trial however was attack a ship much bigger than myself n_u then have the police come after me.

The Vexor is a great ship. n_u
How's it coming along?

I got it yesterday and it is awesome baddood;
I've been using it for pure missioning at the moment so I have it equipped out with three medium sized hybrid railguns so I just am wiping through the enemies they throw at me like they are nothing n_u
I'm also getting my learning abilities and all up then getting combat drones later today so I can safely use my vexor for mining without worrying about pirates.
And I lost my vexor madood; stupid drones madood;
I sold my Megathron
(http://www.tarski.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/eve_megathron.jpg)
And decided to downgrade to the Dominix. It's so much easier to fit and it's great with drones. It has a 375 m3 drone bay RUB IT
I also can fit two large armor repairer IIs on the low slots. (Not to mention I gained 28 mil isk from downgrading)
(http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/eve/images/e/e7/Dominix.jpg)
I'm going to bring it down to our Alliance Sovereignty space and kill some rats (1.1 mil or more isk bounty each RUB IT)
I got finally my retriever and have been mining away giggle;
I have a friend hauling for me and we are pulling 700k each time we fill his iteron 3
soooon we are gonna be having two retrievers and a hauler and its gonna be awesome
Well, I finally decided to quit the corp I've been with since December. The CEO won't be pleased to find out but he hasn't been on recently. I decided to try out null sec and become a pirate wariodood;
