Eve Online....

I've been surprised at how easy it's been to detach myself from my old mains's/alts and trial characters. I'm still doing some quick skill update's but I'm glad to be no longer lingering or ship spinning with them. My two "newer" Alpha main's are all but trained up. These two characters were born of the old 60 day account codes from the collectors edition's. A fitting use of the time before they were invalidated. They have about two weeks of training from being maxed out on the Alpha's skill set. My PVP character is still the lesser used of the two. I've maybe logged in once a week to update his skills. The corp he is in is all talk and little show, I've seem more corp mail's about missioning on him than on my PVE character. I may need to join in a null corp to make his PVP a proper career. My instinct now is to go with a null corp I've been in previously.
On the PVE front my character has been progressing through level 3 missions to gain both standings and isk. War dec's have left the level 4 mission and mining fleets inactive. All activity is at ones own risk. Still I'm at the far end of the corp's space so I have plenty of warning on War targets. Level 3 missions are short and easy enough to get through in war time. I've also done a little mining and BPO research. Having only one slot for research is a limit but at least it can be done. I like that the structures in his home region allow repair via tether, its a nice feature or the citadels.
With the lack of training to do I got to park my main "good implant" clone in his old Caldari HQ and flew a fresh clone with only basic slot 6 to 10 implants. I also got enough isk from missioning to buy a new Gnosis for this new area and potential level 4 mission fleets in the future. He is well set in this new are/corp.
What I like about this corp is that they take a lot of lower SP characters in frigates, destroyers, cruisers and some logi cruisers into level 4 missions. It's a fun inclusive way of getting the level 4's done.
They have also been doing mining fleets with 10% ore for the corp, 10% for the Orca boost and the rest divided between all participants. Again it's a nice way of getting the lower skilled/newer characters to both participate and earn isk.
