A part of me wants to start playing again, but it bugs me that I'd have to wait a couple months at least to partake in any large fleet battle. Well.. at least well enough to stand a chance and actually do a little damage. I had a mining barge with my last character, even though I made some nice $$$.. it got really boring quickly. Maybe I'll pick this up and play again, I don't know.. I just don't want to start from scratch on my combat skills which is something I'd have to do even with my miner.. well I think my miner has *some* combat skills, but not many.

The time skill system is something I really like about EVE, and something I also really dislike. You can't grind, which is good, and bad.. depending I guess. It's like your looking at your timer and say.. "GO FASTER YOU, MUSH MUSH!!" *snaps whip* ... but nope, nothing. Only thing you can improve is your attributes or whatever that decrease the amount of time it takes to learn something, but even that can take a considerable amount of time.
