    in reply: newbie links, list of active shackers, and recommended corps
    shacknews channel in-game (idle there and ask questions!)

    I have about 10 missions to go in the servant sisters of eve epic arc. It's ok and would be great for like, brand new players who just finished the tutorials, but I find it a bit dull because I can't form any kind of empathic connection to the agents. In modern RPGs they're always speaking to you, have great animation, etc. Here it's some text and a weak plotline. Back to other stuff after this arc is done!

    Shack, please support my 'sell multiple items' idea with a post or two in assembly hall:
    http://www.eveonline.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=1273846 and the features forum,
    http://www.eveonline.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=1273697

    Lastly, today is my birthday, give daddy some isk ok thanks.
