The bear is no longer present in space, the reason for that being that while as appealing it sounds that your avatar trains even when you are not off-line it means that there is no levelling. Specifically this means that to me it felt like there was no reward for actually playing the game yourself beyond just earning cash for new ships.
The community and the feeling of the game were quite nice however but were not enough to actually keep me playing this game so no more Eve Online for me.

Bears in space ?
Space, the final frontier...
NOT ANYMORE !
You all must be thinking that i somehow made a starfleet bear but i'm sorry to disappoint you on that, i was looking at Star Trek Online however when i saw the latest news on Eve Online and i was like 'might as well try that, always did seem interesting'.
So here is a screenie of a bear piloting a freighter, quite hazardous to my surroundings and stations that i attempt to dock with however. Damn lack of opposable thumbs ;(
I know i have only played it for a few days so far but i must say it fits a lot better in my current lifestyle then world of warcraft did as (at least so far) you can play it for about one or two hours and still feel you managed to do something. The only problem is that my name was allready taken ;( which meant i had to use my old eq1 name: "Tarskin Ranawen".
Another little game i picked up and play occasionally is Navyfield (Hood server), which means that there is bears in battleships as well (random screenie included) ;P
That was it for the latest update, planning to start using this blog a bit more actively but from now on it will be dedicated to Eve Online, Navyfield and whatever else keeps me occupied as far as gaming goes. This will require a change to the layout and name of the blog however *shrug*.
Furry hug,
Tarskin

Where in the world has tarskin been??
Entertaining the idle hope that some people actually care about more then just warcraft related news i figured i should give those people an update on what has happened to me (aka where have i been):
1. Parrot decided i played too much warcraft
She started plucking her feathers which is quite painful to look at, she comes running to me for help as 'something' is hurting her. She relaxes as she believes i will protect her, followed by her plucking another feather and repeating the cycle.
2. Major stress-related trouble because of master's degree research
The stress of finising my degree combined with writing the thesis and the feather plucking problem turned me into a neurotic that couldn't sleep. That problem got fixed but now i'm going cold turkey on stress/sleep medicine ftw
3. Motor cycle accident during vacation to the french alps
Racing down a slippery mountain road on my Suzuki RF900R (see picture) was not the smartest thing i ever did. I locked up my rear tire going into a turn at 90kph which resulted in me rolling over the road a bit.
4. Busted hands during a 'adventure park' visit
The motor cycle crash took me about 1 week to 'recover' from and when i decided i needed to go out and do something so i went to an adventure park. There i managed to tumble down from a obstacle and like an idiot i tried to hang on to the rope resulting in open/bleeding hands... woot.
The only good thing i really have to mention is that i am now a 'Master of Science' in genetics... Time to start praying for a Ph.d position, which could be a pain because of the credit crunch.
Cheers,
Tar
