Can confirm. I spent over 15 years in EvE, and only had PvP forced on me 7 or 8 times in that entire period. No rollercoaster or race track has given me an adrenaline rush like having my Rorquals dropped on by some stealth bombers and interceptors.

I still get twitchy if I hear the words, "Check check."

Oh yeah, the other thing that I just don't understand is that people say that EvE players are toxic. Yes they want to kill you, but they are the friendliest bunch of murderous assholes ever. In my experience, if they kill a newbee, and the newbee doesn't become horribly toxic about it, they'll normally end up reimbursing you for your loss, sometimes several times over.
