Wait, Ravenpoe sent me a 21-day trial link to my email a couple of weeks ago, but when I clicked on it today it says FREE 14-DAY TRIAL ACCOUNT SIGN UP
did the 21-day one expire or is that normal and I'll still get 21? Checking before I register anything.

I clicked the link Poe sent me. It all still says 14-day. When Ferahgo said i'll still get 21 I proceeded to register... and still see 14. I'm now downloading, but i keeps specifically saying "14-day trial".
Sigh, I think I just lost 7 days of trial.

2 faults so far for EvE, first the 21-day link that didn't work for no specified reason, second the auto-installer refused to download the game because it said I didn't have enough disk space even though I kept pointing it at an installation destination in the partition that has 55+ gigs.

Well dunno why you didnt get the 21, probably because you waited to long but don't see why that should have affected it. Second, its not tied to your email, you can have multiple accounts to your name/email/payment ect. And as to why it won't download right, /shrug, get a better computer lol

gotten the 21 day trial? wha? Don't buy me stuff, Turbo, you have nice kids to buy stuff for, and as much as I'd like to be your son (you're certainly old enough) it's better if I just take up your offer of crashing on your couch whenever I'm in your area during my grand world trip I'll someday do before I'm old...

Oh for FUCK'S sake...
Spent 2 fraking hours downloading the EVE client.... and it's of no fucking use because it will NOT let me specify where it wants to FUCKING extract the package and is VEHEMENT to do it in a temporary folder in the OS's partition where there is NO FUCKING SPACE because that's NOT the partition I use to SAVE stuff so I don't need more than a gig or 2 of leeway.
No, no, forget the fact that's there's a PERFECTLY GOOD partition right in the same hard drive with OVER 50 GODDAMNED GIGS FREE FOR IT TO SHIT ALL OVER!
so, yeah, unless you guys have any ideas on how to circumvent this fucking STUPID coding error on EVE's part, I'm not gonna be able to join you guys in your cool awesome game there.
gorram it, i swear, it's like they don't WANT me to get hooked and pay them.

Hmm I have a partition and I got it to work fine for me. Don't remember how exactly that all went down but I don't explicitly remember having to do any tinkering.
As to Mav's remarks, yes there are definitely pvp things you can do within the first weeks of the game. Lord Rendar ganked a couple of guys right from the get go. And like they said, Baerdog will be able to fly a battlecruiser soon but is already flying one of the baddest cruisers in the game, the Rupture, and when he gets that thing dialed in he'll be a legitimate threat to many targets.
@Crone, you may want to consider the corp because it allows you to freely shoot your corpmates even in highsec space, which would normally get you shot down. I think you see where I'm going here. =)

The game play definitely feels different since I stoppedf playing around Quantum rise, that's for sure. And while I appreciate the "offer" if calejjanaijackaroo isn't going to play then I might not stay plast my trial either, because it still feels like SuperBang and Boom Microsoft Excel 98. Tell you how pavlovian it was, before I scrubbed the crash course i was setting skills. Queue is a new addition.

Calleja. I've seen some posts about how to install eve on a partitioned hard drive, but I can't look at them right now since I am at work. It may be worth a second try?
Crone. Put in an ap to corp, you don't need no stinky calleja.
Also, does anyone know how I can change the title of the thread? Wan't it to say something like "EvE online Hal Industries, join us"
That's about right. Here's one ofa couple basic pvp rifter fits (not sure exactly what will fit in your powergrid/cpu, so increase or decrease the size of your ac's to get it as tight as possible:

So no one has any ideas on how to get the installer to extract the package somewhere where there's actual space? I tried googling this and people HAVE complained about the same problem, but haven't really seen any solutions.
Some other forum mentioned doing it with winrar? how can I open a .exe with winrar so I can manually extract it? Argh, you have no idea how much this is pissing me off.

is it isanely impossible to shuffle stuff temporaily out of the extraction folder it wants to like a USB key, and then shuffle things back?

Once we get to a certain point we will actually need a secured forum space in here, as in no one but our corp members can access it, due to the issues with spies/etc. At this point though that's not an issue in the slightest.
Calleja, really sorry about the problems you are having. I will look for some stuff when I get off of work, can other people google around for him as well? Hopefully we can get you in.
Also, Crone, since your admittedly OCD about skill queing, I assume you already have EvEMon right? If not getitgetitgetitgetitgetitgetitgetit

The partition for OS/partition for everything else system has worked for me perfectly for years... any time I want to re-format or re-install windows I can do so without having to back anything up nor having to worry about losing anything. This is the first time any software has gotten a stick up its ass about it.
Yeah, pretty much, cause there's NOTHING on the partition it wants to extract to but the OS stuff, so I'd have to gut Windows7, which I don't think is a good idea. I've tried clearing everything that might be there, temporary files, recycle bin, etc. Hell, I even compacted the registry, to no avail.

but yeah, I play on a Mac Pro. im not inclined to partition it, install windows 7 and install Eve and Eve mon. For the moment, I'm just getting learning for implants anyway...
and atm I cant even get Evemon's page from battle clinic to load.

Ok, so I'll describe the problem specifically so you guys know what I'm up against.
The "non-manual" installation file, that is the small .exe you can download which then proceeds to try and download the main client itself, DOES let you choose where to save stuff.... but even if you point it at a destination that's in the storage partition, it refuses to download it claiming there's not enough space. Apparently it only checks in the OS partition for space. Stupid. When it fails it gives you a link to a "manual" installation file, which is pretty much you just downloading the 2.4~ GB file. Fine, I downloaded that.. RIGHT to the storage partition, mind you.
When that finally finished downloading I run THAT... and it instantly starts unpacking itself.. onto a temporary destination in the OS partition. There's even a "browse" button that should let you choose where you want it to unpack, but it's always grayed out, there's no pause between you running the .exe and it beginning the extraction. Since it won't let you choose where to unpack itself (even though it teases you with the grayed out option) it will eventually fail (after a few long minutes of it trying, mind you, this time it DOESN'T check before.. stupid) and tell you there's not enough space. Well no shit, sherlock.
