Fear_Everlasting seems like one of those that hangs around a hub trying to get into pvp fights all the time...
no offense fear, appreciate your help when you give it, just the personna you give off.
Anyway, the corp I joined might actually be what you're looking for, feel free to look me up in-game.
Also, your own presentation is an effort to be worked on, because most people won't go out of their way to help anybody, they'll only help people who are constantly looking for it.
No actually, I'm one of the guys in TEST alliance who leads Newbro roams and teaches people the basics of PvP and fleet etiquette. I usually station spin (or now sit on couch and afk) while helping newbros out in a newb help channel. I found the best advice to someone is to either depending on the situation, let them try it, or yell at them so they don't make the same mistake twice and somewhat like dog training, reinforce positive behavior but give negative behavior shit talking.
I'm fine with your view on me, I'm quite harsh I admit it.

I would not know how i should change my presentation in a positive way without lying.
I am not looking for my hand to be held for every bullet i fire , i however find the PVP aspect of Eve to be very confusing.
I love strategy based games like starcraft II , only the interface of PVP in Eve is very much reliant on the overview, and not so much on the actual visuals on the screen , and i find it to be quite messy during PVP encounters , so probably getting help properly setting up the overview would already help my gameplay by a substantial margin.
I have read quite a bit on it , and 90% of everything PVP related is gloating about achievements, and the rest are floating between wannabe's and actual helpful people.
Do you have any specific ship questions? if you're having overview problems, in fleet fights one of the key things you should have is one of your overview tabs set to showing Red/Yellow/Neutral standings only (no blues, no purples, no nothing) and another set for traveling that shows stargates and shit (make it have reds/yellows/neuts on it too) Extend the overview and make the option available for Transversal and Velocity so you know what you're shooting at. I really can't link you guides I link newbros as you're unable to view any of these links.
