Well I tried to come up whit a good one but ended up with this joke what do you think :

Why did the capsuleer bring a blanket to a gate camp?

One day, a friend who had never played Eve Online before decided to try it and started asking me which faction she should choose. I started to explain ship designs, philosophy, and weapon systems, but I really struggled to explain Minmatar for some reason.

Then it came to me:

Imagine you are in a wheelchair with flat tires, going down the stairs with a pair of Uzis duct-taped to the handles to shoot backward.

She instantly fell in love and created a Brutor tribe capsuleer. And her fav ship is still AC Ruppie >_<

EZ, this bounty is going to be fun. Can't wait to read more Eve jokes!

This one actually came for the Rogue AI ChatGPT bot on the official Eve server a short time after they made that channel. Although I seriously doubt the bot came up with the joke and I wonder if someone programmed it as a straight up set answer for the question "please tell me an Eve joke". Slightly aggressive, but very funny imho:

How many Eve players does it take to change a lightbulb?

What do Minmatar engineers call duct tape?

Ricdic, CEO of 'EBank', infamously siphoned 200 billion ISK to fund real-life expenses, exposing vulnerabilities in player-run banks within EVE's economy.

Why did the bank robbers use pens instead of guns? They wanted to make their point without causing a ruckus.

Why does the capsuleer carry a chair in space?

"What's your name?"
"Mr. Smith"
"20,000 years later, and people still call themselves 'Mr. Smith' when they want to remain anonymous"
"Or my name is actually Mr. Smith"
"Doesn't make any difference to me. You could call yourself Elena Gazky for all I care."

-Clear Skies. I died laughing when he said that.

"30 million for ten jumps? That's amazing! Which means..."
"It's a death trap."

-Also Clear Skies. It captures the nature of EVE players so concisely
