Many moons ago I joined a corp and took my shiny CNR over for a look round the new area I would be in, went into a 0.4 which didn't worry me, I'd lived in lowsec for a while before and saw a ship miles away from the gate so I wasn't unduly worried, but then my ship started taking damage.
I just sat there gob-smacked as I got snipered never moved, a typical rabbit in the headlights moment. Never occurred to me to warp off, or go back to the gate. One CNR later the pirate couldn't understand why I hadn't moved and I was just "but how can he hit me from out there??" - then I learned some more about the game and different ships.
Oh and another oops and this has literally just happened, I'm taking a pos down cos I fancy a change of scenery and was taking down the ammo arrays and remembered a little too late that I should have left one of them up for a few days as there were 15k T2 scourge ham's cooking - oopsy. If I'd just offlined it it would be ok, but I'd unanchored and scooped the array before I remembered. |

I double jumped a HS WH polarizing myself on the WH side in a 2+ bil ISK proteus where I knew there were 5 BCs/T3s waiting for me. i was bleeding hull by the time my timer was up and I was able to jump out with 11% armour but it was easily the dumbest thing I've ever done. |

Doing a low sec roam with a bunch of friends, we had a couple of nice kills, and no losses due to my awesomeness as guardian pilot, we fly back to the station, and I thought I had docked up, went afk, to find that I'm sitting in my pod outside the station, as I was criminally flagged the guns had oblitorated me while I was afk.

This was back in the early days, September '03 IIRC. Just the previous day I got my first cruiser, a Vexor, and was happily mining with it in a belt to a jet can when an ore thief came along and snatched my ore. My decision to try and kill him with a smartbomb didn't quite work the way I though it would. :) I still remember the lol of the ore thief in local.

Educated a newbie that was hanging around a Customs Office in lowsec. Scrammed and webbed him, started a convo, explained scram + web mechanics. He scrammed be back and opened fire, so I wanted to show him how to break range and warp away...
I misclicked the planet and warped to the station. With a (pre-Retribution) criminal timer on me. In a Firetail.
I still recruited the guy though he's now the top-1 killer of my corporation, so it was worth the loss of a Faction frigate by far! |

Got a phone call from my aunt while flying my tengu into a level four mission I wasn't familiar with. Wanted to be a good nephew so I minimized the game and chatted with her for a few minutes about nothing. Looked back at the game and my tengu was gone. :D Bloody NPCs. |

this was my first or second month... just finished tutorial mission about probing.
Played with probes and found wormhole. Found it with my cruiser w/ probes. Reshipped to frigate. Entered and forgot to bookmark exit. Ok. Left the ship and self-destructed pod.
Took my cruiser and entered WH again. Found my frigate and parked cruiser next to it. Started to scan WH.... It was so interesting....
Few minutes after both of my ships and pod were killed by some gang right there |

I think my biggest 'oops', the loss of a faction pirate frigate, was probably also my personal greatest moment. While I have yet to get any PvP kills (it hasn't really been a subject of my efforts yet) a wardec with another corp saw me acting as a gate scout. I warped to a safe spot on rid near a gate but over 150km away in my Succubus where we thought the enemy would be, and lo, there they were, seven of them, so in a moment of panic seeing so many of them, I warped out as quickly as I could.
But my corp wanted me to get ship types, so back I went, and got a screenshot of my overview, then warped out again. I reported all enemy ships, and the FC told our cruiser fleet to warp in and nab 'em. I decided to go through the gate, but instead of warp to zero, I warped back to my safe near the gate... where all seven enemy frigates were waiting for me and scrammed me before I could blink.
Unfortunately, I hesitated... I was still trying to warp away when they started shooting me. I should not have hesitated, cuz I might have got the kill otherwise. I targeted the closest five and started laying into the Ares that was scramming me. All seven ships were hitting me, but my shield tank held... just long enough for me to strip most of the Ares hull, before I was 'sploded by a Fed Navy Comet with rails. It was not a cheap loss, but we live and learn, and I don't care enough about isk for the value of the loss to matter that much. The rest of my corp arrived a few moments before I 'sploded, alerted by a member who had arrived a little early and seen them lay into me. They bolted when our Dominix showed up, but the corp managed to kill a Daredevil (I think it was a Daredevil, can't remember atm, but I know it was one of their faction ships, so it was a faction loss for a faction loss).
Probably my biggest woops and so far, best moment ever simultaneously. 7v1 and I ALMOST got a kill You don't scare me. I've been to Jita. |

Biggest oops ever was slightly out of EVE. Got jumped with amorous partner aggro in the middle of a roam. Made excuses, docked up, and proceeded to have vocal relations.
My computer sits on a stand near my bed.
I left teamspeak on.
It was set to "activate on voice".
According to my then corpmates, my microphone is REALLY clear...
BONUS STORY! Said partner was in an EVE playing phase for awhile. Went purely miner/industrial. I was all yarr pirate. We'd made it house rules to not even know each others char names, to avoid arguments.
Scanned down a nice big mining op in lowsec. Gathered up my corpies, jumped over, had a merry old time decimating mining fleet.
In the other room, I hear a keyboard slam on the floor and a string of curses. "Hey what's wrong babe?" "Some stupid MFin ********* ******** *********** pirates just ganked my hulk!" 315 4 CSM8! |

There's a few, PVE in a expensive tengu whilst pissed, never going to end well.
My favorite is:
Bought a Anathema kitted it all out with sister stuff thinking to myself I shall bag a couple of ratters doing low sec missions. What can go wrong I thought to myself!
Anyway dropped my probes off scan and warped myself to a safe and started to probe. Noticed someone was doing the same thing as me so carried on.
All the time thinking to myself some poor rube is going to get it in a couple of minutes "muawahhhahah"
Got tunnel vision looking at the scan screen and 2 mins later I looked at a mail that had just arrived " We are saddened by your loss of your ship..."
I was like "WTF??" then I realised although I had warped to the safe I hadn't actually cloaked. Karma is a ***** as they say.. God Said "Come Forth and receive eternal life!" I came fifth and won a toaster. |

More of a newbie fails here during my EVE early days:
1) I think it was still during my trial period i finaly after "days of grinding" bought me shiny new Catalyst! Having a Dessie after a week of playing was BIG back in those days. Well i undocked and seen this guy in space in a Megathron. He was shown yellow and had black skull on overview. He must be a BAD GUY! I fired my gunz...
2) After like 3 months in EVE i put ALL my salvage and expensive loot i gained up until then into a hauler and set autopilot to Jita. I was in HI-Sec! What could have possibly gone wrong? Needless to say my loot was unvoulentarily unloaded in Sivala with help of local Brutix. |

Not my 'oops' moment, but I was in a BS fleet once in lowsec, we were about to agress on a gate when we got a carrier dropped on us. FC commanded us not to agress and jump the gate into hisec, guy in a Paladin didn't catch the 'don't agress' bit.
Bye bye 1 billion (at the time) Isk ship. Some CONCORD Captain must have been bragging to the entire officer's mess about his killmail that night. |

This one time at pirate camp....
I was afk at a gate and a mammoth shows up autopiloting through low sec...
Another time a pod came rolling on auto pilot...
Pirate camp was so fun.
Then there was this time I went to rep a corp mate in front of a station... I learned stations didn't like people assisting "criminals".
Of course the mistake of being in hisec and seeing all these ships flying around without a care in the world.

Bought a 1 billion isk Warp scrambler II because I had so much money I couldn't be arsed to pay attention to the number of zeros behind it.
Attempting to do a 10/10 with two other corpies in remote rep Armageddons. Didn't work out too well when I ended up DCing in the last room.
I don't know, I think most of my screw ups have been fairly minor in three years of playing now. |

I was in an Amarr cosmos complex and had a string of bad rolls hacking a can. I didn't realize the rats in there could actually, y'know... hurt me, and I got distracted by a TV show while my codebreaker (analyzer? I forget which) cycled.
When I looked back, I was in structure and scrammed. Similarly; I over aggro'd an L4, got scrammed and webbed, and couldn't kill the @#$&$%^ frigate rats fast enough. Went down cursing at myself. Tell someone you love them today, because life is short. But scream it at them in Esperanto, because life is also terrifying and confusing.

First time I played EVE. First day, first hour. Message in local at the station "Hey, can outside with free stuff for newbies". We all know how that ends. That was mistake 1. Mistake 2 was ragequitting and not trying to play again for about a year. Glad I finally came back though. |

In a low-sec system playing station games with another corp. We are having a good 'ol time docking and undocking . Our scout on the high sec side of a gate comes on TS and says "uh guys how did that Obelisk make it through the system'.

Loaded up an Arazu full of implants and other small-but-expensive items, close to a billions worth, with the aim of shipping them out to null to make a tasty profit. Logged in directly after downtime, and moved with a purpose..... directly into a bubbled death-camp. Not even my desperate cloaked evasion patterns could counter the sheer amount of swirling deployed drones......
