Look, it's Ephemeron!
How to PVP: 1. buy ISK with GTCs, 2. fit cloak, learn aggro mechanics, 3. buy second account for metagaming

I challenge anyone to admit to an epic fail that beats the one I pulled:
I took a 3 billion isk deadspace fitted Nightmare into pvp and I lost it. The best part is I didn't intend for it to go down. What surprises me in retrospect is I'm glad I got punished for the idiocy of my actions. Before now I thought I was the kind of player who'd throw a tantrum and rage-quit over a stunt like that, but it turns out I love that I'm playing a game that punishes you for playing with the most expensive toys.
If anyone from the opposing fleet reads this thread, I salute you. You earned my stuff!
Well listen to my epic fails.
Once after a long pvp session i was in Malediction interceptor. We had gone for a roaming gang thing. We had some nice fights and i had managed to get into some killmails... In the end of the day i really had that feeling of being untouchable and i was praying to find another victim to make a solo kill this time so to add a finishing touch to the excellent day. Anyway... on my way back towards Badivefi while traveling through 00 systems i notice a shuttle being at 12km from the gate probably he was on autopilot or something. Immediatly i engage it... start open web and scram and going near it to pound it with rockets and all of a sudden i get 1 hit getting to structure! I went like WTF? Watched my overview...hell it was just me and the freaking shuttle. Who the hell shot me?! 
In the meantime i get hit second time and i remain in pod. Then i realise i am into a low sec system so it was the gate guns 
So i managed to engage a shuttle on an interceptor and end up dead making the epic fail Interceptor vs Shuttle: Shuttle wins  |

If you wanna lose a lot more than that in 5 seconds and still for some reason think your happy, stand in front of an alter and say "I do"

When I lost my 2bil inty and snake clone in what was probably the most epic 20minute long dogfight, I was the happiest person on EVE.
Sometimes isk loss means nothing if the conditions you lost it in was totally worth it.

I did this too, but it was NPCing in empire, shot an out of corp buddies wreck by mistake. 5 seconds wasn't in it.
Fail!
My mate can beat this. Missioning in a golem + basilisk, both in different corps. He accidently puts a TP on the basilisk and gets concordokken, but, to make things hilarious, the basilisk was still shield xfering him when he had a GCC so the basilisk got concordokken aswell.
I think you've just won the thread, congrats.

Oh lord, that's both amazing and amusing. I bet it wasn't funny at the time, though!

Yeah...
Every pvper dreams of flying that super faction fitted navy raven/mega/whatever filled to the brim with faction ammo and fittings.
The problem however is, its not that faction ships suck, its that players target them just to target them just to take them from you lol. There could be 100 other better targets on the field but you will be primary if your flying something flashy haha.
So for what they cost the pvper could buy 5 more ships that they might loose as quick cause the other dude flying the faction ship will make primary before them.
I hate it cause I really like the nightmare, and I wanna fly one in pvp so bad, but the price is just crazy and I would loose it...
Congrats man!
Welcome to pvp, convo me some time if you need a better lesson!
