Well this was my last reply here, fly safe. well if you feel that bad look at the list of players and look what they lost and your 300 mil will seem like chump change ok i have heard stories of people losing billions durning burn jita ok and you are bitching about 300 mil really now
you just need to give up on life because it is not fair and you need to be smart about it and try to have fun any way you look at it you will die or lose money in eve so really now just stop your tears and grow the **** up |

i am jumping ship now, after a month of play. got ganked and podded in 0.5 and lost my implants, all my fault it seems. Mining in an asteroid belt obviously offended some guy who decided to pod me too. lost all of my implants that i was using to get training done, +4s. really have no incentive or drive to even boot eve up again.
Anyway, the few tears that i am sharing here hopefully will feed some of you and its not such a waste of time if someone gets something out of it. but i am jumping ship now after 1 month because this sort of "pvp" and griefing gameplay just isnt for me.
maybe some real pvp does go on out there. but when i dont even have one skill at level 5 and i am being ganked by people in tech 3 cruisers who have been playing a year.
i have to ask myself wether i was just too late finding eve and that this game really hasnt got much to offer people after a year of playing the game.
cya guys, nice chatting with you and thanks to all those who helped in rookie / help channels. |

I find it totally untolarable, that 3 1 mill Isk ships can easily gank my tanked 300mill hull. Sorry, but this makes me really sad. It put me out of business for good, that was my last money. Your cool event just cost CCP a subscriber.
Yes tears are delightful, yadda, yadda, no stuff is to be had, because it all exploded.
Ok this guy is crying over losing one hulk and then giving up the game. man i know i have laid down some tears here and also opened my mouth and caught hell over it more then once, but yet i am still here and the event that goon is doing hell if you did your home work and researched you would know what is going on in the game, it is stated here in the forums all the time. and really that puts me at another point, if you can not afford to insure the ship then do not fly it i mean really now if you buy a ship and you can not even afford to put the basic insurance on it then you should not be flying it at all and if you are then you should lose it for being stupid.
more over if i could could the cost of isk i have lost in ships do to being ganked and running missions and other stuff i do it would be in the billions or i think closer to the trillions i mean in one shot i lost a billion worth of tech 3 ships and mods during burn jita, and i am not crying about it.
so if you want safe or a game that you can not die in then to and hang out with all the other pussies on world of warcraft and hide under your mothers skirt. because eve is for the big boys and girls of gaming.
more over you need to be smart about how you do things in this game. like i aid it before if you can not afford to fly it then do not fly it and if you can not insure it after you fully fit it then you should not be flying it either. rule of thumb is if you have at least enough to insure it then you can fly it
for all the ones that have been on the game a while might agree with me on that.
but if you cry in the forums then just let it out there are people here with tear buckets for you to cry in

The obvious solution is for highsec miners to start mining in Domi's.
Also, how the hell can you own a Hulk and NOT have at least one Covetor gathering rust in your hanger bay?

You shouldn't quit over this loss (a Retriever?). The implants do hurt, but there are ways to avoid losing expensive ones like that.
If you need some pointers, open up a chat channel with me or send me a mail. I'd prefer new players not quit because new players mean a better EVE community down the road. It hurts to lose ships and to get podded, but it is part of the game, and it is a very good thing for the economy. Learning how to deal with losses and to avoid dying will simply allow you to move ahead faster.
Best,
Ristlin

Heh, poor example. That 5k boat is piloted by someone who then dies, being unable to repeat the process. In eve there is no penalty except for that $5k as things stand. A balance issue I would like to see addressed ;P (while i agree with pple complaining about the risk/reward factor being so low for pirates in low sec, I'm not defending the OP who I think is just crying). |

Hi complete newb player here. I know my input means didly but us noobs are broke and need space euros.
Why not hire us noobs waiting on our training skills to evolve beyond destroyers to come protect your big hulk hogans? For a modest fee I am sure you could hire a noob as a bodyguard to watch your hulkster. I am sure a noob would guard you for a reasonable rate. Rookie help chat is spammed all the time with people begging for money. We might not be that much of a help but maybe buy you enough time to make it back to safety and save your ship and its items and cargo.
Or maybe join a corporation and have your guild members help you?
I don't think crying and quitting ever solved anything. This is supposed to be one of the most challenging MMO's in existence so maybe this isn't a game for you if you quit because it is aggressive. One thing is for sure there are no space pandas that I have seen so far. Hell people tried to trick me into getting killed the very first time I undocked from the space station doing my first tutorial just trying to learn to pilot my ship. Telling me to get the free items in the yellow crates. It was like a baby seal trying to dodge club hunters. I wasn't in Kansas anymore. Isn't that one of the main selling points of this game though? Relentless and brutal? |

Just like when a woman gets raped it's not her fault. It's the rapist's. Cuz he did it. Even if you leave your door unlocked. Even if you passed out drunk at a party. It is still the criminal's fault. Cuz they did it. This is why victims are never punished for the crimes they are victim to. Imagine the outcry if people went to prison for not locking their doors because they were judged to be "accomplices". I mean, after all, if they'd locked their door the thief would have never been able to commit that crime, right? It's not the thief's fault - he's just doing what thieves do, drawn by an "irresistible urge" to enter unguarded houses and pilfer them. Now, I know some idiot is going to mention "tank your Hulk". People are ganking Orca's. Orca's have a wee little bit more EHP than a tanked Hulk. If Orca's aren't safe, then neither are tanked Hulk's. Now, could he have done things to prevent the gank? Absolutely. Does that mean he's "at fault" for the gank? Absolutely not.
Wrong. It would be yours. You have the responsibility to be aware of your surroundings at all times. It's on YOU to possibly see danger and adjust accordingly. It is not the fault of the person that decided his career choice was to take from others to meet his needs/wants. When that individual goes to prison or is killed, or dies of an overdose, THAT is his fault. It is your choice to live in la la land as if everything is fine. It is also not the fault of your local Police or Government that you were robbed. There is no way possible to put eyes on 300+ million people 24/7, and not to mention it's against good moral Judgement to do so. Take some responsibility for yourself and your choices.
Eve is not real life. I am not a criminal in real life, I am a veteran of the U.S. Military and have done Police work since. I will never run out of work to do, because people will always take from others. But it truly amazes me how much I see crimes committed that could have been nullified by an aware victim. |

You play for weeks on ends and don't get killed and I just have to log in to be blown up?

News for you buddy, 3 *1 mil isk ships cannot gank a tanked hulk. In fact 3 t2 catalysts wont kill a tanked hulk either. Your hull clearly wasn't tanked. A tanked hulk has 30k ehp, 40k ehp if you have the foresight to have a gang bonus. Assuming one catalyst is jammed by those ecm drones you dropped they really need 5 t2 catalysts to kill you. |

When is your last reply?
Was that it?
Can we expect more?
I agree with you completely and empathise. With this in mind, can I have your isk and ships?

I mine too and you just have to be careful. Mining ships are supposed to be getting a buff soon anyways.
Many gankers do it for one reason... To get their jollys off seeing you get all worked up. I bet your forum post alone has encouraged many to keep doing it.

I don't find Hulkageddon to be amoral bullying, but what I DO dislike about is - lazyness. Kamikaze destroyers just can't be bothered to scan down mission runners, coordinate a fleet for big enough alpha or beliebable bait, etc ... It's much easier to just warp in belt and target the first guy in mining barge. |

OP: It never occured to you to hire an escort to protect your 300M Isk investment while it flew through rat-space? I'm pretty sure you could hire an effective guard for 10% of your take. That's how people protect their investments IRL. Sounds to me like you're angry at yourself for not effectively protecting your investment while simultaneously not diversifying your portfolio enough to bounce back from its loss. You put all your eggs in one basket then didn't even bother to be careful about how you carried them. If you didn't learn from this then I feel sorry for your economic outlook IRL. |

okay, if you haven't poisoned the pool of potential corps with your whining. find a null sec corp with sov and go there and mine. you will NOT have the false sense of security you obviously have in hisec. you will make way more isk. You will need to work on some useful nellsec skills but you will be mining with your corp and you will lose fewer ships. I have lost way more ships in hi and lo sec than in null. |
