That's pretty funny. I got randomly teleported once--I exited my C4 into the C2 static and instead appeared next to the B274 to high. Completely bypassed an entire system. |

I once had a haunted Thanatos like that in my POS, left floating from an old member of the corp. No one else could pilot it, so it just hung in the forcefield.
When my corp joined a new alliance (i.e. began our own), I spent half a hour bumping it just outside the force field in preparation for the change-over, so it wouldn't get catapulted into deep space after downtime. After downtime, however...it was back in its old spot, as if it had never left.
"Christine" took on a life of her own and started taking day trips after that. Sometimes I'd find it a few grids over, coasting at 3k/s and enjoying the scenery. But every day at downtime, it'd be exactly in the same spot in the FF where it had floated for months before. I never changed the POS password, so I'm not really sure on what days the database decided it was due for a Sunday drive, or why it'd return with a new coat of polish.
Eventually I got a friend who could pilot Thannies to store it in an SMA and tame its wayward ways. Later, when we sold the system, we handed the keys over to the new tenants.
I sometimes wonder how the new residents are fairing with the spirited vehicle, and if they ever find its engine inexplicably idling late at night. |

Our Thanny was a good 8km+ from any structure. Here's a pic:

And it always reappeared in EXACTLY the same spot and alignment, without variation. We guessed that the database kept reverting to an older set of numbers about where the carrier should be located. |
